      Great video Elliot! Regarding the Blade Runner box set which i also own, any tips for getting those rating certificate stickers off without damaging? I just tried and wished I hadn't bothered, probably because they've been on so long! I should of done it when I bought it. Also, any idea if there are plans for anymore Stanley Kubrick 4K UK releases? I did Google it but couldn't find any information. Thanks!

      Elliot Coen Absolutely! It was honestly almost distracting how beautiful it looked, I legitimately would pause and rewind a few scenes just to marvel at how good it looked. I purchased a 65” LG C9 earlier this year so I’ve been going back through and rewatching a bunch of my UHD discs and it’s wonderful.

      Blade Runner 4k uhd is great but I would have hoped that it also include dolby vision hdr ’cause I think it always looks better than hdr10 (for ex. The Shining and Jaws).

    • @bradleyhunn8046

      It's a very nice 4k blu ray disc, it's in my collection. I've only got 30 4k blu ray films, would have more if films like Terminator 2 didn't have shoddy dnr & ee transfers!
      Still ordered LOTR trilogy 4k boxset even though Peter Jackson used digital noise reduction and edge enhancement. I'll keep it until Warner Bros do a faithful transfer in a decade or so 😆

      I have a 75" QLED and Marantz atmos system, when we do movie night we always "pop in a disc." Streaming is getting better but it is nothing compared to the visual and audio combined. There is zero chance of the disc getting interrupted, bogged down or canceled mid-movie. The audio is also much fuller and richer. Streaming atmos for the same movie listens brighter with an emphasis on the "ts" and "Ss". I will always buy my movies on disk.

    Hey Elliot, love your videos. I've been collecting 4K blu-rays for a couple years and have around 100 so far (including your top 5 - The Deer Hunter just came out in the states) and just recently got into the Criterion Collection which is what led me to your channel. Glad to see you showing some love to 4K as well! Here's my top 5:
    1. Blade Runner 2049
    2. Dunkirk
    3. Apocalypse Now
    4. Parasite
    5. The Shining
    So many good ones left out though that look amazing in 4K! The Revenant, Mad Max: Fury Road, Interstellar, Alien, 1917 and every movie you mentioned!

    I love the face that Clint Eastwood is making on the cover of UNFORGIVEN lol That movie brings back so many great memories for me. It's one of my Dad's favourite movies and I remember watching it with him all the time when I was a kid. I didn't know it had come out on 4K, though. Thanks for recommending it - I'll have to add it to my wish list now and maybe watch it with Pops again sometime soon :) Fun fact about me and The Matrix: I dressed up as Trinity for Halloween once when I was a teenager. I freaking LOVE her.
    When you spoke about there being noise and grain in movies originally recorded on film, I likened that to vinyl. When I hear people complaining about pops and static when they're listening to an album on vinyl, I'm always like "dude that's the whole point and magic of vinyl!!" Pops and dips in sound are what you want.

    Hi Elliott and congratulations on passing the 4k subscriber mark. You deserve that and so much more. Great idea for a video and I love the title you picked. The only one I haven't seen in 4k is Blade Runner. I now have it on my list to pick up so thank you for that. I enjoyed hearing your thoughts and hope all is well with you. 👍👍

I have the collection on Blu-Ray from Christmas. However, I really wanted it on 4K too. I actually found one on eBay with the slipcover, $40 but it was worth it for the collection. Thank you for the review.

    You are sharing incorrect information about The Matrix 4K UHD. The "green tint" was the revised version to match The Matrix Reloaded and The Matrix Revolutions (both with green tinting as well). The original theatrical release and home video release of The Matrix had the blue tint. The 4K UHD returns to the "blue tint" and not to the green tint as you have described in your video post.
