Fingers crossed that The Abyss 35 mm to 4K transfer will look great. I saw the Titanic 4K on streaming and it does look great.
Still waiting for 4K on TRON Legacy and Kingdom of Heaven. Those bastards making us wait.

Tron: Ares is slated for 25, so presumably some time leading up to that we could finally see a remaster of Legacy. IF Ares even happens, since they haven't even started filming.Fingers crossed that The Abyss 35 mm to 4K transfer will look great. I saw the Titanic 4K on streaming and it does look great.

I really enjoyed Abyss, I will pick up the 4K when it releases.
PREY 4K releases Oct 3
I might have to pick that one up too. *Edit - I just preordered it.

I think Tron 4k will be coming. Disney looks to be taking a giant leap forward with physical media. They are actually releasing Disney+ shows on physical media now. Never thought that would happen! I also saw in some online article that they are going to invest more in physical media. The numbers for physical disc sales continue to meet and exceed expectations for studios. Since Disney has a very large movie/show library plus the entire Fox movie library, they can make hundreds of millions off of physical. They have a vault full of content that needs to be opened and released!Fingers crossed that The Abyss 35 mm to 4K transfer will look great. I saw the Titanic 4K on streaming and it does look great.

Oh good. I'm just surprised they didn't hire Joseph Kosinski (TRON Legacy, Top Gun Maverick), especially since Kosinski originally wanted to do Ares.

Don't think Kosinski had any availability to make the next Tron. He's currently making a movie titled "Chariot". Action, sci-fi, thriller. It's currently in development. The director they got instead Joachim Ronning did Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead men tell no tales and Maleficent: mistress of Evil. Some smaller movies as well. I'm guessing his budget will be somewhere in the ball park of $100-$150 million.

Yeah I don’t like this Ronning guy’s credentials/resume.
Typical Disney move- make money fast and not wait for Kosinski who really wanted to do Ares. I think he even wrote a script for Ares after Legacy.
Kosinski is awesome.
In other news, I heard “Sicario 3” is in production (written by Taylor Sheridan, my favorite writer). I will watch anything that Taylor Sheridan writes/directs).

TRON Legacy already has an awesome DTS-HD MA soundtrack. So even if they didn’t change the ST, it would still be awesome. But you’re thinking leave it to Disney to screw it up?

That soundtrack is indeed great but I’m skeptical that Disney will improve it, quite the opposite.

I saw the news on Sicario 3. Been waiting for some good news for a while. I know Sheridan wrote 1&2 but didn't hear if he was officially attached to the 3rd one. That would be great if he was writing it. I also wouldn't mind if they brought back the guy who did #2 to direct the 3rd one. Obviously we will not be getting Denis V.

True. Just hope Disney will be lazy with the ST and keep it exactly the way it is.
Just transfer the movie that was shot with the digital cameras to 4K and call it a day.
They don’t have to do much since the original master is already digital.

From the reviews of Loki season 1 on 4k. So far, everybody has been saying the sound quality is really good. They have all been blown away that this is coming from Disney. Maybe, and I mean that in the smallest sense, maybe Disney is finally listening to all the complaints about their sound quality. hahaha

I haven’t heard about the director for “Sicario Capos”, but I read that Taylor Sheridan already wrote the screenplay for it. All they need to do is have one of Sheridan’s directors from one of his TV series direct.

Good! She should've been fired years ago. But her contract is up after this year or next. So they just won't extend her. Maybe she'll quietly leave. Hahaha.I heard they demoted Kathleen Kennedy, so might have fired bunch of screwups too.

I am very interested in the new movie "The Creator" because they used only an entry level 4K digital camera from Sony FX3!!!!
Yet, I've heard some people say this movie looks like it cost $300 million to make!

I'll see "The Creator" on streaming first, then UHD-BD.
But just thinking how can they make it look awesome if they used a Sony FX3 camera? When I Googled the FX3, it's like $4K!
No way they used a $4K camera to shoot this movie. Must be a different FX3.
When I Googled the Lenses used (Kowa Cine Prominar), I get anywhere from $180K to $1K. So there must be different versions for professional vs consumers.

So this person that I follow who has the inside track into every major physical disc release, who also gets to attend some awesome movie showings, was able to be at the James Cameron Abyss and I guess Aliens 4k presentations. He came away saying that The Abyss is not going to make everybody happy.
he points out
1. New color timing/Grade- it's not bad or good just meh
2. Completely scrubbed all grain (not T2 bad but C'mon!)
3. VFX doesn't hold up
Those are things he said as of now.
