Days of Thunder clearly only got a UHD because of Top Gun: Maverick, so that one was basically just Paramount sticking to their long-standing policy when it comes to UHDs — only choose films that can somehow tie-in to a big new theatrical release.

I wonder if Paramount are using these to gauge interest for a 4K release of whatever film, that if the umpeenth repackage of whatever classic film still sells on BD then there might be a decent 4K market there. (Days of Blunder being the obvious exception as that's got a remastered BD as part of this line
and it's gone straight to 4K as part of this 'Paramount Presents: Tom Crooze' wave of UHD discs
