This is the biggest iTunes sale that I can remember in quite some time. Even those of us with really large libraries are very likely to find a few titles worth getting.
There are 3 different versions of Salt on sale. One is the Extended Cut (only in HD). The other two are theatrical 4K Dolby Vision/Dolby Atmos. I can't figure out what the difference is. They appear to be identical.
I've never seen the film, but would like to see the original version. I just was trying to avoid paying $25 to see it that way, but I may just have to go that route.
Does anyone know anything about the color timing on John Badham's 1979 Dracula? I'm assuming it's the muted colors from previous releases. Universal dropped a handful of $4.99 films a couple of hours ago and this is one I don't own.
Pretty much, although I was happy to pick up Lost Highway. I own the inferior UK release on Blu-Ray but it has a pitch issue. I never bothered to pick up the Kino release because of the price, so getting this for $4.99 means I can finally retire my old Blu-Ray.
True Lies is now available in HD via Vudu's M2D program. It's clearly an older scan but it's substantially better than any physical release so far (although it might be on par with the D-VHS release). It was totally worth the $5 to me.
True, but I was thinking there was probably never a code for that title and since it's not MA, I couldn't think of any other way one would own it on iTunes.
I don't believe it has.
I bought the theatrical version (it went on sale a day or two before the Unrated) but it contains both versions of the film. The Unrated probably has both versions as well, but I'd check first.
I bought a copy of Oliver Stone's The Doors a couple of weeks ago in one of the sales for $4.99. I was pleasantly surprised to see it's already upgraded to 4K/Atmos/Dolby Vision.
There's no issue with it. Arrow licensed the film from Universal for Blu-Ray and had included it as one of their $3.99 iTunes sale titles a few weeks ago. Digital rights still belonged to Universal, so the Arrow version got removed. I believe Crawdaddy said the two versions were identical in...
It's a lot of fun, just know that the iTunes version is only available dubbed. I can't imagine what the reasoning is there since the DVDs had the Japanese track.
For those who've don't already own it, Lawrence Of Arabia 4K is now $4.99.
I could probably find 30 or 40 titles I want from this sale. I'm going to sit down this evening and prioritize my wants vs what I want to spend.
