Hey, fellow olds who still like physical media! The day many of us have been waiting for is finally on the horizon. These fine films are finally getting the 4k Blu-ray treatment come March 12, 2024. They will be available digitally before that. Oddly enough True Lies and The Abyss never even saw Blu-ray.

James Cameron’s ‘Aliens,’ ‘The Abyss’ and ‘True Lies:’ Disney Sets Digital and 4K Blu-ray Dates

[Bitmap Frogs]

Ohhh yeah!

 

[Represent.]

The Abyss is also getting a 4K remaster and re-release in theaters next month

 

[Burning Blade]

Abyss and True Lies day one!

 

[RagnarokIV]

Aliens and The Terminator while you're at it, please Jimmy.

 

[Chuck Berry]

In for True Lies

The only tolerable thing Tom Arnold has ever done

 

[violence]

About time. Very long overdue. Ocean gate basically had to commit HaraKari for James Cameron to put his movies on 4K.

 

[VenomousCoffee]

Very excited for all of these--except for the strong possibility they get screwed up like T2.

 

[Hemingwayoffbase]

True Lies is one of the best movies ever. If you haven’t seen it, it’s a must watch.

 

[Darkmakaimura]

Aliens of one of my favorite movies of all times. Abyss Director's Cut was good.

Don't really care about True Lies. I didn't really like that one too much.

 

[AJUMP23]

I would probably prefer these physical.

 

[Denton]

I really fucking hope these films will get theatrical release in Europe as well. At least Abyss and Aliens.

Terminator 2 3D few years ago was one of my all time favourite theater experiences.

 

[Livingskeletons]

That box art for Aliens is horrendous.

 

[StreetsofBeige]

That box art for Aliens is horrendous.

Ya. I agree.

Love True Lies cover. Although it's weird to see Arnie's fingers bleed into the spine.

 

[Putonahappyface]

Where is the preorder at!

 

[HAYA8U5A]

Please don't be more cases of Cameron DNR'ing them to death!

 

[Ulysses 31]

Please don't be more cases of Cameron DNR'ing them to death!

And actually have all versions of the movie in 4K and not just the theatrical.



We'll never see The Terminator in 4K, will we?

The 1st time True Lies has ever been released in HD.

 

[ManaByte]

The 1st time True Lies has ever been released in HD.

HBO Max was streaming True Lies and The Abyss in HD when the service first launched. These transfers have been done for a few years and Cameron had been too busy with Avatar to approve the disc releases.

So are we getting a Bluray release or just a 4k one?

Had True Lies on laserdisc. Can't wait for a Blu-ray release.

NGL those covers are atrocious. The True Lies one is alright, but Aliens and especially The Abyss make them look like Hallmark channel romcoms.

We get it, there are women in these movies.....

The separate Blu-Ray release is coming later. The sets have a Blu-Ray in them.

Don't worry the steelbooks will no doubt look much better for another £15-£20.

 

[Muffdraul]

Fucking FIIIIIIIIINAAAAAAAALLY!!!!

[DetectiveBananas]

I was excited to find the DVD versions of The Abyss and True Lies (Both Brand new) for $1 each at my local thrift store. Little victories

 

[Chiggs]

Just got done seeing Cameron's 4k transfer of The Abyss at my local AMC. Theater was quite full since it was a one night only deal and they were giving out free commemorative posters.

I saw it in a Dolby Cinema and the HDR popped big time. There's some DNR but nearly enough to warrant all the preemptive pissing and moaning over at Blu-ray. com.

I'll definitely pick this up on digital and physical.

 

[MrMephistoX]

Hopefully the Apple TV releases get the 4K upgrade for free like they usually do.

Just saw it too in Dolby Cinema. Awesome theater experience after growing up seeing it on VHS and non-anamorphic DVD.

Try non-anamorphic laser disc

 

[EviLore]

Found the poster on the way out, thanks for mentioning it Chiggs , wouldn’t have known.

 

[Unknown Soldier]

I get that it takes a lot of effort but I swear that they will never get around to a complete restoration and remaster of Terminator 2

 

[Alcibiades]

Just got out from an AMC Dolby Cinema. Had never seen it before.

Enjoyed it quite a bit. Loved the slow build up. Some cheesy moments as would be expected in a Cameron film.

 

[LegendOfKage]

In for True Lies

The only tolerable thing Tom Arnold has ever done

He was also pretty good in Hit and Run. Good movie with a good cast, but not a big budget.

 

[bender]

Saw the Abyss tonight in theaters and got the poster. I probably haven't seen the movie in 20 years or so and I forgot most the last 3rd of the movie. Chuckled at the Wizards did it moment when address decompression. And I know it is for dramatic effect but I had a hard time turning off my brain during the free swimming moments and just how far down Harris goes to disarm the nuke.

 

[T-0800]

I was told I wasn't allowed to enjoy True Lies anymore because of racism.

 

[baphomet]

Oh fuck yea!

Been waiting for Aliens in 4k.

 

[Nitty_Grimes]

I need to know about UK bluray releases, its keeping me awake at night worrying about it.

 

[INC]

100% pick these up in cex for £3 each in a few months

 

[ManaByte]

They look AMAZING. All those people claiming they'd be bad because Studio Canal ruined T2 (and lied about it being Cameron) will be eating crow. Titanic is stunning.

 

[Dr.Morris79]

...I've, no word of a lie, just bought two of these films on DVD, I never saw this thread before either? Wtf?

The internet isn't real. Is GAF a psi op?

What's going on?

I want answers! I'm on to you, internets!

Someone on Blu-ray.com said that they are aware of the problem and it was Studio Canal's fault. I don't know how true is that. Next year is the 40th anniversary of the first movie so maybe we get it in 4K and a new release of T2.
