Ladder 49 was better than Backdraft. Ladder 49 was more realistic. Despite of all the good reviews for Backdraft, it was too Hollywood and flawed.

Love this one. Ron Howard's Best flick IMO, decent Hans Zimmer Score too.

It was the 1st HD title I ever owned on HD-DVD, still have it somewhere.

I agree with you, except that I think it's a great Hans Zimmer score.

Oh yeah. Love listening to the score, and bookending it with the Bruce Hornsby songs (as the CD does) works so well. The Show goes On is one of my favouritest songs ever.

90s Zimmer is the only good Zimmer

I don't care, Backdraft is one of my favourite movies, Ladder 49 is not.

Ladder 49 doesn't have to be one of your favorites. All I'm saying is that, it's a better movie.

Art and Entertainment is subjective. Sorry?

Objective - a factory Diablo is faster than a factory Corolla on motorways in dry conditions.

Subjective - a factory Diablo is better than a factory Corolla.

I'm in. But this should be in the international forum, where we already have a thread.

I'm still not sure why some international announcements are allowed to stay in here, but some are not. Most recently, Indiana Jones..

If those men want to be intimate with their wife or girlfriend, they do in the privacy of their home, NOT on top of a firetruck.

Not into having people watch, huh?

Amazing news. More Kurt Russel on 4K.

nick4Knight · 01-31-2019, 05:59 PM

Backdraft is a solid flick for sure. Always liked it. Fire and explosions always look better in UHD and w/ HDR.

Breakdown? heh I have a fondness for the movie but it's not exactly made for 4K UHD...

I'd rather U-571 of a Jonathan Mostow picture, as well. Think Universal might wait until 2020 for that one

I would love all of those. My top KR picks that won’t get released are Tombstone, Big Trouble, and Executive Decision.
