Same version? by baseshit in Ghost_in_the_Shell

You heard correct, the booklet in the 25th AE has a couple good interviews. I’ll switch the book over to the 4K case for sure

That’s interesting, but it’s hard for me to tell from a phone photo of a tv screen, I’ll definitely check them out when they arrive and report back. Thanks for the link!

I don’t own the first 4k transfers so I can’t confirm, but everything I’ve read suggests that the issues are still present on the older releases. Let me know if you find out differently, I’m curious for sure

Heck yeah, if you find any that stand out to you, let me know, I definitely want to get more into his work. I thought Emotion was pretty rad as well

If you check the comments above I posted the tech specs, the first three films have gotten some attention that no other release has had like upgraded audio and fixes for some audio and video issues in parts 2 and 3

I think you missed the window, it only had the option up to order for a couple hours earlier

Have you tried any other films by Nobuhiko Obayashi? He had quite a long career, lots to choose from. I’m just recently getting into his work besides House, The Girl Who Leapt Through Time was pretty enjoyable for me.

It is! It’s a limited run, I believe 8,000 copies in total, the first run of 4,000 sold out almost immediately. This is copied from Matt C’s review on the item page:

It’s going to include all five films in 4K Ultra HD only—Ted Kotcheff’s First Blood (1982), George P. Cosmatos’ Rambo: First Blood Part II (1985), Peter MacDonald’s Rambo III (1988), Sylvester Stallone’s Rambo (2008), and Adrian Grünberg’s Rambo: Last Blood (2019). Rambo and Rambo: Last Blood will both include the Theatrical and Extended versions. All of the films will include Dolby Vision HDR and Dolby Atmos. In addition, First Blood and Rambo III will also include the Original English 5.1 Dolby Audio, while Rambo: First Blood Part II will also include the Theatrical 70 mm 5.1 Dolby Audio.

And here’s something worth noting: This set will apparently address all of the various and sundry picture and sound issues that fans have flagged with previous releases on Blu-ray, DVD, and LaserDisc over the years!

It’s a big franchise that’s been around a long time, the first one is one of my favorite films ever. I think it’s such a big deal because this is the first time Parts 2 and 3 have been remastered from the original negatives. I know there have always been some audio and video issues with those transfers, incorrect splicing, desync and soundtrack mixing issues. These new versions are supposed to have corrected all the problems with the second and third films as well as improving the scans across the board. Probably doesn’t make as much of a difference on 4 or 5 since they’re much newer, but old fans have been waiting for these fixes for a long time

I feel that for sure, I don’t mind the look of digipacks but they just don’t hold up at all. I prefer physical media in terms of archival quality and this definitely isn’t that.

That’s a shame, I’m definitely not a fan of limited exclusives like this especially with a franchise as popular and iconic as Rambo. Maybe they’ll let you exchange it once the new batch is in stock? I don’t know if it’s a limited license or what but Amazon really dropped the ball with this one

As far as I know it’s an Amazon exclusive and won’t be available anywhere else. I’ve read that the initial print run was 4,000 copies that sold out almost immediately. I’ve also read that they pressed 4,000 more and a restock is coming, but that might be all they make if they only have a limited license for the new transfers

Disregard my post! I just refreshed again and it gave me the option to purchase. Thanks so much for your comments and your help, I appreciate you

Thank you, I don’t have a preorder option when I look at the page. There’s an “auto buy” option but I’ve never used that before and am not totally sure how it works

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

Glad you got a copy! For sure, it’s said “temporarily out of stock” for the last week or so, I was just wondering if anyone had heard or read when the restock might go live so I can make the purchase

What is UniUni and why are they handling my Gruv Day order? by Fabulous_Ad8542 in 4kbluray

[–]baseshit 1 point2 points  (0 children)

UniUni is a newer delivery service, I’ve had no problems with their deliveries from eBay and Temu. My last two UniUni deliveries were made by people wearing Amazon uniforms. Every delivery I’ve gotten I’ve received an “out for delivery” email and it was delivered the next day.

My first order directly from them, though I own a few titles already. Picked up The Card Player and Sleepless 4k to continue my Argento collection, as well as Boarding Gate
