    The included regular Blu-ray is the old poor transfer. Pity Paramount didn't upgrade that too. Perhaps a reaction to the universal double dipping criticism of Paramount releasing 4k transfers on regular Blu-ray followed a year later by the 4K UHD disc. Be careful what you wish for!

      ​@@Spider-Man1408Every 4K release could have Atmos, and it's always cool to have on a disc (even Disney At-Mouse tracks imo), just sometimes it's not really necessary. For example, it wouldn't really be much of a benefit if a movie like 12 Angry Men got an Atmos upgrade. But again, it's always nice when the effort is put in to upgrade a movie's audio track

    Thanks Jeff! I feel every 4K release should have an GOOD Atmos upgrade/track because to me.. its about 1/2 of the reason for the rebuy of old/price of new 4K discs. Mark my words .. after we all buy these sub par 4k releases they will do (new&improved upgrades that now include a new "Upgraded Dolby Atmos Track" and we will be forced to rebuy yet again.

    • @wiremuwifebash
      @wiremuwifebash Рік тому +2

  • @Saturn2888
    @Saturn2888 Рік тому +1

    I watched Weekend at Bernie's, and the quality is HORRIBLE. It's like what you said, DVD upscales. There are quite a few early Blu-rays that simply don't have the quality you'd expect from a 45Mb/s 1080p video. Also, a lot of older Blu-rays use VC-1 instead of H.264 probably for licensing reasons, but the quality of VC-1 can cause blocking artifacts and other issues like MPEG-2. Not ideal.
    Even still, having _any_ Blu-ray edition is better than DVD. Because of the interlacing issue, and low resolution, Blu-ray is just _so_ bad. I can't watch anything on DVD because of it. The horrible quality is too distracting.

    Regarding the audio, on my copy, the music drowned out the narrator of the TruTalk introduction. Granted, I don't even have a soundbar, let alone a full speaker setup, so maybe it's just a technical limitation on my end.

    Yesterday It arrived on my shelf at home from ordering last month. I played it yesterday night and finished it today (because I was very tired of work, i fell asleep at almost the end). The std bluray is included in this package but I did not watched that. The 4K is an upgrade for the DVD I got many years ago. I can say that this is a very good picture quality Dolby Vision HDR (I prefere this over std HDR10 though). Awesome release!

    • @RyanWard1987
      @RyanWard1987 Рік тому +3

      Same! It’s funny because I actually hadn’t thought of this in quite a while, but I was like 10 or 11 or so back then and I used to occasionally think this about myself/my life as well… even before the movie came out😬
      I didn’t really have a “word” for it back then (although “simulation” would’ve been a good fit had I known of it back then, lol…), and I never thought of it as a “TV show” or anything (iirc), but I do remember thinking everything all around me was “put on” most of the time, generally because it would legitimately feel that way fairly often, lol.
      But the thing that always *really* messed with me though, was that I only really started thinking about it around the time shortly before seeing the trailer😳
      So naturally, when I saw the trailer, I thought it was “them” showing me something, or sort of “teasing” me in effect, especially since Jim Carrey was also my favorite actor at the time, lol (I was obsessed with The Mask and Ace Ventura 1&2).
      Crazy that a lot of us have all shared the same feeling at one point or another! Certainly makes for a great premise for a film, of which this is a perfectly executed version, in my opinion👍

      Yeah I remember feeling very troubled of the idea that everything was fake around me. It made me sick for years. Can’t express how deeply this movie had an affect on me. Now I’m going to by it on 4K lol full circle.
      Another thing is I grew up Mormon, served a 2 year mission and everything. Now I’m out, found out everything about Joseph Smith, Book of Mormon … found out it’s a fraud. I bring this up because a lot of ex Mormons reference this movie as their exit from Mormonism lol. So In so many more ways this movie has felt like my life. Thanks for listening.

      But yeah you also described the vibe/feeling way better than I did (plus how could I forget Dumb & Dumber?!
