This thread is dedicated specifically for film movies that has a 4K and above transfer.
Elysium is shot digitally.

We certainly could use a thread title change. This one for film, and another for digitally shot movies.

I'm not the list keeper here. But I'm definitely in favour of a change.
And is there a Digital 4K Blu-ray list here? I don't have a thread subscribed to it. Maybe someone here knows.

I don't believe so But you're more then welcome to create one and if one does exist which I believe doesn't I will merge.. Have the OP PM me with whatever new title you guys want just in case I forget to check this thread later..

PM waiting for you

... and while new lists are being considered, might I suggest a list of the actual 4K/UHD movies that are currently available to consumers? For now it wouldn't be much more than whatever's on that Sony FMP-X1 server, but since many people don't have that server -- and since the list of 4K/UHD titles is certain to grow, perhaps a running list would be informative...

This is a Blu-ray forum. Perhaps your idea is more suited in the future technologies section. There are a few threads of which you speak of in there.

Rebel Without a Cause, which has already been added, was digitally restored at 4K from a 8K scan.

Shouldn't Spider-Man 3 be on the list?

It was mentioned a few pages back that it was completed in 2K, despite using 4K as a digital intermediate.

So, unfortunately, no. Spider-Man 3 should not be on the list.

[TDSOTM]

Forgot that we discussed that one a while ago. There's a couple of questions I have.

So the VFX for Spider-Man 2 were done in 4K? Doesn't that sound kinda unrealistic? We're talking about a 2004 film, right?

No offense, I think you're confusing yourself here.

You were asking about Spider-Man 3 having a 4K transfer on Blu-ray, right? The answer, again is no. The film was completed in 2K. And it's verified by Bill Pope, Spider-Man 3's Director of Photography.

Spider-Man 3 was a 2007 film, not 2004. At the time, Sony was already developing 4K projection in cinemas. And Spider-Man 3 eventually did have 4K projection in cinemas.

The visual effects in Spider-Man 3, according to the article, were rendered in 2K. The film was scanned in 4K, used as a digital intermediate for all post production purposes and finally a 2K print. Unless another article refutes these details, this should be the correct technical details for Spider-Man 3.

Hope that helps.

[TDSOTM]

Yes, but didn't the exact same process happen for Spider-Man 2?

"2004: Spider-Man 2 – The first digital intermediate on a new Hollywood film to be done entirely at 4K resolution. Although scanning, recording, and color-correction was done at 4K by EFILM, most of the visual effects were created at 2K and were upscaled to 4K."

Why is Spider-Man 2 on the list but not Spider-Man 3? Both have non-CGI shots in 4K and CGI shots in 2K.

By the way, Captain Phillips should be added to the list. 4K DI and mostly shot on 35mm.

So some was shot digitally?
