Awesome. Great film. More Leconte, please.

Not all of us.

I'm assuming this is the same transfer as the disc?

The 70mm would be softer and less stable, and of course prone to dust and scratches. A 4K DCP would appear sharper, rock solid and immune to wear and tear.

There's a DVD from Warner Archive. It's also available in HD on iTunes (or Apple TV or whatever it's called now) and looks decent, if unspectacular.

They'll release a standard edition a few months later.

Yes, and they were released within a month of each other.

A writer not receiving credit for their work? Outrageous. That never happens in Hollywood.

Maybe True Lies was the first one they did and got better at the process with the other two.

The First Omen is also set in the early-70s, not the early-2000s.

Well, Peck as Thorn. There's a photo of him in a file.

There's a screening of the 4K To Catch a Thief coming this summer that I'll try to see and compare to the blu-ray.

Except there's a reference to Gregory Peck at the end of The First Omen.

I don't know. Paramount has defended that look. And the 4K digital looks pretty much the same. https://thedigitalbits.com/item/to-catch-a-thief-paramount-presents-2020-bd

You should have held out for one with a May 25th best before date.

Not much point if it’s just going to be Paramount’s new smoothed-over transfer.

Never mind.

The new Apple app is terrible. It’s impossible to tell what resolution anything is available in. It lists this as 4K Dolby Vision, but that’s only on Paramount+. If you want to rent or buy it on Apple, it’s just HD.

I think that may be referring to its presentation on MGM+.

Mission Impossible - Fallout, not the new Amazon series.

I'd rather they go with a relative unknown, à la Connery, Dalton and Craig.

You're just going to stick with digital?

They licenced Citizen Kane to Criterion and there’s a 4K digital of that.

The “happy” ending somehow seems darker and more cynical than the more sincere alternate ending.

I like to think of it as a prequel to The Big Lebowski.

But it doesn't apply only to home video. The new 'reimaginings' are universal masters for any future television, streaming, disc, and theatrical releases. The only way to see something resembling the original presentations might be if Tarantino has original prints which he'll screen at the New...

I don't think Saturday Night Fever has been mentioned yet.

It's a new scan. Dr. No through Live and Let Die plus Moonraker are the old Lowry scans - everything else is new.

There's probably no movie that captures 80s aesthetics and politics quite like the original Top Gun.
