Might be the first time the original has been on sale in 4K? Origins has been $18 before. Guessing some early Memorial Day sales so might go lower via iTunes. Not bad though.

I'm still rocking a 1080p tv but am looking to ugrade soon to a 4K QLED (bottom of the barrel Vizio) but how is the picture quality on these older movies when upscaled to 4K? is there really a difference? Will you be able to spot stunt men and women now on a 4k 65" TV? Does it just mean it's not grainy? Does it depend on the TV on how good it upscales?

Every 4K movie is different. There's no standard. It depends on what the people working on the upgrade are able to do with what they're given to work with. Not every movie can be upgraded as well as another. The age of a movie doesn't matter nearly as much as you'd think. The Ten Commandments looks amazing in 4K. Meanwhile, I have movies from the last year or two that are barely an upgrade from 1080p.

Sometimes they'll be completely grain free, other times, they'll still be grainy. However, what's even more important than the increase in resolution, or lack of film grain, is HDR (high dynamic range). When done right, it's a night and day difference from 1080p to 4K. Like The Lord of the Rings trilogy. Holy crap. Those are a whole new level of vibrant in HDR. Vudu let's you switch back and forth between HDX (1080p no HDR) and UHD. That way you can easily compare. The difference can't be oversold. The color pallet is so muted in the original versions of the movies.

HDR/Dolby Vision increases brightness and makes colors pop like never before and makes the contrast dramatically better. I've only watched a few X-Men movies in 4K, but they looked really good. Days of Future Past is amazing with HDR.

It's a shame the first trilogy comes with X3, but at least the second trilogy will let me pretend Dark Phoenix never happened.

As the other reply said, it mainly depends on how good of a source the original was and if it was maintained/provided to the team doing the 4K release. Even old film can be converted with incredible quality if the original source was well maintained. What tends to look the worst (IMHO) are movies from when CGI first started becoming popular.

TV quality will also make a difference (main impacts are brightness & contrast); if you're going with an entry Vizio, don't expect great HDR even if the movie supports it.

Wish they'd just put First Class and Days of Future Past up for $5 each, because apocalypse is such a shit movie I will never watch it again. Still wishing for my two hours of life back having to have watched it in the theatre.

I do agree with you, but another way to look at it is if this person hasn't seen anything better than an entry level Vizio QLED, or at least hasn't really spent time with a better TV, besides a quick glance at Best Buy, then it'll still look amazing to them.

Back when I had my first 4K TV, I just had one of those low-end 300 nit $350 LG LEDs, but it still had HDR and I was blown away. Until I spent time with an actual good TV (my friend bought a C9 OLED). Then it was extremely hard for me to go back to mine. I eventually bought a C2 OLED, but until I had something better to compare it to, I thought my cheap TV looked great. It was certainly better than not having HDR.
