Which 4K HDR Blu-Discs to buy ?

chaparral · 4 Nov 2018 at 17:14

Guys am not norma the kind of person that normally buys Blu-ray movies but I want to buy a few 4k HDR discs to see what they look like on my new 4K TV

I was thinking of buying these 2 4K discs
Blade Runner 2049
Wonder Woman

But I have no idea which films look best so I was hoping you guys could recommend some

The first ones I was thinking of buying was the Nolan 4K Collection but on AVforums people were going on about some of the batman films had crush blacks and didn't look very good..

I keep looking at the planet earth 2 & blue planet 2 two pack for £49 knowing the picture going be truly amazing but I don't think it the kind stuff I would enjoy watching..

Life of Pi is fantastic in UHD as well as Pacific Rim for the HDR.

I heard somewhere before that the Life of Pi picture was fantastic

(im now approaching the 100 mark in 4k discs)

WOW

How long have you been buying 4K discs for ?

I don't think my local HMV store even has 100 different 4k discs in stock

The space where they have there selection of 4k Blu-ray movies is tiny...

guessing there not a big seller

I ended up buying Blade Runner 2049, Wonder Woman, Die Hard 1
They didn't have Life of PI or superman (1978 version) instock

I almost bought the Predator Trilogy pack (I just seen amazon have this for £5 cheaper then my local HMV store)

I most likely buy a couple more next week

Check out Zavvi, 2 UHD films for £30.

https://www.zavvi.com/blu-ray/offers/2-for-30-4k.list

The same as HMV you get 2 for £30

I paid £9.99 for the 4k Die hard from HMV due to the HMV member discount card

I reckon pacific rim uprising might be good for the hdr aspect (I suspect the plot is poor).

I heard a few times about the 4k pacific rim movies are meant to look stunning..

Think my next one going be the 4k Planet Earth 2 & 4k Blue Planet 2 pack
I don't know if am going enjoy that kind of thing but I keep picking it up every time I look at 4k films
