[Completed/Released] Wizarding World: Ultimate Definitive Edition

[Klexos]

I know I posted already but I wasn't quite happy yet with the new version. 
So I ended up reworking it again, and I'm finally happy about how Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them turned out and can continue the revamp with the next movies.

v1 was 68 GB
v2 is 99.8 GB. Has 7.1 audio thanks to @Amadian, completely reworked and improved HDR and A.I. Enhancement and 62% more bitrate, as well as remuxed in subtitles.

As already mentioned this significant v2 revamp will include only the Extended HDR copies.

Currently contemplating a way to host the new files for your enjoyment.

Screenshots:


As always keep in mind these are HDR to SDR screenshots meaning a lot of color, dark and bright detail gets clipped out by the SDR limitations.

WOW.
This new version looks better for me. It has a more natural look and grain is pleasant to the eye. Cannot wait. Congrats!

[Amadian]

I love the evolution of your technique, my friend. These are even more beautiful than the previous take. Awesome effort!

Great job, I'm happy I found this.

New to these forums, how does one get a copy of these lovely pieces of work?

Fantastic Beasts: The Crimes of Grindelwald v2 completed.

Once again, 7.1 Audio thanks to @Amadian, expanded ratio, extended runtime and included subtitles.
Completely overhauled HDR grading and re-done from scratch A.I. Enhancement, more natural, more bitrate, better than v1 in every single aspect.

v1 was 86GB
v2 is 123GB

One thing I invite everyone to take notice of is that the new versions are actually using those nits and wider color gamut given by the HDR format much more efficiently as opposed to the earlier versions. For this reason now when watching these files on an SDR screen or even an HDR screen that has less than 300nits you will actually miss out on white and black detail.
As observable also through these HDR to SDR comparisons and screenshots, you can see the brighter and darker areas now simply clipping out due to the conversion. In the v1 this was less obvious as I tried to compromise on that front to not completely alienate SDR users but that resulted in HDR versions that were much duller and less impressive than they could had been I realized.
No more. V2s are specifically and focus-made for HDR screens fully using the capabilities of the technology and format. Sorry for the SDR faithful bunch here.

Despite not being a very good movie plotwise, I do think it's one of the better looking ones from the franchise and I'm glad if I managed to highlight it's visual quality.

[Amadian]

Yeah, this movie now looks waaaay better than it actually has the right to.

[SHM]

WOW... they look amazing mate.
They look official! Keep it up
You have improved so much over this past years.
Those really are definitive editions.... thanks!

Despite being a slight improvement over FB2 in terms of plot and not as confusing, I find this one way less visually interesting. It also has a weird effect that blurs everything with some slight old school 3Dish green and red chromatic aberration on the sides. No idea what the idea with that was.

Hey I’m new to this and I’m interested in this project. I can’t private message so how do I acquire links to the movies? Is this how this works? Thanks!
