Here’s something very exciting: For all those of you who missed out on Umbrella Entertainment’s excellent Super Mario Bros.: Trust the Fungus 30th Anniversary Collector’s Edition 4K and Blu-ray release—which sold out very quickly—the company has decided to produce a new 1UP Edition of the release that duplicates all of the content but isn’t limited and numbered. Here’s what that looks like (click here or on the image below to pre-order it)...
Sony Pictures Home Entertainment has set Luc Besson’s La Femme Nikita (1990) for release on 4K Ultra HD Steelbook on 6/11. The film has been restored from the original camera negative and will feature Dolby Vision HDR, along with both English 5.1 DTS-HD MA and 2.0 French DTS-HD MA audio. Note that the title will not include a Blu-ray.
And for you music fans, we hinted at this a few weeks ago but now it’s finally official: Eagle Vision will release Peter Gabriel: Back to Front Live in London (2013) in 4K Ultra HD on 5/10! The concert includes a live performance of the entire So album, along with re-imagined versions of many of Gabriel’s other hit songs. The title will come with a 16-page booklet, as well as both 5.1 DTS-HD Master Audio and PCM stereo tracks.
Don’t forget that this is the last week to vote for the 2024 Home Entertainment Media Play Awards. Click here or on the image below to get your votes in!
And we’ll leave you today with a look at the cover artwork for Criterion’s complete June slate of titles, all of which are now available for pre-order on Amazon, along with the Peter Gabriel, the new Queen 4K release, and Warner’s new Batman 4K Steelbook...
Stay tuned!
