No, because it's already out on a UK Blu-ray.

As far as I'm aware, MGM only licences titles that they haven't already put out on a particular format - which is why Arrow can sometimes only licence the BD rights (i.e. because a UK DVD already exists).

I believe fuzzymctiger was asking if Dressed to Kill had been released on Blu-ray prior to the Arrow release.

Yes i was, hence "had not" instead of "has not"

Who Dares Wins had a prior UK blu ray. I think King of New York as well?

Otherwise, all premiers, including those that had US releases a while back

The prior release of Who Dares Wins was released by Arrow (Films), they then re-released it under the Arrow Video banner.

King of New York had been released in the US on Blu but not in the UK.

I think the only example of a 'true' prior release where Blu is concerned was Time Bandits, which was previously released by Optimum / Studio Canal in the UK before Arrow released their remastered version. The forthcoming release of Withnail and I will be the second example.

Damn I'm an idiot, I was thinking of Australia's release of KONY, also I was staring at Time Bandits on my shelf and thought. "Nope! that was an American one"

We are now starting to run very low on stock of our Limited Edition boxset so if you're planning on picking up a copy we would suggest that you do so sooner rather than later!

Once the limited edition set has sold out we’ll be issuing the films as separate amaray releases which will contain much reduced booklets so keep an eye out for updates on this."
