Die Hard Trilogy Box Set & Live Free or Die Hard

[Jim Morrison]

Looks like Die Hard's 1-3 will only be available in the box set with Die Hard 4.0 available seperately on Blu-Ray.

Fox has not yet provided a specific breakdown of the supplements on the 'Die Hard Trilogy' set, other than that it should mirror the previous collection issued on standard-def DVD, which included multiple commentaries, featurettes, deleted scenes and more for each movie.

Retail is $39.98 for 'Live Free or Die Hard,' and $99.98 for the 'Die Hard Trilogy.'

As of now, the three films in the 'Die Hard Trilogy' will not be made available separately, nor will there be a four-pack that includes 'Live Free or Die Hard.'

Fair enough not releasing the first 3 outside of the set, but why not just do a complete set of 4

Will pick up all of these

Agreed. I was looking forward to a four film boxset and don't really understand why there isn't one. It's going to be a very expensive run up to Christmas (and that's not including the girlfriend's present. I'm sure she'd love some Blu-Rays )

Also looking forward to the release of the Die Hard movies in HD.

Any idea of timescale ?

Die Hard 4.0 up for order at DVDWorldUSA

 

[Adam1980]

Will be picking this up!

Never saw 4.0 at the cinema

 

[Glenn01]

Die Hard 4.0 was good ... but not great.

It was no way near the quality of Die Hard 1 ... but should suit the HD format VERY well.

Fox Home Entertainment has revealed that the Blu-ray version of 'Live Free or Die Hard' will be delivered in the PG-13 rated form. In the ultimate head-scratcher, the Fox Blu-ray website shows a cover for the title which says "Unrated". We have contacted Fox to get some clarification, but for now it looks like Blu-ray fans will be neglected by the studio this fall.

 

[midknight]

I am completely at a loss as to why Fox would release an unrated cut on standard DVD but not on BR - I just hope that the press release was a mistake and that the box cover on the FoxBR website is correct.

If it is going to be the PG 13 cut I think I will go with the unrated DVD and no get the BR - which is a shame as I really liked the movie and it would look great on BR

Fox madness!!

Thats a good way of turning people away from HD, good move fox

 

[eddy73]

Its funny how the unrated Blu-ray box is still on their website.
Maybe they will release it eventually.

Or (hopefully) the press release is wrong!

If Die Hard 4 is going to be the PG version then I'm quite glad this won't be in the box set.

Fox seem to give with the one hand then take with the other.

I have not seen the film either cut..... is there that much to be missed or worried about, is it that much of a problem.... ??

From the MPAA

"Rated PG-13 for intense sequences of violence and action, language and a brief sexual situation."

Couldnt find out exactly what the differences were, other than Yippee Ki Yay had the last bit censored by a gunshot, although I still heard in the cinema.

Fox can't be a fan of BR

Hardly ruining the film then.... Thanks, i'll still probably get it then.....

Do we know if the UK version was cut or not? If so I might opt for Region B for this release.

It was passed with no cuts according th the BBFC website, but I should imagine this is as the version submitted was the same as the US PG-13. States the film Running time as 128 mins & 37 seconds, looks like the US unrated is 130 mins.

 

[rickyroma]

original trilogy all the way, proper action! the new one was good but all the talk of the "pg-13 rating being pushed to the limit" was crap. Unless they shot every scene with Mclane twice, one pg-13 and the other full of language I wouldn't hold much hope of the unrated being too different. Id expect Yipee ki yay to be in and maybe some blood splatters.

 

[KevD]

No idea on the status of the cut on 4.0 in Japan (same as everywhere else I guess if were going for wider audience), but they are getting a Quadrilogy set with all 4 films.

Released on the 7th October, up for order at Amazon Japan, but at over £70 delivered!!

 

[JAGUAR1977]

l may get that set if Movietyme stock it.
