4K = more than meets the eye?
I probably watched this movie more than any. I still occasionally turn it on. Such a good movie.
You've got the touch!
You've got the poweeer!

As I get older, I relate more and more to Ultra Magnus: "I can't deal with that now!"

I was 7 when this film came out and I didn't cry.Plus in canon he no longer dead he came back to life.You guys need to get over this and grow up.
yeah in real life nobody comes back and they only did that because they got so much flak for killing Prime and their ratings tanked. Heck about a year later the show got cancelled because without Prime it was like watching the office without michael scott!

I can clearly remember sitting in the theater with my friend and the moment Spike said "oh shit!", my friend and I just turned and looked at each other, both wide-eyed. I can imagine all the parents sitting in the same theater with their kids must have all grimaced at that very moment. Haha

Is this showing up as 4K for anyone? The 35th anniversary edition was released in 4K on Blu-Ray, not the 30th. When I click through the Slickdeals link above, it just takes me to the version I already own (ie, not 4K).

Searching iTunes, it looks like it treats both editions as the same film, but it wants me to pay to get the 4K 35th anniversary edition, which is unusual for iTunes.

Just curious if there is anything special about the "30th anniversary edition" that would have been released in 2016? I think I saw a 35th anniversary edition at some point but I don't know if it is just rebranded every 5 years lol

I doubt even 4k could do much for the visual fidelity of this movie. Good movie, but resolution can't do much for this type of media.

I made the mistake of watching this as a special release in the theaters a few years back. When I was 8 I loved the music but now I'm a grumpy old man and while watching it was like "damn turn it down". It just didn't have the same vibe to me.
Not sure why you got so many thumbs down. At 47, I tried watching a few G1 episodes this week. Boy, they did not age well. Point blank misses with their laser guns - worse than storm troopers. The plots are so thin and animation so bad.

That said, the Netflix TF anime is excellent.
