S-Tier Universal 4K. PTA's fashion drama with Daniel Day-Lewis. Available on GRUV in their 2-for-$22 USD sales. The Criterion sub debates whether it's a perfect date movie, and the consensus seems to be yes if you're into intense relationships. People keep waiting for more PTA on 4K, especially Boogie Nights, Magnolia, and There Will Be Blood.

S-Tier Criterion 4K with a 4.5 score. PTA's romantic comedy with Adam Sandler, and the Criterion 4K and the Sony 4K from the Columbia Classics box have slightly different aspect ratios from different masters. People want more PTA on 4K, especially Boogie Nights, Magnolia, and There Will Be Blood. A Boogie Nights steelbook was announced separately, which suggests PTA's catalog won't all land at Criterion.

A-Tier Warner Bros. 4K. PTA's breakout. The December 4K announcement was welcome news.
