I've always loved this movie because it honestly feels like you're transported back to small town America in the late 50s. The casting is also excellent
I have the Blu Ray and DVD. Gonna pass on this. The slight upgrade doesn’t justify cost to me. Gonna save my money to get Star Trek NG (another Wil Wheaton vehicle) on Blu Ray. Complete series in like only $65 now!
Hey Jeff, nice 4K review on a great classic movie. I'm in my 50's and I'm not spoiled with todays high quality video and audio technology, so its one my favorite movies I'm going to buy the upgrade regardless without much hesitation. For years I watched movies with low quality through TV and DVD. seeing movies from back in the day on 4K is so new and refreshing. The Little Rascals restoration on Blu-ray from ClassicFlix is perfect example.
I bought this today (4K) and looking forward to watching it tonight. Haven't watched this film in nearly 20 years. love the geeky in depth review. Great film, appreciate your input. 👍
I think when comparing the differences, the difference really boils down to the color corrections that taken place, it's quite noticeable on the closeup when they've dialed back the reds to give a better skin tone.
I think David Fincher might be one of those directors who gets to control his home video releases like James Cameron. Also, with the Disney acquisition of 20th Century Fox, things might be more complicated.
Fight Club would be a Day One purchase for me. I wonder how much of a difference there would be between the DVD, the Blu-ray, and the 4K, since Fincher wanted it to have a dirty, gritty look to it.
Also Disney is not really the best with Fox titles. They’ve released quite a few, but it’s a drop in the bucket compared to the entire Fox catalog. They just started work on Home Alone 2, which they’re doing in 4K from scratch, so maybe we’ll get lucky and get Fight Club in 2024 fir the 25th anniversary. I don’t think David Fincher is as much of a dildo about his movies like Cameron is though, so I think we’ll get Fight Club before we get True Lies and The Abyss.
One of my favorite films growing up. Not sure what it is about this one but I definitely need it in my collection. It’s one of those films you can watch every few years and it’s just as good as the first time you watched it.
This is my favorite movie of all time and as soon as I got a 4K player this was one of the first titles I had to pick up. It looks spectacular! But not too polished.
I think The Great Outdoor scenes will use Dolby Atmos full potential, too. I've got this 4k movie, but soon I hope to upgrade to Dolby Atmos and DTS-X.
I love this movie. It’s crazy how many great movies have been rereleased in 4K. If they would finally release Pink Floyd The Wall in 4K, I would be ecstatic!
What are some of the best ways to keep track of your collection I'm currently downloading a movie poster for every title I get and then I can just browse the poster picture folder like a netflix screen or something I like it myself but just wondering what other options us peeps are using?
There is an app called Snupps that I like to use to catalogue my vinyl record and movie collections. They have groups too, so you can find a movie/vinyl record/whatever group and share your collections and see everyone's different tastes and such, it's pretty cool!
@@SamLovesMovies25 Interesting have you run into a scenario where a lesser known movie or show isn't on there to track cause that's a problem I'm worried about running into myself?
I use CLZ movies as an app on my phone so i always have my collection available to look up. Has a barcode scanner for easy input and the covers are downloaded into the database for a great presentation
@@jbainbridge22 Snupps doesn't work like that; it is a collection-cataloguing app so you just take a picture of your item (whatever it may be) and enter it manually. I guess that might not be what you are looking for, but I personally like that because it allows for freedom, personalization, and you can catalogue any kind of collection/items you want.
I'm waiting for 4K titles to just be released as 4K disc only. What I mean is that most of us Phys-Media collectors already have the previous version(s), don't need another Blu-ray! That hasn't stopped me from upgrading, but there's is a needless waste of materials in getting another disc we already have.
One of my fav movies as a kid. I don’t think I have it on ANY media. Would love to get it in 4K but I’ve gotten into this thing where I only wanna by physical media IF it comes with a digital copy or code. 🤷♂️
If you already own the blu-ray copy then you don't really need to upgrade. But if you want it then wait on a sale. I went from the DVD and honestly if I didn't get the 4K version for $7.99CAD I would have been disappointed in the upgrade. Sure the picture quality and sound is a big jump but really are most average viewers going to the notice once you get into the movie?
To me Atmos tracks aren't important especially with older films that didn't have Atmos sound to begin with I'd rather have a normal 5.1, as long as I can get the sound that the film at thw time had is fine with me I ha e a 5.2 set up and that's all I need anything other to me is overkill the overhead speakers of atmos to me is not truly necessary for film enjoyment a really good surround sound system to me is truly all that is needed
I’ll stick with my dvd reales of this film cause it’s good and the picture is good to me if I pop it in my blu-ray player it upscales the picture and upscales the sound plus I like the cover art better on the dvd reales thank you for review on the 4K disc it was very informative and good to hear your opinion on it
I've always loved this movie because it honestly feels like you're transported back to small town America in the late 50s. The casting is also excellent
Out in the great beyond, there is a multiverse where river is alive and him and his brother took over Hollywood. How I wish to live in that multiverse
It's the best film of the 80s in my opinion so I'd say its an easy buy.
I have the Blu Ray and DVD. Gonna pass on this. The slight upgrade doesn’t justify cost to me. Gonna save my money to get Star Trek NG (another Wil Wheaton vehicle) on Blu Ray. Complete series in like only $65 now!

