I can't remember if I bought your Heimat or not Swo (someone on here pointed me in the direction of your listing) but after doing so, I'm all in for a second volume release. bring that on...Second Sight's picks usually aren't in my wheelhouse as much, but they generally put out one thing a year or so that's very much up my alley. that would certainly be one!
normally I'd just say "whatever Daniel Bird is involved with, I'll buy" but he's surely all in on their Possession release, and that's a director I've learned is absolutely not for me..

You may be surprised. Żuławski is hit/miss, but that’s one of his more interestingly idiosyncratic efforts worth checking out vacuumed from the rest

Seven on DVD - two episodes per disc with one on the final disc. The episodes are all feature-length but two on a Blu-ray shouldn't be a problem.What A Disgrace wrote: ↑Fri Apr 19, 2024 2:15 pmI'm sure the logistics of a Heimat 2 release is formidable. That's at least a 10 disc set, probably more.

Arthaus in Germany released Heimat 2 on 7 BD-50s: https://www.blu-ray.com/movies/Die-zwei ... ay/325526/
But given how long it took for their Heimat LE to sell out (I was able to snag a copy in Nov 2022, more than 4 years after its release), I’d be pleasantly surprised if Second Sight finds Heimat 2 profitable.

There are English subs available online in case anyone needs them for syncing: https://www.opensubtitles.com/subtitles ... ite-heimatAxeYou wrote: ↑Sat Apr 20, 2024 4:25 pmArthaus in Germany released Heimat 2 on 7 BD-50s: https://www.blu-ray.com/movies/Die-zwei ... ay/325526/

I would sync these with the SC BDs and upload them but sadly don’t have enough time right now. Suffice to say, the SC set is quite nice and the restorations are pristine. Not Second Sight-level in terms of encoding but still solid. A real shame that Heimat 1 didn’t do better for them. I imagine that if they do 2, it’d be a budget / barebones release to keep costs down for them.

Re: Second Sight Films (UK)
Someone posted an apparent accidental pack shot image of A Bittersweet Life 4K coming from Second Sight...supposedly Zavvi let it slip. Whether it's real or not remains to be seen of course, but would be very nice if they are releasing it (they did recently announce another Korean title, so I hope they get into more of them).
