~MISERY gets the 4K treatment and it's a stunner!
on October 18, 2021
Posted by: 93Vet
Verified Purchase:Yes
"FAN"tastic!!
I didn't know MISERY could look this good and it does now.
The 4K version is the BEST it has looked, probably since it has debuted in the theaters back in 1990.
Well done Kino Lorber! Thank you for making this a 4K version
with the slip cover!
Kathy Bates and James Caan are one heck of a duo on this movie.
Highly recommended!

Verified Purchase:Yes
Halloween 4: The Return of Michael Myers finally gets the Deluxe 4K treatment in a beautiful package.
This is the brand new 2021 4K edition and the overall packaging and design are fantastic!
The menus are great and easy selections.
The audio is fabulous at 7.1 Atmos, which is new.
You also get the 5.1 and standard audio.
All special features have been brought over from previous editions for this particular sequel.
The insert for the movie is reversable, so we get the poster artwork for the movie that was released in October 1988.
I highly recommend!

~TEMPEST Legacy Edition is truly a beautiful unit~
on October 18, 2021
Posted by: 93Vet
I love it so far. 12 games in all. All ATARI games and the custom riser really does come in handy. I am 6 ft. 2 in. without shoes.
The buttons really work well, the volume control is excellent, and you do get to go in and change the settings for each game, that is a MUST for anyone, or you can select the standard for each game.
The only thing I have for quality in the long run is the trackball.
The spinner is okay for now, but that may have to be modded at some point for an upgrade. I am hoping that will be the case.
The black plastic piece just will not hold up over time if you use it on TEMPEST quite a lot. I have seen modifications made to other units with a similar spinner and that was chrome metal and far more sturdy.
Overall grade, A-.
I would recommend to anyone that loves ATARI games from the 1979 to 1983 range.

~ Avoid The Haunted Mansion ~
on October 13, 2021
Posted by: 93Vet
Verified Purchase:Yes
Oh, stay away from this one, folks. Far away. I am an Eddie Murphy fan of his '80s hits, but this one, is a flop.
The effects for the time look decent and the mansion they picked, etc. for the base story is nice to look at, but that is only a piece of the whole picture.
Whoever designed the menu setup for this Blu-ray should be ashamed as well. It's not good using a pop up style menu.
When you press MENU on your remote it says NO MENU.
Bad casting in this one and for it to be a DISNEY movie, over fifteen years ago at least, it has some bad language in it as well.
NOT recommended, especially if you have young ones watching it for the Halloween type of atmosphere.

I had not seen this until a few days ago. It was outstanding in every way. The entire cast did a great job on their respective roles and there was no slow pace at all to it.
I enjoyed the lead cast and the entire storyline.
I hope they release this on a 4K version eventually. The Blu-ray looks really good on the 4K equipment.

~ Halloween II gets the Deluxe 4K treatment ~
on October 11, 2021
Posted by: 93Vet
Verified Purchase:Yes
Finally, we get an individual 4K deluxe release of Halloween II, the continuation of the night in which Laurie Strode came face to face with Michael Myers, her nearly forgotten brother.
After breaking out of the insane asylum, Michael plots his way to Haddonfield, Illinois for a family reunion and to kill anyone who gets in his way from doing in his sister.
Laurie, after suffering serious injury, finds herself at the city hospital. Michael escapes Dr. Loomis once again after being shot several times and tries to elude the local sheriff's at all costs.
He winds his way through the city as they partake of the dark night of Halloween, along the way, killing yet another innocent girl. He finally learns of Laurie's presence at he city hospital and makes his way there, wreaking havoc to all.
Laurie finally realizes Michael is there and tries to escape from his grasp once and for all.
Doctor Loomis arrives on scene to engage Michael as well.
Great sequel and now it looks fantastic in a brand new 2021 4K
edition with great artwork and a flip cover insert for the original art.
We get pretty much all of the extras that have been released prior, with the exception of several individual deleted scenes by themselves without narration.
There is some here on this edition with narration from the Director and he explains why they did not make it into the final movie.
I believe the 30th Anniversary Blu-ray of Halloween II has those individual deleted scenes that had to be cut.

