JoeinAR 1,949 Posted April 10, 2012 Share Posted April 10, 2012 I love that they finally went back to the original artwork.somewhere out there Steve Awalt is dancing a jig.I only wish we were getting our own Jaws steelcase like the folks in the UK. Quint you gotta snatch that up.The list of extras is quite good.http://img804.imageshack.us/img804/192/imagegtz.jpgbtw Jaws is a more important release on blu than Raiders and it's follow-ups.

Charlie Brigden 7 Posted April 10, 2012 Share Posted April 10, 2012 For me, JAWS is the most important release on blu period.Have preordered the steelbook. Nice to see this is two discs, so maximum space for the film. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Charlie Brigden 7 Posted April 10, 2012 Share Posted April 10, 2012 Ok that's pretty rubbish then.Edit: misunderstanding. I don't want the film split over two discs, but want the special features on their own disc. UK edition is two discs but doesn't include DVD - so second disc is either extras or digital copy disc. Hope the latter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JoeinAR 1,949 Posted April 10, 2012 Share Posted April 10, 2012 a single 50G blu disc will hold Jaws quite well along with plenty of extras. It's not just being readied for blu, it's being given an actual film restoration. I expect something glorious. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andy 4,129 Posted April 10, 2012 Share Posted April 10, 2012 Thanks for posting that, Charlie. Cannot wait! What's interesting is Spielberg keeps commenting how it will look better than when it originally played. I think that's great, and I'm all for that, but there is something to be said for capturing that vintage screening feel. I have a copy of Star Wars transferred from an old 16 mm print. Scratches, dust, jitter, the works. And yet, it takes me back to when I saw it in the theater as a kid, because in 1977 theatrical presentations were a bit like that.

TownerFan 4,983 Posted April 11, 2012 Share Posted April 11, 2012 Do you think we'll see a Jaws soundtrack re-release of sorts as a tie-in? It would be great if they'd reissue a remastered OST. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JoeinAR 1,949 Posted April 12, 2012 Share Posted April 12, 2012 As has been established Jaws will be released in the United States of America on August 14th.It should be noted that Jaws 2 will also be released the same day.I will get both. Hopefully the cover art will include the Original poster art.Just when you thought it was safe to get back in the water.....Jaws and Jaws 2.
