Not sure if this is going to be Germany alone but here are the titles that are coming:

And some examples...

 

[Bill C.]

Rereleasing them in the book-style format? Okaaaay...though I admit I'm kind of curious as to what sorts of bells and whistles a Shoot 'Em Up SE would have.

 

[tauheel05]

Very interesting.

 

[RodChester]

Pretty cool. I'm a fan of WB book style packaging and wouldn't mind picking up about five of those titles. It's too bad that all the text in the book probably won't be in English. If they were i would double dip on those titles for sure.

I'm guessing they're probably just the original release discs, and not any newly pressed discs with new masters?

I'd imagine this to be the case, since that is Warner standard operation procedure - recycle and repackage. Of these, however, The Golden Compass is probably the only one that really begs for a do-over since that is a bit of a DNR disaster in my opinion.


Those packages do look pretty cool.

Blade Runner would also benefit from a more robust video encode with less DNR applied. But considering Warner's track record I expect these are just fancy boxes.

Only just spotted these, love the art

 

[dvdmike007]

Second wave on the way?

Time to start double dipping BDs? Not me.

They should be focusing on putting out more new titles than rereleasing titles out already. I refuse to reward this kind of thinking.

This isn't double-dipping. It's the same disc. It's just a re-packaging. Nothing more.

That's almost as bad.

How so? Unless you care about special packaging, then let them re-release to their hearts content.


All *I* care about is content. As long as they're not re-releasing with more special features, I don't care what they do.


All this steelbook and special packaging stuff is just silly to me but I'm not one to judge.

 

[dvdmike007]

They are ever so pretty

+1


If it's no inconvenience to you (i.e. no added content or new transfer), complaining about it is downright petty.

I'll assume you are kidding.

 

[hlwl]

If only these were being released in an English speaking country (so I could read the pages included).

Only 2 titles? Both of which already have digibook releases stateside? Bummer

 

[colombianlove41]

If it's repackaged, then I'm skipping but if there is a new transfer, WB might get me again.....damn....

 

[Sujay]

If only Dark Knight was a remaster.
