Well, the last chunk of that movie is really cool.Next up is Attack of the Clones. Something tells me it isn't going to hold up nearly as well.

This movie too.Going dark with this thread? This movie has been out for 20 years!
Same here, it looked great on my LG OLED.I thought the 4K stream on Disney+ looked phenomenal. I've never been impressed with any of the other home video presentations of this movie.
I'm not questioning what you're seeing in HD on your projection. I just noted that the 4K/Dolby Vision stream looks fantastic on my LG OLED.I have no doubt that the actual 4K stream, especially when viewed on a 4K TV vs a projection screen, would look phenomenal.
What I’m seeing is that their HD version of the stream does not appear to blow up to larger sizes as well as the Blu-ray version does. So if the 4K part isn’t a factor in your viewing, the disc may (for now) be the better experience.
Star Wars: Episode I – The Phantom Menace is returning to cinemas for a limited time on May 3rd, to celebrate its 25th anniversary.
Star Wars: The Phantom Menace 25th Anniversary Cinema Release Confirmed For May The 4th Weekend – Exclusive

2) May 3rd is closer to the 25th anniversary of The Mummy than TPM.
I'd imagine that the release date for this was designed to coincide with May The 4th. Between that and an "ad campaign" that will be entirely based on fan word of mouth, they'll make a few million bucks with almost no effort. Same as last year's Return Of The Jedi.5/3 puts the re-release up against "Fall Guy", whereas a closer-to-actual-25th 5/24 would put it against "Furiosa" and "Garfield Movie".
I guess they thought it'd do better with less competition.
I doubt it'll make much money anyway.

Yep - When I mentioned to my 20yo grandson that it was coming back to theaters on May 3rd his first comment was "Why not the 4th? That makes more sense." I just said "Well... it's that weekend so..."I'd imagine that the release date for this was designed to coincide with May The 4th.
