#Top10 - บันเทิง
Fantasia not having a 4K release is actually insane. That is such a perfect candidate for the format and it still hasn’t been done.
Disney's been wanting to do a restoration for a long time, but they've been having problems securing a good enough print, and trying to secure a high enough quality transfer of its legendary theatrical sound mix. There is a 4K of Cinderella coming out soonish though, which should be interesting to see ESPECIALLY considering the transfer isn't on Dis+ yet
Agreed! Fantasia could be incredible.
Yeah I just hope that the sources aren't so old that they can't get a good scan of it. Also with the old cel animation being a bunch of plates laying on top of each other, there's going to be a decrease in quality.
I would love to see some Ghibli movies on 4K. Those could look spectacular
Totally agree. Huge missing piece of the format.
Cell animation movies usually don’t see an improvement on 4K. I would love to be proven wrong with the Ghibli movies, as Spirited Away is in my top ten movies ever, but as you can see even Jeff didn’t have a single cell animation movie on his list here.
@@donsimpsonshead8809 You make a good point but I could see ghibli being an exception. Just in the basis of HDR alone
I'd probably bet they would need to commit to a full restoration for that undertaking alone, and rights issues in Japan as well
@@donsimpsonshead8809 As far as cell animation not seeing an improvement…. I don’t know. Princess & The Frog is cell animated, & it’s beautiful on 4k.
Into the Spider-verse is amazing. That Bill Sienkiewicz style Kingpin made my jaw drop first time I saw him. One of the most unique artists to ever create comics and they actually pulled off animating his style.
Totally. The first time I saw Sienkiewicz are was the Demon Bear story in The New Mutants Omnibus. I was both shocked at the complete difference in art style that had come before and amazed at the way it worked wit the story. Exceptional.
Got Spiderverse on 4K when it was on sale. It has multiple animation styles and a great story that'll leave you in tears. Saw it in theaters. Really amazing.
With Coraline scoring so high, and knowing stop motion does so well in 4k... it's time, we NEED Nightmare Before Christmas on 4k. C'mon Disney and Tim Burton 🤞🤞🤞
YES!!
Well we have it now and it is amazing
The Lego Batman has probably the best HDR effect I've seen so far.. Popping, amazing colours and tons of fun!
I love it, too. It is the first movie on 4K Blu-ray disc that I purchased. HDR goodness 🤤 😎
Lego Batman has a TON of Wide Color Gamut usage. The super saturated colours look great on a decent HDR screen.
Snow White, Spirited Away, A Land Before Time, Batman: Mask of the Phantasm, The Iron Giant and DuckTales the Movie. Would be great to get those on 4K UHD.
I second Batman: Mask of the Phantasm and Iron Giant. I love those two movies. 😎
@@davidbenning10 couldn’t agree more!
I’d add ParaNorman to this list. Curious how The Prince of Egypt and Kubo and the Two Strings are going to look when they’re released over the next couple of months.
I think they’ll both be fantastic
Really looking forward to Kubo!
I've preordered Prince of Egypt, I'll let you know how it is
@@aneurinprice6135 late mail?
Can’t wait for Puss in Boots The Last Wish to release on 4K. I betcha it’s going to look great.
Animation is my favorite genre of film so this video is RIGHT up my alley. I already own a lot of these on 4K but it's great to see some recommendations for others I don't have yet.
Jeff, what is your opinion of the 4k release of Makoto Shinkai's Your Name and whether its worth it over the blu ray? Do you have any anime you'd like to see on 4k? I recently watched Grave of the Fireflies on regular blu ray and while it looked good, I think a new 4k scan+HDR would make the visuals even better
I have Your Name and Weathering with you by Makoto Shinkai on 4k Blu-ray and they are both astounding. I would highly recommend the upgrade and I can't wait to get Suzume when it comes out on disk.
how to train your dragon had some good moments with fire..
Moana is visually stunning even on Disney+ in Dolby Vision.
Angry Birds 2 has legit one of the funniest scenes in any animated movie ever. When the birds and pigs wear that eagle disguise into the restroom to get that guard's ID card. Literally makes my kids and me cry because we laugh so hard, every single time.
Also absolutely agree with your #1. Best animated film, best comic book movie of all time.
