I didn't make the comparison.
A completely pointless comparison when the Arrow version isn't even out, unless the screenshot from the BU disc is also from a youtube video.

Even though they compared with the youtube video, which really isn´t fair, you can still tell that the BU version is way to warm in the colors. And you can also see that the BU version is cropped and a bit windowboxed.

That's true. The colours are a lot better on the Arrow version.

That is because the BU was in 2.35:1 and Arrow's is in 2.39:1 (original aspect ratio). The exact same thing happend with The House by the Cemetery.

Oddly enough that's how I always unofficially think of that film. The last shot of ZFE ties in quite nicely as a prequel to Dawn of the Dead

Looks stunning to me, but then a HD video on YouTube on a mobile phone is going to look pretty good whatever. Doesn't look excessively grainy I notice. Hope that's the case.

Filmgrain isn´t noticable on youtube cause of the heavy compression, which blurs the smallest finedetails like that, even in 1080p. Hopefully no DNR was used. Would be great if we could also get some uncompressed screenshots in 1920x1080, like we got of Demons
