Very happy with this set. Looks fantastic on the wall as a homage to my childhood, and the 4K is just terrific. Thanks for the side by sides! Always appreciate these
I really do too & think they will, I believe Warner Bros has the US rights 🤷🏼♂️ I feel boutiques are releasing super premium stuff 1st & then later they release Steelbook editions & standards.
@@thelastmoviestandingWhile I don't want to pay 200 bucks for this, I would definitely pay a couple of bucks for 4k steel books or a standard 4k release of these movies.
Fair call on my doc - it is a tough watch! Our ethos is to not sugar coat things like most retrospectives might, the reality of Hollywood 😢 but glad you enjoyed the behind the scenes bits!
Hey! I honestly really respect the documentary, I’m soooo happy it’s in here & I hope people see it because it really is a powerful story. I just wasn’t expecting that tone after watching the movie hahaha I said I didn’t watch the last 10mins cause it was the part where he was talking about someone wanting to kill him & he was hoping his show gets picked up & I honestly didn’t want see if anything bad happened to him at the end. It was hard to see him like that 😢 The BTS stuff though, of the production, wow!!! That footage is amazing & as a filmmaking absolutely loved seeing it, especially the part where Wolfgang as crying when filming the horse scene 🤯 & to be fair other people have messaged me like “no no you need to see their other work it’s not as sad” 😊 honestly though great work on the doc 💯
@@thelastmoviestandingmaybe try the last 10 minutes (and credits) cos I tried to make it a bit more uplifting 😂 But navigator is sad with a happy ending - although not all stories can be happy endings. Tami is doing great though! So there’s that ❤ But really appreciate you watching it and your lovely review! I get my copy of the set today, I’m so excited
Absolutely beautiful set. I am extremely impressed with the packaging, and the secure box and plastic cover. I’ve watched the US cut on 4k so far, and a lot of the special features which have been so in-depth. The reproduction press kit is amazing!
The most I've spent on a 4K is £80, and that was for Dawn of the Dead. This looks impressive, but these giant sets and prices are getting outrageous. Anything larger than a big boxset is a no-go for me.
That’s how press kits used to come hi res photos for print and the stapled papers are what I always find. Sometimes there would be info or script notes everything they allowed to print.
As a completionist I wish they’d included the 2nd movie(for those who didn’t know the first movie is only half the story in the original novel and the 2nd movie is based of the other half of the book and yes I did get the novel from my local library after seeing the second movie and read the whole thing)
That's a helluva collectors item! Very Impressive. If they made a LOTR thing like that I'd be all over it so I get why people would want it. Amazing the differences in your side by side, I definitely will be looking for a standard 4K release but I suppose it won't be from Imprint so I wonder if the transfer will be the same? Great review in any case!
Very impressive set, looks like it’s well worth the price. Now I regret not ordering it. No one can ignore the bare chested statues but I never noticed the other imagery you mentioned!
@@salmanmunawar1 yea I had 1 scheduled & forgot to undo it cause I wanted to get this neverending story 1 out today lol I was like oops 😂 that video from this morning I took down will be up tomorrow
The number on my box was 155 of 1,500 shipped directly from Imprint. Others have said out of 560 (I think) purchased from a secondary seller, like Orbit DVD. I’m trying to see if we can figure out how many were made in total.
Think box in a box as better protection, anyway can’t wait till mine gets across the ocean then half the country to Missouri already been told it probably wouldn’t be here till January 😢
The 4k definitely has better colouring and sharper in the non-blue screen effects shots. I collect Imprint releases so I took the movie and it's slipcase out and put it in with the rest of the Imprints, and the 'Book' had to go on top of a shelf as the only place it would fit...lol I bought the whole November Imprint bundle (with Priscilla: Queen of the Desert 4k, A Bridge Too Far 4k and Convoy 4k), so Neverending Story averaged out to $125AU - $83US