The Blu-ray version of the movie on that edition had white specks in it throughout.
This 2021 4K edition looks the best it has ever looked.
Sound is a fantastic Dolby Atmos 7.1 if you choose.
There are other audio options as well.
Menus are outstanding.
The TV version is on a DVD being standard definition, I am a bit dismayed as to why they went and put the first Halloween TV cut on a nice Blu-ray and left this sequel on a DVD. Anyway, at least we have it if you want to see that version.
Get this now before it is out of print.

~ HALLOWEEN III gets the Deluxe 4K treatment ~
on October 8, 2021
Posted by: 93Vet
Verified Purchase:Yes
For once, we get an individual Deluxe release of this other Halloween story that has nothing to do with Michael Myers, the insane psychopath out to kill his sister and any living relatives that he may know of.
The overall packaging and features on it make it THE BEST version of this movie that has ever been released. I say that genuinely as I have owned several versions prior to this one.
There is an overall improvement in the 2021 4K disc and audio Dolby Atmos 7.1. It is outstanding.
I personally thought it could not get better as far as picture quality since the Universal Blu-ray release as I still have that.
I was pleasantly surprised to see it so beautiful and sounding so good now. I play all of these back on the Sony 4K player and 55" 4K TV with HDR. That in conjunction with a Vizio sound bar for audio makes it fantastic!
All features for this movie have been brought over from other prior releases.

We DO get the reverse artwork for the original poster art on the insert for the movie. You can flip it over to have the outer box artwork if you choose.
Thank you Scream Factory!!
Get this now!

~ World War Z comes to HD Blu-ray ~
on October 5, 2021
Posted by: 93Vet
Verified Purchase:Yes
The zombie movie of the year for 2013 and it still holds up as quite an action paced flick. I think Brad did a great job for his role and in fact, the cast did as well. There were no slow spots in this movie and if you are a horror fan, I think you will like this one.
A ravaging virus has taken control of the Earth's population with tragic results, but Brad Pitt, who is one of the main characters, discovers it's weakness and must battle them to get to a cure of sorts.
The package is good, we get the Unrated version on Blu-ray with a great menu, the DVD copy of it, and a Digital version.
Find a good price for this one, folks. I got it for $4.99.

John Carpenter's groundbreaking shocker that opened the floodgates for hundreds of imitators stills packs a scare-raising punch. Fifteen years after being placed in an asylum for killing his sister on Halloween, maniacal Michael Myers escapes and returns to his hometown of Haddonfield, Illinois, in search of new victims. Jamie Lee Curtis (her film debut), Donald Pleasence, Nancy Loomis, and P.J. Soles star. 91 min. Widescreen; Soundtrack English; Subtitles English. Three-disc set.

~ HALLOWEEN finally has a 4K package on it's own ~
on October 5, 2021
Posted by: 93Vet
Verified Purchase:Yes
We finally get the solo deluxe treatment of HALLOWEEN (1978), starring the young Jamie Lee Curtis and a host of young talent. Directed by John Carpenter, (The Thing, Christine, Assault on Precinct 13), this first original film on the Halloween franchise is now a must to own 4K deluxe package. Not only do we get a nicely done outer clamshell that is not flimsy, we get the reversable insert for the original movie artwork as well.
Everything looks good and the motion menus are outstanding with easy selections.
All extras have been brought over for this and the other releases individually.
The new 2021 4K version is stunning with Dolby Atmos 7.1,
if you choose.
There is plenty of audio commentary also.
All extras are on the 2 Blu-rays, no more analog DVDs.
**** The printing on the back of outer box and 4K insert sleeve has some misprinted information on what is on each Blu-ray for the Extras. The Extras are all there on the discs, it's the printing that is the error. Whoever did the final Quality control before it went to print did a lousy job. ****

~ Wonder Woman gets the Blu-ray Series treatment!~
on September 14, 2021
Posted by: 93Vet
Verified Purchase:Yes
For years we had the series on several DVD packages and although glad to have it as a full set, it just didn't look that good overall.
Analog DVD is an old format and to have this finally come to Blu-ray HD is truly amazing.
Lynda Carter does an outstanding job as Wonder Woman in the 3 Season series from the late 1970s.
The imagery and sound have not been this good before, even in the TV broadcasts back on 1976-1979 TVs.
I do have to say that the DVD set is more colorful when it comes to artwork, but this Blu-ray format just shines overall on the 4K player and TV.
Recommended if you love Lynda Carter as Wonder Woman.

