GI Joe: The Movie (1987) coming to Blu-Ray!

It's cool, I was just funnin'! But yeah some of those that you mention were required reading, and Beowulf of course.

As a kid (6th grade) I read a kickass translation of Beowulf but as yet have been unable to find it. For what it was though, the CG movie was pretty cool.

 

[Deak Starkiller]

I loved it! Oh and ZOMG COBRA LALALALALALALLALALALALALALALALA! Just in case we don't get deleted.

I will probably end up buying this just because I used to love everything GI joe related when I was a kid.

According to TV Shows on DVD, this is being released on July 27th.

Beowulf? Wasn't that a cartoon from the guy who made Forrest Gump?

If you'd stayed in high school, you'd likely have found out.

The Blu-ray will be a BD/DVD combo. The Blu-ray version will be in widescreen (the as-originally-intended aspect ratio which was originally intended to be seen in theaters) and the DVD will be in full screen. The movie has been remastered in HD as well.

So other than an overhyped graphic overhaul, what other reason is there to get the BluRay now?
