Titanic 4K UHD (1997)

[PonyoBellanote]

Huh, so the original Paramount logo is back, no more plasterings, neat. Now I wonder about Europe. Is it still true that they're using the Paramount disc or nah? The initial sayings about that may have been because of the use of Dolby Vision, but now we know Disney can use it themselves for the other Cameron flicks.

I'd love it if in Europe they'd use the original 1997 logo as well instead of the new 20th Century Studios but I don't have much hopes.

Does the Canadian version have the slipcover? If not, I won't have a choice to buy the us version, which will cost me $20 more

The UK version opens with the 20th Century Fox logo, so what will the UK version open with for the UHD?

Unless a miracle happens, I'm thinking they'll open with the 20th Century Studios logo.

By the way, have we forgotten that this 4K master may have been done since 2017? Since in 2017 there *was* a Dolby Cinema screening..

is Titanic 4K Remuxed?

I decided to place an order with amazon. Since I am not a huge fan of the film I will cancel it if the reviews suck if it hasn't shipped yet. If it does ship I will just keep it sealed until I get a gist of how it looks and sounds. Aliens, The Abyss and True Lies I will get even if they look like Peter Jackson made love to the T2 UHD and gave birth to them, sadly.

Unlike true 4k movies I have, this one still allows me to buy it in 4k with it in my library.

Is this the 1997 logo or…?

That is the 1997 Logo but it looks like they took away the byline, when I seen it in IMAX 3D and RealD 3D back in February it was the 2023 Paramount Logo with no Byline whatsoever. Hopefully the 97' logo has the byline to make it truly original to it's elements aside from the redone skies throughout the movie

Chances are the guy freezeframed right before the byline happened.

[Show spoiler]I’m actually really confused considering how much people seem to love it.

Edit: No really this looks absolutely terrible what is everyone smoking

On second thought, I’m far more than half-convinced.

It did not show up in my library but I searched for it like you said and it came up.

Is there a reason it doesn’t show up and apply automatically to your library?

If you want to figure out if your Digital Titanic copy is actually playing in 4K on the Apple TV app push the down button on your remote while the movie is playing to bring up the movie info. If the 4K icon is missing next to the Dolby Vision icon it means it's not playing in 4K. I redeemed an old digital copy for The Muppet Christmas Carol in SD years ago and when I play it on Apple TV the dolby vision kicks in but in the movie Info the 4K icon is missing.

Probably did pause it before the byline faded in, honestly kind of happy to see the Original 1997 Paramount Logo aside from the original Non-Anamorphic DVD and the Special Collectors Editions from 2005-2007

I am surprised that my old 3D set digital code worked for redemption with itunes.
*Cough Unlike WarnerBros. *Cough

Anyhow the 1080p stream has Atmos and the color grading seems similar to the old grading.

Could possibly be that the 1080p stream is the old transfer with an Atmos track?...

May be different grading.

MMmm, seems different, it is subtle. A hint of more green at around the 18:53 mark I am comparing to.

Going to check if there is still clipping in the surround channels when the rotors of engine rev up later on.

Thanks for that info! I started watching this and was about to report back how crappy it looked. It’s not playing in freaking 4K! Exactly as you had with The Muppets!

[KMFDMvsEnya]

All these exterior shots appear less greenish/cyan on even the 1080p itunes stream.

King of the World sequence looks pretty good as well. Not wholly "natural" but less like the old blu-ray transfer.

For any of those having issues playing the title correctly (4K/Atmos) within the Apple TV app... head to the 4k/HDR section within the Apple TV app, scroll to/find Titanic and hit play. It'll then take you to the Titanic launch page hit "play" again and voila (the special features also play correctly too). The film plays perfectly in 4K and Atmos every time using these steps for those who have such setups.


Played the first 20 mins of the film and honestly looks AMAZING (though can't wait to see it again when I get my disc) for being streamed...

[Dark_Vader]

Just sampled the first 15 minutes of this on Apple TV. It looks fvcking gorgeous.

Maybe now we'll get less whining about JC films on 4K.
