I know. But- not necessarily you, Harmy- a lot of fans will simply refuse to be satisfied and will always find something to bitch about. Lucasfilm refuses to release the originals- that’s something to get angry about. The colors for the TFA BD are slightly different from the theatrical version? People get angry. It’s the nature of nerds.

Sure but HDR has absolutely nothing to do with it.

People are bitching about the HDR grade on the 4K Blu-ray for Ghostbusters. It’s a sad truth.

Where at? I cant seem to find it.

Blu-ray.com forums.

Info Wanted: Is it possible to make a Dolby Atmos track for the OT?
Time

I just saw that for the Ghostbusters 4K UHD Blu-ray release, it’s going to have a Dolby Atmos track, even though the best you could get back then was stereo or 5.1 for a 70mm release. It made me think of how awesome Star Wars would sound in Atmos. We have the 5.1 70mm reconstruction readily available, so why not, if possible, remix Harmy’s DeEd into Atmos for those who want it?

Some people were saying that the LD was “cropped”, which isn’t the case. The Blu-ray release had (slight) open mattes, opening it from 1.85:1 (the original theatrical ratio) to 1.78:1 (the HDTV standard). Just thought I’d throw my opinion into the ring and say we should crop the BD to 1.85:1 to really get an “authentic” theatrical version.

The original aspect ratio is 1.66. In American theaters, this would have been cropped to 1.85.

16x9 is much closer to the original aspect ratio than 1.85 but in all honesty, there isn’t THAT much difference between 1.66, 16x9 and 1.85. You’d really need to be pixel peeking to notice.

Oh. I had no idea the negative ratio was 1.66. Still think that the 1.85 crop makes it look a bit more cinematic.