As a completionist I wish they’d included the 2nd movie(for those who didn’t know the first movie is only half the story in the original novel and the 2nd movie is based of the other half of the book and yes I did get the novel from my local library after seeing the second movie and read the whole thing) putting my copy next to my Turbine release of knight rider and my Arrow Godzilla 15 movie sets
@@thelastmoviestanding Legend thanks! Loving your channel btw and good job calling out the charlatans shilling for physical media companies the other day.
Does it? I didn’t notice it but to be fair it was on in the background while I was working, let me revisit that 🤔 I honestly had no idea there was an extra scene in there.
One of my favorite films ever … it’s not just the price( that’s part of it) but it’s the fact that I have so many other boutique titles that I want that are limited in some way…. Hopefully they are still making these in a few months then I may go for it , if I miss out that’s fine also.
Got mine a few days ago. Very cool display piece! The metal emblem on the front on the leather immitation. So nice! My protective sleeve is so tight I feel scared putting it back though. I bouggt the whole, expensive, 4K pack with A Bridge Too Far, Priscilla - Queen Of The Desert and Convoy. All in 4K. Have to contact Via rVision though. The box for A Bridge Too Far has a hole in it like someone stabbed it with a screw driver or something. Weird. Thanks for a nice video! Cheers!
@ btw: on my label for The Never Ending Story it says ”87 of 1050”. Not 1500…lol Glad to have it but would have been nice to have them hard numbered. Have a great Christmas!
If you compare the bluray and 4k to a 35mm grindhouse scan of this that is out there in the sea the colors are closer to the 4k tones it isn't the dark orangish tone of the bluray.
Love this movie, the differences are crazy. I only have the snapcase dvd, and then a 1 & 2 dvd set. Have only watched it once as an adult and the damn Artax scene makes me avoid it.
I haven’t watched this video yet in its entirety but will later. I got mine Thursday and I was so excited!! I’m leaving my movie out of it because I don’t want to keep opening it just to watch the movie plus I feel that the plastic covering will tear at some point. I’m sure I’ll enjoy your vid once I can watch it.
The box set does look gorgeous, the detail on the front is very impressive as well as making it like if it was a press kit.... But is it 200 dollars impressive? Ehhh, I don't think so (I don't even know where I would fit this in my room).... I love the movies but I don't love them enough for 200 bucks so I'll wait for a regular 4k release.
I have the DVD of this ( just found out it is on blu-ray, but my DVDplays fine|() But no offence i would not buy this, its just too much, and i never even bought the film when it came out, watched the sequel Saturday very similar to The Princess Bride, which annoyed me kept going from the present to the story. Brian this review/ unboxing video is better than another i saw that was not as detailed, and he did think the german versions were necessary, well i do not own it nor will i but hes wrong, if he did not want the extra versions , then reconsider buying it, cos you are buying everything that is included, i think they could of done a cheaper version .
It looks cool without question but I still don't see the value in it to justify $200, you really have to be a hardcore fan which I'm not and yes I know the Neverending Story from my childhood but the last time I saw the Movie it didn't work for me anymore.
Very happy with this set. Looks fantastic on the wall as a homage to my childhood, and the 4K is just terrific. Thanks for the side by sides! Always appreciate these
Mine is still sitting in customs in LA....boo!!
I like the film but not enough to pay $200 for a collector's edition. Hopefully they release a standard 4K.
I really do too & think they will, I believe Warner Bros has the US rights 🤷🏼♂️ I feel boutiques are releasing super premium stuff 1st & then later they release Steelbook editions & standards.
@@thelastmoviestandingWhile I don't want to pay 200 bucks for this, I would definitely pay a couple of bucks for 4k steel books or a standard 4k release of these movies.
@TheHipisterDeer i would definitely pay a bit extra for a really nice steelbook edition, but $200 for one movie is just not logical to me.
He looks happy as a kid that just saw Santa 😂 🙌🏼🙌🏼 nice pickup 💪🏼
That extra disc space is for your dvd 📀 😂 jk , I wish arrow would do that with some of theirs

