It's pretty funny because everyone is buying the whole set. Pick and choose what you like, but you'll have them all.

Nah, I usually import my UHDs and BDs from USA but in this case I will buy the German single release of the original film.
I don't like 2 and 3 enough to own them and I hated World so I am glad that I can buy the first film separate without having to wait a long time to enjoy it on UHD.

Wait? Wha? That's kinda a big deal, no?! First sign of individuals? WHEW! Maybe we won't have to wait.

Thanks for the link.

What is this ?

"Video
Codec: TBA
Resolution: 4K (2160p)
HDR: HDR10
Aspect ratio: 1.85:1
Original aspect ratio: 2.00:1

"

Did Universal decide to open the mattes from 2.00:1 to 1.85:1 (since most of the film was shot on 4 perf 35mm) or is this a mistype? Could Universal and/or Colin Trevorrow have wanted to retroactively match the aspect ratio of the JP trilogy?
I haven't yet seen Blu-ray.com make this kind of a mistake, yet.
Anyone has any idea?

Blame user "admiral_akbar" he submitted that fake info. He's also wrong at the audio details.

^ Oh! Ok. It'd have been cool nonetheless, to have all the films shot on a base 1.85:1 ratio. The IMAX versions could've been taller. But anyway, moving on.

It seems so. Except Jurassic World.
Is only Zavvi getting remasters?

Anywhere that sells UHDs will get the same Trilogy set and individual release of Jurassic World, currently available from Zavvi, Zoom, Amazon and I am sure HMV will follow.

What I meant to ask was, is the US getting them, or only the UK?

I wonder where the official announcement for this is? Would love to know some official details on the type of 4K transfer we're getting for these movies.

Some other sources are mentioning that the first three are using "recent" 4k scans from the OCN's. Of course, they didn't bother re-rendering the older digital effects files and re-comp those shots, so all effects shots will probably look softer due to the computer print-out-to-film technologies of the time. Those effects scenes were spliced back into the master elements.

DTS: X remixes, but unfortunately not Dolby Atmos.

Optical effect, digital effect, doesn't matter: if it had to be output back to film then some degree of degradation occurs somewhere. Par for the course.

Hopefully, it won't be very noticeable to untrained eyes like mine.

I was extremely impressed with how the VFX held up in, say, Starship Troopers (which got a crisp new 4K transfer from Sony), in terms of both the actual VFX work itself and the subsequent film-out of it.

For what it's worth, although filmed-out digital VFX will have some sort of quality drop it's still minor compared to what optical VFX would usually have, for in that same Starship Troopers I believe all the laser blasts in the 'laser tag' scenes are done optically and it shows, the image becomes noticeably softer and the blacks lose a lot of shadow detail in those scenes.
