What's your Friend-Demo HDR/Dolby Movie? - Blu-ray Forum

natemac00 · 09-11-2018, 04:30 PM

I just bought my first home and as a home-warming gift to myself, I bought my first 4K/HDR/Dolby Television... Actually, I bought two of them; the 2017 TLC 55" P6 and the 2018 TCL 65" 6-Series. These are my newest TV since my 42" Sony Bravo from 2010.

I was wondering what your "Friends are over and never seen HDR before" go-to movie is?
What movie is gonna make regular HDTV go'ers, say "I need one of those"?

Too many to mention.

John Wick 2, Billy Lynn, Transformers: The Last Knight, The Great Wall, Hacksaw Ridge, Star Trek: Into Darkness, Blue Planet II, Lucy, The Revenant, A Few Good Men, Leon, all immediately come to mind.

John Wick 2 Mirror Shootout scene near the end of the movie x1000

John Wick 2. The contrast, color, HDR, etc.

Maybe Blade Runner but I'd have to skip to a more impressive looking scene if they're not a superfan. JW2 is impressive from the start.

blue planet 2, earth 2, john wick 2, Pacific rim, zero dark thirty, interstellar, sicario

John Wick 2 sounds amazing!

ROSS.T.G. · 09-11-2018, 05:32 PM

T2, Expendables 3, 3:10 to Yuma

lilboyblu · 09-11-2018, 06:07 PM

Another vote for John Wick 2! The opening cityscape/chase and the mirrors are both phenomenal.

imsounoriginal · 09-11-2018, 06:09 PM

Planet Earth II, specifically Islands or Jungles episode.

Nice try, not enough DNR and grey blacks to make the cut

It's definitely a popular topic.

Planet Earth 2 and 90's mummy wows everybody. Even my wife who generally is happy with DVD said the colors were amazing.

brainofj72 · 09-11-2018, 07:13 PM

Batman v Superman. The Doomsday fight. IMO the HDR in that sequence still hasn’t been bested by any other disc.

StingingVelvet · 09-11-2018, 08:19 PM

I have precisely zero friends who give a shit about movies. Makes me sad panda.

About picture quality or about movies in general? I would find the latter very hard to believe.
