Spider man trilogy box set in 4K? - Blu-ray Forum

wondervamp · 07-22-2015, 02:21 AM

Does anyone know if the first Spider-Man trilogy come in a 4K mastered box set? I see the individual 1-3 in 4K but not in a box set. Am I missing it somewhere?

Don't believe it ever did, but FYI:

Spiderman 1 mastered in 4k clearly better than the previous Blu-ray
Spiderman 2 mastered in 4k color timing IMO worse than the previous Blu-ray
Spiderman 3 no significant difference

So really, IMO the Spiderman 1 is the only one I'd seek out in 4k mastered.

Okay, thank you so much for the information Ruined.

Hence the fact that Spider-Man 2 4k is on sale for $10.99 now on Amazon.

Plus Spider-Man 2 MI4K you don't get version 2.1 I don't think. I could be wrong though. I like 2.1 better than the theatrical cut!

I can confirm that, and I didn't realize that until after I sold my original 2K version. Now I'm bummed because the digital copy only has 2.1 in SD (not sure why) so I don't have a good copy of 2.1 anymore.

Just re-buy the 2K Spider-Man 2 blu with version 2.1 on it. There bro, problem solved. The 2K disc has a fantastic transfer IMO.

They all do really. I have the basic set and all of them are great transfers. I'll get the 4k version of the original at some point, but they all look great either way (and I really like 2.1 for the sequel as well).

True, even the first film's original transfer isn't terrible. Its the only one that I have a mastered in 4K disc for. There is a noticeable difference between the 2 as far as color and detail goes though, the winner being the MI4K disc.

When you say 2.1...are you talking about stereo?

I think the 2.1 is in reference to it being a alternate/extended cut of the film.

Aha...

I've got the 2012 Editions of Spider-Man and Spider-Man 2 and the 2007 2-Disc Edition of Spider-Man 3. I am extremely happy with them and I think that that the transfers on those editions are already excellent.

I agree. The only one I double dipped on was the first one. I did buy the MI4K version and there is a considerable difference. Doesn't mean the original 2K transfer is bad though, it's most definitely not. Spider-Man 2 and 3 look fantastic! I can't imagine the MI4K discs looking that much better.

Geoff D · 07-22-2015, 10:57 AM

The Mi4K versions of the first two films look terrific to me, there's a noticeable increase in high frequency detail. Never much cared for 2.1 so I'm happy with the theatrical cut.

It did not.
Only individually and without Special Features.

Cortiz · 07-22-2015, 11:55 AM

Does anyone knows if the 4K versions are still shipping with the Slips from Amazon?

Both Spider-Man 2 and Spider-Man 3 were reference quality for Blu-Ray when they were first released on the format back in October of 2007.

When I first watched Spider-Man 2 on Blu-Ray, I was blown away by how incredible the presentation was. Honestly, the Blu-Ray of Spider-Man 2 almost annihilates the old SuperBit DVD which was reference quality.

What about The Amazing Spider-Man 1st movie in comparison to the 4k version? Can anyone comment on advantages or disadvantages?

Agreed, they both look great and extremely film-like.
