dir. Danny Boyle

The 4K landed on Sony Pictures September 23, 2025, with reference-level video and audio across the board. Extras are the only weak spot. Danny Boyle shot the film on iPhone rigs and the HDR pass holds every texture through cleanly. The Zavvi UK steelbook has become the preferred SKU over the plain US keepcase, and Bone Temple follows in April 2026.

dir. Paul Weitz

S-Tier 4K. Universal gave this a good transfer. Their comedy catalog releases on 4K have been solid across the board.

88 Films · Deluxe Collector's Edition

dir. Luis Llosa

S-Tier Paramount 4K. A 90s creature feature on 4K for people who grew up watching it on cable.

Sony Pictures · Steelbook (4K + Blu-ray)

dir. Adil El Arbi, Bilall Fallah

After their late former Captain is framed, Lowrey and Burnett try to clear his name, only to end up on the run themselves.

dir. Steven Soderbergh

S-Tier Universal 4K. Steven Soderbergh's latest. Walmart steelbook shipping complaints are a recurring theme.

Universal Pictures · Collector's Edition

dir. Brad Silberling

S-Tier Universal 4K. The 90s kids movie. Universal announced the 4K and it's a nostalgia buy for a lot of people.

Universal Pictures · 30th Anniversary Edition

dir. Steven Spielberg

C-Tier Paramount 4K. Spielberg and DiCaprio. Paramount announced this alongside Minority Report. The C-Tier might improve with a future rescan.

Paramount Pictures · 4K + Blu-ray

dir. Darren Aronofsky

A-Tier Sony 4K. Darren Aronofsky's next film. Sony has the release.

Sony Pictures · 4K + Blu-ray

dir. Jonathan Lynn

S-Tier Shout Factory 4K. Tim Curry in a board game adaptation. The fact that this film has a cult following strong enough to warrant an S-Tier 4K from Shout Factory says everything about where physical media is right now.

Shout! Studios · Collector's Edition

dir. Amy Heckerling

A-Tier Paramount 4K. The artwork on the standard release looks more Y2K than mid-90s, which some people didn't love. Last year's steelbook had better artwork.

Paramount Pictures · Steelbook (30th Anniversary Limited Edition)

dir. Spike Lee

Universal put this on 4K in 2021 and it ranks Solid on bestblurays. Reference-level user scores for picture and sound, and owners say it's a clear step up from the Criterion Blu-ray, though Criterion still wins on extras. Gruv's 3-for-$30 sales have been moving it for around $10 USD.

Universal Pictures · 4K + Blu-ray

dir. Steven Soderbergh

S-Tier Universal 4K. Julia Roberts takes on a power company. Universal catalog.

Universal Pictures · 4K + Blu-ray

dir. John Hughes

A-Tier Paramount 4K. Matthew Broderick skips school in Chicago. Paramount's 80s comedy catalog.

Paramount Pictures · 4K + Blu-ray

dir. Alfred Hitchcock

Part of the Hitchcock Classics Collection Volume 3 alongside Rope, Torn Curtain, Topaz, and The Man Who Knew Too Much. Collectors consistently call Frenzy underrated and say the set is worth it for Rope and Frenzy alone. Hitchcock's most violent film, with a London serial killer plot that feels more like a 70s thriller than his usual style.

Universal Pictures · 4K + Blu-ray

dir. Jerry Zucker

C-Tier Paramount 4K. Swayze and Demi Moore with pottery. The C-Tier reflects a standard catalog transfer.

Paramount Pictures · 4K + Blu-ray

dir. Ridley Scott

S-Tier Paramount 4K. Ridley Scott's Colosseum sequel with Paul Mescal and Pedro Pascal.

Paramount Pictures · 4K + Blu-ray

dir. Henry Koster

S-Tier Universal 4K. Jimmy Stewart and a giant invisible rabbit. The transfer is warm and clean.

Universal Pictures · 4K + Blu-ray

dir. Adrian Lyne

S-Tier Lionsgate 4K. Adrian Lyne's nightmare horror with Tim Robbins. There's a persistent Criterion wish-list energy around this title, and someone insists there used to be a laserdisc edition. The steelbook artwork is really nice. If Studiocanal ever separates from their Lionsgate deal, a boutique edition could happen. For now the Lionsgate 4K is it.

Lionsgate · Steelbook (4K + Blu-ray)

dir. Gareth Edwards

S-Tier Universal 4K. Shot on film with strong cinematography, which makes the 4K disc look great even though the movie itself was pretty widely panned. People keep pointing out that a reference-quality disc doesn't help much if you never want to watch the film again. Gareth Edwards' signature dark, dim visual style is even more pronounced here than in Godzilla 2014.

Universal Pictures · Collector's Edition

dir. Robert Hamer

S-Tier StudioCanal 4K. Alec Guinness playing eight members of the same family. The StudioCanal 70th anniversary set is the one to get if you're region-free, with better packaging than the Kino release.

StudioCanal · 4K + Blu-ray (United Kingdom)

dir. Christopher McQuarrie

Paramount put this out October 14, 2025 and it's been a divisive release on every front. The film itself splits collectors down the middle, with the action sequences landing hard and the runtime padded by exposition a lot of people found tedious. The steelbook art got mixed reactions too, mostly from collectors wishing Paramount had stuck with the silver and grey design used for M:I 1 through 6. Extras-wise the disc is stacked, with audio commentaries, an isolated score track, deleted scenes, and the usual making-of pack.

