    True Lies 4K UHD

    My interest in the old DVD was simply to look at it to see how it looks on my modern OLED uprezzed. And I was curious now that I’ve seen the streaming version to see how it compared. If I needed to get a True Lies fix, and it’s no longer available to stream, the DVD is serviceable. :) Almost 2...

    True Lies 4K UHD

    i understand the guys who posted here that the DVD of True Lies is made from an old laser disc master that’s not very good by today’s standards. I was still curious to see how the disc looks. I have not seen it in a very long time. I ripped it with MakeMKV and it ripped very fast and the file...

    True Lies 4K UHD

    I’ll do a MakeMKV rip of the disc and test play it via Plex. And I’ll test the DVD too. I found the disc in my cabinet. It’s from 1999 and indicates the movie is in widescreen format. But that of course doesn’t mean it’s anamorphic.

Agreed with Joshua, at the time of the movie, I seemed to recall thinking there was the sexism and racial stuff going on, I think a reviewer commented on that. I had not considered that it’s a reason Cameron might...

    True Lies 4K UHD

    Wow, I had not realized that Apple TV+ has True Lies, I just found it there and I can play it. I just might watch it there. And I can see how it compares to the Paramount+ too. I have not explored the titles available there as I much prefer to view my own discs.

    True Lies 4K UHD

    All this talk of True Lies has got me curious to watch it again. I haven’t seen the DVD and laser disc in years waiting on the HD version! I’m curious if the DVD is OK. I recently watched Panic Room on the DVD since it doesn’t have a blu ray either and it was very watchable. True Lies has some...