Yes, I about fell over laughing when I saw it at the theater! I love Angry Birds Movie 2
Ghost in the shell 4k should be on there!
Yeaa! And The Croods movies, Encanto, Luca
No How to Train Your Dragon movies here?
Love these categorised top 4K videos, nice and informative. Gotta agree Coraline, Spiderverse and Lego Batman all look amazing.
I will say, I do like the Lupin, the third castle of Cagliostro 4K
I would have liked to see some anime represented here. I highly recommend Belle 4K and importing Your Name 4K. But my favorite animated 4K disc is Moana.
I’m surprised you put Sing 1 instead of Sing 2 because I feel the visuals in the sequel are way more colorful and impressive, especially in the redshore city shots.
The hand dryer in the restroom looked super realistic. I couldn’t believe it.
I really enjoyed the Transformers movie from 1986 on 4k. Obviously, the animation can't compete with modern technology, but I still think they managed to use HDR and make it look really good
I hear it was DNR’d
One animated movie I'm dying to for them to release on 4K is "My Life as a Zucchini."
Something silky and vibrant about 4k animated movies
Love my discs
It's no wonder that Toy Story 4 looks so amazing as it was rendered in 4K. The HDR during the antique store scenes are amazing, even on my projector that doesn't do HDR as well as a TV.
Thanks for reminding me about Lego Batman! Fun movie and I had no idea it had a 4K release.
Definitely need to check out “your name” and “weathering with you” in 4k they look gorgeous and are beautiful love stories to watch with your wife!
We still need the kung fu panda trilogy on 4k
I would like to hear your thoughts on Akira 4K. It got a re-release early last year with HDR.
Great list, Jeff! If you can get your hands on the 4K of Mamoru Hosoda's "Belle" from last year, I think you'd really dig it! The visuals are insane!
We need Fantastic Mr Fox on 4K!
I just bought Into The Spiderverse this past weekend actually! Nice little HDR treat
"Weathering with you" is in my top 10 favourite animated films along with Studio Ghibli film's, Hollywood animations are great but in my opinion cant touch the Japanese animated films of Studio Ghibli and Makoto Shinkai
My #1 is Puss In Boots: The Last Wish. If you haven't seen it yet, give it a chance. I wasn't thrilled with the idea of Puss In Boots, but now that I've seen it, I love it.
No Wall-E from the CC?! The visuals from the Blu-ray blew me away and now from CC's UHD did it again, it looks amazing!
Do you recommend Wall-E 4K Blu-ray from CC or the Disney version? I want to buy one ☝️
@@davidbenning10 Definitely the one from CC, never had the one from Disney but from all reviews I've seen, CC tops it in both video and audio. Disney has little interest in physical media, what with their digital platforms and all.
@@Rapdoktor Thanks, man 🙏 Appreciate you.
I really really recommend Lupin III Castle of Cagliostro on 4K! Its an early Hayao Miyazaki movie and a super fun adventure movie with incredible set pieces, action, and music.
Thanks! Will have to check it out.
Your Name was excellent. If you havent watched it, give it a shot!
Great movies you picked. I have all the movies you picked. I think Coraline is my favourite with the PQ and SQ. Next one you should do is a top 10 anime movies either Blu-Ray or 4K. Thanks as always for your great reviews 😊
Can't wait to add all of these to my collection!
Great list, I really like How to Train your Dragon 3 on 4K also.
Ratatouille is on my list of pickups this year as a 1st time collector
Spidey-Verse is the best animated movie of all time, that is the animated movie I put in if I want to impress people with "Animated 4K/HDTV"!!!!
Amazing Story and Characters...SOOOO looking forward to the next movie.
Not included is 'Early Man' (2018) and 'A Shaun the Sheep Movie: Farmageddon' (2019), which are stop-motion movies released by Studio Canal UK on 4K disc in native 4K with HDR10 and Dolby Vision.
Nearly all of movies in this video have a 2K DI and no Dolby Vision. That doesn't mean they are bad and I still have nearly all of them but I don't see how they can make a top 10 list from the last 7 years of the format.
