Sebastian — Thu, 23 May 2013 21:33:10 +0000

Django Unchained BluRay and DVD are out now, dear Europeans! A couple of weeks really only after Django Unchained was released to the US home video market (and topped the sales charts there for weeks) it is now also available in other major overseas markets, namely the UK, France and Germany (and a few others, with a few more to join in the next few weeks). Sony is handling international distribution, and so the ...

(Deutsche Version) Just in time for Django Unchained, a box of Tarantino’s first 20 years of filmmaking were released (fans hope/know there’ll be another 20 years of awesome movies, despite of what he says in interviews). Titled “Tarantino XX”, the box boasts all his feature directorial efforts plus True Romance, plus some exclusive extras. It is a BluRay box, however markets like Germany also get the DVD treatment, due to low penetration of the ...

Western Unchained – Tarantino’s Spaghetti Western favorites

Sebastian — Wed, 02 Jan 2013 14:25:12 +0000

Quentin Tarantino has opened the eyes of many, especially among the younger generation, to a world of cinema that has otherwise not received the public attention it should have. Foreign films, old kung fu movies, European classics, Spaghetti Westerns, Filipino low-budget action movies, classic drive-in flicks of the 60s and 70s, you name it. I personally think it is (among many things) a great achievement that through his movies, he has revived so much ...

Grindhouse out on BluRay, DVD only in Canada

Sebastian — Tue, 05 Oct 2010 01:22:35 +0000

Grindhouse (the theatrical experience of April 2007 with versions of Planet Terror and Death Proof previously unseen on home video, including fake trailers Machete, Don’t, Thanksgiving, Werewolf Women of the SS) is out on BluRay today! Fans have waited three years to see this happen. Despite some early rumors that this version might exclude the fake Machete trailer because Robert Rodriguez has finished an actual movie based on it, are false (here is a ...

Who’s a Basterd?

Inglourious Basterds (read 10 facts about the films here) winning big at the Academy Awards is still little over a week away (read here why it will win), but Monsieur Tarantino is making some space on his bookshelf for the little Oscar fella (even though in an interview he says he things Ms Bigelow should win the best director award), I’m very sure. Christoph Waltz has so many awards for his role as Hans ...

Closer to Oscars, Basterds collects

Sebastian — Mon, 14 Dec 2009 15:34:18 +0000

As we’re deep into the Oscars season, speculation heats about about Inglourious Basterds‘ chances of taking home one or more of the shiny little golden oscar statues. The Academy has increased the number of nominees from 5 to 10, which makes things a little more complicated, and absent a blockbuster that would unanimously be considered “the thing” (think a movie along the lines of Forrest Gump, which snatched it from Pulp Fiction in ’95, ...

To make this really quick, Inglourious Basterds will hit BluRay and DVD (as stated a few times already) before christmas (and after christmas in some countries). We have started compiling a list of all BluRay releases and a separate list of all DVD releases. Please note that these lists are still subject to change, as various Amazons correct the cover image and different version they get from the distributors. The movie will mostly be ...

The Basterds are coming

Sebastian — Mon, 19 Oct 2009 18:37:15 +0000

Basterds is still making money like crazy (Source: ABC) and it’s still keeping columnists busy (this one: click; still gets the name wrong and some other things, but it’s a good read). At the same time, the BluRay and DVD release definitely seems to be going down before christmas (Source), so we are now trying to keep our Basterds DVD and BluRay overview page updated as much as possible.

Just when I tried to calm things down in me previous post, which some might’ve considered as some sort of a rant against those Kill Bill Vol3 stories, more “new Tarantino movie” rumors are popping up. By way of our friend Rama at Rama’s Screen (a movie blog you can’t not read daily!), we heard that Quentin mentioned to Variety, that whatever he does between now and Kill Bill Volume 3 (if he does ...

There has been considerable speculation already, as several industry bloggers have mused that as part of a wider oscar strategy and in order to take in the holiday business, Inglourious Basterds will come out on home video in time for christmas. Now in the forum of an announcement on one of the Basterds’ official Facebook pages, comes the news that in the UK, Quentin’s box office rousing epic will hit the DVD and BluRay ...

Grindhouse to hit BluRay before Inglourious Basterds?

While the majority of Tarantino fans are probably waiting for Kill Bill: The Whole Bloody Affair to hit DVD shelves this August for synergy effects related to the theatrical release of Inglourious Basterds, it seems like that fortune is reserved for Grindhouse. Press releases seem to indicate, according to BD News, that Genius Products, the WeinsteinCo’s home video distribution arm, is set to release Grindhouse on a 2-disc BluRay set on August 11. No ...

Sin City kicks ass on BluRay

So apparently Sin City, which already kicked loads of ass on the Unrated/Recut DVD edition, kicks even more ass in gorgeous BluRay high-definition. If you’re out looking for ways to feed your BluRay appetite, take a look at THIS review and tell me if that doesn’t sound great. Not only does it come with all the goodies you’ve seen on the DVD, it comes with a few additional extras and of course the movie ...

Hello out there, high-def owners. While we’re trying to keep our BluRay overview page up-to-date (help us out in case we’re missing something, send us your reviews if you own some discs), High-Def Digest reports that Disney has moved the BluRay Disc releases of Jackie Brown and Pulp Fiction up to August 4 this year.

Sin City hits Blu Ray in April

It’s been a bit quiet around Robert Rodriguez lately, aside from the odd rumors about the numerous projects he might be heading, from Sin City 2 to a possible Machete movie. You better be on the safe side and get your daily fix of RR on home video. One of the greatest DVDs of his movies was of course the Unrated&Recut Box set of Sin City, which will now arrive on BluRay for those ...

I have to say I do not personally own high definition equipment, currently I don’t even own a TV or DVD player. But one thing that has puzzled me these past few months is how much love Death Proof got from BluRay Disc reviewers. When reviewing DVDs or BluRay of course the main aspect is the disc quality, extras and such like, and the movie is only part of the final verdict, but still, ...

Just a short heads up for you home video lovers out there. Sad news first: the announced German DVD of Grindhouse has been postponed until 2009, indicating a possible simultaneous worldwide release instead. Hardcore fans will thus have to stick with the overpriced Japanese box with the inferior transfer. I also got the Swedish Hell Ride DVD in the mail today.

Rumor has it, that Robert Rodriguez‘ ultra-violent and ubercool graphic novel adaptation Sin City will hit Blu Ray disc this winter, and what excites me personally, is that word around the campfire is that From Dusk Till Dawn is also up for some high definition pimping. I was long of the opinion that Dusk is way overdue for a proper re-release even on DVD, as the current one available for purchase is a non-anamorphic ...
