Bad deal. Cheaper elsewhere by a long way

How is this hot when it's cheaper elsewhere?

Same here, got a lovely copy of Everest in 4K winging it's way here. It'll be compost by the time I upgrade. Hopefully 4K Compost players will be invented by then.

Not having a 4K tv has not stopped me buying 4K discs or a 4K player (lol)

8k TVs out now so maybe worth to wait a bit longer-good deal-thanks!

Would buy, but not even got a 4K TV yet, been looking to buy for about 18 months :D

Im batman

Not to mention much higher bit rate. Arguably, resolution is one of the least important factors of quality.

I’d say it’s more important to check individual reviews rather than a list of what is real 4K or not. Agreed it can be mis sold but the addition of HDR can be a big change

I'll just leave this here: Real or Fake 4K. Everest is fake 4K. https://4kmedia.org/real-or-fake-4k/ Yet another AV industry mis-selling scam. First fake HDR TVs with low contrast 8 bit panels, now this: fake 4K content that's been upscaled. I couldn't believe it when, after recently researching and buying a good 4K TV, I discovered this. Everest, like many movies produced in 3D, was in fact mastered via a 2K workflow. There is no 4K master of this film. You need to check this list carefully before shelling out for UHD discs. With this UHD release, you're getting something which, in resolution (i.e. definition) terms, is no better than a regular Bluray disc. The main advantage of the UHD release will be the addition of HDR. That is not to say that a 2K master cannot exceed a Bluray disc spec. Typically the master will be in 4:4:4 chroma rather than chroma subsampled to 4:2:0. So each pixel will have its own colour information rather than it being averaged across four pixels as is normally the case on Bluray and UHD discs. This encoding method exploits the fact that human retinas have more rod cells (luminance sensing) than cone cells (colour sensing). Consequently a UHD transfer cut from a 4:4:4 FHD master will have better colour definition than a simple upscale, in line with 4:2:0 chroma on UHD. Explanation here: https://www.rtings.com/tv/learn/chroma-subsampling. The luminance data, arguably more important, will be mostly unchanged from the FHD Bluray (they may apply sharpening effects or other processing). Staggeringly, even a visually stunning recent film like Blade Runner 2049 was shot in camera at 3.4K with VFX and post prod done at 4K. These details can be checked on IMDB before you make a UHD purchase: https://www.imdb.com/title/tt1856101/technical?ref_=tt_dt_spec Older movies shot on 35mm film are generally ok as they can continue to be rescanned yielding enhancements up to around 4K. However beware some releases are upscales of the Bluray master scans and are not true 4K re-scans. Basically, high end modern TVs are so good now that the film industry is having to catch up. Most cinemas aren't even HDR capable, and are usually 2K digital projection: https://www.screendaily.com/features/the-resolution-war-is-cinema-falling-behind-home-entertainment-on-innovation/5124023.article

Thanks, ordered

at this price is good and good hdr

Anybody received theirs yet? Ordered on Tuesday.

Why would you go see it if you aren't a marvel fan? And why is it wrong that fans enjoyed it? Its not that you disliked it its the way you said it. imo.

Not for re-sale yet it has a barcode on? Didn't think re-sale items had these but i am clearly wrong haha.

Do you fancy going to watch Captain marvel with me in march?

Let us know if you find them 3Ds :)

Yes. Zoom had one on offer with 5 movies bundled. You could also use an xbox one s or X to play 4k discs but not a ps4.

Not clued up on 4K - I have a 4K Samsung tv but do I need a 4K Blu-ray player also? Usually play DVDs on our PS3 :-D

Definitely! For the actual boxset also never seen it this low. Worth it for the stunning visuals! If my grandparents had a 4K TV I’d be buying this right now for Christmas! (lol)

Heat greatly received 😁 Can’t speak on behalf of other retailers but Amazon’s lowest price for PE2 was £19.59 (today amusingly), and BP2 was £17.99 (£37.58 combined). This set is “usually” £48.59 but has averaged quite a bit higher over the last 12 months (y) 🏼

Woohoo nice 4K UHD!!!

Seen them all apart from one, and wouldn't want to see them again. The one I missed, I wouldn't want to see in the first place.

