Did you get your copy from target? It's where I picked up mine and it was stacked the same way you describe stacked on the right hand side over the regular Blu-ray disc during playback on my oppo 203 I experienced skipping

i got mine at target and it was not like that so go figure

the 4k was by itself on the right, and the blu-ray/special feature discs were stacked on left

It's no fun for us the customers having discs stacked because they do indeed get scratches during transportation.

I would recommend all studios to not stack discs any more. You want to put three or four or more discs inside one case, give them their own compartment, ...no more stacking please...respect your products, value your customers, provide them with intact goods for the money they pay you for. This is good business practice, so there is no reason to deviate from that. Anything else is cheap greed and brings only hatred instead of happiness.

Are you reading this Warner, Sony, Universal, Fox, Paramount, Lionsgate, E1, Disney, ... ?

I just bought at BB the 4K steel book of John Wick 1&2 , 4 disks each in their own tray Im giving away the BD copies and when JW 3 & 4 come out I will put them in. The box only says "John Wick" front and spine , no letters on the back. I hate stacked disks but this is so cool

You like stacked discs, no? Somebody has to tell the studios so that they can give the right directives to the manufacturers of them 4K black Blu-ray cases...and the blue ones too.

If we don't it's going to keep on and no love will ever reach us the customers who spend our money to have good products. It is inacceptable to stack discs.

Look, they do that too with 3D Blu-ray packages, multiple discs from regular Blu-ray packages, and now with 4K UHD Blu-ray packages. The discs on top they spin more or less on the top label disc below, and they get scratches. It is irritating big time, it's my money, I paid up to fifty bucks for some of them...many on average $40 ... on sale $30 ... so we don't want no stacking discs, zero.

You'd be surprised who's reading Blu-ray forums. ...People who work in the entertainment business, the distribution departments, Hollywood studio workers from all stages and advertisement.

I don't want anymore stacked discs like 4K Dunkirk.

With my Dunkirk 4K I removed the BD which will never get played so now no disk is stacked and I give the BD to a friend who has no 4K.

Based on feedback I've seen throughout the Internet, with Dunkirk, either you like it, or you don't, with no room in-between.

I liked it a lot. Very unique approach with the asynchronous and intersecting time lines.

Just finished it. It looked lovely and I was entertained, but it's the only Nolan movie I've seen that I don't really see myself wanting to ever watch again.

They run to around 1 hour 50 minutes, and are split into four sections - Creation, Land, Air, Sea, Conclusion - each of which has its own group of small featurette sections. They can be played as one long ‘movie’, or accessed by section.

Physical media is dead. Enjoy it while it lasts.

I have never bought that much physical media in the last year...so many UHD releases. I have to admit that I first looked at streaming, but the horrible quality and the fact you need multiple subscriptions these days, convinced me physical media is now the way to go.

On topic...just received the UK version (together with The Prestige and Interstellar) and are going to watch it this weekend!

I never went through the DVD to Bluray transition, I literally went from DVD to UHD

[Ernest Rister]

Guys, I still have VHS tapes and a whole lot of laserdiscs and a *huge* DVD and Blu collection. Obviously, physical media is the best thing going, but the canary is sneezing in the coal mine.

That explains a lot

The English DTS track is the only one that seems to mute out. I'm using the Sony UBP X800, on a Sony x900 tv. Using the tv's speakers.

As an example, does yours clip at 1:03:39? On my disk it's the fourth or fifth mute.

I have the same problem with a UBP x800 and a XBR850C. It's only the english track, the french and german track are fine.

It explains how I don't find myself double dipping often, since most movies now found in UHD were never bought in bluray earlier

I have a feeling that this was a lot more gripping in a theater. Still a good ride though!

Love that Warner is pushing the 4K release of this hard in the marketing. No wonder every store I go to has at least ten copies on the floor.

The only thing that made sense in your post. Thank you.

It's nice to know (and awfully baffling) that people are experiencing the same issue I complained about here a few days ago regarding stacked discs. I've had attempted to make people in the forums aware of this issue - TO SAVE us all money and issues, and for my efforts (which weren't spammed at all!) I received a 2/3 day ban from this site. If the mods here aren't concerned for the folks that visit this site, then I will take myself and the folks I've recommended to this site to go elsewhere. I thought this was a place we could go to voice our opinions and make others aware of concerns, but I guess there's always going to be someone who 'decides' when you're being insincere or trolling. Furthermore, the message I got from the moderator, basically told me to go elsewhere. Sad because I really liked this site. Oh well.
