A Few Good Men, bad colour timing?

[MacEachaidh]

Hi all,
Wondering if anyone else can match my experience on this.

I watched A Few Good Men last night, and the colour in the OZ release seems way off. Through much of the film it looked like an NTSC TV image with the colour intensity bumped up too high: skin tones have orange and khaki casts to them, and people's eyes are pink-rimmed.

I have my display calibrated fairly carefully with software for that specific purpose and a driver for this specific model. It doesn't mean it's perfect, of course, but most transfers look pretty darned good on it and colour problems are few. (No, I haven't watched the EE of Fellowship of the Ring on it yet! ) So I'm pretty sure the problems lie with the disk.

Has anyone else watched the OZ release of this title and noticed any similar issues?

^Mine looks fine. I had a few minor issues with the brightness of the picture but corrected it manually. I'm not a very technical kind of guy. I just remember putting it on and thinking:"My it's a little bright." So i fooled around with the picture settings on my TV until it looked good.
Cheers,
Carcuss.

Thanks Carcuss. But did you have to turn your settings back up again for other discs?

Perhaps the transfer is just over-saturated.

Yes mate. But i fool around with the picture settings with most movies i watch to get it to look how i want it to look.
Cheers.

I spoke with Universal Sony this morning. There is a listing for this title in their database on 4K UHD Blu-ray, the local release date is currently November 15th.

Funny. Do you do that in the theater as well?
