~ Avoid this football movie, there are better! ~
on June 21, 2023
Posted by: 93Vet
Verified Purchase:Yes
I had hopes for this one due to the fact Al Pacino was in it as the head coach. His part was good and he did well in it.
Other than that, the movie was laden with F bombs, drug use, profanity every few seconds it seemed, nudity I did not want to see for a sports movie of this kind.
This is not a good one to see about a football team.
There are so many other ones that are better. Do your research.
Even Cameron Diaz uses the F word like it's a normal daily word use. Not a fan of her, overall.
I would not recommend this one.

~ MIRACLE on Blu-ray HD looks stunning ~
on June 21, 2023
Posted by: 93Vet
Verified Purchase:Yes
Kurt Russell stars as the Hockey coach that set up a team to take on and defeat anyone in the 1980 Winter Olympics.
The road was tough, but in the end, he had the best team in the entire world and won the USA Team a Gold medal, defeating the seemingly unbeatable Russian squad and the Finland team for the Gold medal round.
What a fantastic sports movie!
This is one of the best sports movies ever made. Hands down. Even if you are not a huge hockey fan, like myself, I loved it. I am a fan of Kurt Russell (Escape From New York, Escape From L.A., The Thing, Big Trouble in Little China).
This Blu-ray/DVD combo set is the best it is ever going to get. The HD Blu-ray is outstanding on the 4K player and TV.
I highly recommend!
Easy selections in the menus.

~ Lord of War makes its 4K steelbook entry ~
on June 16, 2023
Posted by: 93Vet
Verified Purchase:Yes
A great steelbook and 4K set for Nicolas Cage's "Lord of War" movie. Beautiful artwork from Lionsgate as usual.
Nice slipcover for it as well. They have been producing some great steelbooks and am really enjoying adding what I can to the 4K/Blu-ray library.
The movie is a little long, it's more drama than anything else, but Nicolas Cage does a great job for his role.
Jared Leto plays his younger brother in the movie.
I do recommend if you like Nicolas Cage as an actor and like collecting these steelbooks.
Get it while the price is fairly good.
We get the 4K, Blu-ray edition, digital copy, nice slipcover for the steelbook.

Great job on this 4K edition!

Beautiful movie, but I think the 4K itself could have been a bit better overall. Glad to have it just the same. It is an improvement, overall, but slight. I have good 4K player and TV, plus a decent soundbar.
Rocky must now defend his title from an up-and-coming fighter, played by Mr. T.
Steelbook is fabulous, artwork throughout!

~ Cliffhanger gets the 4K Steelbook 30th Ann. Ed.!
on June 7, 2023
Posted by: 93Vet
Verified Purchase:Yes
A beautiful 30th Anniversary Edition of Stallone's Cliffhanger!
This is one of his very best movies he ever did. For me, it is in my top 5 of his. Rocky being number one.
The transfer is better than the previous release in some ways, but it depends greatly on the equipment you are watching this new 4K edition on.
The Steelbook looks great, a nice matte finish with loads of artwork.
Audio is:
English Dolby Atmos 7.1
English DTS-HD Master Audio 5.1
French 5.1
French Dolby Surround
Spanish Dolby Surround
(This is the 4K disc)
There is special feature Deleted Scenes which there are a total of 17 selected from the main menu.
*This was not on the previous 4K release. (New)
Overall, appears to be a really good edition.
Blu-ray looks and sounds good as well. Both discs have artwork on them from the movie. Excellent.
Includes a Digital copy.

May 31, 2023
I can agree with you to a certain extent. Maybe they were not specific enough in the listing details as they should have been. Since these movies have been out for years now, most of them on Blu-ray, this set is a limited steelbook 4K UHD edition for the movies, and a special features disc for the extra content.
Yes, the listing does not say that. There are no Digital copies here in the listing either on Best Buy.

Arrow already did a HD Blu-ray version of this prior. Same slipcover design, only that one was a better slipcover with a graphic sheen to it.
This 4K edition only has a booklet included on the movie. They did the same thing for FLATLINERS and AMERICAN WEREWOLF IN LONDON.

What steelbook do you own? The one pictured is the one I own and there is most certainly inside artwork and on back. The disc itself is blue colored. They are not putting out another one just for a 4K edition. Disc only with the typical black holder.

Hey, thanks for the info. on the damaged steel slipcover, it looks like this is more than just you it is happening to.
I somewhat disagree with your comment as far as best looking steelbook so far this year. 1996's Ghost In The Shell gets my vote. I do believe that came out this year, 2023. If not, I stand corrected. The artwork on that is just superior in all directions.

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.

Not sure, but I asked the Best Buy tech on duty and he sold me one similar to this one for my Galaxy 21 phone.
It works well. My advice to you would be to go in person if you can and tell them your question. They should point you to the correct item that will work for you.

Most steelbook editions contain the DVD as well. Do any of these contain the DVD's? And none of the special features are listed. I am particularly interested if the 4k/blu-ray have extra features that the DVD's do not. Thanks for your quick reply. Cathy

No, there is no standard DVD in this one or the newest release with different artwork.

The special features are on the Blu-ray disc itself.
Behind the scenes, gaffes/goof real, etc.

The Terminator returns in this explosive action-adventure spectacle. Now he's one of the good guys, sent back in time to protect John Connor, the boy destined to lead the freedom fighters of the future. Sarah Connor, John's mother, a quintessential survivor has been institutionalized for her warning of the nuclear holocaust she knows is inevitable. Together, the threesome must find a way to stop the ultimate enemy-the T-1000, the most lethal Terminator ever created.

Most of these did when they were first made. Now, I am not sure if you would get one with this purchase.
