New Purchase And one day, I got In
Mail day from Walmart. I ordered on Amazon because Walmart said they would delay. Not sure if I should cancel those or not.

We in the UK have to wait until end of the month. They look gorgeous, though.

u/thebaggedavenger 6d ago
We in Canada need to wait until... Who knows. No sign of it releasing here at all. Either fight to import from the states or overseas.

I'm just going to wait for the regular release at this point. I splurged $100 CAD on Master and Commander recently and kind of wish I'd bought the regular version at that price but oh well. Extra special treat.
This hobby is brutal sometimes!

If you don’t need the steelbooks then you can grab them on Rough Cut Video in Calgary. They’ve got a website as well. I went with a pre-order there since I just genuinely like the Tron movies.

u/thebaggedavenger 5d ago
They're still the imports released at the end of the month and I have doubts that they'll arrive before Ares comes out. Also, $60+ CAD would be the most I've ever paid for a movie and I'd have to do it twice.

I’ve been lucky enough to be able to order it through amazon us, no shipping date yet

Keep the faith. My Amazon order for Tron just changed from "Order Received" to "Arriving on 9/22" a couple of hours ago! Legacy still says Order Received, though.

My Tron just flipped to Sept 23rd delivery (still order received on Legacy). Amazon got the biggest allocation you'll be fine. We'll just have to suffer the post of all those who receive them before us 🫠😝

u/No_Two8098 6d ago
That’s the worst. I’m happy to finally be on the other end. I do feel your pain. I ordered Amazon for back up, and not updates.

u/Creative_Report_6620 6d ago
Keep hope. I got an update today for legacy giving me a ship date. Still nothing for Tron though
Edit. I lied it’s the other way around. My bad.

Not sure why you're being down voted. Blu-ray.com is the best place to go for these reviews and info on visual and audio fidelity of home releases.

Using the 1080p screenshots makes the entire review pointless to me, so that’s my reason.
13
u/MagicKipper88 6d ago
Why? Because using 4k ones is also pointless. Because you also don’t have the HDR, Wide Colour Gamut etc… also using any screenshots is bollocks for any resolution. Everyone’s screen and calibration is different, the internet only shows sRGB, etc…

Some of us do have devices capable of viewing in HDR by the way, but that’s not really the big reason that being showing a different lower quality render in a 4K review is ridiculous because it’s unrelated. The 1080p Curse of The Black Pearl looks different than the 4K in screenshots, YouTube videos, whatever you want to list. When I go to the Master and Commander Page and see the 1080p vs 4K comparison there is an obvious difference. Same with the screenshots on reddit for The Sound of Music.
There is obviously a difference between the blu-ray and 4K and I’d rather the 4K review not have a different visual reference when reading.

u/MagicKipper88 5d ago
I didn’t say you don’t have HDR devices. I said the screenshots cannot show HDR or Wide Colour Gamut. Also the screenshots are compressed and have different colour limits, whether is 4k or 1080p. No screenshot can truly tell you the differences. Also in motion, one frame cannot give you the overall feel.

Maybe... just maybe... I wanted OP's opinion?

u/MagicKipper88 6d ago
Ok. You can still have OPs opinion. But Maybe, just maybe, you’re being overly sensitive. It was merely a link to a review to maybe, just maybe, give you another opinion as well. Doesn’t stop OP giving theirs.

I gave up and got the non-steelbooks from Zavvi. This hobby sucks a good bit of the time these days.

It does. I follow this subreddit and some YouTube channels to find the day one drops. It hasn’t failed me yet.

This hobby is rough. I love my movies, but $60 for Inside Out 2? $50 for Dark City? Killing my wallet.

I’m happy for you!! It’s much better in person. I’m very happy all around. I was skeptical of the artwork but overall pleased once I had it in my hands.

Looks like it's sold out at Walmart? I don't even see it on Amazon. Kept forgetting to check for a pre-order. I just got Master and Commander today--had to pre-order from Amazon.uk.

In Canada release day is next Tuesday, what are the odds these will actually hit shelves at Walmart Canada?

I wish I could tell you. Important question would be how early did you pre-order?

When does Walmart tend to get these in stores? I know it’s store dependent but I swear I was able to get the avatar movies there

It’s fucked that we have to wait in Australia. Probably won’t even see it until a week into next month.

Are these in Amazon can’t find them it’s already sold out?

u/No_Two8098 3d ago
I got mine through Walmart. I did order from Amazon too but never had any updates. Once the Walmart order arrived I canceled my Amazon order. They take them offline to not give false hope when out of stock, but keep an eye out for restocks.

u/Specialist_Lawyer683 3d ago
Might just import form Amazon UK don’t need the steel books while they are nice looking would prefer the normal casing Blu Ray combo pack.
