  • In this video I'll be unboxing warner bros. latest release of Blade Runner 4K Film Vault edition and comparing with Titan's of Cult's Blade Runner 4K steelbook boxset. I'll give my detailed thoughts on both editions and which one I think is most worthy of a place in your blu ray collection…

    I've been a fan of Blade Runner since I saw it on TV in the mid 80's. Bought it on multiple formats more times than I would care to admit over the years. Must have seen it well over 100 times now. Would you believe that I only just noticed the bloody great unicorn in the background in Sebastian's apartment when I re-watched it last month?! One thing to bear in mind if you're looking to pick up one of those briefcase sets: The regular DVD set is packaged differently to the other formats. The discs come in a lovely digipak with similar artwork to the old "Ultimate Collectors Edition," whereas the other formats present them in standard plastic cases.

      You know now that you mention it... I can't remember it either!? 🤣 I'll definitely be looking for it next time though. That's interesting re. the dvd version having the nicest packaging. That may just sway it for me. I was looking at the DVD version as it seems a bit more readily available and slightly cheaper. I'll pin your comment for anyone else interested mate. Thanks for this and cheers for watching👍

    Both editions are great. The Vault edition has very good extras, however is missing the soundtrack CD to be a true collectors fan edition. As for the Titans of cult, the highlight is the steel book artwork. Is superb.

    I like both sets Andy but while The Film Vault is clearly a better set of collectibles, the Titans of Cult has that lovely steelbook. Only solution is to have both. Now I have the original 4K release of Blade Runner which came in a digibook type of thing and had a little paperback book with shots from the film through one half and then I think it's storyboards in the other half. That's nice to have but it also has four different discs included which have every version of the film. I guess you'll have to find one of those now too! It's good to see so many other people I know commenting on here. What a good bunch of film enthusiasts. John.

    • @ElectricGeek
      @ElectricGeek  Před rokem

      I agree with you John, having both is the way to go 😊 I can't think of the set you mean but you have now sent me down a rabbit hole looking for it! 😩 Does it have the unicorn on it like the envelope within the film vault edition? And are the other versions on 4K discs too? 🤔 That would be something though would settle even for dvd. I definitely would like the other cuts in some form. Thanks for taking the time to watch and and comment John 👍 Even if you have now condemned me to buy yet another Blade Runner set 😩 Andy⚡️

      @@ElectricGeek I need to get that Blade Runner box out and have a look at it Andy. I must have shown it in my 4K review back in May 2020 though. 'The Final Cut' version of the film is 4K but the rest are all Blu-ray. I watched the original version on one of the Blu-rays and I still think it is the most successful version of the film but I just like looking at it and don't really need the commentary telling me what the hell is actually going on. How anyone ever understood it without the commentary though is beyond me!

    HMV have a lot of Bladerunner special editions for £3.49 at moment, Travel Poster Edition looks good.

    That vault editon is massive, imagine having full collection of those.

    Personally i would pay £5 more and have a steelbook instead of a cd case type. The size of the film vault is crazy and to put a cd case inside beggar’s believe.
    I prefer the Manta lab above these two though.

    • @ElectricGeek
      @ElectricGeek  Před 9 měsíci

      The manta lab looks cracking but it’s currently going sealed on ebay for £499.99 so i guess i’ll make do with what i’ve got for now lol I agree that the film vaults could do with a steel also. The cd wallets cheapen them a bit. I don’t mind but i would prefer a steel. Cheers for watching mate 👍

    I have to admit I preferred the film vault edition myself. I know it's an expensive set but the one thing that people don't Factor in when it comes to the price is the rarity factor that you get with that edition and that alone will put up the price. I do love the Titans of cult release myself and I'm so happy to have both of them in my collection. As for the Briefcase edition I have been trying to pick that up myself for the last couple of years. Like yourself hopefully I can pick it up. Another fantastic video Andy and thanks again for sharing

      Thanks for watching Keith! Hope you're well pal. You make a good point about the rarity factor. It's nice to have a numbered piece 👌 I'm glad I have both also but the film vault is the better set. I think better value for money too. And by the way sorry for ripping off your idea 🥴 lol John Clancy pointed out to me that you had already started a 'battle of the boxsets' series yourself 🤦🏻‍♂️ I changed the thumbnail and everything to be respectful of it! lol I had totally overlooked those videos of yours and it was a genuine coincidence! Anyway glad you enjoyed it all the same and best of luck hunting down the briefcase mate 👍🤞

      @ElectricGeek hey Andy. Please don't change your thumbnail. I actually find it flattering that you are doing something similar to what I used to do. I haven't done one of them videos in over a year and there's was no way you could ever have known. I really do hope you continue the series because I find it very fascinating and massively enjoyable.

    Nice indepth video bud. I'll be skipping all of the Film Vault editions simply due to the box size.
    I'm an avid Scarface fan and I wanted that version because the 35 anniversary edition seems a bit plain. I wanted the Film Vault version, but that massive box size just takes up too much space and will stand out too much on my shelf. Not for me :P
    Shame about sizes, but I still like the features on em

    • @ElectricGeek
      @ElectricGeek  Před rokem +1

      Yeah I totally get this badger. Great if you have the space but once you buy all 4 especially that's gonna take up a whole shelf for just 4 films. Not to mention there will likely be more.
      Scarface is the only one I don't have on 4K so was thinking about that one myself. I like them all though 😩
