I agree. I think the new stream looks spectacular. The best it’s ever looked.

I watched it last night on Vudu. TCAT 4K was a wonderful sight too see. Breathtaking Oscar winning cinematography ! I felt like I was on a the Riviera.aa

It's $14.99 right now on iTunes. I put it on my wish list -- hopefully it will drop back down to $5 at some point.

Well, I guess we just have to disagree because I loved the look of this 4K/Dolby Vision stream. From now on, I will watch this 4K stream instead of my 2012 Blu-ray. I haven't compared the two which I might do when I have some time, but I thought the stream looked beautiful.

It should be interesting to read what others think of this new 4K/DV stream.

I'll check out the 4K tonight. As a reminder, even in the HD stream, I do agree that the colours on this transfer are far superior. I also prefer the sound BTW.

I'll check out the 4K tonight.

I thought you did that already?

No, when he made his prior comments, the stream had the new master, but it was still in HD.

Ah. Gotcha.

I’m still waiting on my copy of to catch a thief to update to 4k.
Is there a way to refresh without buying another digital title?

I'm sure I've said this before. On the device you are trying to watch it on, log out of your Apple account, and then log back in. It will take several minutes for your library to reload itself, freshly.

Update: Yep, I did say this in post #129

After checking out the 4K stream, we'll agree to disagree. I'm sticking with RAH (and the previous release) on this one.

Thanks for the observations.

I'm going to have to agree to disagree as well. I have seen this movie about 172,568 times and I am deeply dissatisfied with this transfer.

I don't spend much time in the blu-ray forum so I haven't read that thread and don't know what other's complaints are, but for ME I just object to the color here.

It just feels very COOL. Bluish. It feels like everybody would want to be wearing winter jackets rather than swimsuits, if that makes any sense...

Has RAH commented on the 4K/Dolby Vision stream? I must have missed it. What did he say about it?

Is the transfer used for the blu RAH reviewed and the 4K stream not the same?

As far as anyone knows, it is the same.

 

[Robert Crawford]

Like I stated beforehand, I’m not trying to change anybody’s opinion. I’m very happy with this 4K stream and that’s it.

Probably. My question was in regard to whether RAH commented on the 4K stream.

Ditto.

So far he has not.

Wow! That's a lot of times!

Let's see, if you watched it once per day, you would need to be 472 years old to see it that many times -- plus would have needed to start watching on the day you were born (and the movie wasn't created that long ago). You would have needed to watch it about 7.25 times per day since it's release.

Do you know what got upgraded to 4K on iTunes today? Disney films.
