    Yikes! I almost bought Seven Samurai! I dodged a bullet! 😂 My gratitude to everybody that bought 2K!

      No announcement of a 4K physical release yet but with the new 4K restoration being shown, fingers crossed!

    I had this on VHS, then Criterion’s first DVD which was absolutely horrible, then their remastered DVD, then the bluray…….I’m going to go broke. 😢

    Hi James, thanks for sharing this news! I wouldn’t have known about this otherwise. It will be screened in the Seattle area and I’m exited to watch it for the first time! I’ve seen other Kurosawa movies but being able to watch his most acclaimed film in 4K will be a treat!

      Absolutely, Camille! I’m looking forward to seeing this film in 4K as well. Fingers crossed for a 4K physical release in the near future.

    I don't care about 4K. What Criterion needs to do is release the Kurosawa box set on blu-ray, since it is only on DVD and long out of print.
    So far have not picked up anything as the 2 Barnes and Nobles by me did not have anything I wanted in stock. They have shrunk their Criterion sections by a lot.

      Understand. 4K isn’t for everyone 😀. Will be interesting to see if an updated Kurosawa box set comes our way at some point. Would be nice to have a blu-ray and 4K option.

    I have the Second Sight edition of Picnic at Hanging rock which has both cuts of the film. I really love the way it looks and it still has a ton of detail in most of the film despite the usage of DNR. I think people complain about this set too much. The director signed off on the restoration and didn't really go full on George Lucas on it so I'm ok with it. Speaking of Seven Samurai on 4K...I believe the movie is on 4K in Japan as well as some other Kurosawa titles (if my memory serves me correctly). I expect that a Kurosawa 4K boxed set is somewhere down the line. The Studio Canal 4K of Ran looks amazing btw!

      Carl, I still need to watch my blu-ray copy of Picnic at Hanging Rock. Yes, I believe a 4K Kurosawa set or standalone release may come soon. Fingers crossed. I also need to get on that Ran 4K.

      Greetings, Oliver! I'm getting used to the beard. Thanks. I just preordered the BFI 4K since I already have the Criterion blu-ray so the two combined will make a nice definitive edition. Plus the BFI 4K has an additional commentary and Dolby Vision.

    Favorite movie. This will be a quadruple dip for me if its released on 4k disc.

    DVD (as part of the Kurosawa box set)

    So far I’ve picked up the 4K releases of Peeping Tom and Le Samouraï. 2 down and 2 to go. Risky Business and Farewell My Concubine. Just have to wait until July 23rd.

      That sounds like a good plan with those 4K releases, Mark! I have my eye on Risky Business and Farewell My Concubine as well.

    This would be amazing news if we get this on physical soon. I couldn’t help but comment on Harakiri. It’s the best samurai movie of all time and might be one of the best movies ever made. The Blu-ray looks fantastic I know you don’t buy backlog movies much but this is a must own. Anyway just my opinion something to consider. Have a good one.

    • @20thand21stMovies
      @20thand21stMovies  2 месяца назад +2

      Hello, F V! Thanks for the recommendation on Harakiri. I need to check out that title someday.
      A Seven Samurai 4K physical release would be cool indeed. Fingers crossed.

    An announcement for the November releases makes sense. A big release at the end of a sale month (like Risky Business this month and After Hours during the last July sale) will move a lot of units.
