The Rewind Forums (NEW)

The Steelbook re-release came out last week but an unexplained shipping delay meant I only got my copy yesterday.

Small point but you didn't add the note about the "Archive" also being 480i/4:3.

Hello :).

It has just come to my attention that the various UK Bluray releases of Attack on Titan AKA Shingeki no kyojin: Season 1 (TV) by Manga Entertainment Ltd have some errors that will be corrected in the upcoming Crunchyroll Steelbook Re-Release:

1: The Brightness Levels for each episode are ...

Hello :).

I have just received my German copy of The Abyss 4K and have noticed some errors/omissions in the comparisons for this release:

1: The distributor is 20th Century Studios, NOT Leonine. Leonine doesn't appear anywhere on the case, discs or menus.
2: The "Under Pressure: Making The Abyss ...

The R2 Germany and R3 HK image comparison link in the Overall for the Shrek 2 DVD comparison is dead so needs replacing or deleting: http://www.dvdcompare.net/comparisons/film.php?fid=6246

AFAIK, Shout Factory haven't acknowledged or even recognised the issues so no, there won't be a replacement program - which sucks, because I was looking forward to this .

It should be noted that the Shout Factory release of "Brotherhood of the Wolf" includes an entirely new and highly controversial Subtitle track which is riddled with typos, grammar issues, factual errors, inaudible lines, missing info etc. it's rumoured that Studio Canal refused to let Shout Factory ...

Thank you but I've noticed some additional inaccuracies that need fixing please :):

1: The UK entry still says Disc 2 is the Theatrical Cut, when it's actually the Special Edition
2: Disc 1 has an Audio Commentary with Pierre Spengler and Ilya Salkind, that isn't mentioned. I haven't got the US or ...

Ok, all done - the requested changes have been made . It turns out that A) I suck at converting times and B) I forgot my Player has an upscale function .

Cuts: (and if you know it, precise run time) No cuts, Special Edition Cut of the film (131:25)

Please recheck the runtime.

Also are you sure the extras are in 1080i60 MPEG-2, and not 480i MPEG-2?

I'll double check everything in the Morning since it's past 1am now and I have to hit the sack .

Hello :).

I've just received my UK copy of Superman: The Movie (Blu-ray 4K) and discovered the current specs for Disc 2 are mostly wrong so here are the correct ones:


Title: Superman: The Movie
Country: UK
Region: All
Releasing Studio: Warner Home Video
Case Type: Amaray Keep Case
Aspect Ratio ...

I thought the version that wasn't the Ultimate Hunter Edition and
Predator 2 was meant to be good transfers.
The MPEG-2 version is essentially just an upscaled DVD transfer but with a slight red push. It's far from being a great transfer but it is also far more watchable than the unholy ...

I've got the 4K trilogy set and the Predator 1 bluray is the same DNR trainwreck we got with the Ultimate Hunter Edition and the other two use transfers recycled from older DVD releases so are acceptable without being spectacular. The 4K releases are far superior to the DVDs and blurays but if you ...

He's referring to the Film Reels the BBFC ordered the cuts be made to .

There are actually 2 cuts of Rambo 5: https://www.movie-censorship.com/report.php?ID=790718. The shorter version was shown in the US, Canada and UK but the longer cut was shown everywhere else.

Ok, I've doubled checked by copy and the runtime I posted is correct i.e. 1hrs 37mins 44secs. I've compared both my Canadian and UK copies and there are 2 differences between them in terms of runtime:

1: The UK version runs at 50i but the Canadian version runs at 60i.
2: The UK version begins with ...

Hi Oliver,

Couple of questions.
Soundtracks: Language is missing, English?
Running time: No cuts (97:44 NTSC). Is this correct? UK release has running time of No cuts (97:58 PAL). NTSC version should be a couple of minutes longer than PAL version.
Notes: "- The case states a runtime of 98mins ...
