But doing a grade as part of a suite of deliverables still doesn't = guaranteed UHD Blu-ray release. Disney painstakingly remastered 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea in 4K a good seven years ago now, but have we even got it on plain ol' BD yet? Have we bollocks.

People saw things like that pdf and put two and two together, fair enough, but Disney have other plans and they're taking UHD Blu one new movie at a time. Them getting Warners to author the UHD of Prestige speaks for itself.

Kris Deering · 01-25-2018, 08:54 PM

I'd been told by multiple people that met with Disney that they had titles done and ready for release on UHD Blu that haven't been. Disney may be weighing catalog releases based on sales of new releases though. So maybe when they see the numbers they'd like from day and date 4K releases they'll open up on catalog titles. Or maybe they're more interested in streaming at this point.

Geoff D · 01-25-2018, 09:07 PM

Personally I think it's the latter, streaming is their jam now. Not saying that we won't EVER get that stuff on disc but I reckon it's gon' be a while.

TheSweetieMan · 01-25-2018, 09:20 PM

But streaming seriously sucks.

Early Man (2018) 4K DCP.

I covered this topic back in 2014….

Since then, a good description has been posted online…https://thedcpmaster.com/problem-pla...-2k-projector/

Geoff D · 02-05-2018, 06:24 PM

Wow, I didn't realise that the downscaling would operate in such linear terms, that by throwing away 75% of the resolution of the DCP you're also throwing away 75% of the bitrate. That's kinda baking my gourd a little.

TheSweetieMan · 02-08-2018, 04:17 AM

I know IMDb isn’t reliable, but it currently lists the new ‘Avengers’ film as having a 4K finish.

Just posting in case anyone wants to look into that.

Pieter V · 02-08-2018, 01:35 PM

The Florida Project (2017) 4K DCP.

IMDB have jumped that gun so many times it doesn't mean anything at this stage.

BUUUUUT someone who apparently worked on Dr Strange's VFX said on here that the post pipeline for the next Avengers movies would indeed be 4K, so....

Dubstar · 02-08-2018, 03:44 PM

wasn't 'Infinity Wars' shot entirely in IMAX 'digital' or was that plan jettisoned? which would mean 4K would be a given.

It was. The IMAX trailer even includes the "filmed with IMAX cameras" tag

Yes, it is using the Imax version of the Alexa 65 as its main camera (unknown if it shot all or most). But that does not necessitate a 4k finish. Guardians 2 was shot at 8k with Red, and Thor 3 was shot at 6.5k with the regular Alexa 65. So 4k is not a given, especially with the large majority of shots using vfx. Hopefully that vfx insider that came and went so quickly is correct in that Infinity War will be Marvel's first 4k finish.
