It's the best possible master available to buy and that's what is being used and clearly stated so anyone who dislikes Storaro treatments can make a bodyswerve. I think that's pretty fair? |

If they did pay for the rights before they saw what master they were getting that's a huge shame as this will hurt Arrow a lot. If I wasn't someone that dwelled forums and picked this Blu Ray up only to see that it was cropped I would never buy an Arrow release again. I'd avoid those fancy white boxes like the plague from then on. If they saw the master and still decided to release anyway that was a very poor decision. Blu Ray is a prestige format, so buying a Blu Ray only to discover that the film was cropped would steer me well clear of a company's releases for good. |

Almar - don't Arrow have any say in how the film is presented? I'm only asking because I don't know how these things work. And is there any reason why the BU master isn't available to Arrow?

I don't know why it wasn't available but Arrow do try every avenue. You don't get to see materials before you buy a film - weird but generally true - so you can end up then having to search yourself for better materials but at some point, when you've exhausted options available to you, you go with the best you can.

i understand, of course you want to big up the release but i also think in this day and age honesty is the best policy, no-one likes to feel hoodwinked. it's like saying: special features - fully restored 4:3 cropped version with original print damage. doesn't make much sense does it? i would simply suggest not listing it as a special feature, and maybe including a small disclaimer as shameless have done when the film is cut or features footage of varying quality, i think people will always react better to this kind of honesty, and are more likely to be understanding of the fact that this situation was imposed on arrow. |

well yes i'm exaggerating to make the point, but nonetheless this is a cropped version of bird no matter how you phrase it, and i don't think anyone could consider that a special feature. i think i will leave it there as i don't wish to keep bludgeoning the fairly minor point i'm trying to make. thank you for taking the time respond to me almar, you know i only wish the very best for arrow so all my comments come from a well meaning place. |
