Default Which of your Blu-ray titles would you want to upgrade to 4K UHD?

I can't imagine wanting to upgrade much except for maybe "Lawrence of Arabia" "2001: A Space Odyssey" and "The Dark Knight."

Well, the first ones I would buy again are the ones who could use an upgrade to begin with:

Predator
The Thing
Terminator 2
Reservoir Dogs
A Clockwork Orange
The Big Lebowski

If there is a noticeable upgrade in visual quality and or Dolby Atmos on the UHD version, and the price is right, I'd want to upgrade all of mine.

only one's in my Blu collection I would consider upgrading to 4K would be Alfred Hitchcock movies and the original Halloween.

But I really don't see myself upgrading to 4K for years.

Anything 65mm or digital with a 4k finish. For 35mm and 2k finishes I would have to really love the movie and probably wait for a sale.

1. The Dark Knight Trilogy
2. Dawn of the Dead (1978)
3. Night of the Living Dead (1968)
4. Twilight Zone Complete Series
5. Batman The Animated Series
6. Batman (1989)
7. Basic Instinct
8. Universal Monsters Collection
9. The Third Man
10. Citizen Kane
11. Sorcerer
12. Stanley Kubrick Collection
13. James Bond Collection
14. True Detective Season One
15. Watchmen

I'd say about half (if not more) of that list has almost no chanc of getting released. I'll try to focus on purchasing 4KBD's for brand new releases, BVS being the first. What sucks is having to also buy the 3D version and whichever retailer exclusive that features bonus material which I'm a sucker for regarding that particular film. Suicide Squad will be the same. The only other catalog 4KBD in the pipeline that's been announced that I want is Man of Steel.

Anything that is a noticeable upgrade in quality.

There were lots of bad blu-rays, so if any of those get 4K remasters and UHD disc, I would probably prefer the UHD disc just because it's the best possible option.

As far as blu-rays that were already "good" or even "great", I guess it's wait and see. Certainly for uber classics or big format films like 2001 or Lawrence of Arabia I will probably want the best possible quality - so will lean to upgrading without hesitation (well, with hesitation since I'm a deal shopper... but once the price drops I will upgrade). If it is a lesser classic, then I guess it depends on how much better the UHD disc is.

I have upgraded only four so far: Goodfellas & Unforgiven (because they also included the remastered blu-rays, so those were future-proofing purchases), Bridge on the River Kwai (mainly because it was cheap), and most recently the Predator trilogy.

I plan on getting the upcoming releases of 2001 and Big Lebowski. Any future upgrades will be dependent on the visual quality of the film and how much I love the film, so there are no automatic upgrades except for maybe the Indiana Jones and Bond movies.

If it's worth watching, it's worth watching in the highest possible resolution. So the answer, of course, is everything.
