Well Warner Bros. released it in theatres here in 1996 with their logo at the beginning of the film and their logo on the movie poster. According to IMDB it was released in the UK and pretty much every other country in the world by United International Pictures (UIP).

So I was going to say put it with your Warner collection.

But after looking at the beauty shots again, I would say put it with your Universal stuff since only the Universal logo appears on the spines of the slip and SteelBook which is probably how it will be displayed on your shelves.

That is true it’s only on the spines for this set. But the new Twisters steelbook has them both on the spine (not that I care where that goes on the shelf). Still looks weird and I’ve never seen it before which was my whole original point. An observation

I had to just bite the bullet and grab it.. sold out of orbit so I had t go with zavvi. Too nice of a set not to get.

Man, Universal are killin' it lately. This looks great! Not really a film I want to splash that kinda money on though unfortunately.

I really hope the BD disc that comes with this is also the remastered version and not just the old disc thrown in!

There isn't currently a "remastered" blu-ray disc from Uni or WB. You're thinking of the Turbine release. It won't have that disc.

Ah, fair. Which came out a month ago (and I didn't realise lol). There isn't a Uni UK release scheduled (as of yet) though, so I wouldn't hold your breath.

mAmazon strikes again - they canceled my Twister CE preorder from 30th of July...

And that is why I will not pre order anything from them again.
Totally shocking behaviour from a supposed massive company.

It's not even just them. I have had pre-orders with at least two other retailers that were on order for months- only to get an email "Sorry, we were not able to source this"
Overestimating stock/overbooking sales seems to be a epidemic. My guess is- they put them up for sale before they know their allotment, and figure they will just cancel the number of oversold items.

Does this also have the film on normal Blu Ray HD? Or is it only in 4k.

Have the set ordered but can't find any details.

Both. It literally says "2 disc steelbook" on the mockup.

Cheers. I was only unsure as usually when it's that with it will say (includes Blu Ray.) I have bought films before, that didn't make it clear and they were only the 4k version of the film..
