Koyaaniqatsi, Powaqquatsi, Nagoyqatsi Blu Ray's. - Blu-ray Forum

Watched the jaw dropping (Arrow) Powaqquatsi today soon to be followed by Koyaanisqatsi

Does anyone have the UK version of Naqoyqatsi, how does it look for PQ and AQ as I can not find any reviews of this release?

PS
Apologies for the grammar in the title.

I thought Crit and Arrow used the same exact transfer.

If there is a difference, I'd like to know.

The Crit trio is absolutely stunning.

Arrow only released the first two.

schan1269 · 03-28-2015, 10:29 PM

Aaahhh.

Shows how much attention I pay to distributors. I assumed all three were Arrow. At another forum, there was a(n all too) brief discussion with some not waiting for the Criterion.

I waited.

The Arrow version have (by a whisker) better PQ.

Watched Koyaanisqatsi last night an I was even more blown away with this one. Superb.

I definitely think Koyaanisqatsi is the best of the trilogy. Just something about the imagery and the music in that one is more powerful than the sequels.

Whenever I've shown Koyannisqatsi to somebody the first time...

30 minutes in...

"Uhm...ok, I get it."

30 minutes later...

"Uh, wuh...wait...wha?"

End credits...

"Let me process that for a bit..."

Baraka, Chronos and Samsara never get that reaction...

So given I'm no longer limited by region codes, should I get the Criterion or the Arrow release? I'm guessing Criterion has the edge with the extras at least.

Criterion only sells the trilogy.(last I checked....back when I purchased)

If you only want Koy, Arrow it is.
