Absolutely unbelievable that I’ve never noticed that in all these years of watching the film.

YouTube: “The Abyss” (1989) scene, with a glaring distraction

Warning: don’t watch that unless you want to see a goof that you will see forever and always every time you watch the film now.

He leaves that, but paints out Robert's balls for T2. Priorities.

Yeah, he was sacked for that.

Odd plot summary. The Montana wasn’t “mysteriously attacked”. More like it was just in the wrong place at the wrong time and dude at the helm didn’t notice a massive cliff wall until it was too late.

That's ad verbatim from the VHS cover. Clearly it's what Fox thought would shift copies at the time.

Like reusing old masters, Jimbo goes for low-hanging fruit.

Plums?

Finally received my copy from Amazon (US). Pristine condition, no scratches (even though they stacked the UHD on top of the bonus disc). Phew. This brought back nightmares from when I had to exchange one of the Star Wars UHDs several times before I got a fully playable copy. Those damn stacking cases.

Really? I guess that Arnold's shadowed, swinging willy will be removed from 'The Terminator' UHD too.

That's impossible. James Cameron looked at every pixel of every frame to make sure it was just right.

Not their most biting of satire, but Spitting Image was prone to being juvenile on more than the odd occasion...

I certainly thought it was a ballsy move!

[Rollo Tomassi]

On second thought, JC certainly wanted T2 to be a "balls-out" experience for the viewer!

Actually watching the new transfer for the first time.

It's... quite distracting (in motion).

Try the slow-motion feature in your 4K Blu-ray player ...

Putting the disc in the garbage bin would improve things

Is that what you did with your Abyss 4K disk?

[Vincanws]

Happily the replacement disc is playing perfect. It was a great looking and great sounding movie in 4k before but now it’s all that and it doesn’t fragment, skip and lose soundtrack sync-up in spots.

Progress established. Plus no sticker on the front of the slip-case, omg wtf happened?

Can't contain myself for how funny that was.

Anyway, have just finished it confirm that it was quite messy and distracting.

Not a fan of the transfer. Movie's great as always, though.
