I sold mine off. It was an incredibly disappointing release.

I'm in Australia, and since Amazon stopped shipping, I still haven't found a French online store that sells to us!

Great news though.

The UHD has issues, but it's not as bad as all that

It's worse than the fixed Blu-ray. The Blu-ray is actually sharper!

Sharper is better? This isn't the cliffhanger thread then

You seem very forgiving of flawed releases. Fact is, if a BD beats a 4K disc in detail and grain resolving, something is screwed. It should be the other way around.

Do I? Most people think I am beyond harsh

I would rather watch that than T2, Jurassic Park or the Bourne movies

It might be a different story if Richard Rubenstein weren't holding elements hostage.

I agree 100%.

If a BD is gonna be of better quality, why the hell even have a 4K format?

The UHD is better than the regular BD 99% of the time, the remaining 1% is not the format's fault, there has been botched releases on every format.
