Loved the movie ever since it debuted! This 4K edition shines even further now! Loved the whole package!
Nice slipcover and artwork on discs as well. This new 4K scan from the original camera negative is superb! I think this is going to be the best it will ever look. Nice that is comes with a newer Blu-ray version as well.
Get this soon! Every Horror library has to have it.

~ The Running Man on 4K UHD! Buyer beware of image
on July 20, 2023
Posted by: 93Vet
What a fantastic movie of Arnold's from 1987. The movie has never looked or sounded so good on 4K UHD!! I mean that absolutely! The Blu-ray has been out for quite some time, but you can get that newer version of it separately if you choose. I would recommend this 4K UHD big time though for the 4K video equipment, player, soundbar, etc.
I have to subtract 1 star for the advertisement here on Best Buy due to now showing the proper images for purchase. It shows the Steelbook version, however, it is not. Per other customers that have reviewed it seeing that image, they did not get the steelbook edition. The Steelbook edition is absolutely gorgeous if you can get that, I recommend!
Keep any previous Blu-ray for the special features, not much here in the way for that. Just the movie on 4K UHD and a Digital Copy.
Narrated by Academy Award~ winner Cate Blanchett, Journey to the South Pacific will take moviegoers on a breathtaking IMAX~ adventure to the rich tropical islands of remote West Papua, where life flourishes above and below the sea.

An uplifting story of hope and celebration, Journey to the South Pacific highlights the importance of living in balance with the ocean planet we all call home.

Baz Luhrmann's expectedly electric biopic of the King of Rock 'n' Roll offers an arresting central performance by Austin Butler, as the peaks and valleys of Elvis Presley's performing career are recounted through the deathbed reflections of ex-manager Colonel Tom Parker (Tom Hanks), the Southern Svengali who cannily trained the Tupelo youngster's charismatic gifts on the American public-and just as ruthlessly exploited them. Olivia DeJonge, Richard Roxburgh, Helen Thomson also star. 159 min. Widescreen; Soundtrack English. Two-disc set.

One of the best High School football movies ever made. Looks good and sounds good on the 4K TV and Sony 4K player!
Nearing the 20th Anniversary for this movie, I say take a look at this one, perhaps on a Friday Night for the feel of it when football games were played during the season.

Although nothing like the original in black and white, this is an updated 1999 version starring some good actors. One being Ms. Catherine Zeta Jones. Wow, she is so good looking in the '90s. This 4K edition really brings out all the details now on the format and the sound has been upgraded from the previous Blu-ray edition. All features have been brought over for this nicely done movie. Menu and selection options are good. The movie is not scary, but it does have some tense moments for an overall good one. The movie is 4 stars, but this upgrade to the 4K format gets another one for me over the Blu-ray.

This one is a mixed bag for a Star Wars movie. I did enjoy it and the storyline, but some of the dialogue was poorly written. Action was decent and characters were good, overall. I do have a problem with the droid helping the young Lando Calrissian. The dialogue is awful on it and the whole thing about a droid seeking "equal rights" is just a stupid segment to even begin with.
Ron Howard is a decent director for the most part, but at times this movie lacked it for his caliber.
The actor portraying Han Solo was good, but not sure they cast the best one since this is 10 years before A NEW HOPE. There we see a much more aged and mature Han Solo with Chewie.
The overall storyline was decent as it is the ongoing Empire vs all planets that don't want to be ruled by them with fighting taking place, etc.
The 4K looked fairly good on the non HDR 4K TV in the Sony 4K player. I do have to say that HDR may add more black levels to this, so you may have to adjust for that.
Menus are good with sound and commentary to choose from, etc. Special features are good.
I do recommend, but find a good price for this one if you don't have it already.
The ending of this movie was my favorite part of it where Han and Chewie (now owners of the Falcon) take off for a planet called Tatooine to see a crime boss, Jabba The Hutt.
Alternate Dimension Being Yapool started invading Earth with an entourage of Terrible-Monsters that were more powerful than ordinary monsters. The Terrestrial Defense Force was annihilated. Ultraman Ace has been sent from Nebula M78 Land of Light

I really like this Steelbook it’s pretty cool. Lionsgate knows how to make a great Steelbook and this one is pretty awesome. But the only dislike about this is that I didn’t have a chance to finish the movie. Like after hour and a half the sounds just cut off while I was watching the movie. For the 4K and the Blu-Ray. I was very disappointed and had to return it and sadly, they didn’t had any copy of the Steelbook and the regular 4K. Wish I could give this a better rating but couldn’t, I was let down.
Audiences were mesmerized in 1982 by Disney~s release of the film Tron, a groundbreaking fusion of live action and computer animation, setting the special effects stage for decades to come. Video game players were equally drawn to the Tron arcade cabinet, widely considered the most beautiful design ever. Arcade1Up is incredibly proud to produce the Tron home arcade cabinet, among the most requested by hardcore retrogamers. Awarded "Coin-Operated Game of the Year" by Electronic Games magazine, Tron was revered for its gameplay and gorgeous aesthetic. The Arcade1Up Tron home arcade cabinet stays true to what made the game such a draw in 1982, right down to its signature inner lit blue joystick. Also included is the marquee game~s sequel, Discs of Tron.

