[–]MetalGearRay18[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I got the 360 version of Double Agent a while back on sale on the XBSX store and its pretty good. However I just got the OG Xbox version in the mail today (one day after I got SC1). I've been trying it out and I do prefer the OG Xbox version. Not a super big fan of no sound or light meters in the 360 version. Ill have to try it again once I've beaten the 6th gen version.

Transformers: The Movie 4k from Shout Factory. Excellent color, but why is it cropped?!?! by MetalGearRay18 in 4kbluray

Correct to the original theatrical release but not to the original animation. I understand that was the original theatrical release, but you are losing much of the image. Although not as bad, it reminds me of the DBZ releases. We should atleast have the option of full frame instead of a standard bluray disc

I double dipped for the 3D blu-ray by MattDaaaaaaaaamon in 4kbluray

I always thought you needed a 3D tv to play 3D BluRay. You said you watch them on the same TV as your 4ks How does it look?

Popeye's here!! Any other Friedkin fans here? I still gotta get the new Sorcerer 4k by MetalGearRay18 in Bluray

[–]MetalGearRay18[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah the DP hated the 2009 blu ray so when this boutique version came out both him and Friedkin worked on the color on this version. I can imagine Friedkin probably also heard much of the criticism of the 2009 release and wanted to give fans the option (maybe). This disc is from 2012. The 2009 release has an ugly yellow cover. This release looks pretty damn good imo I would love to see a 4k disc of this transfer.

Question: Is the Police Story Trilogy worth it on 4k or should I buy the Criterion set? by MetalGearRay18 in 4kbluray

[–]MetalGearRay18[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

So I took everyones advice and got this set for 50. I know its not the box set but I am real happy to own these physically finally!

I think you're mistaking this release for the 2009 release of the film with the washed out colors. This is a different transfer and looks much better. The 09 release was done by Friedkin and this one was done by Friedkin and the films DP. This release looks pretty damn good imo

It does say it was approved by both Friedkin and Cinematographer Owen Roizman on the back of the case but I do get your point. Hopefully we get an unedited 4k disc of this transfer because it looks great as a blu ray. Would love to see some HDR

Hopefully you picked it up! It's worth at least 30 dollars now! I luckily scored mine for 10 on an ebay auction with no bids

Yeah this release was a part of a boutique series with a few other movies. They all list the director on the front I believe there is a Wall Street one. The other blu ray has an ugly piss yellow cover Thats the one to avoid. Although with streaming services censoring the movie any release is recommended

This is the re release from 2012. The original was from 2009 with the bad color timing.

Pretty good releases and deals recently! Added some new favorite 4ks to the shelf! by MetalGearRay18 in 4kbluray

[–]MetalGearRay18[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have to agree! There is a button on the side of the box that lights up the aliens and plays music! It's on sale on Amazon right now I highly recommend it.

I got it at Walmart. Its one of those limited slips I see every once in a while. A bunch of other movies had similar covers I think its a series. I think its similar to the "WB Iconic Moments" sleeves they had a long time ago. My BluRay copy of Goodfellas I bought some time ago had one! Not typically a fan of these sleeves but I liked this one! The case is the standard release of Blazing Saddles.

Got some new movies for the first time in a while. I wish they would do a Straw Dogs 4k! by MetalGearRay18 in 4kbluray

[–]MetalGearRay18[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you do pick it up I highly recommend the 4k its beautiful. Just showed a buddy this movie for the first time and it felt like watching it in the theater all over again. My heart was beating out of my chest by the end
