The difference is, this guy gets paid for his. And while I don’t condone him apparently celebrating or justifying technical ignorance, there is always a market for all types of reviews, from highly technical to pundit type jobbies. And people with a high opinion of themselves (such as say, a person that talks about themselves in the third person, as a random example) often find their ego challenged when a person they perceive as being less skilled with a subject as them is getting more recognition for it.

Just stating a simple observation, not poking any bears. I’m not sure if being the kind of person that might go on ego fuelled rants on a vaguely obscure forum warrants the bear metaphor either

Well your observation just sucks then cause all three of my mums brothers are millionaires in cash and investment terms. Actually read my posts on the subject.

If you actually can be bothered to.

So you aren’t jealous this guy is getting paid and getting recognition to make reviews because… your relatives are rich?

Makes sense lol. Just saying, it would be nice if people could be more self aware and I didn’t have to wade through endless posts of crusty boomers fist waving about YouTube reviewers in almost every 4K thread. Gets old.

This really smacks of trying to engineer a backlash against 2K DI, in the hope of creating new 4K DI. Oh and throw in 66GB Blus cause why not.

Hahahaha, quote of the year

I love the reactions by such people. When in a Chip and Dale forum people were raving over the "HD" versions of the Rescue Rangers series in the 80s-90s that are now on Disney+ (cropping not withstanding but before when they were on various digital platforms in 4:3 before D+ existed) they pretended to know what they were talking about but when I told them I had studied film restoration and film to video transfers for a good 8 years at that point and proved it was the same DVD era transfer of the show from the original BetaSP finished episode now slathered in DNR I was ignored by some, told by others that "well I don't know this tech stuff and it looks good to me and I am better than you because you're elitist for knowing the tech stuff that I pretended to know that you just disproved" I gave up. It's like a badge of honor these days to have no knowledge in a subject and someone who does is at best an equal and at worst somehow less qualified than the unqualified person.

I'm a mechanical engineer and am not a stupid wolf but I wouldn't dare to insult my mechanic or head chef at a restaurant by claiming my limited knowledge is somehow superior to their lifetime of dedication to their craft. It doesn't mean that I can't have my own opinion but at the very least such people are owed a degree of deference and respect and if their opinion conflicts with mine, I'm going to give them the benefit of the doubt until I can learn more. How very elitest of me to give that to them.

Imagine if Universal had sent review copies to people who actually know how to review, instead of allocating them to people who can't.

What a s*it show. But hey if we are getting into a situation where they all are being gobbled up by the feckless. They and others might do a proper review of who's getting their products. And cut them off if they aren't up to snuff.

I get the feeling this forum thread will self-destruct if this release actually turns out to be bad.
