It makes the new AU disc look like a DVD.

The Imprint disc also have lossy audio. Though, the Stereo mixdown is uncompressed. Strange.

Germany is usually my go-to territory for releases devoid of DNR scrubbing. This is a rare outlier.

The Koch looks a bit sharpened and blocky-ier in dark areas compared to the remastered Arrow.

Chroma is also filtered and incorrectly positioned (also seen this occur in other Koch release screenshots on caps-a-holic, such as The Burbs).

Yeah you are correct with good companies like Koch and Turbine when I think about it. Just stained by some few really horrible discs that burned my retinas like those from Digidream, 84 Eightyfour Entertainment or some NSM Records like Prophets Game 4K

Default Forbidden Planet (1956)

Forbidden Planet
US - N/A
UK - VC-1 20816 kbps, DTS-HD MA 5.1 3298 kbps 24-bit, English subs (Region free)

According to BRDC, there is no US release, so I think this qualifies for the list.
Source of info: BDInfo scan, I own the UK disc.
According to relevant pages of BRDC, the German, French and Spanish disc should be the same as the UK disc.

Again, sorry.

EDIT: OK, I see now, there is a blu-ray bundle on that page. I didn't checked whether there is a bundle. Lesson learned, always check first whether there is a bundle.