For somebody who doesn't appear to like Disney as a physical media company there sure are a lot of Disney titles here. What about the 'Heavy Metal' restoration released in native 4K Dolby Vision by Sony last year? If all a movie needs to get on this list is to be a good movie made from computer generated animation that is a 2K upscale and HDR10 then that is a pretty low bar, that is like a bare minimum for the format.
Where is the OG Lego Movie? It looks stunning in 4k.
Except Angry Birds 2 these are all available in 3D and well worth the watch in the format if you have the capability.
Spot on list. I started selling all of my Disney 4k discs, but def kept Into The Spider Verse, Moana, and Coco. Moana and Coco have fantastic colors and sound. Songs really are important for Disney movies IMO.
Honorable mention for Criterion Wall E and Soul. Kept them also.
Wall-E is close to my heart 💜. I love that movie.
Wonder when will Guillermo Del Toro's Pinocchio will come out. That's a top 10 "animated" collection for anyone.
How to Train Your Dragon to me is an obvious miss by you. Now for me I was impressed with Heavy Metal. Now I am certainly a fan of the movie but can look past my bias and understand why it wouldn't be on other's lists.
I was also a little surprised they weren’t on the list.
Your reviews are always to the point- clearly and succinctly stated. Very helpful- THANK YOU!
Soul on 4k to me is the best looking 4k. So beautiful.
I have a question about animated movies! When they release a 4K version of the movie, did they have to go back and reanimate everything? Or it’s just a matter of exporting the movie in 4K (since I suppose that’s how they’d send it out there for the cinema release)? Because I know that for movies shot on film it’s a matter of rescanning the original film. But how does it work with animated movies? :o i genuinely don’t know.
Can't argue with Spiderman-Spiderverse but NO AKIRA?? I guess he was just going for HDR, crispness, and audio mix but he did give praise to Spiderverse's animation style, soooo, IDK
Akira 4K is DNR’d junk.
@@ajzeg01 dude, it's the best it's ever looked so far. Unless you wanna pull out the VHS version 🤪
Akira in 4k looked great on imax screen. Didn't notice dnr. I'll take it anyday over my worn out vhs or my dvd copy.
@Dakin Lowe That's EXACTLY what I'm saying. The only downside was having to request the HDR replacement disc during that whole debacle.
Good list
Spider-Verse was the first 4K disc I ever purchased and watched!
Awesome story in this movie. I can’t wait for the sequel this June. Across the Spider-Verse 😎
Kubo and Two Strings comes out in like two weeks. I'm excited about that one. Also, Puss in Boots Last Wish is going to be amazing! Again, in like two weeks that comes out.
A lot of folks mistakenly believe that 4K isn't worth it for animated and black & white films but if the mastering is well done it's a significant upgrade. However, Coraline was a cut above with those stop-motion visual effects. Absolutely amazing.
From my collection, in no particular order...
Belle
Weathering with you
Your name
Akira
And yes, spider-man: into the spider-verse
Great list! It was announced today that the Violet Evergarden movie is getting a 4k release in May. Hopefully it looks great as well!
I’m glad it’s finally here! I waited so long! Violet Evergarden has amazing colors and so many details, I’m sure it’ll benefit greatly from 4K. 😎 👍
Are you getting just the 4K Blu-ray or the Limited Edition 4K that comes with a box and art cards?
Top 2 are big W’s. I have them both and totally agree.
08:08
I was surprised and really impressed with Moana on 4K also. I only got it in 4K because the SteelBook release was going cheap, but I'm very glad I did, rather than get it on standard Blu-ray.
Detective Pikachu doesn't count because it's a live action hybrid.
You’re missing Transformers the Movie, Ghost in the Shell and Akira all native 4k releases
Spider man on an OLED c1 with a 7.1.4 and hue sync box! I can watch that everyday. Its amazing.
Coraline was biblical... I watched the other night on my 4k projector... have to admit it's pretty much perfect and the sound... and for me who's not that bigger fan of the film it opened my eyes more and I really enjoyed the film more as well... as an extra one I'd have added... Onward that looked great... and Trolls... although I would have to revisit that one as it was one of the first 4k's I had... and finally SOUL I was really impressed with in all areas including the film...
As for the Spidey Verse, never seen it so just ordered it, I'll trust you on this one, hopefully it's as good as you said!