Flash Gordon isn't for everyone, but it's good.
By laopwh
Flash Gordon isn't for everyone, but it is a good movie set in 1980.the music score is what makes the movie really good because new score is all done by Queen. What makes the steelbook really good as it's the 40th anniversary of the movie itself. Anybody knows the story behind Flash Gordon knows the story itself. Flash Gordon, Dale Arden, and Doctor Zarcough have to find a way to stop Earth's destruction. Not knowing that Ming the Merciless is behind everything and Earth's destruction. Having the 40th anniversary edition come out on steelbook is worth every penny.

Step right up to the counter and play away. Arcade1Up's next generation of countercades is here in a new form factor. Take it right out of the box, plug it in, and start gobbling up pellets. Perfect for home bars, offices, dorm rooms, or anywhere else you'd want to squeeze in some retro gaming, Arcade1Up~s countercades are compact in size, but always an enormous amount of fun. Yep, here she is. Possibly a diva but most definitely an icon, Ms. Pac-Man. Guide her way through those mazes while evading Blinky, Pinky, Inky, and Sue. In the mood to switch it up? You've also got the classics Pac-Man, Plus, Galaga, and Dig Dug all inside. Featuring authentic gameplay with real feel controls, Arcade1Up's countercades are the way to bring that classic arcade experience home, even if you're short on space.

Hi, I have Ms. Pac-Man on a tabletop version and it is exact like the genuine ARCADE version from early 80s. In the original version of the game she starts out slow and then she speeds up as you clear a few screens, around the PEACH and APPLE stages.
Is it the same here on the countercade version?
Of interest concerning MS., PAC-MAN on my tabletop, there are several versions of the game. These are the only ones that I know of:
MS. PAC-MAN Original
MS. PAC-MAN Speed-Up
MS. PAC-MAN Plus
MS. PAC-ATTACK

Since you bought it from BEST BUY, give them the receipt and ask for a replacement or a refund since it was damaged and defective. BEST BUY is the seller and they are responsible.

Another great package from Arcade1up
By TRAINMAN0703
The very best aspect of this over Arcade1up's original Pac-Man offering is the upgraded monitor. The original Pac-Man's image would wash out when you looked at it from a slight angle. This rendition does not do that. The image is bright and crisp from any angle. The monitor is also set further back in the cabinet and tilted more, which does not sound like much on paper until you actually play it and compare it to the real arcade machine.
I buy these things solely with modifications in mind, therefore I did not play any of the included games right out of the box. For those who do not "mod" these, the assortment of games is a vast improvement over the chintzy offering of a mere 2 Pac-titles in the last Pac-Man cabinet. I am baffled by the inclusion of "Galaga" however. Pac-Man's "lady friend" would have been great here, but she is getting her own royal treatment (and deservedly so) soon. I must point out that they did change the way the control panel mounts to the cabinet and how the lower two front-facing panels (these are also slightly resized) directly below said control panel install. Because of the alteration(s) to the control panel, you cannot just slide in/out the panels below it, which will make for a tricky assembly process. The shape of the cabinet itself is another notable improvement as it veers much closer to capturing the profile of the real thing. The speakers (yes, speakerS) are now housed behind/under the marquee, which is also far more arcade-like not just in looks but also sound reproduction.
The light-up marquee, light-up (albeit non-prototypical) control deck, bar stool and riser make this package the best value of any Pac-Man 40th anniversary offering, as separate-sale risers are VERY hard to come by; and, to my knowledge, the 40th anniversary-themed bar stool is not sold separately at all. Again, I will gripe that the design on the riser does not look like a natural extension of the cabinet. The faux-wood grain should be on the sides and the black in the front. Oh well. This can be fixed with after-market graphics for those who really feel the need. I think I personally would have preferred the cabinet to be yellow like the 1980 prototype, but the "cabaret" models of the time did indeed have a wood grain finish, albeit with no graphics.
If you did not get the original Pac-Man cabinet from Arcade1up, this is most certainly worthy of consideration. Other than the slightly trickier assembly, this is an improvement in almost every way.

