¿Por qué Warner no subtitula comentarios, de manera sistemática, cuando esos subtítulos están disponibles a veces en copias digitales de iTunes?
Misterios...

Muthur, esta semana has dicho, ¿no? Bien, estaré atento al hilo en cinefilia.
Ya me imagino la reseña: ¿PERO QUÉ COJONES?

De hace unas pocas horas, fuente privada de la que me fio por completo.
As someone that attended one of the screenings of Megalopolis in Boston less than a month ago, the touring of the film across the U.S, no matter how weird it can seem as a strategy in 2025, is very much a real thing , and in fact is already happening. Coppola intention is absolutely to tour as many repertory theaters across the whole country as he possibly can until at least Christmas, he has made this very clear, in person, at the end of the screenings. The movie put him in debt. His attendance at these screenings both puts butts in seats for the movie, and is helping him chip away at that debt. He is doing everything he can to make the theatrical experience the only way to see Megalopolis for the near future.
The international Blu-ray’s exist because some distribution companies paid Coppola for international rights and home media was part of the deal.
Having said that, he loves physical media, and he is in talks with several boutique labels for a proper, collectors edition release of Megalopolis, perhaps by New Years Eve, or early 2026..
Veremos.

Se me olvidó comentar que, al menos en el disco 4K británico (y un conocido me ha informado que ocurre lo mismo con el disco italiano), se indica, tanto en la caja como en el menú de la película, que la pista en V.O está en Dolby Digital 5.1, pero esto no es cierto, en realidad se ofrece en DTS HD Master Audio 5.1.

Suena el río, suena...
There is a plan, as unorthodox as it may all seem. I am sorry for the frustration and bewilderment.
As it is the middle of the night in the United States, I will need to keep this brief.
There is a life for Megalopolis beyond that fall 2024 release. FFC is taking the film on tour, Megadoc is coming, and further home releases will come in time.
As much as I wish I could wave a magic wand and say “hey, here’s your Criterion-esque Deluxe UHD with Dolby Atmos and every special feature imaginable, there are other stages to the life of this film prior to such ultimate release.
Veremos.

Muthur, una cosica. Dicen los de hdnumerique en su reseña de la edición UHD francesa que el doblaje francés es la única pista de audio en este disco que se ofrece en Dolby Atmos. Relegar la versión original a un simple Dolby Digital nos parece lamentable, especialmente teniendo en cuenta que dicha V.O si que se ofrece en Atmos en algunos servicios VOD extranjeros.
Interesante... si existe una mezcla Atmos de la version original sigo sin entender por qué nadie la ha incluido en las ediciones físicas (salvo al parecer los alemanes, pero solo en el BD normal, no en el disco 4K).
Creo que la explicación puede estar en lo que me dijiste hace tiempo: las ediciones UHD de esta pelicula, de momento, son muy básicas, con lo justo para poder decir "la hemos editado también en 4K". Sin HDR, sin Atmos, sin contenido extra (los extras solo estan presentes en los BD normales).

Mmmm:
A Dolby Atmos mix of the original audio does indeed exist, and it is very meticulous. The sound design of the movie was definitely created with Atmos in mind. My sources tell me that a HDR grading of the film also exists, was done by the cinematographer and the colorist, and supervised by Coppola. I suspect the current UHD editions are so barebones for a cost cutting reason, and perhaps there were licensing issues as well.
Que raro todo.

El río sigue sonando:
I was at the San Francisco event last Friday, and when asked about an eventual Blu-ray, Coppola said he's working in a even crazier cut of the movie that he'll release.
Mmm...

Siendo su obra personal y teniendo cero compromisos con nadie, sacará la edición más completa posible, con el corte de cines, el corte inicial, el documental, y todos los extras que se le ocurran.
Esta peli en físico es carne de boutique, y si no es Criterion, será BFI, Arrow o Imprint, pero saldrá en algún sitio with all the bells and whistles.
