Would also like mention one of my recent favorites, Prospect https://www.blu-ray.com/movies/Prosp...lu-ray/290282/. Great movie, and one of the best looking 4ks in my opinion. |
I only saw
The Abyss once, because a friend of mine brought the DVD over. It was an okay film, but not something I would call "very good" or "the best" by any stretch of the imagination. Aside from
Terminator 2,
Titanic, and to a lesser extent
True Lies, I can't actually name one James Cameron film I'm a big fan of...unless you count his matte-painting work on
Escape From New York. I saw one documentary on a more detailed breakdown of the actual Titanic sinking - it was featured on a recent Blu-Ray release. But to be honest, I got bored less than halfway through - for such a talented director, James really seems to enjoy hearing himself talk more than letting anyone else have input.
Back to the HDReport website list, I looked over it a second time, and here's a few more possible options that stood out for me:
Interstellar (I've never seen it),
Arrival (looks mildly interesting), and
Ready Player One (mostly because I loved video games as a kid). Everything else they listed was either part of a franchise I'm already planning to upgrade, or just didn't appeal to me.
