S-Tier Paramount 4K. Yeah baby. The 60s spy parody aesthetic translates well to 4K.
ICON · 4K + Blu-ray
dir. Mel Brooks
S-Tier Warner Bros. 4K. Mel Brooks in HDR. The Warner Bros. catalog comedies on 4K have been quietly good across the board.
Warner Bros. · 4K + Blu-ray
dir. Ivan Reitman
Sony S-Tier 4K. Bill Murray joins the Army. The standalone steelbook is the first 4K release outside the Columbia Classics box set, and Sony's steelbooks in this tier tend to drop to around $21 USD within six months. If you can wait, the price will come down.

When North Korean ruler Kim Jong-il orchestrates a global terrorist plot, it's up to the heavily armed, highly specialized Team America unit to stop his dastardly scheme. The group, which has recruited troubled Broadway actor Gary Johnston, not only has to face off against Jong-il, but they must also contend with the Film Actors Guild, a cadre of Hollywood liberals at odds with Team America's 'policing the world' tactics.
Paramount Pictures · 4K + Blu-ray

S-Tier Criterion 4K. The IMDB page rates it out of 11 instead of 10, which feels right. The in-character DVD commentary where the band complains about being misrepresented is worth owning on its own.
Criterion Collection · 4K Ultra HD
dir. Ron Underwood
Val McKee and Earl Bassett are in a fight for their lives when they discover that their desolate town has been infested with gigantic, man-eating creatures that live below the ground.

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.

EiV · 4K Ultra HD
dir. Terry Jones
Brian Cohen is an average young Jewish man, but through a series of ridiculous events, he gains a reputation as the Messiah. When he's not dodging his followers or being scolded by his shrill mother, the hapless Brian has to contend with the pompous Pontius Pilate and acronym-obsessed members of a separatist movement. Rife with Monty Python's signature absurdity, the tale finds Brian's life paralleling Biblical lore, albeit with many more laughs.
Criterion Collection · 4K + Blu-ray Special Edition
dir. Tim Burton
Zavvi UK collector's edition with steelbook, rigid slipcase, posters, and art cards. US availability is the open question. The consensus landed immediately on buy first and ask questions later.

Kino Lorber 4K announced and people are excited. Most collectors never upgraded from their ancient DVDs because the Blu-ray was barely an improvement. This should be a real step up, and the announcement got more attention than you'd expect for a Trey Parker film that isn't South Park.
