All right, we’ve got some big news for you today—I’m talking really good stuff. But first as always, we have new disc reviews for you…

I’ve just shared my thoughts on Eleanor Coppola, Fax Bahr, and George Hickenlooper’s legendary Hearts of Darkness: A Filmmaker’s Apocalypse (1991) documentary as newly-remastered in 4K Ultra HD, as well as Akira Kurosawa’s Ran (1985) in 40th Anniversary Collector’s Edition 4K Ultra HD, both from the good people at StudioCanal in the UK.

I've also finally posted my review of Guy Hamilton’s Diamonds are Forever (1971) in 4K Ultra HD from Amazon MGM Studios via Warner Bros. Home Entertainment—the last title in the 007: Sean Connery 6-Film Collection 4K box set that I hadn't yet reviewed before the website went wonky a couple months ago. Work getting the site working again and back up to speed prevented me from posting it, so now I'm finally caught up (and I know that some of you were waiting on Diamonds, so there you go).

Also, just yesterday I reviewed Robert Greenwald’s Xanadu (1980) in 4K Ultra HD from Kino Lorber Studio Classics.

Stephen has reviewed Kim Ki-duk’s Yongary, Monster from the Deep (1967) in 4K Ultra HD from Vinegar Syndrome.

Stuart has offered his take on Paul Vecchiali’s Rosa la Rose: fille publique (1986) on Blu-ray from Radiance Films, as well as Imprint’s Directed by… David Lean – Volume One Blu-ray box set, which includes In Which We Serve (1942), This Happy Breed (1944), Blithe Spirit (1945), Brief Encounter (1945), Great Expectations (1946), and Oliver Twist (1948).

Dennis has reviewed Hugh A. Robertson’s Melinda (1972) and John G. Avildsen’s Lean On Me (1989) both on Blu-ray from the Warner Archive Collection.

And Tim has taken a look at Yoshiyuki Kuroda’s The Invisible Swordsman (1970) on Blu-ray from Arrow Video.

We’ll have more disc reviews for you next week, so be sure to check back then.

Now then… Arrow Video is getting ready to announce its November slate of Blu-ray and 4K Ultra HD titles, and retail leaks reveal that it will include some great 4K catalog titles licensed from New Line and Warner Bros! [Read on here...]

Afternoon Bits readers! We hope you all had a good weekend—a good long Memorial Day weekend for those of you who live here in the States.

We’ve got some great 4K catalog release news for you here today, but first we have more new disc reviews...

First up, I’ve reviewed Ridley Scott’s Kingdom of Heaven: Director’s Cut (2005) in 4K Ultra HD from 20th Century Studios via Sony Pictures Home Entertainment. It’s a fantastic release that streets on Tuesday. But we know it’s been hard to pre-order, so we’re waiting to hear back from Sony on the demand issue and we’ll let you know when we do. In the meantime, my review is lengthy and in-depth, so enjoy.

Also, Stephen has reviewed David Cronenberg’s The Brood (1979) in 4K Ultra HD from Second Sight Films.

Tim has shared his thoughts on Gordon Flemying’s Dr. Who and the Daleks (1965) in Blu-ray from Severin Films.

And finally, Dennis has offered his take on Roger Kumble’s Just Friends (2005) on Blu-ray from the Warner Archive Collection.

Now then, the big news today is that the Criterion Collection is working on a 10-film Wes Anderson Collection for release later this year! [Read on here...]