Great unboxing and comparison shot's. I am excited to unbox mine tomorrow.
Hope you enjoy it bro! It’s really nice, I was really impressed seeing it in person
No soundtrack is a major bummer for the cost
Do you mean a standalone soundtrack? Or a new soundtrack on the film? Because it does have a new 5.1 track
@KipKil1igan musical score standalone yes.
It would have filled out the case nicely
@jasonking4146 yeah true, would have made sense to fill the empty disc spot
@@KipKil1igannow I have to see if I can’t find a copy of the soundtrack online to complete mine when it finally gets in
As a completionist I wish they’d included the 2nd movie(for those who didn’t know the first movie is only half the story in the original novel and the 2nd movie is based of the other half of the book and yes I did get the novel from my local library after seeing the second movie and read the whole thing)

I really appreciate that 🙏🏻 yea I think this will eventually make its way to a domestic release
The 2010 Blu-ray has an orange tint to it. The ivory tower is not orange. It is supposed to be white. It’s supposed to be the side of good.
Very impressive set, looks like it’s well worth the price. Now I regret not ordering it. No one can ignore the bare chested statues but I never noticed the other imagery you mentioned!
Dude I never noticed the other stuff either until seeing it as an adult 😂

@@thelastmoviestanding The Convoy 4k looks really good - but dam, all 4 November releases were pretty expensive on their own
This looks completely worth the money to be honest, that is to say, If you love the movie
It would be awesome if we got the actual book 📚 in that size. I haven't read it yet.

Same man!! I need the 2nd once now on 4k lol but I get it’s not near as popular.
Brian, is there any difference between the 4K Of Never Ending Sory in your collection and the German Import? thanks
Same thing I want to know. If it matches the German import it will be almost worth the money.
Same transfer but the US cut 4k has Dolby Vision & the German 4k does not.
@@thelastmoviestanding Legend thanks! Loving your channel btw and good job calling out the charlatans shilling for physical media companies the other day.
I love this movie... Great show thank you for the video. Happy holidays. Byebye
Happy holidays brother!!
I thought the German release was supposed to have the lost spider mountain sequence?
Does it? I didn’t notice it but to be fair it was on in the background while I was working, let me revisit that 🤔 I honestly had no idea there was an extra scene in there.

So you paid £200 for a massive oversized case that won’t fit into your movie collection bookshelf and some glossy pictures…..glad I saved my money
😂 yea it’s kinda ridiculous
I think they don’t look as sharp bc lobby cards were never that big and I’m assuming they just scanned the originals and made them big af.
Yea I was thinking the same thing
I’d have to get that poster framed and up in
My cinema room .
Those Art cards rock 👌👌👌👌
Got mine a few days ago. Very cool display piece!

Damn that sucks about that other movie box. & yea I feel the same about putting the protector back on lol
I really want to get that convey boxset
@ btw: on my label for The Never Ending Story it says ”87 of 1050”. Not 1500…lol
Glad to have it but would have been nice to have them hard numbered.
Have a great Christmas!
@@alfonsoagren414 yea hard numbered for this especially would have been great.
Happy holidays brother
The 3d graphics on the slipcase are sooooo cool 👌👌👌👌👌
I wish studios would bring back lenticulars
you wouldn’t think something like this would come from Australia would you?
Why? Imprint and Viavision have been doing sweet sets for ages
Germany got a lot of amazing boxsets as well
It looks REALLY good!
Mine's due tomorrow (fingers crossed).
Man I was sweating on if it would arrive before Xmas lol it took forever after shipped

I need to pick up the sequel, have seen it since the 90s
The 4k blows away the bluray. All those scenes are supposed to be white not orange.
Yea that orange threw me off when I saw it
I'm glad you like it but box sets for single movies literally enrage me lol
😂 trust me bro this is a rarity in my collection haha
Crap, I threw away the box with the label that had the numbered count. I wasn't paying attention when I got it in.
Dude I didn’t know either! Another UA-camr (80s Made) texted me a photo of his & it took me awhile to find where it was 😂
This looks awesome 👌👌👌👌👌
orange saturation on the Blu-ray doesn't make any sense. I own the dvd an the colours of the image look like those on the 4k
I wish I had got the dvd too for these comparisons
That thing is ridiculous 😂
Ken is mad and he's not gonna take it. 😂

Yea man it’s still hard to justify the purchases lol I won’t lie it was a major impulse thing haha
For that price, why does it have to be a prop?Why couldn't they publish a real f in book ps Still a hundred dollars cheaper than that plastic chainsaw
I thought that exact same thing hahaha
i only really liked part 2
I haven’t seen that since the 90s lol I’m really wanting to go get the Blu-ray this week to revisit it
I bought a Blu-ray of this at Meijer about 5 years ago for $5 dollars. No way in hell I am paying this kind of money for a 10% improvement at best.
not buying it, Imprint tend to re-release some sets like this a few months after the releases in standard versions
