The Abyss - Page 5

I was about to share this on Facebook when I realized it is way too nerdy to explain why this is great news.

 

So I'll just say it here: This is great news!

The Abyss on blu will be a first day buy. It's Cameron's most under-rated movie; the SE is simply fantastic. I'm hoping for a new commentary - Cameron, Harris, Biehn, etc.

I hope that the new transfer of THE ABYSS will also be released in standard def, for those of us who don't have Blu Ray.  So far, we haven't even had an anamorphic transfer of the film.

Apparently The Abyss is not being worked on. There is a HD transfer from 2005 that is awaiting JC's approval, but otherwise, nada going on. Yet.

Hello,

 

There is a new edition available in China from Excel Media (region 6 DVD9) with the following details :

ntsc extended cut, DTS 6.1, DD EX 6.1, 16:9 anamorphic widescreen

Also available is True Lies (same company), same details.

I bought these 2 titles for around $10 each.  Nice picture and sound quality.

this is a great site~ I love it-

I really hope some news comes out about The Abyss- I also hope that someone called Van to be part of the Blu-ray production-

The Abyss is very high on my most-wanted list of Blu-ray upgrades but Cameron is so sloooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooow in putting it out, it's ridiculous. There's gotta be a good hi-def master lying around by now. I'll be retired by the time this comes out. I think he secretly owns Grindhouse Releasing, an outfit that releases one movie every five years.

Its like Van said elsewhere on this site, the Master VIn was waiting for approval on was done in 2005- Cameron has said he wanted to go back and use the same process to remaster the abyss that he used on aliens-

i would guess we still have some time to wait.