40th Anniversary Special Edition from Best Buy..
September 15, 2020
Hi, great review of the newer version of PAC-MAN from Arcade1up. I am going to get this one for my upcoming 54th bday! Yes, I am showing my age, but, I was 13 when the original cabinet came out. I loved it then and I still love it now. I would have to agree with you on the riser part as per the graphics, but, I think they were going for a contrast look. Agreed also, they should have continued the wood grain on the sides and kept the black on the front to make it look uniform. I do love the SPECIAL EDITION from Best Buy. Not only do you get the light up aspects of the unit, you also get the stand with the graphics.
My only complaint would be the unit having the AUDIO switch setting too loud if you go beyond 1.

That's too bad. I think you got a glitch in the part where the circuit board is. I had the original GALAGA/GALAXIAN game and in some games on the GALAXIAN the screen froze up right in the middle of playing. I was not a happy person. I got rid of it and sold it cheap to someone else that wanted GALAGA, which had no issues.
SUPER PAC-MAN is going to be on the MS. PAC-MAN cabinet coming soon AND there is a SUPER PAC-MAN cabinet from COSTCO that has it on it's own. This just came out within a few days to a week. September 15, 2020. You have to go to COSTCO and find someone with a membership to purchase. You cannot get it online to my knowledge.

Ms PacMan Cabinet
By Oval
Packaging was great and care has been taken to protect the parts in transit. Assembly was about 1.5-2 hours from start to finish. I was taking my time to make sure I didn’t scratch any pcs during assembly. The cabinet looks great and the light up marquee really makes it stand out. The graphics on the riser add a nice touch as well. The cabinet comes with dual speakers and the sound quality is good. I bought the cabinet for Ms Pac-Man but having Dig Dug was a bonus. Overall I’m really happy with my purchase and would recommend.

Definitive!!!
By SirDevoidOfHate
The definitive collection, and probably the last one you’ll ever need (unless they do a 4K release in the future). The first four films have never looked better, period! And if you’re a 3D supporter (we’re a dying breed these days, but we’re out there!) then you will love finally having a proper 3D release of Part 3! Also, having the Unrated Cut of Jason Goes to Hell is a major plus! The bonus features are very informative, though it’s a shame that the Crystal Lake Memories documentary isn’t included. That’s not to take away from what Scream Factory put together. This is an AMAZING collection!

Uncut version of JGTH/Jason X
October 31, 2020
HI, I have this set as well from Shout! Factory and it appears there is a minor audio issue with Jason X. A sound effect is not present when Jason goes to kill a woman character in the movie.
JGTH seems to be missing a scene from other reviewers I have read on. I am not worried about this as I have the UNRATED DVD from Lionsgate already.

Excellent movie. Not perfect, but great movie.
By Misterday
Great movie. But so removed from the original animated movie, you might enjoy it more if you consider them to not have anything to do with each other. There’s no music, no Mushu, no romance. The only real thing making it a Mulan movie is her name is Mulan. They don’t do a great job of making you feel like she’s a boy in the army. It’s a lazy gender bend if you ask me. But the movie has everything a live action Disney movie can want or need. Great story, great special effects, great score, great action and emotion. Just don’t compare it to the cartoon too much and you’ll like it a lot more.

Included here are The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring (2001), The Lord of the Rings: The Two Towers (2002), and The Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King (2003).

Very pleased, excellent transfer
By NateC
Unlike some other buyers, luckily my copy came right on time and in perfect condition.
The movies themselves are phenomenally mastered with crisp picture, robust hdr color/contrast, and awesome 4k textures I've never seen before on previous inferior versions. These look excellent in my home theater and serve as the new showcase for my system (which used to be Mad Max: Fury Road). The steelbooks are attractive and come with cushioning foam in the slipcase to protect them from rubbing against each other.
Not as much extra content (i.e. The Appendices) as previous versions, so I'll need to keep my old copy as well.