Pricey, inconsistent controls, but nostalgic
ByJDThird
I spent a lot of time standing in front of one of these in the arcade back when they came out. And I haven't seen one since I enlisted in '85 so I had to get this just as a sop to my memories of happy times during childhood.
This isn't my first Arcade 1up cabinet, but it's by far the most expensive. I don't see the value here OTHER than for that nostalgia factor. There isn't anything here that warrants the price otherwise compared to some of the other games.
That being said, if you can get past the price point and want it, it definitely does bring back those days.
Assembly is pretty standard, although in this set the smallest piece, that is a small bit of wood material about 6 inches long that goes angled on the top above the screen to support the top cover, was much flimsier in here than in my last one. It split with the tiniest bit of snugging the screw down. It was still usable, and I was very careful with the second one, but keep that in mind.
Beyond that, I put it together myself and didn't have any issues with the build I do have a bit of dissapointment with the fitting of the graphic panel just under the joystick - it's not straight and so didn't line up well with the piece underneath it. I may have to pop the back and put some gorilla tape or something on it to keep it lined up better.
The other disappointment is with the joystick. Not anywhere near as good as the original. So light cycles, for example, it gets a lot of inputs that you aren't intending. And the ability to do those tiny little smallest jinks while driving the light cycle are nothing like what you could do with the original.
Sounds are spot on though, and the music is as well. So it's good for a stroll down memory lane even if it's not as good to play as it was. But for the price I expected better.
Thank you for your review! I have been watching this as well to see who would buy one and what it would be like. The price point is just too much, and now you say the controls are not as good, etc. Well, hopefully, there will be a mod available at some point to fix that joystick.
This movie of course was no where on par with the first two. It is worth watching as I think all of them are except for the one with Busta Rhymes in it. This is a classic so buy it and watch it. Too bad they dont make a monster Halloween box set.
Very cool artwork. The picture is way better than my Blu Ray Steelbook. It even has the German audio in 7.1. Arnies English voice is a Desaster..haha..anyhow, one negative part is, that the version does not contain the extended and just the theatrical version :(… However, it’s one of the best Action movie ever made!

Poor Presentation, no slip, discs come stacked on each other. Should have been in a 3 disc flip style case.
Well, this is the second time on 4K for these movies. I believe the first was a digibook style case. They are only rereleasing these to coincide with the newest Spider-Man movie that has all 3 of the guys in it. I'm sure if they sell enough of this set, they will undoubtedly put out a steel book version of it to make even more money. Slip covers, for the most part, are becoming hard to find now. The money is in the steel book casing.

I previously commented that this set was released as a Digipack version. I stand corrected, it came in a LEGACY Edition Steel book version 4K and Blu-ray of all 5 previous Spider-Man movies, plus Blu-rays.

Movie good, packaging bad
Bykritical485
The movies are entertaining however I am disappointed with the packaging. I do not like stacked discs and this set did not add anything extra. Not even a slip cover. I would recommend buying at a discounted price.
I am most likely going to save up for that LEGACY Edition Steelbook that has all of the previous 4K Spider-Man movies and blu-rays in it I believe. Thanks for the honest review.
I love The Matrix trilogy, that's why I bought this movie also (to have the complete collection), but this movie was a 5/10. The quality and design of this SteelBook is 6/10. If you are a fan of the movie, buy it.

55th Anniversary Money Grab
ByMchamb70
As a life long Star Trek fan I purchased this box set to go with my collection. I would say that these are a good 4K transfer but not really much of an upgrade over the Blu-ray.
It is nice having a digital copies however these are on paramount and not able to be used on Movies anywhere.
No Dolby Atmos
The Motion Picture is currently being upgraded to the directors cut 4K with Dolby Atmos.. the others will probably soon follow.
I don't know which set up you are watching your discs on, but these most certainly DO have Dolby Atmos on them. They look better than ever now in 4K and am very happy to have them. A good 4K player combined with a good 4K TV with HDR is the best set up.
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.

It did when it first came out on 4K. I don't think it can be found in the brick-and-mortar stores with one now in 2022, 5 years later. You may have to go to ebay for one.
