Stop Your Grinnin' And Drop your Linen!

Aliens was remastered in 4K UHD earlier this year and contains both the theatrical and special editions of the film. Features HDR and Dolby Vision support and an updated Dolby Atmos soundtrack. This is the cheapest its ever been according to CamelCamelCamel.

Reviews have been positive with improvements to the overall picture and colour grading. It is important to note that the picture has been de-grained a fair amount so film purists might be annoyed with this release.

This is the best way to get your hands on a physical copy with Disney no longer releasing physical media in Australia. Being a UK import, the standard blu-ray discs share the same region as Australia and should play without issues.

      Aiyo bud, I tried to message you but your account is apparently not taking any messages.

      You're the last one to post the AT Sound Burger. I just caught a glimpse of an ad for it on TV. It's available now in all 3 colours for $199 from JB Hifi if you wanted to post it. Amazon yet to price-match.

    All the reviews I've seen say the AI processing is overdone making the characters look waxy and causing facial details of background characters to disappear entirely at times.

      Yeah. I clicked on it because I love that movie but then thought about how disappointed I would be. No sale.

      However I noticed 'Prey' was $20.55 so I bought that.

    • Dogstar on 18/07/2024 - 08:42

      It's not pretty but it's still watchable. The Abyss has similar issues iirc, which sucks because along with Aliens they are two of my all-time favourite movies.

      • Morbo66 on 18/07/2024 - 08:53

        "It's not pretty but it's still watchable"

        Imagine if they had that as a box cover quote

    • Alx75 on 18/07/2024 - 09:03

      It's Cameron. He f-ed up Abyss and, a few years back, Terminator 2 which is almost unwatchable.

  • grizz_li on 18/07/2024 - 04:33

    Never bought it on BD so this one will have to do especially now that we won't be getting it in stores.

    Reviews have been positive

    That’s an ambitious claim… one of the most controversial 4K releases out there.

      Watched the 4k on itunes and it looked terrible, looked like a wax museum.

    Game over, man! Game over!

  • ubcool on 18/07/2024 - 07:44

    Its terrible. Its just an AI upscale of the Blu ray. It just doesn't look right. Everything is overly sharp and there's no hdr.

    • kamykazi on 18/07/2024 - 07:57

      I can see it says Dolby Vision in the pic of the back of the box though?

      • ubcool on 18/07/2024 - 09:17

        Yeah technically it's hdr but it's no slight you can't tell the difference. It never goes above 200 nits

  • Smigit on 18/07/2024 - 08:04

    Alien 4K is $24.50 and believe is a very well regarded transfer without the same controversy of Aliens

    • Dogstar on 18/07/2024 - 08:41

      Ta. I grabbed both movies. I'm slowly dropping streaming services and going back to sailing the high seas and physical media.

    • Randolph Duke on 18/07/2024 - 09:12

      Alien is stunning.

      • Smigit on 18/07/2024 - 10:50

        I purchased the 4K recently but yet to watch it. Did go to an Alien screening at Dendy a month or two back and believe it may have been this same version but (it’s what prompted me to seek a 4k copy). Looked great. Movies effects hold up really well.

    • Gav on 18/07/2024 - 09:51

      No Cameron, no wax!

  • Alx75 on 18/07/2024 - 09:01

    Aliens, Abyss, Terminator… all 4K releases f-ed up with overkill de-noising. James Cameron has some serious issues with film noise.

    • Randolph Duke on 18/07/2024 - 09:12

      Yeah, I’m definitely not getting excited about the upcoming original Terminator 4K release.

    • [Deactivated] on 18/07/2024 - 09:53

      @Alx75 - You forgot to mention True Lies which is the worst of them all accept for Terminator 2 which is even worse. The 4K version of Avatar (2009) is horrible too, it’s been put through the same AI upscaling, DNR and sharpening filtering process.

  • justtoreply on 18/07/2024 - 09:29

    At least it's not $60. It can't look any worse than streaming

  • Commander Shepard on 18/07/2024 - 09:53

    James Bond collection seemed good at $57.80. But its Region A1. USA/Canada.Shame

    • mrpickle on 18/07/2024 - 10:12

      I believe only one bluray disc is region locked being Quantum of Solace

      • Commander Shepard on 18/07/2024 - 10:19

        Almost worth if thats the case. But I only really like Casino Royal and Skyfall. So I probably am better off just buying them separately.

    • krushgroove on 18/07/2024 - 14:05

      Not a big fan of the Daniel Craig / James Bourne era.

    Ended up buying Alien, Aliens and Prey. Heard good things about Prey and I don't own a Blu-Ray of the others.

    Buying that recent OLED TV has sent me on a bad path of buying 4K movies.

    • omblygombly on 18/07/2024 - 12:26

      You won't regret buying Prey, especially at just over $20. It cost me just over $30 and the 4k version is fantastic.

  • Dreamcazman on 18/07/2024 - 22:30

    Deal has expired, back up to normal price.

  • vid_ghost on 19/07/2024 - 17:14

    :) It sold out… by the way i can see a few Ebay listings - Resellers purchases heaps of these along with Prey 4k and Alien 4k

    Its 100% because of Disney not selling physical media here anymore.. if you want a copy of dead pool vs wolverine you will need to buy from overseas or scalpers
