i think it's logical to say they wouldn't be remastering it to release a "worse" version, so they're certainly intending it to be "better".

whether or not it actually is better will have to be judged by the final product, but my money would be on 'yes', it most likely will be if your standard is PQ. hopefully they'll also include all previous extras and maybe add some too.

I'm sure it'll be better, but that won't stop the complaints about darkness and softness and framing and so on.

What is the rationale for passing on the UHD/Blu combo? Watch the blu now and switch over to the UHD after display upgrade.

Price.


Why pay more for a release that includes a format I can't use?

You will use it next year or soon thereafter. Sell the blu then.

- I can't afford to buy a new set and I'm tired of buying the same movies every few years. And paying more money to do it.

I can't wait for a remastered BD.I highly doubt 4K will become the new standard. I've embraced all the formats with open arms but not 4K. I just came home from a shopping trip from HMV which is closing here in Canada. The store in my area closes Sunday. 50% off everything. I purchased 24 BD's for $250 and many new releases. My point is stores aren't supporting physical media anymore aside from Walmart. Even Best Buy has scaled back a lot. My friends and coworkers laugh that I still buy Bd. That said evwn if it somehow became the new standard I still wouldn't support it because I love my projector and Oppo and don't see a big enough difference to upgrade all my gear and replace 1000 movies.

right but the industry commented to 4k including 4k bluray.They will keep on pushing the format.Also, streaming is not the shoe in people think.Unless you have super speed internet, streaming 4k is difficult.Many many people don't have that kind of speed. People forget this is a business 4K movies must be doing good business or we wouldn't have 4k blu-ray.

I just pulled the trigger, since I was able to use a $10 gift certificate to pre-order this Blu-ray today for a cheaper price. Here's looking forward to a new transfer (although I'll be stuck watching the standard Blu-ray in the package until I acquire a 4K player.).

Robert Harris (Home Theater Forum) says in his review that this purchase would be worth it alone for the standard Blu-ray, which can only be purchased through this combo.

For now. There is supposed to be a standard bluray release later.

Really don't like that WB is pulling this with the delayed Blu-ray release. I hope this doesn't become a trend.

One reviewer said the day scenes on the UNFORGIVEN 4K UHD are too dark compared to the 4K blu-ray.

Also, the reviewer on here said the black levels on the GOODFELLAS 4K UHD are horrible.

I hope 4K UHD eventually crash and burns.

Yeah, I'm not sure I can get a 4k TV and the blu ray player you need to play those right now. There is no way I'm upgrading all my shit again. Buying the same stuff over and over again has to end at some point.

Which is why people SHOULDN'T go out and buy this 4K release only to just watch the new blu-ray.

I like it, push people to upgrade and move on to the new format. That's what they never had the balls to do with DVD->BD. I know many would complain, but it's better in the long run IMO.

This is insanity. Even if this UHD is flawed (which only ONE reviewer has said) the vast majority are a good improvement over normal blu. Don't let your angst over upgrading make you burn a superior format alive.
