S-Tier Curzon Film 4K. Bong Joon Ho's serial killer masterpiece. The 4K remaster has a reputation for being too dark and green compared to the original South Korean Blu-ray, which has the more natural color timing. Multiple versions exist across regions. The Curzon release is the one most English-speaking collectors are buying, though the import shipping is steep.

S-Tier Artificial Eye 4K. Bong Joon Ho's Palme d'Or winner, and the French debossed steelbook is gorgeous. The B&W version is included, and most people picked it up specifically for that. The "ass" in the middle of the steelbook text was pointed out and now nobody can unsee it.

Lionsgate S-Tier 4K. Bong Joon-ho's train class warfare film got a lot of excitement when the 4K was announced, and the steelbook packaging landed well. The steelbook edition runs three discs deep with 4K, Blu-ray, and standard all in the case.
