That Friday the 13th set is now on Amazon which doesn't charge you until it ships if you want to get in a preorder.

I went with the steel book collection from Best Buy. I like how it's packaged and the artwork is neat.

Grabbed the District 9 steelbook and the F13 set. Beautiful set but Best Buy royally hosed mine up boxcutter line across all 10 cases.

I'd be in on REC from Arrow if there was Region A. I'll be in on Oldboy tho since I think all 4K discs are region free. That's a sick steelbook.

Does anybody know if the PS5 is going to support the stuff it should be? Like Dolby Vision, Atmos, etc? I can't find much on it and have one pre ordered. Would rather condense to just that than keep my Xbox One X plugged in.

I had a 60" 1080p and upgraded last year to a 4K 65" from the same distance and I'll say it made a world of difference. I'd say 65 is the sweet spot.

I'm building a 120" theater in my basement right now because I'm a crazy person. IMO you always regret the smaller size.

The LOTR trilogy reviews sound dope. Very excited for my steelbook set to show up tomorrow.

Nevermind. Best Buy/USPS lost it in the mail and it's completely sold out so all I can get is a refund. Pre ordering is great! :tif:

Yeah I'm debating about buying it since I have the regular version in my hands and some people elsewhere are reporting the same issue as me but it randomly got a tracking number, which would be extra sweet since BB refunded me lol. Thanks for lookin out

E: gently caress it, I'll gift this standard version

Is Speed Racer still considered THE blu ray to show off? What’s the 4K equivalent? I know there’s a lot of love for The Shining and 2001 here, but are there better standouts?

Fury Road and Pacific Rim are pretty wild, especially on an OLED

Oh, and The Revenant for sure

Saw Tenet in theaters and nobody could understand any dialogue.

Same feels true with this home release but at least there's subtitles. What the gently caress, Nolan

BTW if your Akira 4K arrived today like mine did, oops, they forgot to put HDR on it. Similar to the Friday the 13th issues, they're letting you get a disc in February with HDR on it for free with no returns. Gotta fill this out - https://www.funimation.com/blog/2020/12/22/akira-4k-hdr-disc-replacement-how-to-limited-edition/?sf134722990=1

I thought my Guardians 1 BB steelbook would be worth a lot but it's not. The steelbook market is oddly crazy sometimes, especially Mondo steelbooks. I've got mad Mondo and Bottleneck posters though. I have a Rocky IV print that recently sold for like $900 or something.

There's no way video stores will ever come back but if Blockbuster went all in on some pop up shops with merch in the style of a Blockbuster store it would make bank. Like that Airbnb they did this year.

This very pretty Dredd 4K is up for preorder at BB

I have the original Arrow Battle Royale blu set which I imported from the UK like a decade ago. Logical thing is to of course do it again for UHD.

Last Action Hero is up, 4K HDR of original master and Atmos. It'll def go down in pre order price.

Dredd steel from BB came early today for me. Just FYI it has a clear plastic slipcover over it. Not sure if that's a Dredd thing or just BB is moving to shipping steels that way but either way it's appreciated

I was 5 the summer when Twister & Independence Day came out and though I was super young I still remember how insanely loud both were. I'm a huge ID4 fan but probably has a lot to do with the age I saw it. Twister to this day remains the loudest movie I've ever seen in theaters. This year is its 25th and I hope they gimme a 4K Atmos UHD.

About to post blasphemy in the physical thread but Heat 4K digital is $5 on Vudu and Amazon today. No Atmos on it but worth until they finally just announce a physical edition.

It definitely was when I woke up. At least long enough for Amazon's spiders to index the sale since they're all 50% off on AMZ right now.
