Really interested to see how the AV Quality turns out on this. Older releases of Last Starfighter looked heavily pixilated and/or mushy. Also nice to see Arrow throwing in the original 4.1 even though I doubt its seriously different from the 5.1 that was on the old dvd.

I really hope this is an improvement over what's currently available. Help us out here, Arrow!

A fave.

Summer ‘84 was awesome!

I'm interested in the specs.

I'm interested in the specs.

Me too. Arrow has been doing some pretty great things with their releases over the past year or two, so I'm hopeful that this will be another feather in their cap.

You might want to check on that. If you ordered from Diabolik, they charge your method of payment at the time of the pre-order, and only offer store credit if you cancel. No refunds.

This is one title that most of sci-fi movie owners have in many incarnations. I'll have to stick with my 25th Anniversary Edition BD.

If you don't own it, then this is probably the one to get.

This release is a HUGE improvement over the 25th Anniversary Blu-ray. If you love the film it's well worth the upgrade.

Yup, the prior Blu-ray was a big DNR smear-fest.
