Yeah Road to Perdition is a good film and a good disc. I'd avoid The French Connection & Citizen Kane if the transfers have a chance of being iffy.

I have all the Universal Monster movies in the boxset. Harvey is a nice film :)
Might go for Road to Perdition + Fifth Element (I havent seen Fifth Element since I was 15) :o

Blade Runner 30th Anniversary BD - £12.64 delivered from Amazon Marketplace.

In your opinion, is this worth upgrading over the 5 DVD set (I wasnt sure if it had the same extras?)

If you mean 5 BD set, then no, but obviously if you've only got it on DVD then yeah definitely.

Thanks. You mean the Workprint now has HD Audio right?

The Final Cut's always had it (TrueHD). I've still never seen the Workprint. I must check out my BD one day.

I never owned the Criterion DVD, only the old MGM one. Surely its worth an upgrade over that?
How is it cropped anyway, the Criterion was 1.66/1?

I went for that bargain too.

Postage aside... $7.99 is an amazing price for a pre-order.
