US BR & 4K Releases for January & February 2026

The Last Boy Scout added in HD with DTS Master Audio 5.1 from Warner:
This release addresses an outstanding regional difference in the K Store. The UK Store has long had this title in HD while the US Store was limited to SD. I’ll always be happy to see discrepancies like this addressed. Nice work, K!

What’s next? Rock of Ages? (UK has both cuts in HD w/Extras.) Doctor Sleep? (UK has Director’s Cut in HD.)
 
Also finally upgraded from SD only
The Witches of Eastwick (1987) in HD with DTS-HD Master 5.1 from Warner Bros.

Pre-Order
Greenland 2: Migration (2026) in UHD/HD (so far) from Lionsgate

This has been on my watchlist forever—had no idea the UK store already had it in HD! One of my favorites growing up; I must've watched it a dozen times back then, but it's easily been 20 years.

Now, fingers crossed for a proper 4K restoration someday. The cinematography (Tony Scott at his peak) and practical action deserve it big time. That opening football scene alone would pop in 4K.
 
Looks like the last minute announcements have started rolling in. We should see these overnight:

Rental Family 4K (Disney)
Song Sung Blue 4K (Universal)

Song Sung Blue was f'ing awesome. So much more than the trailers let on. It's a rollercoaster.
 
Dust Bunny pre-orders just downloaded for tomorrow's release.

 
My 4K HDR disc of Thunderheart just arrived. It's a Sony distributed disc, hopefully it appears on K soon as well.
 
Apple started receiving titles from The Luc Besson boxed set from Sony. So far just a couple in HD, but apparently The Big Blue was supposed to be amongst them but hasn’t appeared yet so I can’t confirm whether 4K or both cuts. I did recently give up and buy the boxed set, so I’m glad to see the digital gods honoring the sacrifice. :)
 
Angel-A added in HD with (French) DTS-HD Master Audio 5.1 from Sony:

Atlantis added in HD with (French) DTS-HD Master Audio 5.1 from Sony:

Le Dernier Combat (The Last Battle) added in HD with (French) DTS-HD Master Audio 5.1 from Sony:

Whoo-hoo! Luc Besson Boxed Set batch one from Sony! Hopefully we've got another batch with the 4K titles in the pipeline.
 
From Dusk Till Dawn added in 4K (SDR, HDR10 & DV) with the same DTS HD MA 5.1 audio.


Didn’t even know this had been updated to 4K and only $4.99 upgrade price with a funky new poster.
 
Haven’t seen it but I’ll watch anything with Mads Mikkelsen plus it’s directed by the guy who did the Hannibal series with him and it’s a 3:1 aspect ratio. I can’t think of a better way to spend $20.
Yep! That's the appeal to me as well, it seems like it should be great but I've been waiting for someone else to check in with their thoughts.

Happy movie viewing!

Here's a couple reviews. Wow, what passes as a review these days is wild.

Happy movie viewing!

And my theater is torn apart right now, moving equipment to a different rack! I need to get it back up and running tonight so we can watch tomorrow night!

Anybody have any information on this version? When I search, I found comments that a 4k disc was cancelled. I own in HD and am wondering what kind of 4k transfer this is. The audio shows the same for both versions. Thanks!

I’m not looking a gift horse in the mouth! This is awesome news
