The first Lost World JP 4K scan despite looking great in the first glace killed by the encoding issues and black crush; the rest is revisionist mess (the first 4K releases). There is NO mention for the OG unmatrixed 5.1 mixes of these films, means wait for the DTS LD sync for the first two and the DTS CD-ROM for the third one; if the scan and restoration done right than the first releases

Does anyone have an easy way of de-crypting youtube videos with DRM?

Nice to see the expanded scenes in the home release of Sinners.
avatar
Agreed
avatar
Its a very film looking transfer

Sweet looks like Master and Commander is coming to 4K. I hope the LFE has the full range that the DVD did
avatar
very unlickly. but you can remux it if it's the case
avatar
The DTS Cinema would be the best one to take the LFE channel, and then take the 5 channels from the BD as a hybrid version. Then again, the DTS Cinema LFE functions differently to other surround sound systems...

Lol

Lol indeed. How convenient to just quote paid reporter/shills when there were long-time fans attending the event as well. They most likely would have said very different things. I bet most of them have had the Despecialized and 4K77 at home for years and thought nothing was jarring but just right, and had a blast seeing it in a theater.
