BvS The BvS Ultimate Cut Thread - Part 1

[The Shape]

And a 4K-ready TV.

 

[JangoNate]

you need 4K Ultra-HD Blu-ray player.
the cheapest one is Xbox One S, $299, which comes out in Aug.

Just to clarify, the Xbox One S 2TB is what comes out in August and is $399. The other versions don't have an official release date, but should be out by the end of the year.

Sweet. My theater has the Dolby Atmos so this is going to be the best of the best projection and acoustics.

 

[roach]

Just got an email from WB about a screening of the extended cut

 

[The Shape]

Yup, I just got two passes for the NY screening. Not sure if I can make it, as I'd have to modify my work schedule next week, but I'm gonna give it a shot. It's a free screening and I'd love to see this on the big screen one more time.

 

[Sleiek]

Im going to and I don't have a 4k tv or player...but I feel that I will be getting both soon and for $5 more, you have the extra 4k disc along with the blu ray

That's what I was thinking but..

I almost did the same, for the same reason, but be careful, the cover on Amazon says that the extended cut is on 4K and Digital HD but ONLY the theatrical is on Blu-ray

****.

Damn.

From what I've read, there are still enough drawbacks to owning a 4K TV. Any material that is not 4K (i.e. 99% of the material we consume today) needs to be upscaled to 4K and that cause some issues with gaming in particular.

Bottom line, there is not enough 4K material available to justify a TV this early in the game. You're better off waiting until the technology becomes more widespread because by the time that happens, the 4K TV you buy today will be outdated.

 

[Sleiek]

Yeah. I was thinking about getting the 4K Versions with no plans to get the 4K TV any time now.

My plan was to use the Bluray version included in the 4K version until I get a 4K TV, I don't know, probably next year or the year after.

But apparently the Ultimate Cut for Blu Ray is not included. So I am not getting the 4K version.

Depends entirely on the scaler of the TV and/or receiver. I know the more expensive units (from Sony and LG in particular) have done great at upscaling the 1080p content.

But yeah, if you're an average consumer, you're better off waiting at least another year for the tech to really be standardized. HDR, arguably a more beneficial improvement than 4K, is still being fought over between HDR10 and Dolby Vision. Sony TVs support both, but they're at exuberant prices.

Personally, I don't want my TV to add stuff that isn't on the original disc. If my movie collection is 99% 1080p, why bother with 4K? Those extra pixels can wait.

That's the way I see it. People have a tendency to think new/more = better (e.g. a higher refresh rate on your TV must be better). You gotta be strategic about these big purchases.

Yeah, HDR is a really nice addition. Didn't notice much with 4K. I have a LG OLED 4K HDR TV that I just picked up. It supports both Dolby Vision and HDR10. After hearing reviews from people who have seen BvS in Dolby Vision theaters, I'm excited for my viewing experience on the new TV. Have to wait until August and the XBox One S, though to check out the 4K BluRay. Do we know if VUDU will have BvS with Dolby Vision. It's not showing now, but I know that Man of Steel has it.

 

[hildenburg]

It seems the UC is available right now, according this post over at r/dc_cinematic.

 

[Kyle]

Does anyone know if some place is letting you get the digital version early if you pre-order the blu ray? I know that happened when I get 'Heart of the Sea' from Walmart. But, unsure how often that's done and if that is being done for this.

 

[Reel-Man]

Look at the post right before yours.

 

[Retroman]

cool for the fans in Sydney.

Would love it if WB organized something like that here. But i don't see that happening.

Sweet. My theater has the Dolby Atmos so this is going to be the best of the best projection and acoustics.

Agreed about the projection and acoustics of Dolby Atmos. I saw The Martian in that particular format months ago.

I have a 4k tv and I don't get any issues with quality.

 

[Kyle]

Looked. That's unrelated.

I'm talking get digital AND hard copy blu ray. When I ordered 'Heart of the Sea' to pick up at Walmart they also e-mailed me the code for the film on digital.

 

[Cobblepot]

Damnit. Can't wait for it anymore. Pre-ordered it a while ago but we don't get a release until august 3rd!

 

[MAN O STEEL]

As someone who lives in Australia and can't use vudu or hulu or pretty much anything with an u in it. How can I purchase and watch the digital version of BVS extended on the 28th?. Someone a while back said Google play and itunes but when I checked them out they only showed me options for the theatrical cut. Please help me if it's not to much trouble
