[Deleted member 2457]

Just asked my sister for it for Xmas.

Anyone has plans to order too?

I will buy the box set but not on 4k but on blu-ray as I would of thought both formats would look the same as they both old films now so you will get a bit of grain in the picture .

The picture on them is clean (although the first one doesn’t look as good). Unless grain is used intentionally, it usually appears on darker scenes where the camera settings are correct

Most definitely getting. Very excited 🙂

Yes mate, I am. Got a deal. 33.99 from Zavvi. Otherwise, I would not have bothered.
Also, I set up a new 4k projector at home yesterday, so two good reasons to get.

I can't find the sound mix that will be used.

I have read that they are being mastered in 4k.

You've got the "upscaling" concept all wrong. All blu ray discs are upscaled to 4K on a 4K TV regardless of the blu ray player you use. Upscaling does not mean the quality is improved somehow; it merely quadruples the pixels to fill a 1080p picture on a 4K screen by using an algorithm. All 4K TVs do that anyway.

Has anyone got it yet? What’s it like? Ta

I have it, just watched part of it today.

Looks and sounds good so far.

Cheers! Can’t wait now.

No, I'm waiting for the 8k version!

NAH! not really, I'm a very late adopter of new technology, I think this is a box set I could go for, although I might have to upgrade to a 4k TV first though. See, I told you I was a late adopter *blum3*

My sister couldn’t get it, so I have just ordered it on Amazon Prime and am getting it tomorrow now.

I'm yet to buy a 4k blu ray player, which am looking forward to buy Jan nxt year. Still I will be getting the 4k trilogy.

 

[Deleted member 2457]

Oh boy, these are excellent! Jackpot. They look so good. The detail and colour is amazing.

I’ll add it to my collection at some point, but the trilogy isn’t really much of a regular watch for me, unlike many other films. Whilst I like many aspects of the whole story, watching them feels hurried, like you’re watching highlights, rather than a story that is allowed to flow at a natural pace.

Don't really get that at all. I find the film's overly long and lumbering at points but then no film is perfect.
I'm also weird in the I prefer dk rises to batman begins and that to dark knight.

i purchased it few days ago at hmv along with dunkirk, get out and prometheus

.... AND YET, My Sony blu--ray player states as to HOW it is future-proof for 4K and as to How it would be able to show blu-ray as 4k ?

?

Did Sony kid me on then ?

Yes. All marketing blurb which confused most consumers.

I find them overly long as well, but there’s just too much info being crammed into the time available, and it feels rushed.

Should've got Peter Jackson to direct them then. He could have turned each individual movie into a trilogy .... Yawn

For me, TDK is one of the best films of all time. Heath Ledger was brilliant!
