So, Manta is releasing Ballerina without ever releasing JW?

 

[Flloydo]

I think the main problem with manta is they HAVE to have a new release every 3 - 4 weeks and some of their choices seem more like a contractual issue and/ or force of hand instead of them picking something and taking their time. Quality isn’t necessarily dropping but it has been known to. They really have become a machine instead of something really really special. Now they just special without the 2 reallys

I kinda hope they don’t also release the John Wick films but who knows. They need to get away from franchises/ trilogies etc going forward imo. Except anything they’ve already released and we waiting on sequels/ prequels then yeah sure that’s fine.

Good.
Saying It incase the people the back still haven’t heard. You c*nt

I used to feel like manta lab releases were special, now like @Flloydo said, they just put out one release after another and I’ve found the releases kinda boring. I’d have to say the same for Blufans as well, nothing special with their BP Marvel releases have become so overdone and their BE and OAB nothing special. We’re missing some excitement for Premium Releases. Well at least I am missing the excitement for the releases we had from previous Covid.

In the Netherlands this trend is called 'grabflation'. Companies don't care anymore, 'customer is king' is dead...

 

[JRodDirector]

I think these release looks excellent. But I do wholly agree the title should be embossed not debossed. Its like they are getting paid to do lazily debossed versions instead smh

I think Astro Creations might change that, breath of fresh air on the Premium scene, doing non marvel/franchise movies.

So glad I wasn't so overtired and stupid enough to drop by Collectong today, too watch the tumblweeds....

I must be one of the few ones that is glad for the choice of ML for this movie as the next title. The announcement is coming earlier than the other releases (with a significant number of variants) are out. This eases the final choice/s of edition/s to purchase.

Agreed. With the wwa steels due out 22/09 in the uk it was perfect timing for me to cancel my order and grab this instead. Realistically it's only costing me about £20 more, which I would MUCH prefer over a lionsgate uk pet slip with bbfc rating logos.

 

[Bungral]

Probably DLB here.

I’d likely go for the OC if they had confirmed JW 1-4.

Would like a full OC set but didn’t get the OCs for the Novas. Have the lentis for o-rings and the 4Ks for Nova.

They have just confirmed they are working on the others

 

[samdavies]

Yeah, but they also said they'd release Oppy and pulp fiction

 

[alaminblah]

Well looks like Nova are also doing Ballerina now...

 

[Noodles]

I think these all look pretty decent, steelbook included. I'll most likely opt for Nova's though, just to continue the Wick edition trend.
