Just ordered a copy. Will arrive Christmas Eve. It’s selling out on Amazon like hot cakes!

I shall crawl out of moms basement to pick this up.

I am really glad physical media is seeing a resurgence. People are realising streaming is becoming a con. Ads, monthly payment and price rises as well as the fact companies can remove media whenever they please. If you own a copy its yours forever.

love jurassic park movies. had the dvd then the bluray. now want 4k. do they look good in 4k.

the purists have held back the frame rate to a horrible 24fps and they even want grain? add your own grain filter and skip frames so you get 24, don't force it on the rest of us

Let's give this added bonus to the good old postman who now has a fulfilling job by posting the movies 🎥 to us letters 🔤

I still rent DVDs because it’s the best way to enjoy new movies without dealing with internet issues or waiting months for them to hit streaming services. Rentals often have films just weeks after they leave the cinema, giving you that fresh movie experience at home. Plus, there’s no buffering, no subscriptions, and it’s always exciting to look forward to the next movie. Streaming is great for older films, but renting lets me stay up-to-date with the latest releases, and that’s why I stick with it!

I'm renting in 2024 😂

There is no Dolby vision what are you on about? It’s HDR10.

Cameron likes to put the sharpening and contrast and brightness features of his tv to maximum. That is a certain way to ruin any film look. And using AI is horrendous. At least in its current shape and form. Imagine things that are not there.

Bought this yesterday from Amazon and awaiting delivery along with House of the Dragon S1 4K and Blu-ray of Us and £43 for the lot! Looking forward to rewatching them all in Atmos.

My main problem with it is that while yes an argument can be made that it is the most detailed and sharp it's ever looked, that doesn't really matter when it's sharp and detailed in an un-canny overly smooth and waxy way, less grain doesn't automatically mean the picture is now perfect and adding too much dnr can also make some very huge problems as is the case with true lies.

Blu ray sales are not up HMV released strategical titles that had never had a u.k release and these titles people had been waiting on for a eternity. Dont believe the hype look at the end of year sales report for ALL dvd blu ray and 4k then the truth will be outed. You only have to look at 4k sales and how little you can resell them for just a few month after the initial release. I wouldnt bother with 4k there will never be anywhere near as many titles as there is on standard blu ray and they are silly prices. 4k titles have terrible artwork rarely near the original poster artwork and very few are u.k releases they are mostly import. Then factor in a 3 way split between dvd , 2k and 4k that makes it hard for it to pay the manufacturers a wage. Example i worked for a printing company laminating posters , short runs we earned fook all but had to keep the companies that used us happy so that we could make money from them on bigger orders. When a film is in the blu ray chart for 5 consecutive years then it means people arent buying them to knock years ago titles of the chart. Remember this is new sales these charts not used sales. As a example Jaws was outselling new titles years after it was initially released on blu ray. Not even sure they mension amount of sales anymore. The best use for physical media is to string them up in the back garden to scare magpies away or give them to the midgets frisbee team.

Definitelylike the vault one way better

Came for the review, stayed for someone saying Luminoodle in a Glaswegian(maybe?) accent.

I am in my sixties, so I first saw many of my favourite films on a 4:3 standard definition television, in black and white. If I were to announce that that is how I would prefer to view these films today, I think you would quite rightly consider me daft. I love seeing these films in the theatre (when it's possible) with modern digital projections. Or on my 4K television and surround-sound system. Believing that removing all the grain from a film is some kind of sacrilege is just idiotic to me. I believe that most directors and cinematographers, if they had had the technology when they were making their movies, would have removed as much grain as possible from the image. They would have considered it an improvement. Just as I'm sure they would have liked to remove the hiss and pops from the optical soundtracks of the day. I don't believe these technological limitations were ever considered positive assets by the vast majority of filmmakers. If you have some nostalgic fondness for seeing film grain or a piece of dust flit around the image because that's how you originally saw it, I can't argue with you. That's your subjective preference. But don't blame a filmmaker for wanting the picture to come as close to witnessing the events first hand, with your own eyes and ears, as possible. I believe the idea, for most directors, is to draw the audience into the frame. To make the technology disappear and for you to become lost in the story and characters--in short, to forget you're watching a movie at all. Film grain is not helping with that aim.

Are you from Edinburgh by any chance?

HMV would sell even more if they had a larger in store selection. Too much space taken up with cuddly toys and Funko Pops, that can be bought at loads of other places.

That 2001 design on your shelf is one of my favourites too. It has a permanent position on my shelf as well!

I’m doin it

Need to watch this! Great video as always andy keep it up bud

Always love your reviews. Looking forward to getting my copy.

Superb, great review - might actually give that a watch, love the Alan Partridge goes to hell review 😂.

Andy's back!

Nice review. Any plans for another live podcast?

A cracking release by second sight Andy ..... i ordered the box for this one

Was slightly underwhelmed with this one... Its decent yeah... But the hype around it perhaps set my expectations top high.....

Decent flick, great quick review. Surprised to see you reviewing horror lol keep it up.

Watched this myself earlier this month.

I remember the days I used to go to HMV and sunrise records. Buying CDs, DVD, Blu Ray. I miss the excitement, of rushing home. And opening it, tearing of the plastic, watching my movies, or listening to my music. I made the mistake of getting rid of most of my CDs, dvd, blu ray collection, about 300, for steaming. Now I have been trying to restart my collection. Going to record stores, thrift stores. Since we no longer have, HMV, Sunrise records. And Best Buy, stop selling DVD, blu ray, cd.

Thank you for the review!

I make it a point to go into my local HMV store and buy my DVDs I am part of the statistics, I’m sure of it Long live HMV

Stroman Drive

Jones Jose Garcia Jennifer Taylor Margaret

why not a image gallery?

Williams Daniel Hall Ruth Johnson Shirley

Unfortunately, Looks like The Terminator is going to fall into the hands of James Cameron and Park Road Post, so the A.I Upscale is highly likely...

A new audio commentary…niice. Thank you.

I shall save this for when i watch the 4k multiple times later this year 😉

I just received it and it's a beast! Reminds me of that Star Wars Definitive Collection laserdisc set with the hard box and all the trinkets.

I saw The Hitcher in our local Cannon cinema when it was released and it has finally got the release its always deserved. Still as gripping as ever

Quality video as always mate.... I remember my RE teacher in high school showing us this as a 'moral tale' 😂. Haven't got this one yet but it's on my list...

My big box from HMV just arrived, I'm looking forward to detailed analysis of the spines of book and disc not matching up
