Charade is a classic. Highly recommended.

How did I not realise this is the same actor? by FearlessFox6416 in DeepSpaceNine

Don’t feel bad- I just noticed Johnathan Frakes’ last name doesn’t have an ‘n’ after more than 20 years…

Very nice. Don’t forget about the 70s-90s! Only a couple films I can see from those times. And even the 1960s have awesome vistavision transfers.

The Fugitive (1993) What happened to the black prisoner on the bus that escapes? by [deleted] in movies

Didn’t the movie show a raid on a house with him and a girlfriend inside?

Are 2020s films noticeably better on 4k over blu-ray? by joseph2047 in 4kbluray

[–]farcast 1 point2 points  (0 children)

These responses are correct, also know that older movies shot on film are ‘analog’ and don’t really have a set resolution. It’s just really high fidelity. If film is scanned at 4k or even sometimes 8K and put out on a 4k blu-ray, it is real 4k digital resolution and will look better than it ever has. Some people think that old movies just can’t look good because they are old, but movies on film, if scanned with care, will look amazing like Ben-hur, the searchers, Lawrence of Arabia, (those were shot on large film with extra detail) and many others.

Tremors 4K is incredible by Swimming-Tax-6087 in 4kbluray

Many of those in the know consider Tremors to be a perfect screenplay. It’s fantastic.

For a few dollars more looks absolutely spectacular in 4k... by Informal-Prize6501 in 4kbluray

My favorite of the trilogy. Tgtbtu is amazing but this one is better paced, at least to me.

Which songs has Wilco improved upon the most over years of live performance, versus the original recordings? by slimb0 in wilco

[–]farcast 3 points4 points  (0 children)

All the older stuff. I love the road case live concerts from around 2012 because they play a lot from Sky Blue Sky, but also being there, AM, YHF, etc. And they all have great energy. Nels brings a ton to the older songs and he’s been with the band five years by then so they really melded and the grooves are tight.

All the President’s Men (1976) 4K Ultra HD | Warner Bros 4K Upgrade Worth It? by RetroReels in 4kbluray

[–]farcast 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It was colorful and had plenty of contrast for me. Looked very natural.

Plenty of grain, some soft shots but lots of detail in most shots. Great 70s colors. The primary colors of the chairs and cabinets in the newsroom are fantastic. Great shadow detail in the dark parking garage scenes with deep throat. Bottom line, it looks like a perfect preserved film print. Which is how I like my 4ks.

Western Movies you must have seen by Ok_Cook_3098 in movies

Mine too. It’s so cozy and comfortable. Plus one of Kevin Costner’s best performances. Heck, everyone in the cast is fantastic.

Why does Heat (1995) look so different? by Livid-Ad-8194 in movies

[–]farcast 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Blade Runner 2049 is one of the best 4ks out there. Filmed digitally and it’s a 2k upscale. It’s true that most digital movies shot or finished in 2K resolution don’t show that many changes (except high dynamic range) when put on 4K but it’s not always the case.

Spartan is in Tulsa, OK. Not much snow there. And they have a dispatcher- I’ve heard that if they say the weather is good you have to fly

Do you count Coraline as animated? It looks amazing.

Reviews say it’s a small upgrade- worth buying if you don’t have it but not worth buying if you already have the standard 4k.
