I think that may be true - for the moment that is.

I think it's an offer, uhm... well, you know, I had to do this, of course.)

Re: Godfather Blu-ray Confirmed


Seems like a nice price, too, Cees.

There is an embedded video, too, showing off the restoration (as best you can in such a small internet window).




There's Jessie the yodeling cowgirl. Bullseye, he's Woody's horse. Pete the old prospector. And, Woody, the man himself. Of course, it's time for Woody's RoundUp. He's the very best! He's the rootinest, tootinest cowboy in the wild, wild west!

I just visited Amazon.uk, and must admit that the Region 2 boxed set is impressive, and has an appealing price tag.

It's good to hear that the new restoration is getting high marks from the user reviews.

Re: Godfather Blu-ray Confirmed


And it's a five-disc set. Three films and two with extras. In a metal box.
The extras are ... nice, ample, not really "impressive". But that price (£17.98) is certainly a good one for the three movies alone.

And there I was thinking Robert Harris looked like Richard Attenborough.

Goodness - you look very young!

Interesting. I wish they went into a little more detail, but the info is appreciated.

Re: Godfather Blu-ray Confirmed


Amazon is selling "The Godfather" Blu-ray boxset for $61.95 today. That's a $13.00 savings over their previous low sale price of this release.

That's great!
And the Pre-Order Price Guarantee secures that price for anyone who pre-ordered!

According to the "rules" on their site, you will see the price change on your summary within 24 hours!

Re: Godfather Blu-ray Confirmed


Great price especially since when I pre-ordered a couple months ago it was $86.95.

It's even a buck cheaper then the DVD set!! How funny is that? Someone should post a notice in the SD thread, I would but they have conniption fits when you mention Blu-ray in there. "The studios are forcing me into blu-ray" and all that other paranoia.



The Collection (Blu-Ray High Definition/DVD)

Pre-orders - BLU-RAY: Akira, The Dark Knight, The Day the Earth Stood Still, Death Proof, King Kong, La Femme Nikita, Planet Terror, Raging Bull, Ronin, The Third Man DVD: .................
