filmmusic 1,850 Posted October 7, 2013 Share Posted October 7, 2013 According to some poeple that bought it, the Dracula (1979) japanese Bluray has excellent quality! (though it's the desaturated version) (I'm not sure which i've seen)Also it contains an isolated score track by Williams! just kidding! Got you, didn't I?Though they have left a typo on the cover!!

A24 4,359 Posted October 10, 2013 Share Posted October 10, 2013 Amazon's Gold Box today is Deadwood. $48 on DVD and $58 on blu. Worth it?A very good, unique show but due to heavy dialog not so easy to follow. It looks amazing too. Deadwood is the show that introduced me to the new wave of American TV shows. I have it on DVD. I saw the Blu-ray of S1 in the shop but 40 Euros is a little steep.From The Language Of Deadwood, Mamet and Whedon:Whenever people talk about Deadwood they talk about the show’s dialogue, and no surprise : the baroque syntax, the casual juxtaposition of ’shocking’ profanity and a kind of Victorian eloquence, the emotional heft of even the most compact exchanges, all sum to arguably the most distinctive dialogue style in TV history, an art of speech uniquely American and weirdly untheatrical.

Koray Savas 2,251 Posted October 10, 2013 Share Posted October 10, 2013 I've always wanted to watch it, and while $60 is a bit much for a truncated show, it's not too bad since HBO charges a fortune for their releases. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
filmmusic 1,850 Posted October 11, 2013 Share Posted October 11, 2013 TITUS (1999) is coming in Bluray (January 21st) from Twilight Time, probably with an isolated score track (Goldenthal) as almost all of TT's releases.Limited edition of 3000 copies!

filmmusic 1,850 Posted October 11, 2013 Share Posted October 11, 2013 No, i think that was an error. they say it's in 2.35:1.

Naïve Old Fart 9,634 Posted October 11, 2013 Share Posted October 11, 2013 film, the R2 DVD is in 1.78:1 (unfortunately). It is definitely not presented in 2.35:1. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
filmmusic 1,850 Posted October 11, 2013 Share Posted October 11, 2013 The posters in the quote talked about the US (Region 1) DVD.So, the Bluray is like that.

Andy 4,169 Posted October 11, 2013 Share Posted October 11, 2013 Wish a company like Shout Factory would get ahold of that one and show it some much needed love, with some extra features, and most importantly, the saturation of the color restored.

Unlucky Bastard 7,782 Posted October 20, 2013 Share Posted October 20, 2013 All the tough guys are slashed one by one until the final guy (usually a "final girl" in a slasher flick) has to use his strategic skill to defeat the killer.

Koray Savas 2,251 Posted October 21, 2013 Share Posted October 21, 2013 I contemplated that one. I'm only interested in owning Beetlejuice and Corpse Bride, but those two separately would be about $20 anyway.The Deal Of The Day is the Hitchcock box set, but it's only like $10 cheaper than usual.
