Haha yeah I wanted to get the reviews out before the weekend

@@CollectorCreations Ruthless efficiency. 📥📤

DVD’s aren’t better, they’re just more popular

Actually Miller’s preferred version is the Black and Chrome version. I have both the 4K and B&C and I usually watch the 4K but I do like the B&C. But again that’s the choice I have as the audience and consumer, I can choose either but I own both. If anything 3D is a gimmick that was forced into popularity at the time Fury Road was released, so I’d prefer the HDR gimmick over the 3D gimmick given it looks better and is actually watchable (cause 3D is not a popular format anymore so you can’t really watch it unless you have VR or an old 3D TV).

​@@CollectorCreations George Miller at Cannes: "OK, I love 3D stereo! In fact, when we were going to shoot this back in 2001, I was dumb enough to try to do it classic analglyph and just have a few scenes with the green and red as it were. In this film, if I had a choice, I'd see it in 3D."

@CollectorCreations 50 million 3d sets were sold when they stopped making those sets. How unpopular. Something can't continue to grow when it's not offered to consumers to even see it for 8 years. At its height, some 3d titles had equal/higher market share to 4k. When Kong v Godzilla 3D was released, it hit #1 on Amazon sales charts. Even when it dropped down, still outsold the 4k. In fact, if 3d had continued to be offered along with 4k, physical media might not be in as much trouble, especially since 3d isnt available on streaming. Let even one mfgr put out a consumer 3d set and see how long they can keep it in stock. 4k didn't connect with mainstream because most see no or negligible diff to BD...and it's sometimes even worse. If you think adding depth to height and width, without altering the look...is a gimmick while the image-altering HDR so disliked by filmmakers (and even Joe Bob Briggs!) isnt, or that 3D isnt watchable(!) well then, nothing left to say. I'll take DR STRANGE 1&2, GRAVITY, AVATARS, etc etc etc in immersive 3D over the flat 4k any day. You are happy to settle for otherwise. To each their own. Me, I'm glad Deadpool 3 is in 3D.

I’m sure you can import it or find it at an import store if you looked for it, but I don’t know what country you are in so I cannot say for certain

Thanks and it's Ireland 👍!

Glad to be of service 🫡

@@CollectorCreations I would really like to see your review on Imprint’s Rambling Rose!

I got that in the other day so I can definitely do one on that too

@@CollectorCreations 🙌

Imprint have done a great job, and it’s nice to see a solid local release of the film.

It’s out of print in Australia cause Disney pulled out of releasing anything in Australia.

Thank you for your response. I love physical media, and am I huge champion for its preservation. I’m a lover of film, both the medium and the format, especially over digital. The thing about my being younger is that I still have a lot to learn about film and its medium. It’s something that I’m passionate about. “If you don’t like it don’t buy it” is an opinion I stick by. Most physical media buyers don’t do the research before buying and are more prone to complaining that ‘it didn’t look like it did when I saw it in the cinema 30+ years ago’. Respecting physical media means respecting those who produce it, who remaster it, who encode it. Hence why I think there is value in my discussion of whether I think something like an upscale is an important way to keep physical media alive. Sure, I don’t know everything and I get things wrong but I’m always open to learn and to grow. I’ve benefited a lot from the comments on this channel, as they’ve taught me about a lot of aspects of physical media and of collectors themselves. If a format like DVD is still so prized to some yet hated by others I choose to discuss it. And it surprises people that don’t know these certain things. Some people like watching films in a certain way, whether that being on an older format or projected. They love film but hate digital, sometimes it’s the other way around and sometimes it’s both. Physical media is an art form, a way to preserve tv and film and entertainment/art in general. We love this and I love to talk about it. For that reason I appreciate you considering me to be insufferable, an opinion I imagine others have. I respect constructive criticism, despite your lack of any actual criticism, constructive or otherwise. Nevertheless you can continue to enjoy the films and shows you love in which ever way you choose to interact with them. If you don’t want to watch my videos then that’s also a valid option. Thanks for taking your time to respond to my video.

Upscaled or upgraded?

That makes a lot of sense

Is it more noticeable on a projection? Better or worse when upscaled?

@@CollectorCreations depends on what era it was made in and how they used old film stock or digital versions from 35 to 70mm and upscaled in 4K or from a standard dvd more grain less and dnr waxy figures hair gates and other problems with lighting in scenes darker or more lighted

Alien is only out of print in Australia and a few other countries because Disney doesn’t release here anymore. Germany is infamous for their exclusive releases of films with completely different audio and picture and special features, compared to most other countries

What’s not?

@@CollectorCreationslol he probably just read the thread title and didn’t watch

@tomahawk238 I think you’re onto something

Yeah Rollercoaster was a lot of fun, love me a good 70’s flick (same as a good Linklater but he hasn’t done anything bad that I’ve seen so far)

Interesting. I have the Blu-ray which is the Japanese cut (thankfully) but still a US release, but I’ve heard rumours that Criterion might be working on it for a Heisei set now that they’ll be streaming the first four Heisei films on their streaming platform

I feel like everything Disney will be oop soon. The Sony deal seems to have gone nowhere

@@tomahawk238 seems like Disney happy to let all the old timeless classics films to sit in a dusty vault and rott. I guess that's why u got internet sharing platforms.

I got the Japanese copy of biollante just to complete the collection but would scoop up one with English title in a second if re-released

Criterion is releasing them
