UK: Total Recall SE (July 16th)

[Markgway]

I'll wait until it's under £7 as I already have the current release.

The new transfer looks fantastic and worth the money.

Apparently there are even more extras than first thought, for example if you select the German language option on the menu there is another audio commentary (in German, with English subtitles). Select the French and there are 2 more extras (not English friendly).

I wonder how it compares with the Lionsgate SE?

[grim_tales]

The transfer looks bloody fantastic from what I checked, but I wish when doing the "Restoration Comparison" thing they'd make it fairer like compare it with the previous BD, or even the DVDs, not some washed out VHS or TV print were the contrast is far too high and you can hardly see anything.

reading elsewhere they've altered the colours to make it look more like a new movie?

[grim_tales]

It does seem darker than I remember and the colour of the sky on Mars at the end looks different Colour is overall better though.

Supposedly director approved.
