Looks as if it's most if not all of the same content as Scream Factory USA Blu-ray release which was also 3 Discs

New compared to previous German Blu-ray release which would be correct

I would not be surprised if it's the same 96 min Documentary as
Medieval Times: The Making Of Army Of Darkness" documentary

This would be fine by me, then hopefully The Thing and Escape from New York can follow and I can't prolong going multi region for a while longer

Nice to see this getting a release but I've got the UK Steelbook and the Scream Factory release. Unless there is anything new in this release I won't pick it up

 

[denizen]

Would like to check it out.

I love AOD. But it's enough already. They need to stop releasing this over and over.
This has got to be the most rereleased movie ever.

 

[Lutzo]

Sounds interesting, but a bit less so when realizing it will for sure be called "Armee der Finsternis" and not Army of Darkness

There weren't that many re-releases of AoD, unless you count DVDs. There was the initial Blu-Ray with terrible PQ and then the Shout release, with great PQ. And re-releases that actually improve on the older ones are okay in my book. I'm hoping this will be identical to the Shout BD because I still need a good release of this film that isn't region A only.

The French and German Ultimate Editions are pretty much on par with the Shout Factory release

 

[batmobilly666]

Are they? Interesting. I might get the French one then, I'm not paying 50 Euro for the German UE. I'll wait for the Steelbook art reveal, though. If it's better than the UK one I might bite.

It'll be very hard to beat the UK one IMO. Awesome steelbook.

This will probably have the title in German also, which is an immediate turn off.

 

[batmobilly666]

I agree, I already own the UK Steelbook. Pretty much the only way to beat that would be a title on the front (English, of course). I still dislike title-less front artwork.