Paramount Pictures · 4K + Blu-ray

dir. Terry Jones, Terry Gilliam

A-Tier Sony 4K. The Holy Grail finally on 4K in August 2025 after years of people waiting. The steelbook announcement got immediate day-one energy. It's bizarre that Meaning of Life was the only Python film on 4K for so long. The $40+ USD steelbook price caused some grumbling, but people bought it anyway.

Sony Pictures · Steelbook (50th Anniversary Edition)

dir. Robert Eggers

S-Tier Universal 4K. Eggers' 2024 Nosferatu, and the BFI 4K release became a controversy when the transfer turned out to be heavily processed with DNR and possible AI smoothing. OrbitDVD's social media went viral telling customers to stop asking them for refunds on a disc they didn't make. The Universal US steelbook from GRUV was pre-ordered in droves after the BFI debacle, and a second steelbook with better artwork and debossing followed.

Universal Pictures · Extended Cut

dir. David Fincher

Fincher collectors hold onto this one and the steelbook has a steady second-hand market. The 4K disc delivers what you want from a Fincher film.

Sony Pictures · Steelbook (4K + Blu-ray)

dir. Alfred Hitchcock

Part of the Hitchcock Classics Collection Volume 3, which has been discounted as low as $18 USD with coupons. Collectors consistently say the set is worth it for Rope and Frenzy alone. The biggest collector request is Dial M for Murder in 4K, followed by North By Northwest. The single-take technique makes this one interesting to revisit on a better display.

Universal Pictures · 4K + Blu-ray

dir. Roman Polanski

Paramount's 4K got dragged for ugly cover artwork and the giant "FIRST TIME ON 4K ULTRA HD" banner. Polanski's name is conspicuously absent from the cover, which people noticed. The better deal is the Paramount Scares Volume 1 box set at roughly $10 USD per film. One thing to check before buying the standalone disc is whether it's the corrected version, because the original pressing had sync issues and a missing line of dialogue.

Paramount Pictures · 55th Anniversary Edition

dir. Judd Apatow

Andy Stitzer has a pleasant life with a nice apartment and a job stamping invoices at an electronics store. But at age 40, there's one thing Andy hasn't done, and it's really bothering his sex-obsessed male co-workers: Andy is still a virgin. Determined to help Andy get laid, the guys make it their mission to de-virginize him. But it all seems hopeless until Andy meets small business owner Trish, a single mom.

Universal Pictures · Unrated

dir. Jeff Nichols

After a chance encounter, headstrong Kathy is drawn to Benny, member of Midwestern motorcycle club the Vandals. As the club transforms into a dangerous underworld of violence, Benny must choose between Kathy and his loyalty to the club.

Universal Pictures · Collector's Edition

dir. Oliver Stone

StudioCanal B-Tier 4K via Lionsgate Limited. Oliver Stone's Jim Morrison film has its fans and the soundtrack in lossless is worth the upgrade on its own.

StudioCanal · Steelbook (The Final Cut)

dir. Alfred Hitchcock

Part of the Hitchcock Classics Collection Volume 3, which Gruv has discounted as low as $18 USD with coupons. Collectors call this the weaker of Hitchcock's two versions of the story (the 1934 British original is preferred by purists) but the Doris Day performance and "Que Sera, Sera" sequence make it the more visually interesting disc.

Universal Pictures · 4K + Blu-ray

dir. Wes Anderson

Universal dropped this on 4K fast, July 29, 2025, which is unusual for a Wes Anderson title. Extras are thin compared to a Criterion treatment, just a four-part making-of. Collectors are split, with some buying now and others holding out for a future Criterion 4K the way Moonrise Kingdom eventually got one.

Universal Pictures · 4K + Blu-ray

dir. Cecil B. DeMille

Still coming up in Easter and Passover context. Someone rewatched it ahead of their Ben-Hur collector's edition arriving and the comments went to Spartacus comparisons. The 4K is A-Tier.

Paramount Pictures · 4K + Blu-ray

dir. Carol Reed

In postwar Vienna, Austria, Holly Martins, a writer of pulp Westerns, arrives penniless as a guest of his childhood chum Harry Lime, only to learn he has died. Martins develops a conspiracy theory after learning of a "third man" present at the time of Harry's death, running into interference from British officer Major Calloway, and falling head-over-heels for Harry's grief-stricken lover, Anna.

StudioCanal · 4K + Blu-ray (United Kingdom)

dir. Ruben Fleischer

Investigative journalist Eddie Brock attempts a comeback following a scandal, but accidentally becomes the host of Venom, a violent, super powerful alien symbiote. Soon, he must rely on his newfound powers to protect the world from a shadowy organization looking for a symbiote of their own.

Sony Pictures · 4K + Blu-ray

dir. Andy Serkis

Sony's S-Tier 4K with reference Dolby Vision and Atmos, the kind of disc that earns the upgrade for the Atmos mix alone. The film also lands inside Sony's 3-Movie Collection alongside the 2018 Venom and Last Dance.

Sony Pictures · 4K + Blu-ray

dir. Kelly Marcel

Sony's S-Tier 4K finishes the trilogy with reference-grade Dolby Vision and Atmos. The German Plaion Steelbook is the design pick, with collectors flagging the comic artwork as the standout of the year. The US Steelbook is sitting around $37 and most buyers are holding for the sale.

Sony Pictures · 4K + Blu-ray

dir. Jon M. Chu

In the land of Oz, ostracized and misunderstood green-skinned Elphaba is forced to share a room with the popular aristocrat Glinda at Shiz University, and the two's unlikely friendship is tested as they begin to fulfill their respective destinies as Glinda the Good and the Wicked Witch of the West.
