It's Universal. Plus Shout have a deal with WB, so there is a chance that they could have gotten it the film was with them.

I’m an idiot, I was thinking of the Leftovers

Nice that Aguirre is happening after all. Hopefully with the German title cards too. I'll hold on to the BFI's wonderful set for the other films.

2 more leaks!

Listings for Golden Harvest Collection Volume 2: Shining Stars and Wallace & Gromit: The Complete Cracking Collection 4K UHD.

There is genuinely no way all of these leaks are for December.

I’m going to explode with joy if it is.

Yes, these are all December titles. I had to read it twice but they are as confirmed by MifuneFan at BR and apparently that isn't even everything. 1 or 2 more titles are seemingly upcoming as well. Absolutely unbelievable. Hopefully there won't be any QC issues.

Could someone please make inquiries about BFI's plan for Herzog? I'm very tempted by these Shout 4K releases.

Another title for December:
Riddick (2013) UHD

Has anyone had a chance to watch this disc? I can't find any reviews online. This is easily one of my most anticipated releases of the year. I hope Shout! Factory treated the film well.

I just got my copy and popped it in a player right away. I am sad to say that Shout did an abysmally lazy job. They clearly utilized an old transfer. The image is very soft. There is no grain to speak of. It looks like excessive DNR was applied. The subtitles are poorly synced and have typos. There are no extras. I am still glad to have it on disc, but for what you get, their asking price is exorbitant.

No mention of Meaning of Life, which should still be with Universal. It would be nice to finally get And Now for Something Completely Different in 4K and with bonus features

Somewhat surprised Sony let Holy Grail and Life of Brian our of their grasp.

First Shout January titles leaked by MifuneFan:

The Last Voyage of the Demeter 4K
John Carpenter’s Vampires 4K
Sanctum 4K
Shaw Brothers Classics 11 Films BD with these titles:
The Silent Swordsman (1967)
Rape of the Sword (1967)
The Fastest Sword (1968)
Twin Blades of Doom (1969)
Twelve Deadly Coins (1969)
Vengeance is a Golden Blade (1969)
A Taste of Cold Steel (1970)
The Iron Buddha (1970)
The Jade Faced Assassin (1971)
Mission Impossible (1971)
Six Assassins (1971)

Another Carpenter that is not Assault on Precinct 13. Deaf Crocodile completed the restoration long ago. What's the hold-up?

Deaf Crocodile has said they don’t own the rights and only did the restoration. With how long it’s been sitting in the can, it makes me suspect Criterion, but I really have no idea.

We know for a fact that it's with Shout. I just wonder why they're taking so long.

February 4th:
Sick 4K (Kevin Williamson written film)

February 11th:
