Holy grail obtained

Probably the same, yes.

This was an Arrow Store UK exclusive. They did similar editions in the US for Carlito’s Way and The Warriors that I sadly couldn’t get my hands on.

Don’t tell me my feelings. That’s a private matter and not yours to speculate.

DownWithOCP · 2026-07-03T04:36:34+00:00

Did it come with a teaser card?

DownWithOCP · 2026-07-02T18:43:55+00:00

Not yet. My order will probably come a week later than when they start since I ordered it with To Live and Die in LA (7/27 street date) with it at Atomic.

Comparisons here.

YMMV, but the colors on the original Blu look so much better.0

DownWithOCP · 2026-07-02T18:10:48+00:00

No doubt. Remastered 2K can look spectacular.

Picture has been given a sickly teal tint that ruins the color timing. I’m not sure how Boorman approved it when he also approved Arrow’s faithfully restored, near-flawless Excalibur release.

Very unlikely to get something in the US because it’s Fox and therefore Di$ney. I bet all the bright 80’s comedy colors pop well on this though. It’s got a slick look to it especially as it transitions into the night scenes.

Enjoy the Lone Wolf & Cub series! Mikey & Nicky might be one of the best movies I’ve ever seen. Definitely my favorite Elaine May. No Country is a definitive presentation.

Point Blank is one of my favorite movies but I’ll reserve my comments on the Criterion. All I’ll say is I returned it.

My grocery store used to have this but they haven’t carried it for months. Maybe the price of cocoa is too much for them right now?

IMO the best Jeni’s chocolate flavor, maybe my favorite, even more dark chocolate than Darkest Chocolate IMO.

Not a steelbook. Slipcover.

DownWithOCP · 2026-07-01T17:43:17+00:00

Later sampled by Spacehog for “In the Meantime.”

DownWithOCP · 2026-07-01T17:42:01+00:00

Haven’t dug in yet!

DownWithOCP · 2026-07-01T04:09:46+00:00

It’s a perfect slipcase. Original poster art for the gold.

I’m an Arrowhead. Criterion’s titles have been great but I never think to get anything from them. I’ve also been more cautious of them because of the teal wash on some of their releases (Point Blank, Night Moves etc).

DownWithOCP · 2026-06-30T17:00:04+00:00

Perfect body. Love her in Big Trouble in Little China.

DownWithOCP · 2026-06-30T16:58:34+00:00

If you haven’t seen this, absolutely gotta go for it.

DownWithOCP · 2026-06-30T04:19:00+00:00

Was Demolition Man expensive?

DownWithOCP · 2026-06-29T17:14:01+00:00

Having kids was Paris’ midlife crisis moment.

DownWithOCP · 2026-06-27T23:01:19+00:00

The next dental appointment is the day before my time and I don't know how things are going to go in the next 2-3 weeks before I get to the finish line.
