That's just what the British think HD looks like, they're still using televisions from the 80s and haven't realized the first world has things like LCD screens, toothpaste or clocks you can put on your wrist so you haven't got to go look at a big tower whenever you need the time

great thread dude

Are you ranting on the movie or are you saying that 720p isn't HD?

as i guy that obtained a bluray copy, the quality was noticeably bad for a 1080p film

i think it was intentionally grainy

480 is high def too

befre HD came out, everybody watched tv in 240p

Wasn't this movie shot with a camcorder or something?

>not realising that the lo-fi aesthetic is intentional, and wholly kino

should i watch 28 weeks later?

i enjoyed 28 days later, but danny boyle wasn't involved in the sequel. just some unheard of directors and writers

and i don't particularly like Jeremy Renner

It was shot on a digital camcorder in 2001, there was no chance it was ever going to look good.

Oddly enough they broke out a 35mm Arriflex for the final scene though

480p is standard definition

Does this look like HD?

the early digital look of 28 days later is 100% soul

youtu.be/jl8TwHGSlws

terrible. looks like a student film.

It was shot on a an early digital camera before they had high definition so the film is eternally at 480p quality.

Yes, you should.
Its more action oriented than the first and feels bigger budget, but for a sequel its great.
The intro is fantastic.
Robert Carlyle makes up for Jeremy Renner

Why are you seething?

>shot on sd camera
>expects HD quality

This movie was basically made as an experiment because Danny Boyle wanted to work with DP Anthony Dod Mantle who was one of the first guys to experiment with using digital video to make films with his work in the Dogme-95 movement. The movie was written with the intention of being shot on digital, which evidently wasn't as developed as it is now. Boyle said that the scenes where he's walking around wouldn't have worked with unwieldy film cameras because they could only stop traffic for short periods and it was easier for them to set up multiple digital cameras in places heavier film cameras couldn't reach.
I haven't seen the movie in a while, so I won't say whether the use of digital works stylistically as well as it does in other stuff like Marebito or Lars Von Trier movies, but it wasn't just a choice made out of laziness; in the documentary Side by Side Boyle talks about how the whole project started from the idea of making a major film on digital.

No it doesn't, but that was a conscious choice by the filmmaker and a byproduct of using a digital hand cam.
I don't like it more than you do.
Its sad to think that it will never look good.

Adds to the atmosphere.

Do all bongs really do this!?

It detracts from the quality. Had to turn it off after 10 mins. I read the plot afterwards and it's really such a shame because it sounded interesting. I didn't finish it though.
The sequel was okay.

im still impressed by the scene
imagine the amount of fucking shit you'd have to do to close down that bridge for a day

That looks like shot on shitteo

God, London is such a repellent fucking SHITHOLE just seeing it makes me irrationally angry. I would be happy if it was just deserted one day. I've been there 4 times in my life and each time it was because of the airports or for some administrative shit that can only be done in London and nowhere else in the UK, it is so filthy and sprawling and fuckhuge yet it feels like there's absolutely nothing of value. You see rich fuckers who probably have never left London in their life and didn't earn a penny of their wealth, mixed with millions of friendly yet spiteful immigrants who hate the UK and always talk about how better their homeland is. It's all overpriced, overcrowded, ugly, designed to keep you and the lowly scum moving and never in one place for longer than is profitable. Some of the people are nice and good looking but you can tell they are either just rich folk or visiting from the countryside. Fuck this place.

faggot

Croatia

yh londons gross

Most people just see the 720p/1080p/4k label and assume it is HD.

My apologise. When ever see someone hate the quality, I think of YMS. Sorry lad.

thats one of the busiest roads in london, plus all the shit you'd have to do just to be allowed to film there without interference from people

it doesn't matter if it's the busiest street in the world. If you fucking close it, people aren't going to drive on it. It doesn't take a genius IQ to figure out

Are you fucking retarded?

nigger it's westminster fucking bridge

Funny, I don't remember this movie looking bad when I saw it as a kid

Are you? Put down one orange cone in the middle street and everyone will drive the other way. It doesn't fucking matter which street.

fuck you Boyle stop shitposting your old movies this is the third day in row

and if you close westminster fucking bridge, then people aren't going to drive on westminster fucking bridge you absolute mongoloid

The UK is 20-30 years behind in film production and camera technology. You would know this if you ever watched Doctor Who

>m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-mmmmuuuh definishun!!!!!
You zoomers have literally no sense of aesthetic.

>yup. look at that grainy quality. can't see a thing.

You have no taste.

There's a shark movie called Open Water that was also shot with digital, looks way cheaper than I remember.

