John Goodman movies available on 4K Blu-ray, ranked by transfer quality.
dir. Joe Dante
Joe Dante's love letter to William Castle and atomic-age creature features getting a 4K from Shout Factory. S-Tier transfer and the early response is all positive. One of those films that never had a bad word said about it but somehow never got a proper release until now.

Universal S-Tier 4K. The Dude abides in reference quality. One of those discs that gets bought on impulse every time someone posts it, and the comments are always just quotes from the film.

A-Tier Paramount 4K. Scorsese's underseen ambulance film. Paramount announced the 4K and it was a surprise to most people.

Literature professor Jim Bennett leads a secret life as a high-stakes gambler. Always a risk-taker, Bennett bets it all when he borrows from a gangster and offers his own life as collateral. Staying one step ahead, he pits his creditor against the operator of an illicit gambling ring while garnering the attention of Frank, a paternalistic loan shark. As his relationship with a student deepens, Bennett must risk everything for a second chance.

Paramount 4K steelbook preorder is live. The art drew immediate attention because the back panel spoils the ending, and the thread is split between loving the design and being baffled by that choice. People coming in for a first watch are being warned to avoid looking at the case.
Limited Edition Steelbook
dir. Robert Zemeckis
Kino Lorber picking up the Zemeckis/Washington Oscar film for 4K. No release date yet and no tier rating, but Kino has been putting out solid transfers lately. The plane crash sequence should look incredible with HDR.

WB 4K steelbook collector's edition artwork got a warm reception. People love this movie and will tell you it's underrated without being asked. A standard edition will probably follow eventually since WB always does.

Shout Factory steelbook coming June 2. Not a disc anyone was expecting to get the steelbook treatment, but Shout keeps digging into the 90s catalog.
