      @millerman9991 it's one thing that these puritans don't like it, but they're literally frothing at the mouth over it. Some going into incredible technical detail about how much they hate it and why they think it looks terrible, while telling everyone they shouldn't buy it.
      If one doesn't like it, or dislikes the process they went through, that's OK. Each to their own, of course, but to hate it so much they have to spread that hate, tell people they're wrong for liking it or that we're idiots for liking/buying them, and that we 'don't understand film' is just insane... yet that's many of these 'purists' are doing all over social media...
      It's madness
      I'm definitely not a fan of heavy or excessive grain, yet all labels use a certain amount of DNR and AI on certain titles to a degree, lest the grain levels be too great. It's just not obvious.
      They all use various forms of sharpening, grain reduction and all manner of image processing to a certain degree. Their claims of the purity of certain releases are false.

      I think people have an issue with Cameron because he's been so totally focused on Avatar for the past 10+ years and it's not without merit because he has let his catalogue titles languish for so long and they truly deserved better but now they're here The Abyss and Aliens are absolutely stunning.

    • @millerman9991
      @millerman9991  3 місяці тому +1

      I have to tell you Chris the equaliser is one fantastic trilogy and no one ever seems to talk about them. I actually thought the third one was the worst of the three but take nothing away from it it's still phenomenal. I think it was advertised as being the last one but I have a funny feeling we're going to see more. Denzel seems to like that role. The opening sequence to that movie is brutal

    • @MUSICLOVER72
      @MUSICLOVER72 3 місяці тому

      The 1st still stands out as the best, but I enjoyed 2 and 3 equally. Like you say, they sit quietly under the radar, and don't shout about how good they are. I checked on-line to see about a 4th installment, and very mixed articles regarding yes/no for another movie, and whether Denzel will be back too. Hopefully yes yes yes 🤞

    • @millerman9991
      @millerman9991  3 місяці тому +1

      Yeah like I said I remember the movie being advertised as being the last equalizer movie but there's something about Denzel demeanor that tells me he might come back again. I never get sick of them and I absolutely agree with you the first one is the best of the three. I have to admit though the ending of part 2 I thought was brilliant.

    Hi, great reviews on The Abyss, True lies and Aliens, can't wait to purchase all three, please would to let me know where you imported the Abyss from, the 4k version of the Abyss is region free, but the blue ray discs are region coded outside the UK, how would you manage to watch these blue ray discs, that are in the Abyss, ultimate edition, especially if its a USA import, looking forward to your next reviews.

    I saw this theatrically in '89. It was a print, so there was more grain than from a negative scan but I have this one now on 4K and it does not look like the theatrical version, and I hate to say that I don't like that. I want to see films in their original form, warts and all. This one removes the grain--there is what looks like very minor grain in the background but I'm not convinced it's not digital noise. I wish Cameron would leave his films alone and acknowledge they were shot on film.

    • @millerman9991
      @millerman9991  3 місяці тому

      Yeah like I said in the video purists won't enjoy what they see here when it comes to this transfer. I think if James Cameron had the means back then chances are he would have shot them the way they look on this 4K release. I almost treat this 4K release as a new experience and it's probably why it feels like I'm watching the movie for the first time. That alone is a gift in itself. But I'm sorry to hear that you didn't get the experience that I got out of it. But thank you so much for stopping by and sharing your thoughts on it. I really appreciate it

    Hi Keith,
    Great review Sir, & rightly so & you expressed positives & a slight gripe for the release of "The Abyss" for sure its going to be a import that many of us will be trying to purchase as there"s no UK release of it now.
    Long awaited this release has been, even though i had the Stinky Tuna blu ray version of it which was watchable you still have to have the proper approved release especially knowing the man himself James Cameron gave the thumbs up for a 4K release of it.
    Thanks for sharing your honest thoughts as always on this release, great work 👍 & totally agree that Ed Harris is such a underrated actor.

      Hey Carlos. This was a no-brainer for myself because I didn't pick up The Bootleg Blu-ray release so chances are I was always getting a monumental upgrade. I just didn't realize how monumental it was going to be. The movie has never looked this good and it was great to finally revisit it but not only revisit it but to see it in a brand new light and that's exactly what I got with this 4K release. If it's ok for James Cameron then it's ok for me. Thank you so much for taking the time to stop by and check it out. All the best to you my friend

    I met Ed Harris years ago in Cork when he was touring his monodrama Wrecks. Very humble guy and also very talented to remember 1.5 hour long monologue. That being said, I've never actually seen this movie although I'd heard of it before. I normally don't blind-buy but upon checking the reviews I thought I'd get it in 4k. Then I saw the prices on ebay and decided to download it from torrents first (60 GB in 4K) and wait until the price drops as it always does (I've just bought Midnight Run in 4K from Amazon US for £20 when it was over £30 upon release last year).

    Glad you were able to get a copy of it despite the National Socalist censorship of the UK. I could almost forgive the video nasties ban as some of those film were so bad it's almost Disney Star Wars level. But anyone I've always loved this film as Cameron seems or seemed to have the same interests as myself. I don't know if I could actually do the abyss though I have a fear of just being over the Marianas let alone going to into Challenger Deep.