720p is literally HD

Poor zoomzoom has no sense of aesthetic! What a waste of a generation.

you can upscale a 2 megapixel video recorded with a flip phone from 2003 to 4k, it doesn't mean it will look good. Video has to have the resolution to support HD in order to look HD otherwise you're just spinning wheels

have a bowel movement in yer pants

dumb fuck. 720p is literally HD.

what the heck I hate bongs now

Intradasting. ty

Fuck off

Not entirely. The police are issued high-capacity assault televisions used for closely monitoring the population through CCTV. The police tellies are HD so the constabulary can read lips for hatespeech stings and collect data on how to not deal with stabbings and acid attacks.

digital. It was innovative at the time.

higher resolution doesn't mean a better movie
most 35mm stuff looks blurry and grainy af, and will never look as sharp as native 8K, but you gotta love it and understand it for what it is
There's also AI upscaling, which does a great job at fooling humans, but what would be the point of doing that, really?

Attached: upscale.jpg (2809x1333, 505K)

Upscale looks shit tier

Looks like a Harry Potter fan film you'd see on Youtube

kek

old, dumb scale was very limited
new AI one is virtually indistinguishable from the real thing, unless you've got access to some HD source to meticulously compare them

digital is shit

Yeah I literally shot a movie on the same Cannon. I almost can’t watch it now.

you guys think the sequel will be any good?

Huh?
Are they making 28 months later?

the only shot in the whole movie that looks HD is the final scene
its a design choice and it works really well

I like the museums and the BFI

>call something High/Super/Ultra etc.

What are they gonna call the really ultra stuff then?

kino

Just put NEO in front of it

Marketing teams don't think ahead and do not give a shit. Probably will just start using the image width, 4k, 8k, 16k, until the numbers get too hard for retard masses to remember and they'll call 128k "HIGH DEFINITION"
Still pisses me off that they went from using pixel height to pixel width just for marketing reasons. It's like ISPs using bits so the number is bigger, even though in every other scenario people measure things in bytes.

retard

The human eye can't see past 4k.

00s had a lot of filmmakers falling for the digital meme in its early stages

in the future, only collateral will be remembered, because this is the only movie that doesn't look like absolute garbage.

Remember when consoles had bits? Never heard about it before the 8 bit era and never mentioned since the 64 bit era. What happened? Were there ever 1 and 2 bit consoles? Are the PS4 era consoles 1024 bit or more?

That's referring to the architecture of the CPU which is one of the few things actually measured in bits. Modern processors are still 64 bit, that's not where improved performance came from after that. Doubt there were consoles below 8 bits, don't know about computers in general.

When 4K+ becomes the standard in the next few years, how many other films will look like shit because they were recorded on 2K or less?

>people talking shit about the Canon XL1

Bunch of zoomers, the lot of you. Don't get me wrong, it's no DVX100 for sure, but the ability to shoot mini DV at that price range with the ability to throw EF lenses on it was fucking amazing. Panasonic still shits on Canon in the video world even to this day, though. They should have shot the movie on the DVX100, gods that was a real camera.

You can only see 1080 pixels at a time

>HDCAM (1080p/24) (source format) (matted to 2.39: 1)


Finna fuckin BARF


Who in the fuck let that hack shoot on anything but 35 or 70, someone should have fucking stopped him. Shot on fucking Panny Primos also, the most overrated, abberation ridden, focus breathing pieces of fuck that ever shot movies.

Someone should have slapped his garbage in an demanded to shoot with a ARRI 35 mil and a set of spherical Zeiss or Leica primes.

Those movies were fucked from top to bottom.

>most 35mm stuff looks blurry and grainy af, and will never look as sharp as native 8K
why are you saying this as if there is ANYTHING in native 8k at the moment? 35mm film looks generally sharp as hell if it was filmed correctly, and resolves to about 4k. You need 4k digital to match 35mm sharpness at its best, and most movies don't even offer that nowadays. Seriously, look up 4kmedia.org/real-or-fake-4k/

londons airport was probably the worst airport ive been through except for mexico city's

Georges largest reason for filming in digital was being able to review and edit on the fly while directing. I'm sure that when it was demonstrated for him he picked the camera that allowed the fastest rendering and editing times. I bet someone showed him how long it'd take to edit a higher resolution video in real time and he wanted nothing to do with it

>Someone should have slapped his garbage in an demanded to shoot with a ARRI 35 mil and a set of spherical Zeiss or Leica primes.

Leica didn't start manufacturing cine lenses until this decade you stupid cunt

>you need a cine lens to shoot video
kill yourself

Leica has been making lenses that were highly regarded cinema lenses since before you or I were ever born. Don't think that because it isn't in some modern cinema housing with a fat focus throw that it isn't suitable or desirable to shoot video with you accousic dill-wallace.

