How the fuck does that account to being a contrarian?
Do you think any book would be better if it was 5 thousand pages long? Any film would be better if it's 320 hours long? A song being one day long?

You guys realize that the early DVD era was famous for its red/purple tint push right? (The original first season of TNG, Mad Max, etc.)
A lot of the examples posted so far in this thread are remasters that went back to the negative and got a proper color grade.
Easton Young
I never got this. Jackson admitted to it being intentional but he didn't touch the other 2 movies.
Justin Miller
Can aussies confirm which one is more accurate?
Alexander Allen
>deserts look like piss
Okay, I will trust an expert like you.
Julian Long
This has nothing to do with BR tho. They just went too far and removed the grain. Also the image is cherry-picked. Even that version looks way better than the DVD. By now there is a new transfer to BR and it's stellar.
Joshua Perry
He touched 2 & 3 in production already and wanted 1 to be in tone with the later movies.
Nathan Thompson
I'm not sure which one to go for here.
The top is the original Bluray master where the Watchowisky siblings went back and changed the color timings to match the real world and matrix of the sequels.
The bottom is the new 4k color timing that uses the original color timings from 1999.
Logan Ramirez

Jackson Young
Fellowship came out right at the time digital color grades took off. Jackson got very little time to tinker with it and it shows when you see TTT and ROTK.
The extended changes were him going back and giving it a full pass like the other 2. (Note: he very intentionally left the theatrical as is because he didn't want to pull a Lucas and make the originals as presented in theaters unavailable.)
Evan Baker
Can confirm.
I was at Q&A with him and he flat out said he didn't like the original Council of Elrond scene turning out almost neon. The Extended color timing was partly done to correct this.

The Blu-Ray transfers of Disney's Xerox-era movies are absolute sin. They tried to smudge out the pencil lines to make them look like their other movies and it looks like absolute ass. The xerox era Disney movies are beautiful in their own way, and we get to see the original artwork rather than the inker's best approximation of it. Disney's higher ups despise the look of pencil marks though and as a result they hate that era of their back catalog.

This is by far the worst blu ray release ever made. It had some alright color correction; but they forced 4:3 footage men risked their lives to film into being 16:9
It's fucking awful. Nothing you post will be worse than what they did to this

This is factually incorrect. The name comes from the way the technology works -- the discs are read by a 405nm "blue" laser, whereas normal DVDs employ a 650nm "red" laser.

Well, 4K BD is now unless you happen to have access to physical reels of film or some kind of theater harddriver that they use to project. Whether or not the producers fuck up the film by degraining and smoothing is irrelevant to the fact that 100GB or 50GB holds more data that 8.5GB.

Juan Collins
How you her legs.
Anthony Sullivan
It is noise in the end, but it was an inherent part of the process. The most you can hope for is some filtering to remove the harshest noise but try to leave the film looking natural.
Angel Rodriguez
this is why i won't watch lord of the rings or most movies. I have to watch in at least 1080p and all the remasters the directors have fucked with change the colors, I'm not watching "the right version" so It's pointless to see it.
Dominic Cook
The 4k project makes all this shit obsolete if you want the unaltered experience.
Cameron Martinez
In my opinion the only way to watch the original trilogy, a new hope, objectively the best film of ot and the only classic and truly good film, got completely butchered in the special editions, not just in bad color correction, the whole pacing, sound mixing, music, even story is completely wrong
The only film George Lucas improved in special editions (although it also has some things that don't fit) is TXH1138
Jeremiah Butler
4K Star Wars would be nice. Too bad that I happen to enjoy a lot of what Lucas put back in, like more Biggs, more Oola, more Wampa, stuff like that. The best Star Wars for me would be a "choose your additions" where you go through all of the options to turn on or off for your optimal experience, I'd even want to include the dumb Tosche Station Luke.
Lincoln Powell
>4K Star Wars would be nice.
Oh trust me, it is. I just watched it last week.
Joshua Lee
Would be cool, but I dont ever see that happening. I think the best fans could ever hope for would be an ultimate edition of each OT movie, with UHD transfers of each version. But even that is probably more work and legal mumbo-jumbo than Disney is willing to take on. At least right now.
Zachary Rogers
Elijah Peterson
Alexander Myers
it actually works here for the futuristic cyberpunk aesthetic

I don't see why there would be any legal issues now that Disney will acquire the distribution rights to the original trilogy with the Fox buyout.

Are Blu Rays transferred by austists who dont understand what it is to be human?
Elijah Lee
You know which movie needs the proper blu ray treatment?
Any of them with little barefoot white girls.
Asher Bennett
FUCK
Why are they doing this? It's like people that hate the original films are put in charge of transfers
Almost like they do it on purpose so the shit they serve as movies now won't seem so bad

Science Fiction gets a pass for the aesthetic. It makes it more sciency and fictiony

It's usually not the fault of the people doing the transfers, but retard directors and executives.

