What's on your guys' list of movies that are worth having on 4K? I mean not just entertaining, but are visually stunning.

I haven't watched them on 4K yet, but Mad Max: Fury Road and Blade Runner 2049 are on my to-watch list.

@rage2 , I know you're gonna have a pretty comprehensive list.

I watched mad max fury road on the plane last night on one of those premium westjet seats with the bigger screen (albeit prob not 4k) I dont get why @ZenOps likes this movie, got to be the shittest movie I've watched during the pandemic. Also watched Endgame finally, I can imagine that would be awesome at 4k.

C'mon, it won a few awards. Sure it wasn't best picture (not sure why not) but at least some critics liked it.

The sand hurricane was epic for effects though.

Fury Road was probably the best action movie of the last decade.

Sounds like nzwasp watched Mad Max: Fury Road, but he didn't witness it, shiny and chrome.

Im not debating the action - there was plenty of that. The storyline seemed weak.

This thread reminded me of when LED tv's and digital broadcast became a thing. The lower def of older tech hid a lot of the lighting problems on sets, it took a while for the production crews to up their game when they introduced higher resolution equipment on the production and broadcast side. For the first bit of having that tech, on TV, you could see all sorts of shadows of things like Boom microphones, scaffolding etc, and the odd glimpses of the production staff in reflections, that lower resolution helped hide.
The makeup has had to improve as well, initially, it looked so thick that you could see what looked like spatula marks on peoples faces and particles of it in their hairlines.
We found we were watching the background more for production errors rather than watching the story, but production has adapted so sloppiness doesn't stand out so much anymore.

Agree!
I was an early adopter and remember watching CSI Miami and thinking David Caruso looked hilarious!
