Midsommar (Director's Cut) Collector's Edition 4K UHD just announced, exclusive to A24 Shop
- Thread starter PolishQ
- Start date
Midsommar means the world to me and the fucking 4K sold out before I could get it. I'm absolutely crushed.
They're gonna restock. You can add your name on the waitlist if you want.
I can't. It's 4K or nothing. I already own the standard edition back during its release.
yeah they definitely sent a confirmation email to me
EDIT looked like this, was instant.
I finally got mine hours later for some reason. Was getting worried lol.
Yeah, about the size of it
I ordered when this thread went up but accidentally selected standard somehow (sadface.gif)
A24 have issued a refund and I'll try and grab the 4K version when they re-stock

I adore this movie, would be neat to own that extended edition but its one of those films that just feels weird to me to watch outside of a theater (and that ain't happening anytime soon lmao)
I also don't think I'm quite ready to watch it again since I saw it when it came out. Really curious about the additional footage though.

Anyone get any kind of shipping notification yet? The website said they would start shipping by the 20th and that has come and gone.
Anyone else receive thiers? Got it today and it's so god damn beautiful and got me interested in looking into getting the A24 scriptbooks for The Witch and Ex Machina due to the wonderful styling. Can't wait to watch it, will be the first time watching the director's cut.
I appreciate it for certain things, but it was overly long, and really just got too silly and stupid. Way too indulgent on trying to show how weird the cult was. Curious what was cut, but I would never watch this to find out.
I watched it on amazon prime I think, I assume the theatrical, and I didn't get that. It did plenty to show the boyfriend as a flaky aimless idiot.

Yeah the theatrical version does plenty to show the boyfriend is a gaslighting prick
No, mine has the UltraHD Blu-Ray logo and says "4K Ultra High Definition with HDR."
Mine also had a 4K sticker on the shrinkwrap.
I was more talking about how they interacted with each other, not really about the guy's character. Clearly, he's not a great guy with some of the stuff he does and says, but the dynamic of the two being in a really shitty, toxic and cyclical relationship despite really hating each other doesn't come across as much in the theatrical version, at least to me. This is referenced by other characters, so it's not like totally absent from that version, but I think the Director's Cut fleshed it out better and makes it more understandable as to why they (especially the girl) do what they do in the end, and wasn't all just the cult's influence and pressure. I haven't seen either version in a bit, to be fair, so I would have to go back and rewatch both to parse it all out, but that was the impression I walked away from.
I saw some folks on the blu-ray.com forums making it seem like this was a somewhat common issue
Weird, like it's the wrong disc or it's a misprint and the disc itself is still UHD?
Make sure your order was for the 4k. I almost ordered the Blu-ray because I didn't realize the listing was defaulting to the Blu-ray once the 4k sold out.
They finally shipped mine out, so I should be getting it soon. The impressions have been glowing for the packaging itself, which is what you're really paying for.
The packaging is excellent. I love the art book. Some of the drawings are a sight to be seen. Looks great as well upgraded to 4K and on disc.
I wish they would just do a preorder to make sure everyone who wants it can get in line.
It's not the same. It'll be like...a second edition...a knockoff. I might as well buy a bootleg now.
Well, depending on your region, it's also the only way to get the Director's Cut on disc as well so there's that lol. But I imagine that will change soon-ish. Packaging is quite incredible, though.
I feel you. I'm more mad that I have to pay $45+ for the directors cut on 4k.
I received mine in the mail today. Everything about the packaging and presentation are top notch. It's pricey for sure but definitely worth it imo if you're a fan of the movie. Hopefully A24 will do collector editions for more of their movies because I could see myself going down the rabbit hole of collecting more of these.
I believe this is the way the binding is supposed to be. Mine is the same way and if you zoom in on the official pictures they are also like this.
Double check your order because there were some people getting the incorrect disc in the mail.
and yeah i think it's supposed to be like that, to show off the cool thread binding on the side. it's fine either way to me
Yes if they do one for Under the Skin and/or Green Room 4k I would be all over them.
I think its a noteworthy movie but I cannot watch this a second time. Suicide runs in the family a little too much to be able to get through this again.
Really like the Scorsese intro and the pictures. All in all, a great package, looks killer on the shelf. Looking forward to revisiting the movie this weekend.
It's finally back in stock!
