Just wondering if this classic is ever going to get a Blu release?
Never realized that when I saw Rollerball in 70mm in 1975 I was viewing a classic. That said compared to much of today's output I guess you can consider this film a class act.tele1962 said:Just wondering if this classic is ever going to get a Blu release?
I never understand the wording 'original mono track' when used for a film that was originally presented in stereo. Perhaps it's how most people viewed the film but Rollerball was certainly a stereo film from the beginning.McCrutchy said:I have also pre-ordered (or to steal a phrase from ROclockCK, "panic-bought" ), and am glad I did.
Something tells me this one will not be around very long, possibly selling out prior to shipping. Lest we forget, the extras you may not know are from the SE DVD that MGM saw fit to release only outside North America, and since the TT BD is all-region and worldwide-compatible, I would not be surprised to see a lot of international buyers for this one. And TT appear to have hit every mark this time, with not only the isolated score and 5.1 audio, but also the original mono track--all in lossless quality.
I am thoroughly looking forward to revisiting the film.
I would'nt call this film a classic,but It did have a fine performance by James Caan.Paul Rossen said:Never realized that when I saw Rollerball in 70mm in 1975 I was viewing a classic. That said compared to much of today's output I guess you can consider this film a class act.

Not a classic in your opinions of course.trajan said:I would'nt call this film a classic,but It did have a fine performance by James Caan.
Who signed the copies of Alfredo Garcia?ROclockCK said:I just bought it...no panic.
My only keystroke mania was just trying to nab a signed Alfredo Garcia. Man, that disappeared fast...
