haven't seen these transfers in a while, if they are super pink looking than it is true that's not likely not accurate either, people often think people look very pink but they don't in reality. But the new vimeo video for the theatrical 4k release had them looking fairly natural, not oversaturated and not pink.

I didn't say they absolutely scratch every disc ever. I said they absolutely CAN scratch discs. And they do.

I've also been buying discs for decades.

It's almost like lots of people are concerned about cardboard sleeves and bring it up in every thread. But how can that be when some swear there isn't an issue?

But I must have just imagined it.

When are people going to figure out that just because something doesn't apply to them, doesn't mean it can't apply to some people? Obviously some have issues with sleeves scratching - it's luck of the draw.

Any bits that get trapped inside the cardboard sleeve, either by you or in the factory, can indeed scratch the disc, because the tight sleeve presses directly against the disc, grinding the disc against any foreign material inside. And the factory worker doesn't give a crap how they handle them as they jam them into the sleeve as they squeeze the sleeve tightly without even thinking about it.

I just unpacked my Wonder Woman box set today and several had small scratches right out of the case, and that's a normal plastic case. Blu-rays are scratch-resistant, not scratch-proof. Tight sleeves just increase the odds of scratching.

It should be common sense really. Sliding a disc in and out of a tight sleeve obviously is not an ideal way to store them.

I just watched this, it’s flagged as being 4K. I’m not so sure though.

I imagine this has already been said, but what horrible front cover art! Why is the Professor in the background?! He’s one if the two main characters in the film! Why do they use an image of Marty’s nemesis wearing that stupid dweeb hat instead of his more recognizable football jock look?!

Yep, SEVERAL people have commented this already lol. Tbh i find it kind of funny to see all of your reactions. Not that i'm saying i love it though. But yeah, in that sense it reminds me of an oooooold bootleg dvd set i owned for a little while of Roswell. They centered Kyle, i think it was either Liz or Max that wasn't featured on the front cover and they used two pictures of Izzie

Who cares about all that when we will have what’s more important to the set: 4K Dolby Vision and Atmos!

I’m so happy I don’t care about the cover the grain on the other hand I do care about. And it looks like we’ll have plenty!

For those who bought the hoverboard Edition I assume it will be similar to this.

I was originally going to get the 4K Steelbook Trilogy from BestBuy but that Target BOGO 50% off deal was too good to not take advantage of!!

So I got the Standard 4K BTTF set and finally grabbed a Blu-Ray copy of 'Indiana Jones: The Complete Adventures'...

Total for both sets after the 50% Coupon and Red Circle earnings was $69.15!!!!
