It has to be the most re-released film in history. Sad it's not the sharpest picture because there's certainly good tech around now that can really polish up old prints. As for colours, I've never seen a washed out version of this film, it always seems to be over coloured once you get to Oz.

Yeah I have to agree with you there. The only thing is I never picked up any of the previous releases. So I'm very happy with what I've got here. When you check out the 4K picture and stack it up against the previous Blu-ray you'll know exactly what I mean when I say the colours looked washed out. Such an amazing effort

Wait so they removed the HDR10+ on this release. I swear to god Dolby must be paying people off because why on earth would they do something so stupid. I may be mistaken but it does seem like HDR10+ support is slowly coming back, it died out for a while but I'm seeing more & more releases with it. Honestly I don't understand why it isn't the priority over DV, I mean Samsung are the biggest manufacturer in the world & a lot of other brands support it. I'm pretty sure there are more new TV's that support HDR10+ than DV, but I guess Dolby's marketing is that good, just look at how they've killed DTS. Still I feel like they could easily convert DV to HDR10+ automatically so there's no excuse. And if they stopped putting inferior grading on the HDR10 version this wouldn't be an issue anyway.

Hi Keith great review. I already have the limited edition emerald box version of this classic so won’t need to pick this one up. I’m slightly disappointed I didn’t hold on because this steel is fantastic Hope you are well my friend, I mentioned a long time ago back when you got your Sony Oled that if I ever gotten around to be lucky enough to get my hands on one myself that I might have to reach out to you and pick your brains as to what picture settings you recommend for both Blu-rays and 4K’s. I received my Sony A8OL today and we just watched the movie 65 with Adam Driver on 4K I’d never seen it before and we were absolutely blown away by the colours and contrast on this set. I know that you have had yours for sometime now and I remember you saying you’ve tweaked it several times to come up with the best settings. I’m feel slightly overwhelmed looking at all the different options. Should I use cinema mode or it is best to use custom which I’ve heard people say? Any good advice you could share would be massively appreciated my friend. All the best Steve.
@millerman9991Ай бұрын
First off Stephen great to hear that you got yourself a brand new Sony TV. I have to admit 65 was a great movie to check out on that television. It is absolutely breathtaking and not only that but I actually enjoyed that movie. Not sure why it got the hatred that it got. It's very hard to explain to you Stephen what I use when it comes to my settings because I have three different settings. One for Blu-rays and the other two is HDR and Dolby Vision. You mentioned custom and cinema mode. What I actually use is a feature that you won't have on your TV until you install it. It's called custom for Pro. If you type that in to Google you should be able to find out all the information that you need to install it on your TV. My best advice to you Stephen is to mess around with it for a while until you find a setting that best suits you. I ended up getting mine professionally calibrated in the end. It can be so overwhelming but trust me you will get used to it

Hi. Can anyone tell me why there are danish subtitles on the standard blu-ray disc, but not on the 4K. I've seen it before and sometimes it's the other way around.
@millerman999123 күн бұрын
Unfortunately I'm not at home so I can't check for you. But if it's the same Blu-ray disc as the 75th anniversary disc which I'm presuming it is according to blu-ray.com there is in fact Danish subtitles

Hi Keith the 80th anniversary also is 4k. Is this the same transfer do you know ? Otherwise the steelbook us enticing to me but maybe I should hold back for a sale to get that , just not sure at the mo. Great stuff. Excelsior

Hey Del. It's the exact same 4K transfer that was on the 80th anniversary. Why change it when it looks as good as it does. The release is widely available and I can't imagine it selling out
@delboy3k1Ай бұрын
@millerman9991 you know how it is......a 4k from arrow then 2 years later a 4k from scream factory for the same film.....so i had to ask really and as always we both agree why change it ? So yep....holding back until a sale. Excelsior

I have to say that personally I preferred the artwork on the previous 4k steelbook, the one with Dorothy sleeping in the flowerbed. There's also that 4 disc set that included a 4k, 2 Blu-Rays & a CD. It has this really cool pop up image on the box and comes with stills, a poster & map of OZ. That's probably the nicest set overall.
@millerman9991Ай бұрын
I need to check out that edition that you are talking about. It doesn't ring a bell. I think the best release I've ever seen for Wizard of Oz was the release that come out in America on Blu-ray. I honestly can't remember which anniversary it was. I remember you got so much in that set. I think there was even jewellery in it if I remember correctly
@hanschristianbrando5588Ай бұрын
Be honest. Is the picture and/or sound quality appreciably better than Blu Ray (at least enough to invest in the 4K)? What's the difference anyway? Maybe I'll wait for the 100th anniversary release which will probably be interactive: you're really there, and you actually turn sepia during the Kansas sequences.
@millerman9991Ай бұрын
Every single aspect of the Blu-ray they improved on with the 4K release. The grain structure is better resolved. The picture is so much sharper and the colours literally blow the Blu-ray out of the water. So yes there is an appreciable difference. Of course it all depends on the equipment you're using as well

What gets me about these "Collectors Editions" is they're nearly double or sometimes over double the price of the standard and all you get extra is Printed Cardboard. The only Collectors Edition I'm interested in is The Hitcher which has a book for interviews and a book for the original script.
@millerman999129 күн бұрын
The thing with myself is I love every single aspect of releases like this. Whether it's the outer case or the Steelbook itself. I even love the way the postcards are presented. Not only that but it's also the definitive version to own and for that reason alone I think it's worth paying extra
@WesTheHunter29 күн бұрын
@millerman9991 Oh absolutely! If you get enjoyment from having a nice package that's fantastic. I've just got the "Insane Collector" mindset where the most important part to me is the content on the disc and I want the most content possible like the complete uncut uncensored movie and any deleted scenes or cutting room floor material is great. Never been big on commentaries but it's nice them being there and I do like special features like Behind the scenes, Bloopers and Making Of, I particularly loved the one in the Shining. I wish special features and deleted scenes were given more love and remastered.
@millerman999128 күн бұрын
@WesTheHunter don't get me wrong as much as I as much as I enjoy fancy packaging it will always come down to the disc and it's contents. Ideally I like the best of both worlds.

I completely understand that Lee. This movie is not for everybody. As for the Blazing Saddles release great to hear that you have it pre-ordered yourself. I really hope Warner Brothers deliver on that 4K transfer. You're not going to believe me when I say this but I have not seen young Frankenstein. I was meant to get around to watching it but I never did. I was very tempted to pick up that Steelbook edition that came out on Blu-ray. I still might. Thank you once again for stopping by

@lee-the-artist-1392 yeah I was aware that Mel Brooks directed it but I didn't realise it was the same year as Blazing Saddles. The sad thing about it Lee is if it didn't happen on its 50th anniversary chances are it's not going to happen anytime soon. I really hope I'm wrong when I say that for your sake. You never know maybe they'll wait and see how Blazing Saddles does and if it does well they might consider it.
