Read the reviews and this also suffers from overuse of DNR resulting in close up shots of actors looking like wax figures. 😖
Reserving judgement is not something the internet does. Ever.

Still the best novel to film adaptation to date.

Let's hope Amazon doesn't screw up the new series.

I got it for $80, and after watching them in 4k it was COMPLETELY worth it. If you have a good 4k TV and a good sound system, it is an incredible experience watching these.

I thought the movies looked phenomenal. But my tv is also not a high end one, I'm using a TCL 6-Series from 2018.

I will say though, for me personally, the Lord of the Rings movies were never ones where I associated with or recall having noticeable film grain, so the DNR doesn't bother me. It's early 90s films (and earlier) where I start caring that they preserve the film grain.

In my opinion, the only flaws with this set are a few actual visual artifacts that occurred due to the DNR process. And I didn't even notice them, I had to watch a youtube video where they were pointed out specifically.

As far as I can tell this doesn't include The Appendices that are included in the BluRay EE set, which is disappointing and makes me think they'll release yet another version of this in the future.

Do these versions support atmos? For some awful reason few sites mention this in the descriptions or specs.

What's a decent 4k player to play these discs? I don't need a lot of bells and whistles.

It's not as bad as the original Predator's use of DNR but it is there unfortunately. I hope we get a new 4K transfer by the time the 25th anniversary hits. 😑

Select pick up at Amazon hub or locker.
Put promo code 10PICKUPCODE
Get an additional $10 off of this.

Worked for me. Code is targeted. YMMV….

I would agree, it was far and few between.
It's one of the few movies that received a worthy upgrade especially on the audio side.
That said the biggest benefactor would be a good display and a proper object based setup.
With a good upscaling 4K player you could get away with the BD EE version since they were reference quality on its own IMO.

Yes they did get a object based soundtrack upgrade.
It is one of the few that is reference quality on a proper setup.

I would suggest the Panasonic 420, when it goes on sale for $150.

You lose DV but the HDR processing is so good the difference isn't significant.

What you gain is all your other disc get a significant PQ upgrade because of its great upscaling.
