Looks familiar.
Which Hurricane?RJ992 said:Warms my heart to see that cover again! Agree it should have been used for the BD release. I wish more companies do what SHout Factory does...offer both new and original cover art. Lost my LD copy in a hurricane so I'm eagerly anticipating the new disc.
Except for that giant puke-green ratings box in the lower left corner.classicmovieguy said:Well lookie here... the German Blu-ray (coming on July 31) has cover art which blows the US release out of the water...

Both Taylor and Young are prominently featured in The Journey Back and discuss the film. Are you assuming they have something new to say about the film they didn't say before? BTW, the now retired Yvette Mimieux is also still with us but she's notoriously reticent about discussing her film career these days. Getting her for the blu would have been a feather in someone's cap.Tommy R said:Was REALLY hoping for some new bonus material. Rod Taylor and Alan Young are still around but they're both getting up there. Oh well, still glad to be getting it on blu.
Floyd. Bastard took my cherished vinyl records too.ahollis said:Which Hurricane?
Well Rod Taylor was the host of it, and didn't really talk too much in-depth. Just a bunch of general talk about how the film and George Pal were great. Alan Young only appeared in the nice little mini-sequel towards the end. The doc as a whole really just follows the construction and the fate of the time machine prop itself. It's a GREAT doc, but I feel that there is MUCH more that could be said about the rest of the film. Not just from Taylor and Young, but any surviving crew person or even Eloi/Morlock extras. I know David Pal, George Pal's son, had a hand in the film and could give some in-depth talk. Perhaps I'm just spoiled on releases like the Lord of the Rings films where the special features are almost as long as the films themselves. This is a movie where I could watch hours upon hours of supplemental material and not get bored.Thomas T said:Both Taylor and Young are prominently featured in The Journey Back and discuss the film.

Ain't that the truth! I still wish they'd license titles to Germany, France, Australia and Japan and get this thing on the move!Billy Batson said:If any proof was needed as to the lack of catalogue releases from Warner, this thread is it. It's like it's been going of forever, & the Blu-ray is not released 'till July!Warner; announce it, release it & on to the next one.
I hope you're right. But now, Amazon doesn't even list the Blu (though they do list a DVD with the same cover art as the Blu). Hhmmmm.bluelaughaminute said:It looks like the release date is going to change and Amazon don't know what to. But you should be able to delete it from the saved section and pre-order it regardless
Same thing has occurred with 300: RISEHotRodHank said:Brad here (Kyrsten Brad) Something screwy this way comes. I went to move my pre -order of The Time Machine from Save for Later to Purchase (in Amazon) and can't do it. It now shows the title as Unavailable. What gives?

Lets keep a eye on this.
