Some time last year NetFlix UK started streaming John Carpenter's Big Trouble In Little China (1986). As with Die Hard, the HD master was different to previous releases. It looks to be a new scan (possibly 4K) with different colour timing and a much darker tone. It has since stopped streaming on NetFlix UK but thankfully I capped it. Here it is!
Format: MKV 1080p (18.3GB), Blu Ray Compliant
Video Source: High Quality Web Stream, with 35mm grain plate to improve film look and mitigate compression artifacts
Audio Tracks (Source: Arrow UK Blu Ray release):
1. 2.0 Dolby Surround 24bit,48kHz PCM (From the Theatrical Dolby Stereo)
2. 5.1 DTS HD-Master Audio (From the Dolby 70mm 6-Track, Mono Surround)
3. Audio Commentary Featuring Director John Carpenter and Actor Kurt Russell
Available via mega download. PM me for links

Just remember what ol' Jack Burton does when the earth quakes, and the poison arrows fall from the sky, and the pillars of Heaven shake. Yeah, Jack Burton just looks that big ol' storm right square in the eye and he says, "Give me your best shot, pal ... I can take it.
Great movie awesome lines, thanks for the share!

Loving the darker tone and color timing of this release along with the slight extra info at the sides, thanks zoidberg. Hopefully this transfer comes to bluray shortly, this will be my go to version until then. You didn't happen to do the same with Die Hard did you, would love to see that to.

I've been looking all over for this - my recent Amazon video copy was noticeably too-bright in many scenes.

I will go to a 35mm screening tonight. Anything you guys want me to look for while watching it? A specific scene or color?

I'd like to know what colour the fight scene is in the alley when the storms first appear. Above all, enjoy! It's Miller time
