I agree Shaun, the 5.1 remix was pretty decent. They added some sounds to the surrounds which really helped create a more immersive experience, and they did it without going overboard. I am very much looking forward to the commentaries. Haven't got there yet.

DAMN! My favorite Kurosawa film too. I'll still have to pick it up!

Awesome! Can't wait! My favorite Kurosawa film! And my favorite place to purchase DVD's is the first to confirm its arrival (that I know of anyway)! Sweet! :emoji_thumbsup:

Good question. I don't think that a single disc version has been officially confirmed, much less a release date.

[SIZE=02]Excellent post Mr. Harris!

Thanks Carl!!! Those screen shots certainly seem to show a clear improvement in the new version in terms of both color and sharpness! Excellent! Man, just looking at those screen shots reminds me of what a great movie this is, and the fact that I really need to buy this DVD! Damn...I...

Thanks for the link to that review Peter! Looks like there is hope after all! Thank God! I, too, will wait for the separate release though.

Point well taken Rich. I definitely agree with you regarding the marketing ploy used here. Just give us the opportunity to purchase this disc by itself, at a reasonable price!

Let's not jump the gun here guys. We only have one "review", and that person has not seen the FL edition. It is still possible that this new transfer is a great improvement over the FL edition. I will wait for more reviews to come in before making any final conclusions. I may be a bit...

Well, this is indeed very disappointing news! Is the transfer at least better than the previous version? Even if it is only a little better, I will probably purchase this when it is available as a single disc. That will happen, right? Must. own. this. movie.

:laugh:

Thanks a lot David! Don't you realize that we were all relying on you to act as the guinea pig and tell us how the transfer is on Ran??? ;) I really need this DVD, but I just can't justify the cost of this entire set.

This box set is to be shipped from Amazon on September 23rd. If anyone here receives this, please give us a review as soon as possible! Ran is one of my favorite movies, and I am dying for a better transfer of this great film! Have there been any specific announcements regarding the release...
