Exclamation List of 4K film transfers on Blu-ray shot on film (non-digitally shot)

I thought it would be nice to put together a list of known 4K transfers scans or higher 6K & 8K.
By that i mean the film elements were scanned in 4K or higher.
Often these elements are then worked on in 2K.
This will be a film only thread.
Digitally shot films are here.
(Please add)

#

Note on 3-D Rarities (4K scan on "New Dimensions" and "I'll sell my shirt")



A








Apollo 13 (6K scan), Argo (Hybrid, mostly film but also shot digitally)

Army of Darkness (International Cut only)




B


Baraka (8K scan + 96kHz, 24-bit audio)

Battleship Potemkin (BFI edition, per booklet, "a 4K restoration undertaken by Transit Film, Germany with Omnimago Laboratories", i asume Kino's is the same)



Ben Hur (8K scan)
















C

Captain Phillips (Hybrid, mostly film but also shot digitally)

Note on The Fisher King, it was scanned in 4K but finished in 2K



Note on Force 10 from Navarone, i find it very hard to believe that the US disc derives from a 4K scan.
I put the German disc there since the European release are much more recent than the US.
It would be nice if anyone who owns any of the European releases would comment on them.

Note on Fright Night, European and Japanese versions have a lossy DD audio but not the UK version


Note on Fury (All editions except the German, Spanish and Polish ones suffer a black crush)

G

Ok
But it derives from 4K so we should keep it there right ?

Perhaps best to have a separate category for digitally shot films?

From the review here:
Quote:
The following text appears inside the booklet provided with this Blu-ray disc:

"Approved by director Roman Polanski, this new digital transfer was created in 4K resolution on a Scanity film scanner from the original 35mm camera negative. Thousands of instances of dirt, debris, splices, warps, and jitter were manually removed using MTI's DRS and Pixel Farm's PFClean, while Image Systems' Phoenix was used for small dirt, flicker, and scratches.
