Is it really? Google Maps says it is around two hours. I just drove four hours from San Antonio to Houston, and it isn't that bad for a one-time or occasional trip.
4 hours? How fucking slow do you drive? There must have been major traffic or an accident somewhere because it's usually 3hrs.

We had to select that venue, as every other cinema has laser projection/3d sound on one, maybe two, screens at the most. Given that Guardians Of The Galaxy 2 is out, and it's a bank holiday weekend, we'd never be able to hire one of the main screens.
At the Southampton Showcase Cinema De Lux *every* screen has laser projection/3d sound.  . We're screen 3, btw!
There'll be a fair few people going down both for the day, or staying overnight, I reckon you could find a posse to travel with!
_Jay_ you can PM me your addy on here and I'll update the shipping info 
There *might* be a Stateside screening in L.A. Couldn't really hold the backer survey up any more than we otherwise had, but shall keep everyone updated!
CDJay
I'll PM you my new addy as well!

Paid my extras now, super psyched!
Can't make the movies as I am on call that weekend :( but my wife says I can by a 55" Samsung 4k Telly & a PS4 (with the new Wipeout) to make up for it :)

I actually started in Boerne and drove all the way to the NASA area, so I had to go all the way across both cities plus a little extra.

**Backer only deluxe edition of the long awaited "Blu the Roof".
UHD Blu-ray/Blu-ray combo, contained in limited edition packaging with additional USB containing:
1080p Digital Copy of video content
Stereo audio mixes in .wav format
Stereo music only mixes in .wav format
Exclusive unmixed tracks in .wav format
Gallery, general bonus content fun ;)
so this is even more extra stuff that can be added now; that we have not already pledged for?

GrahamC; fair warning, the PS4 (or Pro) doesn't play UHD Blu-ray discs. Absolutely F**ing stupid decision by Sony IMO. I'd wait for the Xbox Scorpio, personally. Or get a second hand Xbox One S for now Samsung 55ks8000 is solid for the money!

Nah, it's the same "deluxe edition" anyone who pledged at ?45 or above will be getting. It's just listed as an add-on in case someone wanted an extra copy for a friend (or posterity). It's not very clear, as various high level backers have asked to tack on the USB. No need!
Great response, heartening stuff.

Thanks
It has to be a PS4 so I can play Wipeout (been my fav game for years and years now) but I will just tack on a Samsung BD player as well that supports it, they have a small enough footprint and it will be hidden in a cupboard anyway :)
The 55KS8000 is exactly the fella I am after though :)

Cheapest Samsung UHD Blu ray player is north of ?200, fair warning
(normal BD players won't handle UHD discs, even if they can upsample standard Blu rays to 4k)

Awesome news about the UHD combo! We've a 4K screen but I don't honestly think we'll ever buy a UHD player.
I mean it seems a bit odd, technology is surely moving virtual now, we own maybe 7 blu-rays and the only reason for that is because we became stuck for ideas what to get each other for christmas...and the other 5 for ?1 each at a car boot. Literally everything else is streamed over DLNA from the PC upstairs. The blu-rays basically never get put in because cba waiting for all that loading, and trailers blah blah blah.
So I can only imagine that the amount of UHD media we will ever own will be in the region of about 1. XD
Don't get me wrong, I think it's *cool* that we'll have a UHD combo, but in the scheme of things a 4k file on a thumb drive would be more accessible! ;)

yeah the problem with netflix style/ usb style files is the compression, the netflix 4k stuff to me looks like what blu-ray is! never watched a uhd blu-ray yet!

We wanted a 100gb uhd Blu ray for bitrate, but as it's low light and minimal scene changes uhd66 will do. Had to press 3000 units mind. Not kidding when we say it makes every rave/concert film look like 240p by comparison. The lighting and environment are like a best case showcase for hdr. Accidental win.

We think ahead; the bulk of the cost is in filming, grading and authoring.
Having the first uhd blu ray in dance music, with a premiere, buys us press and clout. Those same assets work on Youtube and other services down the line. We were shooting high, but initially only in genre comparison. Full credit to Fracus, he spent 10 days assembling and editing! The first few 4k YouTube videos included a K-pop thing that got 25 million hits very quickly thanks to tech press and readers.
This is the best genre showcase we've ever had. I plan to use it. Thanks to y'all ❤

Unless UHD uses different kind of laser, I wouldn't be suprised that they will add it to a update later on.