1 good film lol

No, that's Gods of Egypt

Oh exodus went to cex too...pretty lame

Its the old one. Hasn't aged well though. 3 of these are good...maze runner and independence day went to cex

Love these pure deals . Bring on more 4k

Done! One of my all time favourite movies. £12.98 incl a guardians of the galaxy £2.99 key ring. Hopefully less £2.50 Quidco promo, and £0.20 Quidco cashback.

No, THE GRINCH and HOME ALONE are both crime movies about large scale burglaries.

Grain is from film stock. It's a unique organic character of the format. When the negative is scanned for digital formats it is generally being viewed at a quality far superior to how you originally would have witnessed it at a movie theatre. This is because 35mm prints running through projectors at movie theatre screenings were prints derived from prints derived from the negs, so the quality wasn't great. Grain structure should look absolutely fine on all UHD (unless the transfer has been botched), and the discs should be an accurate representation of the director's original vision. Anyone moaning about grain doesn't understand what film is and what a blessing high definition formats are for true film lovers.

LOL ok u fink dis is a Christmas film... grinch is a Christmas film, Home Alone is a Christmas film.. Die hard is a action film.. Next ur tellin me goodfellas is a christnas film

If by "these two" you mean Solo and Ready Player One, then yeah... not too bad a price. But was replying to the guy who thought that Tomb Raider USED for £15 was cheap.

I've not seen these two titles in any of those offers, and I usually find the 4k discs I get from Cex are in perfect condition as I guess it's typically AV enthusiasts that own 4k discs at the moment.

Naah... Amazon do 2 for £30. So £15 NEW. Loads to choose from. Black Panther, Last Jedi, BR 2049 just on the first screen. I believe HMV do 2 for £30 as well. Can't stretch to buying 2 at a time? Well they also have The Revenant for £12.79, both Indepence Days for around £12, and quite a few more. £15 for USED, especially from CeX where the majority are in a shoddy condition, is too much. Overpriced imho.

For a 4k uhd film yes, they are normally at a ridiculous £25 for a new copy. Yes they are still more expensive even at £15 compared to blurays, but for 4k it's pretty decent.

Great Wall £10, Tomb Raider £15 is cheap? For used?!! Your definition of "cheap" and mine vary greatly.

Can't say for sure but what you might have seen is images that are "upscaled" (sure there's a better word for it) to HDR. Ie someone's taken a normal photo/video and pushed the saturation up super high. The result is usually a horrendous image where even the dullest of colours are almost painfully bright and everything has a really fake and almost cartoony look. True HDR is often a lot more subtle but a really great effect (imo). It should work so that things that are actually bright and colourful really stand out. It's not always done well, but I personally think it looks spectacular when done properly.

I agree. Looks better but not so much that you would way out for a tv and player. However the 4K PS4 games do look epic

No disrespect to OP but this isn’t that great of a deal to be honest - I’ve picked up kingsman for £6, Deadpool for £8, & Logan for £10 since collecting 4K Blu Rays :p I guess Instore price would be a lot more so I’ll give you heat for that anyway! (y)

Not keen on Logan

I probably haven't seen great HDR, but I really hate what I have seen. Is HDR supposed to make films looks like they were filmed on video? Looks horrible.

Most ridiculous comment of today .Comedy definitely not for you

Ahhh, reminds me of the time I went up Everest with Bear Grills, Scott of Antarctic, Benedict Allen and Steve Irwin. Great laugh, we did it backwards, naked on our hands and knees, and camped at the top with a few tinnies. No reason to tell you this, just to make you feel unworthy, I did the London marathon twice when I got back that day, too.

Everest is one of those movies you'll watch once or twice and that's it. It's not a bad movie. It's just so grim and depressing lol

Yeah its £4.99 from 365games a lot (xbite still) which is crazy but still good price. I feel everest and planet earth ii 4k are owned by more people than own 4k tvs at this point :)

This often drops to £5 but I’ll give you heat anyway :p

How it is for gaming

And Topcashback are offering 8% on Co-op TV 's over a grand.

IPS and edge lit so black levels are grey and cloudy. Good size for the price though. And nothing wrong with Android os if you disable youview

Morion flow 800hz? What’s this

Where was you looking? I’ve seen lots of good reviews..
