Troma Goes Blu! - Page 2

Gore Lunatic · 01-08-2010, 01:08 PM

Are all their BD's gonna have that green spine? I'm definitely picking up the Class of Nuke'em High. I never owned a copy of that film in any format so it's an easy buy for me.

I would definitely wait and see some reviews first. Troma are far from consistent in their DVD quality, and being as they are the new Blu garbage men in the dump...let's see how they do. They'll have to strike some new transfers for sure.

They could easily go the way of, oh, say Timeless Media Group who releases Blu-rays upconverted in 720p and call them Hi-Def.

I'll gladly go for The Toxic Avenger and Class of Nuke Em High if they're a noticeable step-up in quality from previous releases. I still have my autographed gold Toxie LD, too. May also budge on Tromeo and Juliet if price + quality's there..

I'll bet these are nothing more than the same DVD masters transferred over to Blu. I wouldn't get your hopes up for anything spectacular.

Sigh. Wish someone else held the rights for BLOODSUCKING FREAKS so we could get a remastered special edition with extras and commentary.

Just give me The Toxic Avenger & Class of Nuke Em High on Blu!

The Chaostar · 01-14-2010, 02:03 PM

And those DVD masters where VHS masters to begin with. Sure they look like it.

Yeah. And they suckered me with the "Director's Cut" crap they put on the BLOODSUCKING FREAKS DVD as it was the exact same cut of the film that was already out on VHS.

Yeah, that's what I'm thinking as well!

Read the forum link.
I'll believe it when I'll read it.
And will not trust ANY 4 or 5 star review on dvdtalk 'cause the guy that usually reviews TROMA DVD's is either a huge fan or works for them.

Nailwraps · 01-23-2010, 07:30 PM

Pep Squad is also coming to Blu on the same day as Surf Nazis Must Die.:

Whoa, I love that movie!

It had nothing to do with Troma originally though...unless they're now distributing it.

I'm going to take a chance on this and pre-order it. Amazon has it for just $13.99 right now, and the new extras sound mighty tempting. Nice artwork too.
