Hi,

I live in the UK and subscribe to Empire magazine. I have just received my copy and they have a pull out section in it that list some "coming soon" titles on Blu-ray as follows-

Run Lola Run
Crouching Tiger Hidden Dragon
Fight Club
Ghostbusters
All just say 2008

The issue is dated January 2008 and it does not give exact release dates or if it is just UK .

I have attached a scanned copy of the page.

I thought some people may like to know this and I can't find the information anywhere else. Apologises if this has already been posted but I couldn't find anything.

Thanks
Darren

Ghostbusters. Hope that one is released early in the new year.

This one will rock. I can't wait... I love the music and hope to see Lossless audio in this one...

Well I love this movie to, but keep your expectations at the right level.

Its an Anamorfed 35 from the 1984. So while it still will look good (I like A35), some people here can be dissapointed with the looks.

Fight Club and Ghostbusters are a must for me thats awesome!

I'd buy Ghostbusters

I knew there was a reason I just bought my new 60GB PS3!

Ghostbusters is by far my favorite movie of all time....if I didn't buy my PS3 this would of forced me. Bring it on!

Ghostbusters will be mine no questions asked, as well as Fight Club. I seriously look at my Ghostbusters 1 & 2 DVD set sitting on my shelf daily and think "Sony why have you not put this out on BD yet?"

Run Lola Run
Crouching Tiger Hidden Dragon
Fight Club
Ghostbusters

I'll buy all of these if they come out on BD here in the States.

Run Lola Run has been in desperate need of a rerelease for years. Hopefully the BR will do the movie justice. I'll be looking forward to this one for sure. Thanks OP for the scan!

Fight Club!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!

Not to damper anyones enthusiasm, but paidgeek on bluray.com mentioned some time ago that Ghostbusters films were in pretty rough shape.

I want both of them in HD, but I expect it will be a while before we see them.
Paidgeek did mention that Lawrence of Arabia should be out next year.

Thanks for the information from across the pond. I wish we had a US equivalent of Empire over here.

Those are nice titles, and I've been waiting for CTHD for ages, as it was initially announced long ago.

Not to damper anyones enthusiasm, but paidgeek on bluray.com mentioned some time ago that Ghostbusters films were in pretty rough shape.They've been showing Ghostbusters 2 on UHD for a while now and it looks pretty much pristine.

Fight Club and Ghostbusters would make me veeeeeeery happy.

Run Lola Run


Good news there. This movie rocks
and Franka Potente is the bomb.

Ghostbusters will probably be released in October 08 when the new Video Game comes out, So far titled as "Ghostbusters 3"

That is my assumption as well. Look for Sony to do a fully restored special edition set of both films sometime in 08...however it is still TBD about the title of the game bearing the official "sequel" title according to Game Informers article. Nonetheless, it makes perfect sense.

I definately would love to see Run Lola Run in BD.

It has a great soundtrack also, and should sound great!


"Mannnnnniiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii"

Im just glad these arent Fox titles, as we would never see these.

I hope they actually do use the original Ghostbusters cover art. Nothing beats that logo on a black background.

Oh man I'd be all over Ghostbusters and Fight Club! Those are both high on my list. I'm surprised Snatch hasn't dropped on UK HDM yet:confused:

I dug out the 2002 Collector's Series and 2006 "Slime-Pack" Ghostbusters DVDs:

Pretty big difference, unsure if one is superior to the other...?

The older HD transfer does not suffer from blown out whites and messed up gamma that obliterates detail in many shots. I'm hoping the horrid problems of the more recent HD transfer are fixed for the BD.

The version shown on HDNet is nice (has the blown out highlights above though) but a liitle too DNRed:

It will be interesting to see if Lola Rennt has the same yellow tinted crap transfer as the US version does.

Well now i see those pictures the new transfer does look bad.

Yet the old transfer is also not that great. I hope they fixed all of it for the new Blu Ray edition as i like this movie a lot.

I have the old transfer on DVHS, with a 5.1 track muxed in. :) Me thinks I'm done with this title for a long long time. :D
