That's really not true. They're getting closer to BluRay, but still not there. It would be way too expensive. Even the 4K is encoded with artifacts and dark scenes are no comparison.

Ah, not quite the same plot.. I shoulda said 'John Woo's Hard Boiled and The Killer'.

If you're looking to grab something, this is the best time, won't find them cheaper!

I picked up The Others 4k on the last sale(B&N).
It's a 1:1 transfer with the added object based soundtrack.
It's a really good transfer especially on the AQ side!

I'm still hoping for a 4k Criterion release of Brazil.

It's getting to the point where a lot of streaming is higher quality than their blurays. Shouldn't happen, but it does.

It depends on the quality of content but often BR disc picture upscaled is comparable to 4k streaming.

On the audio side there is no comparison, streaming is significantly inferior.

Seven Samurai preorder is an awesome deal. No Country For Old Men isn't 50% off, but still on sale.