I am eagerly waiting for Kubo's 4K release and your review about it
Hey… Final Fantasy Advent Children 4k is a must!!💪
You need to watch belle if you haven't. There is a 4k copy and it is one of the most stunning animated movies I've ever seen and music is incredible highly recommend checking it out
I THINK TRANSFORMERS THE 1986 MOVIE IN 4K SHOULD HAVE HAD A SHOUT OUT.
Moana and Wreck-It Ralph aren't Pixar, just Disney.
Solid list. No Wall E Criterion love?!
It’s good! I think it’s just outside the top 10 for me
Wondered the same thing!
The Criterion 4K isn’t that much better than the Disney one. The reason to get the Criterion is the special features.
How about Encanto? Another stunner.
@@ajzeg01 Thanks for this info. This helps me since I want to buy Wall-E in 4K.
What is your opinion on Heavy Metal 4k UHD?
Completely agree with your #1. Into The Spiderverse is freaking stunning.
You haaaave to watch! & review, ParaNorman! That would’ve my #2. Another on my list, is The Peanuts Movie. The details in that are astounding! Especially when you go into Snoopy’s Red Barron imagination.
Does Spiderman Across The Spiderverse differ in 4K UHD Blu Ray and normal Blu Ray?
3D Computer animation should never be in the same category as Cell or stop motion animation. Also, most of the Marvel movies these days are filmed using green screens, do they count as 3D animated movies?
Isn't Coraline native 4K?
Missing Trolls 1 or 2 in the list, colors really pop up in that movies and are HDR reference on 4k animation
I actually thought that the angry birds movie 2 was actually good and surprisingly funny coming from an adult
I agree Into the Spider-Verse is #1 right now. That's a wild disc. Raya and the Last Dragon is really dope, excellent looking CGI water throughout.
Have Caroline its fantastique!!! and also spider man just great. Both have amazing colors and sound tracks.
Never see Rango show up on folks' wish lists...especially if a new Atmos soundtrack is part of the upgrade
You should make an updated version of this liist!
The Sing 4k disc is an actual rip off. The HDR grading changes nothing from the HD Blu-Ray, which also has the Atmos track.
Why is everyone pretending that Sleepy Hollow will not hit different in 4K
Nice video. 👍 Animation is fantastic when it comes to 4K UltraHD Blu-ray, it's often what benefits the most from the format and its upgrades over its predecessors. The vast majority of my collection (4K and overall) is comprised of animation, and if I had to do a personal Top 10 animated 4K discs in picture quality to this date, from what I currently own, it would roughly be like this:
#10: Spider-Man: Into The Spider-Verse
#9: The Lion King (1994)
#8: Moana
#7: Aladdin (1992)
#6: How to Train Your Dragon: The Hidden World (the previous two are top-notch on the format too 🐉)
#5: Space Adventure Cobra
#4: Belle
#3: The Transformers: The Movie (1986)
#2: The Princess and The Frog
*#1: Robot Carnival* (The best looking disc I own to date, right up there with Top Gun: Maverick, I mean it. Give it a try! 😁)
I really hope to add soon to my collection the following: The Prince of Egypt ( *THERE CAN BE MIRACLES WHEN YOU BELIEVE* I'm so excited about this one, it's actually happening for real 😆), Coraline, ParaNorman, Kubo & The Two Strings, the Violet Evergarden Movie, Disney's 1950 Cinderella and the new Super Mario movie that's being released in cinemas in the upcoming months.
Other movies currently unannounced for the disc format that reside in my wishlist are The Road to El Dorado (and the other DreamWorks traditionally animated films), Legend of the Guardians: The Owls of Ga'Hoole, The Iron Giant, A Goofy Movie (read below) Redline, the 2001 Anime Metropolis, Kung Fu Panda, pretty much everything that was made by Don Bluth (starting with The Secret of N.I.M.H. and Titan A.E.), and, in an ideal world, the entire GKIDS catalog, which includes the Studio Ghibli and Cartoon Saloon movies. Currently, GKIDS has released Belle (Number 4 in my picture quality list as typed above) and Weathering With You in North America, while Mary and the Witch's Flower is available in Japan with English subtitles.
It was difficult to build such a list with so many great releases in my ever-growing collection. I generally choose 2D traditional animation on 4K UltraHD Blu-ray over 3D CGI animation, as from what I have watched, contrary to public consensus, traditional animation, be it cel or digital, takes much more and better advantage of HDR and the format's capabilities than CGI, and more often than not traditionally animated movies tend to be better than modern CGI animated movies anyway. Have you guys looked at the new 4K HDR restoration for A Goofy Movie, out of all things? It's absolutely MIND-BLOWING! There are a couple of HDR videos right here on TH-cam by The Bigger Pictures Film Restoration, if you are willing to search them up. I too do not care at all what the source resolution is, it's a complete non-factor for me when deciding to buy a new disc if a movie is upscaled or native 4K. I do mind the absence of HDR a lot, however, as are the cases with the UK releases of Future Boy Conan and Millennium Actress, that really peeves me when they omit HDR encodes on 4K discs for generally non-descript reasons or poor excuses.
Anyway, do you want to really see what does a truly terrible animated 4K disc look like? I keep reading that the Japan exclusive *Ghost in the Shell 2: Innocence* release did not come out in a watchable state at all, not in the slightest. You thought that the first Ghost in the Shell movie's 4K disc was a letdown? Well, the second movie's disc is bottom-of-the-barrel for the format in general, animated or otherwise. Even the caps-a-holic screenshots are merely enough to make one nauseous, just to think about how it would actually look in motion. 🤮
Anyway, have a good day, Jeff, and here's to 4K UltraHD Blu-ray and physical media altogether continuing having a long, prosper and fruitful run with many great movies and music to come. 📀💿
I bought Robot Carnival 4K Blu-ray during a Rightstuf sale. 100% worth it. Presence and Star Light Angel segments looks astounding in HDR! 🤩 😎 👍
Discotek sure did a good job 👏 They have some nice releases. Project A-ko looks pristine even though it’s a 1080p Blu-ray.
@@davidbenning10 Discotek Media truly devote themselves at everything they do so all of their releases come out with the very best quality and presentation there can be, putting plenty of care on their work. It's astonishing, they're extremely awesome. I wish we had more home video distributors as competent and passionate as them.
OLED mentioned in every title?
At this point, pretty much any Big blockbuster can be considered animatión. Also i wish that they released Loving Vincent, i mean that's literally every frame a painting
Where does Disney's Cars fall on your list? I love Cars, it's gorgeous.
What about Up?
I'm on board with Into The Spiderverse; such a great movie that looks and sounds *amazing*
Well, 1 thing you forgot to mention about Coco is the fact that the 4K blu-ray is missing 1 feature. The Disney+ streamed version has Dolby Vision, while the 4K Blu-ray disc only has regular HDR. Not that I still wouldn't recommend it since the improved image quality and sound really put it a few notches above the streamed version, but it's a shame that this fantastic movie does not have a truly definitive 4K release that offers the best of all.
I would have removed Detective pikachu as i don't really consider it a fully animated movie, and added Akira. Also removed Coco and add Transformers The Movie :)
Akira is DNR’d junk
Akira definitely deserves to be on the list. Watching it on 4k was a night and day difference for me
Akira 4K is DNR’d junk.
The original release had HDR too, if you ordered the replacement disc. I hear it’s DNR’d junk.
Have you ever watched Aqua Teen Forever Plantasm on 4k UHD?
In South Africa they don't sell DVD and blu-ray due to poverty and piracy.🙁☹️
On your previous toy story 4 4k disc review, you said that you were not impressed by the video quality. But in this video you say something else and that you think it looked fantastic. Im confused
How was Sing, I thought the contrast was to high on the 4K. I agree with Spiderman at the top. I would also put Scoob and Croods in my top 5 . If you put detective Pikachu on your list I would put sonic 2 on it as well.
I would say scoob has the best image quality of an animated 4k movie
2 Angry 2 Birds 2 Movie
so just American cartoons
Hey Jeff, do you know for traditional cel animated films, do they just go back and scan the finished negative or do they scan the actual individual plates? Or do those plates even exist? I wonder because with the traditional animated films, they're all composited frames and they're just going to lose a lot of clarity and depth because of that.
The Emoji Movie