Thanks! I’ve heard that Little Rascals set is special!
@@JeffRauseo Absolutely amazing restorations, check out the ClassicFlix's TH-cam channel for before and after clips. 👍👍
Natural grain, natural colours and great contrast/colour makes this must own. Beautiful transfer. Beautiful film.
Will there be a 4k release of the Bad News Bears movies?
Great preview… can’t wait for you to get 100,000 viewers. It would one hell of a Christmas present for you!! Jeff ✌️✌️
I didn't own the blu-ray, so the 4K purchase was a no brainer. It looks and sounds fantastic with the HDR and Atmos.
I’m new to the Channel! Love the content! Quick question 🙋♀️ where did u get ur movie shelves behind you ? I need something like that
I bought this today (4K) and looking forward to watching it tonight. Haven't watched this film in nearly 20 years. love the geeky in depth review. Great film, appreciate your input. 👍

I have the other 4k o stand by me but is this worth the upgrade
Question ...
Whats with a "FIGHT CLUB" 4k release?
Thats one of the most iconic movies ever so whats the hold up?
I think David Fincher might be one of those directors who gets to control his home video releases like James Cameron. Also, with the Disney acquisition of 20th Century Fox, things might be more complicated.
^ this. Fincher has total control and needs to supervise it, so it’s taking longer as he works on other projects. I’d expect it at some point though.
@@JeffRauseo
Thanks.
"Fight Club" would be a best-selling 4k for sure.
Im not complaining we get great 4k releases every month ...

Definitely picking this up
This is my favorite movie of all time and as soon as I got a 4K player this was one of the first titles I had to pick up. It looks spectacular! But not too polished.
Just got the blu-ray for 3 bucks, looked amazing. Wouldn't imagine paying 20+ bucks for a 1 gram better quality.
one of my favourite movies hope to order it soon love stand by me
I have this same on 4k in uk,its way better quality then Dirty Dancing in 4k,greetings from Scotland😁✌️✌️✌️
I’ve only ever seen this on 4K. Looks great!!!
Once again great review by Jeff.
I think The Great Outdoor scenes will use Dolby Atmos full potential, too. I've got this 4k movie, but soon I hope to upgrade to Dolby Atmos and DTS-X.
Thanks for this one. I've been wondering if I should get it.
Love the movie. Top shelf stuff. But I’ll stick to the regular Bluray for now.
I love this movie. It’s crazy how many great movies have been rereleased in 4K. If they would finally release Pink Floyd The Wall in 4K, I would be ecstatic!
I just grabbed this one about 2 weeks ago from Amazon and mine had a slipcover too I was shocked

Great comparison shots.
Prefer the foliage on the Blu for being more varied; all others, preferred the UHD.
Thanks.

It's not uncommon for the Blu-ray in catalog 4K releases to have the new master that the 4K disc is using. It's just in 1080p SDR instead of 4K HDR.
One of my fav movies as a kid. I don’t think I have it on ANY media. Would love to get it in 4K but I’ve gotten into this thing where I only wanna by physical media IF it comes with a digital copy or code. 🤷♂️
I personally love the 4k version over the blu ray even though blu ray was good as well.
A few movies I want on 4K
Tombstone
A Christmas Story
The Warriors
The Last Starfighter
La Bamba
Young Guns
The Natural
Over all a good looking movie with up grade sound.
Yes it is 👍
If you already own the blu-ray copy then you don't really need to upgrade. But if you want it then wait on a sale.

I think the blue ray 2k looked better in all your shots.
To me Atmos tracks aren't important especially with older films that didn't have Atmos sound to begin with I'd rather have a normal 5.1, as long as I can get the sound that the film at thw time had is fine with me I ha e a 5.2 set up and that's all I need anything other to me is overkill the overhead speakers of atmos to me is not truly necessary for film enjoyment a really good surround sound system to me is truly all that is needed
I have owned this for a awhile
Came out 2 years ago but he’s finally getting around it he says it in the video
@@hhinojosareef1 oh I got last year
Great review but all things considered I will stay with my bluray :)
Without watching I'm gonna say YES. Looks amazing, some grain but HDR looks very good.
I’ll stick with my dvd reales of this film cause it’s good and the picture is good to me if I pop it in my blu-ray player it upscales the picture and upscales the sound plus I like the cover art better on the dvd reales thank you for review on the 4K disc it was very informative and good to hear your opinion on it
One of my all times, with the goonies and LA bamba
👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
I'll just stick to the standard definition short story.
The steelbook has Dolby Vision.
Are you on letterboxd for fans to follow?
Looks like its back up to $20 on amazon
Damn. It’ll drop again
@@JeffRauseo I have it saved so hopefully get an alert. Was not available in the Danvers store. Will keep checking the others close by.
I've always loved this movie, can't say much vs the blu-ray as the last time I had watched it was on DVD.
One of my favorite films of all time 🙌🏼
One of the greatest Stephen King films still and likely always will be. Is a perfect film.
The Stand is Stephen King's book (I think). Stand By Me is a different title (I think).
Wrong
It's based on the novella The Body by Stephen King.
