All eight Harry Potter films on Ultra HD Blu-ray feature DTS:X audio, which replicates and conveys the fluid movement of sound to create a richer experience than previously possible by moving sound to precisely where the mixer placed it. A hallmark of DTS:X immersive audio technology is its ability to adapt to the speaker layout to best fit the individual viewing space by seamlessly transporting sound to and through specific locations within the viewing environment - in front of, behind, above and beside the audience.Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix, Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince, Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows – Part 1, and Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows- Part 2will be available on March 28 on Ultra HD Blu-ray Combo Pack for $44.95 SRP each, and feature an Ultra HD Blu-ray disc with the feature film in 4K with HDR, a Blu-ray disc with the feature film and special features in HD, and a Digital HD* version of the feature film.

Agreed. The video transfers of the earlier movies are pretty rough. Even the reference-quality at-the-time-of-its-release Prisoner of Askaban looks muddy and indistinct by today's standards.

Will the extended editions of PS and CoS be included? 1. Because maybe the first four films need more restoration work since they are older. 11 hours ago, Daniel Clamp said: Will these be new 4K scans or just fake upscales? I really think these will be new 4K scans. They can't release UHD with upscales for these movies! There will be public outrage! But as I said before, i hope the regular blurays too are coming from the 4K scans, because I think there might be some examples of releases where the UHD was a new restoration and the regular Bluray in the bundle was an older transfer.

Koray Savas 2,251 Posted July 18, 2017 Share Posted July 18, 2017 Criterion announces October 2017 releases. Most notable, of course, being Barry Lyndon and Fire Walk With Me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Naïve Old Fart 9,515 Posted July 18, 2017 Share Posted July 18, 2017 Ooh, yes! BARRY LYNDON as a single release, and in 5.1! Yes, I know the sound is not authentic, so let's hope they have the original audio, as well? Having John Alcott's finest work for the cinema, in your Blu collection, is like having a rare diamond in your jewellery collection. Priceless.

A24 4,331 Posted July 18, 2017 Share Posted July 18, 2017 You can opt for 5.1 but the Blu-ray will have the original sound track. I wonder about the aspect ratio ... Anyway, it's Criterion and they have an 'America First' policy (R1 only). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Naïve Old Fart 9,515 Posted July 18, 2017 Share Posted July 18, 2017 What exactly is this film's aspect ratio? I've always thought it's 1.66. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Barnald 365 Posted July 18, 2017 Share Posted July 18, 2017 Arrow's summer sale begins tomorrow. A few things I need to pick up. As for Criterion's announcements, excited about Barry Lyndon and Vampyr. Fire Walk with Me seems pointless. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unlucky Bastard 7,782 Posted September 9, 2017 Share Posted September 9, 2017 Anyone else bought any UHD discs? I don't have a player or 4K TV yet, so I'm just buying them now to future proof myself if I do get the gear eventually. The ones I have are: Batman v Superman Ghostbusters Ghostbusters II Independence Day Pacific Rim Unforgiven I'd like to get Blade Runner, E.T. and CE3K too.
