Wow it’s actually on the tv so my comment was timely?

That’s great

Also it has nice music and Elijah Wood is cute so it’s a pretty chill watch really

#407

Can’t imagine paying full attention for 3+ hours though

Massively to my eyes, some people dgaf though. DVDs look pretty bad on big modern tellies. Basically like the difference between a ps2 and a ps4.

actually I have noticed some dvds look shit on HD tvs. had a moment a few months ago where I thought my copy of goodfellas was bootleg or something it looked so bad, put put it down to my telly being shit instead.

might become a blu-ray man.

Not going to graduate to full 4K snob territory?

#415

are you having to rebuy your entire dvd collection now then?

#416

man, i don’t really know what 4k is tbh. i have a ps4 and we have an HD telly in the flat - is that not good enough?

What about the blonde lady who gets angry and chops the faceless man’s head off?

Yeah of course, its all bullshit. Stuff looking good only matters for the first 15 minutes of watching a movie/playing a game.

Been playing Quake 1 and it’s still better than your calls of duty and your forts of nite

I mean, I kind of get it with some stuff - my goodfellas experience for example, but I find it difficult to believe blu-ray will be supplanted by 4K or whatever. Isn’t blu-ray supposed to be pretty flawless?

It’s just higher resolution again so you see more detail in the picture. Will depends how far you sit from the tv, how fucked your eyes are and how drunk you are though

I only really buy blurays for films that deserve the royal treatment, an HD stream is good enough for things I’m just watching casually or whatever.

In pure terms of pixels, DVDs are 720x576, Blurays 1920x1080 and 4k is 3840x2160 so they’re pretty massive jumps really but there are variables within those as well. :nerd_face:
