The Ring movies (original Japanese)

**kannisto** · 04-28-2012 05:40 AM

I got 3 of the original Japanese Ring movies today, Rasen is still on the way. These are region free BD25 discs, no English subtitles included.

Sadako 3D starts running in Japanese theatres from 12th of May and these releases were timed to happen around the same time as there are various ongoing promotions for the new movie now.

Sadako is still alive and well as can be seen from this baseball game earlier this week:

I'm going to get the first Ring movie with my next order. Plan to get the others later and also Sadako 3D eventually.

Thanks for the info and have a nice Golden Week!

**kannisto** · 04-28-2012 07:35 AM

Thanks

I'll post some info on Ring 0 and Rasen later on too. Going on a short trip to Izu / onsen from tomorrow. I might have to work during latter part of GW to some extent though, current project is in a very busy situation.

**Spader** · 04-30-2012 11:52 AM

How do you find the transfers? I take it they are without the heavy blue tint some of the DVDs have?

I am guessing if there are HD masters out there now it's only a matter of time until Arrow release them in the UK

**Solo 88** · 05-02-2012 09:06 AM

Any idea if these will be released at some point in the future with English or Chinese subs?

I absolutely love the first one and really want this.... but my japanese isn't good enough to follow the movie without subs.

maybe HK will get a release closer to the theatrical release date for the 3D version?

**kannisto** · 05-06-2012 06:21 AM

I think the transfers of these 2 are looking fine, pretty naturalistic, with no signs of any harmful filtering or processing. I also haven't noticed any color tint. Still haven't had time to watch these except for a few peeks though.

I don't know if these same HD versions will get a release sometime soon in other countries with subs. It wouldn't be surprising at all now that these transfers exist.
