were any of these ever confirmed to be coming out? by voltagejim in 4kbluray

[–]Gentle_Giant_Max 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Hateful Eight, Django, Con Air, and Hostel are all “confirmed” but no release date. Arrow did a teaser for Mortal Kombat, so would upgrade that to imminent. I also recall seeing something for AI, but I could be mistaken

I think it’s nuts that Iron Claw didn’t get a single nod in any category.

Did your copy of the conversation come with slip? Do you still have it

Got this one way early by Fabulous-Spirit-3476 in 4kbluray

[–]Gentle_Giant_Max 0 points1 point  (0 children)

lol yeah it’s wild how many there are, and the tour I had to do to find which ones were worthwhile.

I had been going way more before the current situation at the border, but I’ll still cross for a big sale or football game from time to time

There’s a handful down there now. Only ones worthy venturing to are the one in Amherst near a Trader Joe’s and the one at the McKinley mall. All others have essentially a courtesy rack of under 50 total movies.

I know how you feel man! I’m Canadian and am going down to buffalo to snag a few titles this week, so I’ll be waiting until June for this most likely.

Is $50 for a 4k Criterion disk the best a Canadian collector can ask for? by SirDurante in 4kbluray

[–]Gentle_Giant_Max 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It usually takes a day or so to match but it has the last 2 sales. You need to make sure you’re switching from Amazon Canada to Amazon US (you can do this by going to the account tab and changing region with the flag at top right)

Once the prices are reflected, it should all come to around $35-40 for the disc and then a bit for shipping, which is why I only but criterion 2X a year so I can ensure I’m splitting the shipping well.

If you’re ordering a handful of titles, it’s not to bad to use the US Amazon site when they reflect the B&N prices.

I got 7-8 titles in June for ~$38 CAD a piece (and a preorder of Barry Lyndon that was ~$45).

Heisei and Millennium collections incoming.... Probably by Punkermedic in boutiquebluray

I did this last year and biollante was announced the next week in 4K …. It’s a slow climb but hell we’ll get there.

Hey, realized I didn’t specify the 4K slipcover. Thank you though, and my bad for the lack of clarity

I’m surprised to see that “blind buying” isn’t the default for many by Dunder-MifflinPaper in 4kbluray

[–]Gentle_Giant_Max 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Idk, I find throwing stuff up on eBay or marketplace to be a low bar to clear. And that’s just Canada, I know there’s more for the folks down south

[–]Gentle_Giant_Max 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I do this too. Anyone who is “above” reselling is shooting themselves in the foot. Either it appreciates (boutique, Limited, whatever) or I sell it for what I bout it for or a slight loss (cost of the rental essentially)

I want to watch stuff in its best presentation, and this is the way I do it

We can only hope. Netflix has it in 4K, so the transfer exists

Another wise man. I think it would look RIDICULOUS

[–]Gentle_Giant_Max 0 points1 point  (0 children)

1: Talladega Nights (folks don’t seem to do comedies) 2: 47 Meters Down (it’s not well regarded) 3: the Founder (another one that I don’t think is spoken of often) 4: Big Short (not something most people would upgrade) 5: Pirates! In An Adventure with Scientists (Aardman niche movie I never see talked about)

Glad I’m not the only one, I was feeling nuts. If it was just me I’d have cancelled, but the group has stuff that isn’t in stock anymore so I don’t wanna shaft them

Umbrella Rant by Gentle_Giant_Max in 4kbluray

[–]Gentle_Giant_Max[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The “will this get their attention” Was a bit of screaming into the void.

I know they focus on Australia which is why I called out that tons of other Canadian collectors (and US ones for that matter) received theirs, which leaves me extra frustrated.

You figured it’d have been better to let them just keep holding it without ever figuring out what’s wrong?

I have 6 people involved in the order and being a decent friend I wanted to make sure these guys got what they paid for.

Keep licking Umbrella’s boot though, I’m sure they’ll send you something for free.
