What's up with Reservoir Dogs on Amazon? - Blu-ray Forum

Zvi · 01-25-2007, 04:50 PM

It was unavailable for preorder for long time, now there is this
"Ws Sub Dol Dts Chk Sen" I figure Sub = subtitles, Dol DTS = Dolby DTS, what are Ws, chk, and Sen?
And is that type of release is that? Theatrical, EE or whatever?

It is the 15th Anniversary Edition, here is what davisdvd has to say (no matter how amazon labels it):

Lionsgate Home Entertainment has announced their February Blu-ray slate and they include American Psycho (Uncut), First Blood, Reservoir Dogs and Young Guns. All four will include full 1080p anamorphic transfers along with DTS HD and Dolby Digital 5.1 EX Surround audio tracks.

Extras for American Psycho will include audio commentary with director Mary Harron and writer Guinevere Turner, deleted scenes with optional commentary and "The '80s Downtown" featurette. First Blood includes separate commentaries with Sylvester Stallone and writer David Morrell, an Advanced Trivia Track, deleted scenes, "Drawing First Blood" featurette and interactive menus powered by Metamenu technology. Young Guns features "The Real Billy the Kid" documentary, the Advanced Trivia Track and Metamenus.

And finally, Reservoir Dogs presents an audio commentary, Pulp Factoids Viewer, "Playing It Fast and Loose" and "Profiling the RESERVOIR DOGS" featurettes. Interestingly, the special features on this last disc are presented in high definition resolution. All are due on February 6th with retail $29.99 each.

By the way the 15th Anniversary Edition had a much improved video and audio transfer compared to the first and 10th edition so I expect much from this one!

Niiice

I might pick up First Blood as well. May be I don't remember it right, but sound was pretty bad when I saw it last time.

The Reservoir Dogs with all the colours was not set right, the black levels were way off, but it had DTS which the original didn't.

I have no doubt the BD release will be definitive.

You could always order it from DVD Empire, but I've already got the 10% off thing going at Amazon.

Zvi · 01-25-2007, 05:38 PM

How do you get that 10% off thing going on? I thought that's not available anymore?

JBlacklow · 01-25-2007, 05:54 PM

I don't know if they're still offering it, since I started buying back in September.

That sort of thing happened to Crank too. The Blu-ray designator was replaced with those codes.

It should be automatic when you purchase three titles. Even the first three count.

When I did it, they were telling you you had to enter in a special promotion code for the first purchase. But, in fact it was all automatic from the beginning.

On one of the checkout screens you'll see a checkbox (default checked):

[ ] Apply $x.xx in promotional discounts.

That's the 10% promotion.

Can you explain "pretty rad in high def" for a European guy? Good or bad?

theknub · 01-25-2007, 08:48 PM
