That steelbook looks incredible. I'm definitely pre-ordering. It's nice that they displayed the love for Shrek displayed by the Donkey.

Hey y'all.

How does the movie remastered in 4K look like? Was the animation somewhat improved?

It's probably going to be upscaled from 2K with HDR applied. I doubt the animation will be improved but personally I never thought Shrek's animation was good. Even for its time I thought Monsters Inc looked more impressive, or even Toy Story 2 for that matter.

It's hard to tell without knowing the process and source file by which they upscaled the image to 4k and applied an HDR grade.

Distributors sometimes share comparisons of old and new masters for its fans to get hyped.

Have to say, the list of extras included is very generous.

Well this is pretty lame, Target is having a B2G1 and the standard 4K version of Shrek is part of it, but not the steelbook, which costs $3 less.

Shrek is up on Amazon.ca

Shrek's getting a 20th anniversary edition...

Well, I'm officially old now.

I feel you. Sometimes it doesn’t feel that long ago, but god that was middle school for me.

I watched Shrek last night for the first time in ages, debating whether I should upgrade. I'll pass. The animation is a little crude in spots, which is to be expected for 20 years ago, but it lacked some of the timelessness of the best animated features. Using pop songs doesn't help. It's still enjoyable, though -- and I'll be curious what people think of UHD.

I agree.

Tell any kids you may have to get a few kids in the oven then so you can share this with the grandkids.

Is Shrek 2 going to be on 4k anytime soon?

Let's hope.

I asked a few questions of him in that twitter thread and took a look at the film to see what he was talking about.

The only artefacting I've seen was on very fine details like the gold on Fiona's dress after they all get out in the daylight from the castle. It was in areas like that mostly, nothing horrendously visible as some might fear.

Though I saw some pretty gnarly colour banding during the slow motion scenes of them all running away from Dragon, this is mostly likely due to the compression used as well.

I'm definitely going to be getting this out of curiosity more than anything at seeing what they've been able to do with it. I really hope they release the second film too, that one was always a favourite of mine.

Making people understand that is even harder than laying out HDR.
