I'd hope they would know the general opinion of that UHD and would therefore not bother doing a new fancy collectors edition without a new transfer. We shall see.

My steelbook of Zack Snyder’s Justice League got delayed, I’m hoping Best Buy doesn’t cancel my order. :ohdear:

If you ordered the steelbook this is a common problem. Some people have started getting notifications of their copies being shipped.

Some months ago people on twitter were sharing a 35mm scan version of Terminator 2.

I personally don't mind the color timing changes to the UHD in this comparison, it's mainly the horrendous DNR job they did after knowing full well how those scrub jobs are perceived by the people buying the films. Half the UHD looks fantastic, the rest is Madame Tussauds.

I didn’t like that movie at all honestly. I was deeply disappointed. It wasn’t bad but I really expected a creature feature and I got something else, and that something else didn’t click. I’m not trying to play opposite I just didn’t care for it.

I like it a lot, but I also agree that I wish it focused more on the Krampus than on all of the random Christmas-themed monsters. A home invasion movie but it's a Christmas goat demon would've been pretty amazing.

V oh, whoops. But my point still stands

Oh I was talking about rare exports. I think Krampus is perfect. I love the way they build up the titular creature and his full intro is incredible.

I believe that's just a program for indie producers and distributors. I know they recently scaled it back too. You have to opt in as the original owner of the property for that to be available.

I gave up on ever getting a Blu-ray of Keenan Ivory Wayan’s near perfect dumb movie, Most Wanted. So I just bought it on Prime.

I remember a trailer with him saying something like this but wasn’t sure which movie it was for.

Yes. It’s dumb, but also a lot of fun. Feels a lot like a video game.

Not the one from All That Jazz. That was very elaborately staged and choregraphed.

Just picked up a copy of Kurosawa’s Ran for about $12 on Amazon. It’s the Studio Canal print. Not a bad price and if anybody else is in the US, s’a pretty good movie.

LoL I'm blocked by that account for some reason but drat is that nice. There's a 35mm scan of True Lies out there too. True Lies has a legit HD master you can get on VOD or watch on TV that I'd call "fine," but it's still fun to watch the film scan. I'd forgotten "the look" of a workhorse multiplex print. The grain, the little jitters, the luminosity. As an almost-old, it gives me the warm fuzzies.

I think there might actually be an HD widescreen version of the Abyss that they use for TV. It's probably not perfect but I'll bet it's a lot better than the 4:3 DVD that's the only loving copy of the movie you can buy.

Heads up: the Mulholland Drive Criterion UHD on Amazon dropped in price by like $15 so I pre-ordered it.

I also ordered like 5 other UHDs in the past couple days :shepspends: We had a hurricane hit here and there was like a week and a half period where I wasn't ordering anything online, so once that ended, I kinda went on a little shopping spree lol
