Your snippy attitude is misdirected. No one enjoys dnr, but Second Sight didn't choose to heavily dnr the release. The director did. DNR is not a screw-up, it is an overused tool implemented by a decisionmaker's choice. You continue to spread rampant falsehoods. The director has final say on the look of his film with each release, and he did just that. Same with what Oliver Stone did with Platoon 4k, what Lucas did with American Graffiti 4k, and along the lines of what Cameron is doing with his most recent rash of Ai-butchered 4k releases. If you don't like it, blame the director or the dop, not the label that is bound by the director's wishes/final say on the matter. I get your disappointment, and share it. But why is the concept so difficult to grasp?

It'll be hilarious if Criterion is not only a day late and a dollar short again, on yet another 4k release, and rehashes the same master (as is most likely) but only with a lesser encode than the SS release. Again.
