Also a Blu-ray of Marlowe, and a UK edition of Bullet in the Head.

10-disc set featuring:
Drunken Master 2
Rumble in the Bronx
First Strike
Thunderbolt
Mr. Nice Guy
Who Am I

Going to wait for that set to be broken up because I only want Drunken Master 2.

Am I missing the UK announcements? Do they come at some other time? Sorry for the n00b question, just looking to order Bullet in the Head.

Standard BDs coming for Ms.45 and the Turtles movies in June as well. Where did people see the Bullet in the Head announcement?

I only saw it here:

Bullet specs up. Seems like it's the only UK exclusive but another stacked month.

Man, it seems like a fantastic release too. Didn't realize these releases went live officially at 11 AM EST. Jumped the gun.

What’s the difference between the regular 4K Chan-set and the mote expensive Arrow Exclusive?

The O-card and the artwork on the inlays - the discs themselves are exactly the same.

Just looks like alternate artwork across the board: covers, discs, and outer slipcover for the box.

That JC set is very cool, but I'm being sensible and just pre-ordered Bullet in the Head BD for now. Will likely pick up Wake in Fright BD as soon as I can, and Marlowe at a later date in a sale. Guessing the Chan set may disappear with all the hype, but I'll be there for any reissue shenanigans!

I assume this transfer of Wake in Fright is not DNR'd to hell like the previously Blu-Ray releases in the UK and USA?

Reviews have been sensational, to the point when I was seriously considering an import (which wouldn’t have been cheap).

Since Arrow seem to be on a Paul W.S. Anderson kick at the moment with Soldier and the Mortal Kombat film, I wonder if they might go back to Anderson's debut, 1994's Shopping, at some point?

Under Siege 2: Dark Territory is upcoming from Arrow!

Since they seem to be doing releases of things Warner Brothers put out in triple packs (Deep Blue Sea/Long Kiss Goodnight/Snakes on a Plane and Logan's Run/Soylent Green/The Omega Man) , they probably also have Above the Law.

Talking of Seagal, I wonder if they might also do Executive Decision? They've done other Kurt Russell films but surprised that hasn't been prioritised (or indeed Tango & Cash, which has been brought up a few times after they did a couple of Stallone titles).

Look forward to these three in particular.

To Live and Die in LA is going to be announced Friday, it's today's hint

According to Reddit, these are Arrow's July UK titles:

To Live and Die in L.A. (4K Limited Edition) £24.99 - 06/07/26
Hush (4K Limited Edition) £24.99 - 13/07/26
Falling Down (4K & Blu-Ray Limited Editions) £24.99/£17.99 - 20/07/26
Soylent Green (4K & Blu-Ray Limited Editions) £24.99/£17.99 - 27/07/26
The Outfit (Blu-Ray Limited Edition) £17.99 - 27/07/26

Surprised that The Outfit is Blu only, as I'm sure it has its fans.

I suppose they couldn't get/produce a master suitable for a UHD release.

Marlowe was also BD-only. So this seems par for the course for upgrades of Warner Archive titles previously only on DVD.

Seems like Arrow might have a distribution deal with MVD Rewind in the UK. Just noticed their 4K edition of Rockers up for order on the webstore.

Also coming in July
Red Sun (UHD and Blu-ray releases)
Sex and Fury & Female Yakuza Tale double feature Blu-ray (guess the Diacotek releases are going OOP)