You're probably right on both counts. It's almost certainly young people doing this who are obsessed with everything looking flat and digital. And Disney probably is following the George Lucas school of revisionism where they "accidentally" fuck something up and then they can say five years later "buy this new version, it doesn't have all the mistakes."
Jackson Johnson

Both transfers look like shit. Top is too red and bottom is too blue.
Here's my take on it.
Charles Brooks
They can at least, eventually, re-release these in a proper format for collectors that keeps the aspect and grain. Like it makes no sense. The Fox and the Hound is perfectly grainy and left natural, then you have the stuff from the 60s and 70s being wiped and smeared.
Daniel Richardson
COLOR CORRECTION WAS A MISTAKE
Somebody should meme a "no color correction was used in any stage of the production of this film" badge
The only use of color correction that may be allowed is pre and during editing but color correction after editing should be punishable by death
Same with despecle, smoothing, denoise, edge-detection and other stupid algorithms that are running movies
Noah Bailey
I would guess that the blu ray is still framed the way the director primarily intended, and the TV broadcast is just open matte. The film was likely shot in 1.85:1 with the intention of cropping it to the wider format for theatrical release. On one hand it's a better compromise since you're not missing any visual information in the TV broadcast, on the other hand it's still not really framed optimally (although it is often shot like this as a "middle ground" with both formats in mind).
This is why TV broadcasts of Pee Wee's Big Adventure have an apparent "goof" where you can see the chain being fed through the bottom of the bike in the shot where he pulls the impossibly long chain out of the compartment. That was cropped out in the original aspect ratio.
There are quite a few famous goofs from open-matte versions of movies. I know Fellowship of the Ring has telegraph poles in some wide shots because they only digitally removed them from the 2.35:1 frame. Also in A Fish Called Wanda there's a scene where John Cleese is supposed to be naked and you can see his pants in the unmatted version.
That, along with Lord of the Rings and many James Cameron films, was shot using Super 35. They shoot for the intended 2.35 aspect ratio, but there is more information on the negative. They simply matte the image to match their intended 2.35 ratio. When they do an HDTV broadcast, it actually opens up a bit more of the negative, but not image that was intended to be seen.
But if the film were shot using anamorphic lenses, then there would be information chopped off the sides of the image in the 16:9 broadcast.

Robert Roberts
No it makes more sense for her to be pink, since that's what girls are. Arnie could be that color, but not Sarah
Xavier Edwards
Color correction is a necessity for digitally shot movies because they're recorded in RAW.
Gavin Gomez
They are also removing gags that Animators put into the films like hidden Mickeys. This hidden Mickey was removed from Ursula's contract when the 2013 blu ray was released.

Indeed.
Dylan Foster
4k on the bottom?
The green tint was added to be more in line with the sequels that were in your face with it, I prefer the subtle look that relied more on the costume and set design to reflect the tone of the scene
Elijah Brown
Bluray is hit or miss. For new movies it's always better but for old movies it depends on how much effort they put in. For example, the Jaws bluray looks absolutely amazing and the Jurassic Park one looks barely better than the DVD.
There's also a problem with bluray making some movies look TOO good. Where you can see cheap effects and make up more clearly.
Luis Perry
The 4K is superior. The vivid colors of the Matrix contrast with the dreary grays of the real world
Isaac Reed

Not really the blu-ray's fault, since those errors were also visible in the cinemas when the films were first shown.

Jack Rivera
99% of the time, yes. Don't pull out your "what if some guy is annoying me by describing all his favorite movies", because of course less would be better then. Make a real argument instead of imaginary scenarios. I always want more megabytes, I always want more chicks on my dick, I always want more money in my wallet, I always want more entertainment in my media.
Carter Phillips
I think that was for the 3-D release
Mason Perez

This is completely dependant on the actual content and whether or not it justifies the size. If you think that something is better just because it's bigger you're a fucking mongoloid.

Blu Ray is still the best way to watch films, despite the autists cherry-picking the few films with shit jobs out of thousands of great restorations.
4k is promising but we are not going to see the amount of titles that Blu got (same as Blu hasn't equaled the amount of DVD titles)
Ryder Sullivan
Not sure which version this is but the Network distributed region 2 Blu-ray is in its original aspect ratio
Mason Barnes

Joseph Barnes
The top is Sergio, the middle is some jackass who mastered the bluray and tried to give it a "modern" look, sometimes this is done with the hope of it getting more sales.
Tyler Wood
i have a few 4k blu rays but i don't own a 4k player, is the change in quality that big? i guess that HDR is where the real appeal comes from, since a well done transfer, with a consistent bit rate and a properly calibrated display, can still give the same results that one can get on a theatre imagewise.
Elijah Butler
He's been obsessed with it since T1 I think. For example he specifically picked out door scenes to be shot in areas with a mercury vapor street lamps just because they had a blue hue.
