It won't be long before he's chasing that extra green.

It was actually FOMO. I don’t even know how old the video was but I just stumbled across it. I take it this had already been discussed here?

Is he that dude that looks just like Vincent except he wears gloves all the time (hee-hee, chamone)? Never paid much attention to him before and now I'm doubly glad I never wasted my time, but I guess he's taking a leaf from the regular YT playbook: clickbait is the name of the game these days.

And no, he's not correct re: Lego Batman, there are several analyses on this here very forum that show how the colour gamuts perform on any given disc. It's true that live action material doesn't always use every last pixel of P3, never mind 2020, but that's the nature of the beast: not everything you shoot will actually fall into WCG, nor will they always want to goose it into WCG, whereas with modern CG animated material you're literally in control of every pixel you're creating so you can pump the colour as much as you want. Spider-Verse is another one with insane colour.

Though FWIW, Vincent showed that The Matrix has greens that fall well into BT.2020 space so you might want to check that one avscommentator

That's the chap, when I first saw him I thought he'd bumped off Vincent and we'd caught him cleaning up.

Never heard of fomo. Sounds like audio dampening insulation. Googling now... "fōmō | noun a state of mental or emotional strain caused by the fear of missing out." Don't think that's the right fo. Went to YT and looked up the fo there. Lol, it's Vincents evil twin.

Yep, it’s truly uncanny.

I watched him one time to gauge his mettle.
And he went off the rails pretty quickly. I never looked back...

Not at all, where would you get such an idea from? Who's been saying that?
EDIT: ok, right I've seen the following posts now. Mr Fomo. He's wrong of course. As Geoff says, there are good reasons why "colours outside of P3" don't happen much. (As opposed to "mastered with WCG" - they are all mastered with WCG, the container, as defined by the standard)

As well as the threads here, there is this playlist on YouTube with a somewhat more robust scientific analysis than a glove-wearing magician:
https://www.youtube.com/playlist?lis...RF8g0IOtbUcTDv

The titles analysed are Star Wars 9, John Wick 3, The Amazing Spiderman 2, Planet Earth 2, The Matrix.

You will see from those videos how relatively rare "colours outside of P3" are seen.

The wife says I'm already old and in the way.

Speaking of Australia. The Aussie tourist commission put together this little vid to help bring folks to the land down under. Wasn't shot on anything fancy like a Sony Venice or T-Cam color workflow tho.

SpaceX is going to fire Tom Cruise into space

Actor Tom Cruise and director Doug Liman are currently scheduled to depart Earth aboard a SpaceX Crew Dragon spacecraft in October 2021.
The mission is reportedly related to an upcoming film, though details are rather scarce.

Amazon is adding HDR to its HD Fire devices. Are there 1080p displays with HDR out there? Why would they do that?

I apologize if this is kind of off-topic and comes across as a dumb question, but I'm finally switching over to 4K. My 4K UHD Vizio TV with HDR10 and Dolby Vision is supposed to arrive tomorrow. My question is, if I had a movie on blu-ray that had a very organic, filmic look on my old 1080p HDTV, it will retain that same organic, filmic look when upscaled to 4K on my new set, right? The reason I ask is because movies and series on my parents' 80" 4K UHD Samsung TV have a too-glossy, smooth, almost DNR-ed look to them, which I don't like at all. I think most of that stuff was shot on digital video, so I guess it's supposed to look like that, but I obviously don't want my movies shot on film looking smooth or glossy. I want every bit of their inherent organic, grainy look.