Excellent 1up Arcade game cabinet!
By PacManPlayer
Brings back memories of hanging out at the Arcade with a pocket full of quarters when I was young. My daughter absolutely loves it and we enjoy seeing who can get the high score on this 40th Anniversary Pac-Man. The custom stool is nice and the backlit Marquis and control deck is really nice. The led control deck has a button on the right that can change the colors or slowly rotate through all the colors. The replay value is good for the list of Pac-Man games plus you get Galaga! Very happy.

You're going to hate buying this version when a New 12-1 Legacy Edition is coming, better cabinet, more games, for the same price.

Retrogaming fans and pop-culture enthusiasts have been clamoring for it, and here it is courtesy of Arcade1Up: the Atari Legacy CENTIPEDE Edition home arcade machine, for the first time in a form factor shaped just like the original classic arcade cabinet!
 

There are misleading images of this unit's screen size when showing Centipede. The game is a vertical game as it should be. However, there are photos of it being squashed or horizontal. Which is it?

Evolving from its 1958 beginnings as an amusement game manufacturer, Midway produced some of the hottest arcade games of the 80s and 90s, that have since been adapted into film, television, and much more.Their monsters-wreaking-havoc title Rampage~was a giant early hit, and then leaps in live action digitizing technology led to Mortal Kombat~, recognized as one of the most important titles in video game history. With it~s over the top darkly humorous gameplay and finishing moves, Mortal Kombat~became an instant franchise with iconic characters and enduring catch phrases.
 

So, what's the actual date of release now? Arcade 1up had it in March and Best Buy says Dec. 31, 2021. lol There are many of us eagerly awaiting to get this unit when Arcade 1up SAYS and sends an email stating it is READY for Preorder.

Does this come with a deck protector as well? I know the most recent ones have had it, but this does not specify.

New to 4K. This collection features the wonder of the entire Star Wars saga, capturing the moments from a young Anakin Skywalker's descent into the dark side to the rise of the Resistance and their struggle to restore peace in the galaxy. The story that electrified a generation comes to a striking conclusion.
 

In one unboxing video man said that Mark Hamill type each letter himself and signed it also, is it right? Or I will get just a copy of original letter?

HI Hidalgo. You get a small size copy of a letter that Mark Hamill typed and signed. It is not an original copy.

What versions of the films will be included? Theatrical, directors cut, extended cut, original and re-release of older films, extras like outtakes or other discs, 2 or 3 discs per film?

No versions from the 1977, 1980, 1983 theatrical run are going to be in this set nor will they be officially on Blu-ray or 4K. You can get a DVD copy of it from 2004, but the quality of those are dreadful. I know, I had them and threw them out. You can get the 1995 THX VHS and Laserdisc versions, still. Good luck on the machines playing them though as they are becoming extinct.

Hello, could you tell me what audio options and subtitles will include this collector's edition? Thanks and best regards

Hey Candyman, well it looks like all the movies have an upgraded sound added now, in the UHD 4K discs, they are Dolby ATMOS 7.1 English, then 5.1 for Spanish and French.
There are a few other foreign languages after those main three, looked like korean or middle eastern. Subtitles are there as well with several to choose from.

When the original trilogy first came out on DVD, the bonus material included a comprehensive "making of" documentary called "Empire of Dreams." It was a great film about the origin of "Star Wars." Is that documentary included in the material here?

Hi, No, unfortunately it is NOT in this set. It is only on that 2004 Star Wars Trilogy Bonus DVD that I know of, besides youtube.

What parts of star wars are there which are there so which films are there and how many making ofs are there

Your question is a bit confusing when you wrote it out, but I will try and answer...
There are the entire 9 Star Wars movies from the Skywalker Saga. Episodes I - IX.
Each movie has 3 discs, a 4K UHD, Blu-ray/Blu-ray special features, plus a digital copy. 27 Discs, total.
"ROGUE ONE" and "SOLO" will NOT be in this set.
You get the special box with the artwork and a letter from Mark Hamill, which does NOT have his original signature. It is a copy of it.
I am sure the special features will have what was previously brought over from the other releases already out.

Hang on to the 2011 Box Set that came out with the 9 Blu-ray discs, 3 of which were special features if you have that. It was re-released with Darth Vader on the front cover.
