Oldboyz II Oldmen

Great movie alert! Park Chan-wook's Oldboy made the rounds at cinemas earlier this year with a 4K restoration honoring its 20th anniversary -- I didn't make it out to see it but that's okay because I will now have the opportunity at home, as Neon is releasing the 4K on December 12th! In a very fancy edition! You can buy it here on Neon's website or if you prefer via Amazon, although two things -- Amazon isn't saying whether this is the same edition as the one Neon has listed yet, and two, it's more expensive on Amazon. If they are one and the same (and I suspect they are) the extras are jam-packed though so I recommend buying it somewhere. 

I actually haven't seen Oldboy in quite some time and I have a feeling that, in comparison to PCW's other movies now that I have seen them all -- Oldboy was for me, like I suspect it was for most people outside of South Korea, the first one of his movies I ever saw -- Oldboy might not even be in my top five anymore? I should try to rank them at some point, shouldn't I? It would give me an excuse to re-watch them all again, which is always a happy prospect. But if you ask me the man just gets better and better -- his last two, Decision To Leave and The Handmaiden, are full on masterpieces. And -- before a re-watch, mind you -- I would right now rank the other two movies in the Vengeance trilogy over Oldboy. And my love for Thirst is boundless! And then there's the criminally underrated Stoker! I don't even know how to choose when it comes to Master Park! He's one of the greatest working today.