Also made shooting in the hot desert much easier

This.
The UK still has official support for black and white television and some people still actually pay the TV license to watch in black and white.

Attached: black_and_white_2449409b.png (620x740, 70K)

wrong. digital is based

digital is based for HDR, low-light shooting. Shit for everything else.

But that's wrong, based retard.

That new 70mm sensor ARRI digital camera is pretty based looking, but those jews at Zeiss are the only ones that makes lenses for it right now. I think they shot that House of Haunted Hill Netflix show with it, they were able to get some really cool super wide indoor shots with that gigantic sensor.

That's right. Does this faggot idiot realize that there are like 275 bridges in london that all go from one side of the river to the other that people can take instead if Westminster Bridge is closed for a few hours?

It's not like the Bay Bridge where literally millions of people need cross ebery day to commute across cities.

Fucking this, god I swear the board is filled low IQ ADHD faggots.

>13,000 people out of 25 million
wow, that's like, fuck all.

you can't see shit in the whole fucking movie

>there is ANYTHING in native 8k at the moment?
10 years ago there were already 64MP sensors, which is 2 times the resolution of 8k
also, don't get fooled by theoretical, ideal numbers: 35mm usually looks like shit, and barely solves to 2k, unless you care for the physical grain noise, instead of the actual picture quality

kek

please stop spreading this meme. 35mm is basically 4k, 70mm even more at 8k. if a film is shot well and lit correctly and the negative is properly stored and not damaged it will look infinitely better than a 4k digital film.

>bru-lay's look amazing guys!!!

Attached: 02-1.jpg (1920x1080, 343K)

The fact that the government still supports this boomer behavior is telling

>35mm is basically 4k, 70mm even more at 8k.

Then why was 16mm rarely considered adequate for TV in the US? The difference between 16mm and 35mm was always plain even when viewed on VHS.

>pay for black and white license
>watch on colour tv anyway
They'd never expect it

I saw them filming this driving to a friends place they shot it all at 6 in the morning on a Sunday barely anyone around

gaffes on you m8, our ticky tocky bing bongs make a bong so we get to know the time every hour without even lookin

you wouldn't know it's upscale if he didn't tell you dipshit

None because 4k doesn't make a lick of difference.

>boomer
i think you mean silent or greatest gen behavior

There were 4bit processors but never in a console with one as far I know of

>Yes, you should.
>should i watch 28 weeks later?

I only saw 28 weeks later and thought it was dumb as dirt. Seriously, you find an infected person and leave her in the dark with no guard? Your plan if the zombie virus returns is to lock everyone in the basement and turn out the lights?

D-Do bongs really do this?! Why?

The CPUs that went to the moon with the Apollo missions were 4 bit. They were a miracle of technology at the time.

28 days later was shot with a low cost semi-pro camcorder using the consumer DV videotape format. It was recorded in PAL 576i format, except for the last scene.

HD did exist at this point but the gear was large and unwieldy. It ran at 60 hz, so didn't print to film very well.

Why does Netflix say a certain show is in 4K and yet I see a shitton of grain on my 4K Sony Bravia? Was I tricked?

>lmao just close the bridge it’s not like anybody will ask any questions including the police and city council and the thousands of people that use the bridge each day just close the bridge down no questions asked lol

Extremely Based

Attack of the clones was shot at a resolution of 1440 x 810. Full 2k cameras didn't exist yet. Anamorphic lenses did not work on the camera they were using, so to produce the 2.39:1 aspect ratio, they matted the 1080p down to 810p.

Spy Kids 2 used the same camera without the matting. (kept the 16:9 ratio) With the added detail, it looked much better.

Bro London has nothing worth of value except for Museums and Stadiums. I know plenty of my friends who've never been to London and never want to and we're all born and bred British.

Was the show shot on film? If the show was "Monty Python and the Holy Grail" it will look grainy as hell because it was shot on cloudy days in Scotland with the wrong film stock.

Is it worse than Paris? I was there last time in 2012. and it still looked fine. A lot of negros, but it had a sort of charm to it.

No, it’s new shows like Daredvil

Yes it's like going back to stone ages when you visit there.

If your internet was too slow, the picture would look soft, not grainy. I haven't watched Daredevil. Maybe the producers just like the grain. (Your pic is grainy too.) Are all the programs grainy?

It depends on what you're watching it on, too -- PC vs a game console or Roku box, other things tend to look better than PC from what I've seen.

Then there are the quality options on the account that you can set, also
