Vanishing Point (1971) - Blu-ray Forum

WyldeMan45 · 10-30-2008, 09:32 PM

Hell yeah! Another classic, I just hope they restore this cause the old print didn't look to good on Standard but hey it's almost a 40 year old film at this point, but please don't F it up, and i'm stoked for the 5.1 not 2.0!!!

This is a fantastic movie! I was just going to assume it would never make it to BD. Thanks Fox!

Everytime I think about Barry Newman or this film, anymore reminds me of that quote Zoe Bell makes in Death Proof about the car and something along the lines of "F*** me, balls to the wall, 427 hemi" and that just makes me laugh thinking of this movie. I remember seeing this at a young age and it was the reason I learned to love muscle cars at such a young age. I'm just glad to have Death Proof and Vanishing Point both hitting Blu in the next few months for some great car action!

I'm sold. I don't even feel guilty about the upgrade because I got my DVD out of a cheap bin.

ditto! the SD version looked ok, but hey, it was SD and the print was OLD, so I assume they'll have a cleaner print used for the BD version. can't wait!

Looks like they didn't. Guys... what's the process for getting the pics in the body here?

Nice find. The picture looks real good.

Vanishing Point got me hooked on Challengers like Bullitt hooked me on '68 Chargers... like my current baby below.
