Kino Lorber have detailed their upcoming 4K Blu-ray and Blu-ray releases of Babe (1995) and Babe: Pig in the City (1998). The releases are scheduled to arrive on the market on December 16.
Babe 4K Blu-ray
Description: "This is the story of an unprejudiced heart and how it changed our valley forever." So begins Babe, the timeless tale of a young, orphaned piglet from the mind of George Miller (Mad Max, Happy Feet). Through his own innocence, sheer will and remarkable way with words, Babe overcomes the odds to become a "pig of destiny." His enchanting adventure begins in Farmer Hoggett's barnyard. Under the care of Fly, the sheep dog, Babe figures he's a sheep dog, too—and acts like it! But on a farm where outlandish antics and outrageous characters abound, you'll come to believe it yourself—and root for the polite little pig as he competes in the National Sheep Dog Championships. Nominated for seven Academy Awards including Best Picture and Best Supporting Actor (James Cromwell) and winner for Best Visual Effects, Babe is a hilarious, heartwarming classic your family will love watching again and again!
Special Features and Technical Specs:
DISC ONE - 4K BLU-RAY
Description: "Even more imaginative" (The Washington Post) than the original classic Babe, Babe: Pig in the City takes the three musketeers Babe, Ferdy and Mrs. Hoggett on a crusade in the midst of a bustling metropolis where despite incredible obstacles, they're able to turn enemies into friends, raise enough money to save the farm and combine the two worlds into one. Once again, it's Babe's kind and steady heart that achieves the miracles in this beloved motion picture that's bursting at the seams with high-spirited fantasy and wonderment! Delightfully directed by George Miller (Mad Max, Happy Feet), Pig in the City sees Magda Szubanski and James Cromwell reprising their roles as the Hoggetts, with Mickey Rooney joining the fun as Fugly Floom, for a "magical" (Roger Ebert) journey that's been heralded a "masterpiece" (Chicago Reader)!
