    International Arrow Video Press Release: DUNE (1984) (4K UHD)

    Judging from these caps, this transfer is the double edged sword I was expecting. The color is better and Universal's infamous late-2000s overly aggresive dnr is absent. That being said...there is no fine detail here...at all. I mean look at this. Its just exchanging one kind of smear for...

    That's Chicken Soup for the Soul's call. Lionsgate's distribution agreement for the old Halmi catalog ended over a decade ago.

    Its one thing to omit the extended TV cut but this is just aggravating.

    Well this release just lost a lot of luster. At least you could delay it Arrow.

    That's the Todd AO 35 look for ya. Crappy cameras. Crappy lenses. All because DDL didn't want to pay Panavision a rental fee (he'd later invest in an even cheaper/lousier process in J-D-C Scope for his DEG films)..
