Bond Blu-ray and 4k Film Club (Page 4 of 25)

I had a quick look on eBay and the players seem still very expensive.
Would anyone know,  where they supposed to be better quality than
VHS ?

I take it you snapped up those discs then, AOS?

I would have, if I had some Money on me 

I like to think walking around without money, is  what it's
Like to be Royalty. 

And the " murial " as Hilda would have said. 

oh, well, er... It's obviously before my time too, I remember my Mum telling me.      

Watching GF last night and I only noticed now 
That in the Q lab scene, as Q and Bond walk past
George Leech getting shot in the chest, Q flinches at
The first shot. 
I wonder if that was deliberate, or a bit of a scare ? 

You Only Live Twice :
One of the more escapist Bonds but with a fantastic Picture on Bluray, Nice and clear the sound also is
great, so you can really hear the fantastic J Barry score. 
With The bonus features on the Blu-ray first appeared on the Ultimate Edition DVD. as always worth
a look.

OHMSS :
  The picture quality is OK in many scenes , infact very good to be honest, but a few scenes look a bit Flat, I have read
that the disc appears to have had its brightness and contrast boosted electronically. which might account for it.
Sound is also very good, but the same thing at times, seems very Mono rather than Stereo ( If that makes any sense ) 
but still a very good conversion to Bluray.
Once again the extras are the same as the Ultimate Edition DVD. As OHMSS is my favourite I love watching. the Making
of/dehind the scenes stuff. always interesting. 

Wait for a holiday sale and splurge on the Bond 50 collection. Well worth it! Especially when I sneak into your house to put Moonraker in your Blu Ray player

YOLT is a beautiful transfer IMO. The space scenes look great, Japan looks more incredible than ever.

I enjoy the commentary on this film, though I prefer a in studio 'recorded live' format instead of a compilation of actors and crew sound bites about certain parts. It would have been great if they could have gotten Lewis Gilbert to do a commentary. With this transfer being released so recently, they will likely not have a new edition for a few years now.

Obviously, the ultimate dream is to have Connery commentaries like Moore did for all his films. Sadly, I highly doubt that would ever happen.

Cheers 

Enjoy. I may indulge in some YOLT this weekend too. Aki most underrated Bond girl!

Hah, I was just in the middle of searching for NSNA on blu-ray because there was a time when every copy was selling for over $70 usd. Not sure why exactly, there are copies on Amazon now for 16, but the case doesn't say collector's edition so I am wondering if it has the extras.

Ok great. This is very helpful! And your cover doesn't say Collector's Edition anywhere? Just want to make sure I don't have to double dip as I'm only trying to complete my collection.
