BREAKING NEWS: Magical Mystery Tour Next BLU-RAY/DVD release

patrice:
I am SO excited about this release! The MMT DVD I have looks pretty shabby and I am looking forward to being able to see a good print. I checked Amazon.ca but they only have the blue ray version for pre-order and nothing else. I sure hope they get the deluxe version. I don't have a blue ray player and have never watched a film in blue ray, is the difference really that major? Does the blue ray impart an "unreal" or unnatural quality?
To tell you the truth, I can't see a huge difference between the two.

I checked Amazon today and both a blu ray and regular dvd edition are up on the site. I know what I'm getting in October.

beatlesfanrandy and Nancy R, thanks so much for weighing in on DVD vs Blu-ray formats. Sounds like I should A/B somewhere somehow. I really grappled with getting a Blu-ray player when Yellow Submarine was released as I thought animation would probably look best in blu-ray. Not sure about regular film though as I was concerned that Blu-ray might look more vibrant imparting an unnatural quality. From what you mentioned beatlesfanrandy, this just isn't the case.

So is the deluxe edition that contains both, etc.

Just checked Amazon.ca and they have now listed the deluxe edition which I have pre-ordered - YAY!!! Will have to find someone with a blu-ray player to compare the regular DVD to blu-ray.

That looks awesome.

The deluxe edition does look great, but so far it's only listed on Amazon US. What about the UK?

Gotcha. I know I will get the regular version, but wondering about the deluxe version. Although there is also a lot of Paul's archived stuff I haven't even gotten yet. Deluxe=$$$

At first I only saw it listed on the USA site but a few days later it appeared on the Canadian site. I suspect it might be the same for the UK Amazon site.

It's $66.49 but if price comes down between now and Oct. 9th, you will get the lower price.

Amazon.ca charges me when the item is shipped not before.

question...I'm still new to Amazon...If I pre order MMT Box . do I pay now or when it's shipped?? ...I cant wait!!! Why is that I just found a copy of Yellow Submarine on DVD Cheap and then it comes BACK OUT?? Then I found a used copy (6 bucks) of MMT on Dvd and That COMES OUT???? Maybe I should find DVD's of Let It Be and Rockshow --- So those can finally COME OUT!!!

YES!!! Keep looking!
Patrice is right, in U.S. as well Amazon only charges when it's shipped (so they can give you lower price if it goes down by then)

Thank You...very happy

OK, I have several people to thank here for alerting me this release when it was first announced and convincing me to pre-order the deluxe version of Magical Mystery Tour. I pre-ordered it from Amazon for $66, and I just looked and it's now priced at $85!!!!
I'm grateful to have locked in to the $66 price. So thanks folks.

You're welcome! I just noticed the price hike myself!!

whoops...look like I'll have to wait around the holiday to get this. Not paying 85 bucks for this.
-
Has anyone heard/read anything about where MMT will be playing on the 27th? Not much advance notice being given!

i just hope the new extras and Paul commentary are on the DVD and not just exclusive to blu-ray.... that seems to happen a lot lately, and for no reason as there is room on a DVD for it!!!
To requote myself above (!), is the documentary that's just been aired on BBC2 on the blu-ray or the dvd? Same goes for the commentary and all the extras - will they be on the dvd? Or just the blu-ray
I was about to order the dvd from amazon, but noticed it didn't list what stuff was on... i fell for this with a dvd a few years ago by someone - it was all advertsied as if all the stuff would be on both the dvd AND blu-ray, but whe i got the dvd, it was just the stuff i already owned and the new stuff was on the blu-ray only. Sorry to sound like i'm whinging! I love MMT, i just want to be sure that the actual disc content is the same on the bog standard £10ish dvd as it is on the other versions! The comm, the outtakes, the documentary, and of course the film!
Anyone know?????
