There is more room for weak CG because the artist is trying to recreate the world of a comic book, not the real world like in a drama movie

No. That's not how this works. At all.

Again, to reiterate, regardless of what type of visual style a film is aiming to create, it's no excuse to have certain CG shots sprinkled throughout, that look like they've never made it pass the previs stage.

There is absolutely no excuse at all for some of the CG renderings to look as bad as they do in Ragnarok. Thankfully, it's mainly just that sequence that I referenced.

The disc is a looker alright. The best UHD transfer of any of the MCU films to date in my opinion.

Geoff D · 05-12-2018, 07:41 PM

Well, this is only the fourth MCU release on UHD disc thus far.

I believe this only applies to the 1080p bluray's DTS audio. I just listened to the Dolby Truehd (dont have Atmos receiver) on the 4K disc and its definitely louder and has much more LFE. The reviewer https://www.blu-ray.com/movies/Black...198323/#Review indicated there is no difference, but boy oh boy, there is. All in all, their 4K counterparts get the better audio.

Did anyone get a shipment notification that lives in the NY area?

Mine says pre-ordered but when I look at the order detils, it states preparing. I can't cancel or change it. Hopefully this means they have one allocated for me?

I am just a little guy shy because my Private Ryan 4K steelbook went to the status before preparing to the infamous trying to fulfill and will cancel by June 7th if it can't ship. Luckily I found one at a local store and picked it up yesterday. I then canceled the online order, that button was not grayed out.

Fifth.

My Steelbook arrived today. Which is nice.

I’m not counting them.

Geoff D · 05-13-2018, 10:55 AM

Yep, I forgot about Incredible Hulk. Still not exactly the time to start making proclamations about this being the best looking MCU 4K to date though. It's technically true but we've hardly got the widest sample to be working with

BluRayHiDef · 05-13-2018, 11:14 AM

My copy has yet to be shipped out by Best Buy, which is unusual. Usually, my pre-orders from Best Buy are shipped out by the Friday preceeding their release dates.

jh901 · 05-13-2018, 12:57 PM

Any word on Walmart in-store price for this?

Any chance the BBY/Target price bested?

I have it in my Walmart.com cart, so far they're sticking to $29.96.

I've been getting my 4k UHD new releases at Walmart as it's close by and they've been $24.96 on release day. I'd like to order from Amazon as I have a ton of Amex MR points I can redeem, but of course Amazon doesn't have the UHD BD for pre-order, and it'd take a week to get to me anyway as I don't have Prime. So hoping Wallyworld comes down in price . .

EDIT: Went with the Best Buy Steelbook pre-order, I got my Amex MR points to work on bestbuy.com, basically getting it for free. And Amazon had a deal of $30 off order of $60 or more when redeeming Amex MR points, so I got Guardians of Galaxy2, Planet Earth II & Source Code for $10.xx + Amex MR points. Did good on my bargain hunting today!

Colours and INKY blacks ( and I even have my brightness cranked for HDR so as not to clip whites). Very impressed with the PQ but the movie was a bit meh.

Has anyone else pre-ordered the standard 4K version from Target.com? I've had two pre-orders cancel on me after saying that it was backordered. I've never had a Target pre-order automatically cancel on me, despite being backordered many times in the past. Is this movie THAT much in demand that Target.com has to cancel pre-orders?!?!

I learned my lesson to never order from Target after orders cancelled without warning long ago.

In-store price on release week has been $28 for the 4K Disney releases, I wouldn't count on anything less. (There was a comment above about $25 but I've never seen that.)
