  4. Better than Streaming: Fire and Ice 4K Blu-ray Coming Out On June 30

    Welcome back fellow geeks, Blu-ray collectors and movie buffs!

    If you love the animated works of director Ralph Bakshi (American Pop, The Lord of The Rings) and the artworks of Frank Frazetta (Conan The Barbarian, Vampirella), then you should watch out for their memorable collaboration in ultra high-definition as the 1983 animated movie Fire and Ice will be released on 4K Blu-ray format on June 30, 2026, exclusively via MVDshop.

    Fire and Ice 4K Blu-ray cover has the same classic artwork of the official movie poster.

    With a story co-written by Bakshi and Frazetta and the screenplay done by comic book legends Gerry Conway and Roy Thomas, Fire and Ice is the story of a young warrior named Larn who wants revenge against the evil queen Juliana and her son Nekron. Larn also has the task to rescue their kidnapped princess Teegra. For your interest and reference, watch the classic movie trailer below.

    I personally am interested in replaying Fire and Ice in 4K Blu-ray format. I saw Fire and Ice a few times a very long time ago on a rented video tape and on cable TV (randomly viewed it) but I never actually got to watch it entirely. Fire and Ice 4K Blu-ray is on my list of 4K Blu-ray releases of this year. I can only wonder when it would get offered via Amazon.

    As for Ralph Bakshi, I admire his works on rotoscoped animation and how he visualized his concepts. His work on The Lord of the Rings animated film of 1978 was ambitious and he made the most out of their limited resources. I own a Blu-ray copy of his animated film American Pop and watching rotoscoped animated scenes and characters move in high-definition is enjoyable.

    Fire and Ice, to the best of my memory, has a fantasy concept that reminds me somewhat of Conan The Barbarian (and the sword-and-sandals fantasy elements) and it also the traditional concept of the heroic man who risks his life to save an important woman from the forces of evil. To replay Fire and Ice in 4K is something I desire as a 4K Blu-ray collector and enthusiast of traditional animation.

    Not to be outdone is the vocal cast that has William Ostrander, Maggie Roswell, Steve Sandor, Stephen Mendel and Susan Tyrell. The performances in Fire and Ice were strong.

  5. Just got done watching Smokey & The Bandit on Blu-Ray with the family. Lots of questions, including "who did you talk to on your CB radio?" (I did not, as a young child, have a CB radio, dear).

    After the last streaming service cancellation, we've taken to just outright buying DVDs or Blu-Rays on the used market, which ends up being at least on par with the one time cost of renting off of Amazon, and a better value if you ever plan on repeat watching. Sure, some Prime movies are free, but you are at the whim of a company as to its availability.

    It may seem like waxing nostalgic for the olden days, but it is quite honestly an altogether better experience. If I want the "streaming experience", I can just rip them to my NAS and play them through Jellyfin. I'm a lot less worried about my viewing habits being tracked in this medium.

  10. @raccoon I have only seen the blu-ray transfer that got archived and is identical to the U.S. DVD release (except being 1440x1080p24 instead of NTSC @ 60i) , which didn't get the horrible FoxKids edits.

    - So, no it didn't get turned into a 2000s version of "Second Screen Content" 🤢 🤮 ...
