Nice. And I'll be buying this (again). Still I just lost some respect for Arrow.

tama · 10-22-2020, 05:42 PM

I'm buying it again.

ingmog · 10-22-2020, 05:47 PM

Wish there was a non-steelbook 4K, but can't pass this up.

professorwho · 10-22-2020, 05:57 PM

Am I really gonna buy Oldboy from Arrow for a second time (and 3rd time overall)?

Yes, yes I am.

What's wrong with the German 4k

I'm sure Arrow will release the standard on their own site soon after

Poor compression.

Scottishguy · 10-22-2020, 09:06 PM

And not long after the boxset. Because Arrow knows they can get away with it lol

Really taking the piss but I’ll still probably get it because it’s Oldboy in 4K. Robocop next? The Steelbook is one of my favourite releases ever.

Surge92 · 10-22-2020, 07:12 PM

I'm getting it, too.

Eschenpod · 10-22-2020, 07:13 PM

Me too.

BluProofie · 10-22-2020, 09:15 PM

PERFECT for me since I didn’t get the Region B locked standard blu and heard the other UHD was bad.

lgans316 · 10-22-2020, 09:33 PM

This is 4K Dolby Vision on iTunes 4K from Arrow. It looks odd in places. The HDR grading requires some correction. Some speckles visible in couple of scenes. Otherwise this is a good looking presentation.

Pitch Black had print damage.

I see. Overall this is a good looking presentation but the quality can vary quite frequently.

Without out knowing all the technical specifications behind the production. I can't say whats inherent to the source, and what's wrong/not wrong with the UHD presentation.

Though I'm sure a cat will show up soon enough to fill us in.