    Love this movie and this 4K looks absolutely gorgeous! Whenever I watch one of James Cameron's films like the Abyss, Aliens or True Lies, I can't help but be pissed that he has wasted so much time on those Avatar movies, not that they are bad, but one was enough. I mean, think of the great films we still may have got from him if he didn't focus all his attention on them. I am grateful though for all these beautiful 4K's we are getting and of course The Terminator later this year. My only wish with these 3 that just came out would be that they released them with beautiful steelbook editions, that would have been the icing on the cake. Keep up the great work Keith. Peace!

My pre-order of the Abyss is still in limbo with Amazon.

    My history with this movie is remarkably similar to yours in that I didn't care for it a whole lot for whatever reason when I first saw it and it took a few tries before it really grew on me. I still have some mixed feelings about the ending but the journey getting to there was great. A few nights ago, I just watched my Special Edition DVD that I bought quite a few years back. I thought my Sony UBP-X700 in 'Auto 2' mode for upscaling did a fairly decent job with the video but the Dolby Digital 2.0 audio left something to be desired (except for the water dripping which did sound pretty convincing). It kinda goes without saying but I'm sure this 4K release blows the DVD out of the water! Definitely one to watch in a dark environment.

    • @millerman9991

I still can't get over how beautiful the movie looks on 4k. It almost feels like I'm watching the movie for the first time and that alone is a gift in itself. You are absolutely correct by the way when it comes to watching this in a dark environment and thankfully that's exactly what I get with my movie room. Not a single bit of sunlight gets in there. The thought of looking at the Abyss in a well-lit room really does not appeal to me.

    Hey Keith, no cameras but definitely on the same wavelength. it was a tough decision. I decided I was only going to pick up one of these movies now, and even though the abyss is not my favorite of the three, this is the one I was most curious about as far as how it would look, and how the special affects would hold up. it was a tough decision. Normally I would just went ahead and got all three but over the holidays I went a little crazy and picked up quite a few movies and several those were fairly expensive box sets and I’m also a big vinyl guy I have a bunch of records pre-ordered, and fortunately and unfortunately several of them have shipped and at $125 a record it’s starting to get to me🙂 i’m sure you know what I mean.
    I couldn’t agree more you really can’t argue with James Cameron this is what he wants them to look like that’s OK with me as they look more or less how I would expect them to look as I’m sure you can see in his more recent films. He’s definitely going for a more modern clean look if he have the ability back in 89 that’s exactly what they would’ve look like back then at least that’s the way I look at it. can’t wait for the true lies review one of my all Time favorites from him the more I talk about it I think I’m gonna break down and pick up the other two I don’t think I can wait now. Have a great one as always.

      That is a good point that you made by the way when it comes to James Cameron because if he had the means back then chances are that's exactly how the movies would have looked. Don't get me wrong I don't want to be seen this on every single release but for these releases I think it worked very well.
      But I know what you mean when it comes to overspending and sometimes you have to be smart. Even now somebody sent me a link to the child play 4K collection that's on sale and I had to say no. I'm hoping that won't come back to haunt me.

    Hi Keith, I do agree this looks very good and not as bad as some say but it is completely different from it’s original film print. Grain is there but has clearly been scrubbed away ( just look at the FOX logo at the start) but the AI upscaling is much better at reducing grain nowadays than the old waxy look. It is different looking and a very modern digital look but we must respect this is how Cameron wants it to look now. I too have always loved this film and its message (very current too) especially of course in the much preferred Special Edition version. 👍🏻 Aliens however looks truly awful to me, the overly grainy look to that film added to the experience and in a interview on the special features Cameron actually states he chose a certain type of film to get that grainy look. We all have different set ups and picture preferences so as you say it’s your own personal choice on how it looks so there is no definitive answer. Sound is great on all of them though.

I think it worked incredibly well for the James Cameron movies and like I said in the video if it's okay by him then it's okay by me. There is no question about it the grain structure has been scrubbed down but it's still there. Like I said in the video if you go close enough you will notice it. Unfortunately I can't say the same for True Lies. But look I will let my video do the talking on that one. When it comes to aliens I actually had the Blu-ray and the 4K sitting side-by-side and in my eyes there's only one clear winner. But look it's not for everybody.

      Hey Laura. If you go into my description you'll see a website called HD movie source. They are a family run business and if you reach out to them and tell them that I sent you over there they will look after you in terms of price. Another option for you is Amazon Italy but it's not out until sometime in April. I hope that helps you out

    I used to love collecting physical format but once blu ray was took over with 4k discs I kind of lost interest as eventually they will do 8k and your buying all over again but great reviews on your channel from Newcastle England

      I have to tell you John I think 4K is going to be the last physical Media format. I know there is 8k tvs out there but I don't think we're going to see 8K Blu-rays. But thank you so much for taking the time to stop by and check out my reviews. I really do appreciate the support

    Damn, missed this review, so didn't know the Blu-ray was all regions, ordered and received Italian copy a couple of hours ago.. Though it was much more cost effective.

Watched a number of 'older' movies of late, quite few I remember the 'muh' feeling, I think age/perspective helps you realise how good they actually are.. Thanks for reply..
