Atrocious art.. Too busy.
I haven't upgraded to 4k for this film. Do you think it's worth it?

Imo yes.

 

[Todd_Z]

Absolutely worth the 4K upgrade. What is it lately with these steelbook designs being so bad. Is it the same designer??? Lethal Weapon, Dirty, Harry, Bond Set, Ace Ventura etc They all seem to be sub par lately.

Huh?

It sure would be (for me) had they included the long hoped-for 3D conversion that was released to theaters a few years back.

You make an excellent point

Would it have killed Universal to include the 3D conversion in this offering?

I have no plans to keep repurchasing JAWS on disc, but had they included that 3D version, I think they would have forced more of us into a purchase.

We can hope that Turbine releases it. They have a good relationship with Universal. I just picked up Super Mario Brothers.

They have a few announcements left, and I hope they are saving the best (Jaws) for last.

I will buy this steelbook. It may be busy but I like it. I own the original 4K steelbook, and this will be my first double dip in that format.

Never heard of Turbine. Are they International?

If they do announce, please come back and let us know. Thanks.

Another here that would have dipped again (I've lost count of how many times I've bought this film) if they'd included the 3D version. Without it, I'll pass.

 

[TravisR]

Atrocious art.. Too busy.

Yeah, the front cover has too many things on it but I really like the back with the "Beach closed" sign.

Of course it’s worth it. It looks and sounds spectacular in 4K.

 

[Robert Saccone]

New Documentary. Double dipping. I have Jaws in every format from Super 8 Sound up to 4K. I wish Universal would release the 3D Jaws in iTunes it would look spectacular on the Vision Pro.

 

[TravisR]

New Documentary.

I missed that in the press release since it wasn't part of the special features list. Welp, they got my money again.

 

[Jeffrey D]

Yes I’ll buy this new release because of the new documentary.

 

[JoshZ]

Huh?
How can a mono be surround?

That's what happens when the A.I. programmed to design the case art does a copy/paste from some template without understanding what the words mean.

 

[FincherFan]

i understand a 50 year old film may have some flaws with the negative or audio, but what exactly was restored? if it's too much to list, is there a link to an article or even a youtube videoclip?
