Usually the same picture encode with different audio options as SC is doing the discs for LG.

That's why I usually go with the cheaper keep cases with slip cover from LG. I do NOT have to have a steelbook or CE for every SC-title, but get the same PQ/SQ. Saves me money and shelf space.

Btw, I linked to this earlier for an unrelated reason, but for anyone curious, there are six uncompressed frame-grabs available on Lionsgate's site.

Thanks! These look very promising. Rich color and most importantly a healthy amount of grain, tight looking too. Assuming these are direct disc screenshots and no additional tinkering was done, this is going to be one hell of a 4K UHD release

Anyone know how likely it is that Zavvi gets the collector’s edition back in stock? Went to pre-order an hour or so ago, and it’s no longer in stock.

Some of those are 8K shots.. they dont look any better than the 4K ones. I just compressed (losslessly) the 4K native shots.

RIP mobile users

What's with all the noise? Is that just a by product of the compression?

Those look terrible:

That's called "grain". It pops up on this film stuff from time to time.

It's (film) grain which is a byproduct of filming. This is how film looks when captured correctly.

There is no such thing as correct film grain look. It depends on how film was processed and what kind of film stock was used. It is generally more common for older films to look grainy while newer stock can actually be pretty clean when resolved correctly. Hence why there's less need for DNR with 4K.

It also looks like they used fairly high speed film stock as well, which would have more visible grain structure to it.

If nothing else, I'm happy to have found the target audience for New Line's Pan's Labyrinth Blu-ray.

No it's not a joke post. Anybody with a pair of eyes can see there's something grainy all over the picture.
Not sure what the correct term is
