I need to get this off my chest. The 1080p Dremasters that are still a work in progress, are they going to be straight up remasters of the old blu-rays without the upscaling (color correction and grain included), or are they simply downscales of the already upscaled 4K Dremasters?

I’m hoping it’s the former because (I’m sorry if I’m sounding a little fussy but) I can be skeptical of this upscaling technology because said technology is still far from perfect. It can still make mistakes in the image when some details in said image are hard to decipher.

If I wanted a film or video of a lower resolution to be watchable on a 4K TV, I would take a more cautious approach by simply slapping a spline36 upscale filter on it and call it a day.
