UHD BD to BD?
I just use MPC-HC to create the thumbnail.

Why in the hell is there a Russian sub right there? There's nothing in a foreign language there!

I'm actually glad there are no English subs on the Spanish parts. Bummer for you in the US, better for us abroad.

Yea, noticed you use MPC-HC, soon as I posted. Will use MPC-BE for mine which is the same.

Yea, the Russian sub is a strange one, considering its the only one.

Doesn't seem to be an upscale of the HD master, as the opening Fox logo is different, the framing is different, showing less on the left and more on the right, it seems. Plus the absence of English burnt-in subs on Spanish parts inside Esperanza's plane. As for color timing, it's different again.

The stretch 20th Century is at least correct. That should be the same the original Die Hard

X5gb, tell me, are there English burnt-in subs in Die Hard 3 on the German dialogues? No weird solo Russian sub that appears for no reason?

May try your default on Die Hard 2, Die Hard 3 happy with these settings.

I can't wait to see that DH3 in motion for myself. These aren't exactly the shots I have in mind regarding the 35mm print I saw and took pictures from. Except the one in the Fed's van. Overall, it seems to look better than the Blu-ray but not as drastic a change in colors as I was expecting it to be.

If you post timecodes or screenshots of the scenes your thinking of I'll post the equivalent shots (or close as) from the 4k.
