According to this, the DV version is 4K.

Quote:
The DCP (digital cinema package, the file that’s delivered to the theater) was 4K, whereas I learned that the Dolby Vision DCPs for The Scorch Trials and Everest were both 2K, which I didn’t know when I saw them in the same theater.

Personally I wouldn't go on what's delivered to cinemas, obviously what they get give will be what works best across all their screens.

Oh dear, HDR tries to digitally replicate the real life changes in lighting.

Should stick to VHS then if we don't want things more realistic.


Black should be black. Sunlight should be bright without washing out everything. HDR is how to do that.

Life does not like like se7en or traffic, your over simplistic statements are silly.
And if Dolby were not involved I would imagine you would like it less.
Are you turning into a parody account?

If you ever want to know if a film is 2k or 4k, just go to the imdb of the film and click technical specs. I've never seen it listed wrong.

i feel like the proverbial mosquito in a nudist colony…..don’t know where/who to sting first.
imdb has a history of being reliable but far from infallible,

for starters, e.g. - https://forum.blu-ray.com/showthread...te#post6879042

and there’ve been multiple instances documented in which the imdb tech specs were either temporarily incomplete…. or remain incomplete even to this day, e.g.
