SpaceCamp (Finally) Coming to Blu-Ray!

What Space Camp forum would be complete without a place to talk about one of the best/worst movies of all time, SpaceCamp, as well as all Space Camp references in pop culture.

SpaceCamp (Finally) Coming to Blu-Ray!

Post by Vincent »

SpaceCamp will finally be getting a Blu-Ray release!

You can pre-order it now ahead of its September 26, 2017 release!

Still no director's commentary, much to my chagrin, but the Amazon listing says it will include:
  • - Interview with Star Lea Thompson
    - Interview with Director Harry Winer
    - Trailers
So that's not nothing...

Actually, the Amazon page doesn't list it, but Harry Winer said he did record a commentary for the Blu-Ray release!

Thanks for the review on the home page. The frame comparisons are very revealing; the blu-ray is higher quality than I expected it to be. It's also nice to see that the second version is oddly colour saturated for everyone else too.

[s]I'll add a copy to my (American) Amazon order in October.[/s] (My attempt at coding strikethrough failed. I tried several variations.)

Oh, wait, it's available on Amazon.ca for less than the exchange rate to buy it from America. Woohoo!

I'd buy a copy just for the commentary track. I'd love to hear the insights on that, especially the SC-filmed scenes.

Our copy arrived yesterday morning! We haven't had time to watch it yet, but it will be christened with popcorn this week.
