Eastwood Films on DVD/Blu-Ray (Upcoming Releases, News, Reviews etc)

[Christopher]

I was thinking about upgrading to blu-ray for some Eastwood movies. This set would be a cheap way of picking up seven Universal movies:



It has Two Mules for Sister Sara, Joe Kidd, High Plains Drifter (I have the DVD set of those three), Coogan's Bluff, The Beguiled, Play Misty for Me, and The Eiger Sanction

This isn't a new set, but was just browsing and wanted to mention it. I've been collecting since well before Blu-ray was a thing, but I'd like to get some HD versions of some of these movies, and this set looks good. There are individual releases for some of these that probably have some good extra features, but this would be a bit more economical. Has anyone else made it a point to collect Eastwood movies on blu-ray or 4K? AKA mentioned the In the Line of Fire 4K release a couple months ago, and I see that's about to come out!

This is currently $14.99 on gruv.com (this is region A), so I just ordered it. That's a good price to upgrade to Blu-ray.

Paint Your Wagon is going to get a Blu-ray release "coming soon." I just checked Kino Lorber's website and it isn't listed on there yet, but saw the announcement on facebook. The facebook post also says it's from a 4K scan of the original film negative, so that should look really good. I've always found this to be a fun movie, so it is something I'd be interested in picking up at some point.

I agree with KC, I’ll wait until they’re all available on Blu-ray.  It makes no sense to release this set with even just one movie in dvd format, never mind seven!  I’m used to disappointment, though.  The entire TOS Star Trek television and movie series is available in one set, sans the Director’s Edition of the first movie, which was an improvement over the original! 

My guess is that the Signature Collection will see re-release with all films on Blu-ray format with the inclusion of Richard Jewell.

FedEx just dropped off my set, I got it on ebay here in the UK for ?150.

Haven't watched anything yet but I have to say the packaging is beautiful. It comes with some extra bits, mini posters, pictures, a Pale Rider press kit.

I know it's not ideal in that it has some DVDs and I'll probably look to pick up the blu rays of T&L, Bronco Billy and Paint Your Wagon to compliment it.

Great to have almost everything in one set however and I'm looking forward to revisiting his filmography in order, many of which I haven't watched in a long time, also a chance to introduce my partner to them as she has only seen a handful.
