I've owned this on every format since it's release (I've still to compare the Second Sight disc) and this release is the best it's going to get.  |
I understand what you are saying Reaps but Dog Soldiers isn't a good example. The massive jump in clarity is down to the fact the new 4K scan is from the recently found original camera negative whilst all the previous releases have been bog-standard prints. You were bound to get a massive jump in clarity even if it had been a BR-only release.
I do understand the desire for UHDs. However, if I was to upgrade my collection every time one was issued I'd have no money for releases of films I'd never seen before. If there are others like me but are inclined towards the UHD upgrades then that has to hit sales of more obsure titles doesn't it?
