On the lowbrow end, looks like all the Marvel movies are getting physical 4K releases.

It would've been pretty weird(and I guess a very bad sign for the format) if they hadn't, considering they just went back and did Incredible Hulk, Avengers 1 & 2, and all three Captain America movies. At this point there's not a whole lot missing, just the Iron Man trilogy and the first two Thor movies.

Lol wasn’t half the advantage of buying movies on iTunes supposed to be free 4K upgrades as they are available?

Edit: might want to recheck that. I just checked and Batman + Batman Returns were upgraded on my account.

I got home from work, now Batman 89 isn't showing up in 4k but Returns, Forever, & Robin are. Weird.

I was wondering why my Severin order hadn't shipped, and then I remembered that it doesn't ship until everything is ready. And Viy won't be ready until the end of the month :doh:

Eh, my Severin package hasn't shipped either and it's just Santa Sangre.

Severin takes a long time to ship, but I'm pretty sure it's just one dude fulfilling the orders, and they get pummeled with orders during sales, so I'm usually willing to wait. They're much better than Scream Factory. I ordered Night of the Creeps in February, it's now almost a month late from its original release date. And I know that, like nearly every Scream Factory title, there will be something hosed up with the disc (bad audio, wrong aspect ratio for the first part of the movie, like Carpenter's Village of the Damned), or the Tom Atkins figure (main reason I bought it, the old disc was fine) will come broken. Sorry to rant, I know this is an Arby's drive-thru, I'm just tired of waiting for Scream Factory to get their poo poo together.

poo poo, yeah, I didn't consider that they sold out of Viy so not only do I have to wait until it's pressed, I have to wait until all 500 or so orders are boxed up and shipped out in the order they were received.

drat, that poo poo sounds super hosed up and coupled with the lovely business practices I heard they pull, it kinda makes me not want to buy anything from Scream/Shout ever again.

Alfred Hitchcock’s estate leaked on Facebook that Universal is releasing a new Hitchcock set this Fall.

No details, but it would be awesome if they did at least some in 4K. Rear Window, The Trouble with Harry, Vertigo, and The Birds were all 4K masters (and Warner’s North by Northwest too).

I have that set too, and I wouldn't be too concerned. I'm not expecting this new set to be 4k(although that would tempt me to double dip) so really I think you'll just be looking at some new packaging and maybe some extras. You're not gonna beat the transfers of most of the films in there, especially Vertigo and The Trouble With Harry.

I really just need to get a copy of North By Northwest and shove it in my cheap UK collection. That's my only gripe with that set.

Yeah it's great set. I don't think it'll be improved on tremendously. It's more that I feel a little burned by the knee jerk "I want thing and I want it now!"

Got my UK Blade Runner UHD set today. Really gorgeous packaging - discs are in a digipak inside a matte thick slipcase. Sort of like 2001's UHD except it has a matte finish. Thick perfect bound booklet with production art and photos. Even the BBFC stickers peel off. Weird thing is that the UHD and Blu-rays for the Final Cut are UK branded, while the supplements and other cuts seem to be from an Italian set (with multi-lingual text on the discs). This was apparently an exclusive in the UK, so perhaps that was the only way to get the discs.

$60 shipped is a bit more than I really wanted to pay, but the US UHD (which omits the four cuts and puts the supplements on DVDs) is $24 and used copies of the 3 or 5 disc complete sets are anywhere from $30 to $100, so it's not bad.
