2001 and Blade Runner 4Ks are, no exaggeration, two of the absolute BEST-looking 4K discs/transfers I have EVER seen so far. The look mind-blowingly *phenomenal*!

@erikdolnack2737 10 месяцев назад

Easily, Kubrick's 4K UHD "2001: A Space Odyssey". I always want to own 2001 on whatever latest/greatest format is at the current time and technology can deliver. Easily THE greatest sci-fi movie of all-time.

Interstellar is a must have! This one is more of a cyber-punk movie and it is not perfect but Ghost in the Shell (2017) was also a great feature

@lold6130 10 месяцев назад

Love 'Ready Player One'. Fun for movie buffs to spot all the references to other pictures.

@mrchrisliddell 10 месяцев назад

@burninator1983 10 месяцев назад

I own every single title that you mentioned and have to agree that they are definitely stunning 4K discs. I also would have included The Matrix films, at least the first one, which also looks great on 4K. Rogue One is probably the best 4K release of all of the Star Wars films which I think would come close to the top ten as well.

@ericj1385 10 месяцев назад

@mikerobinson883 10 месяцев назад

I would absolutely love to see Sunshine on 4k. Even the Blu Ray looks excellent.

@mitchellhodgemeyer7306 10 месяцев назад

I would kill for a good 4K of Dark City (Sunshine is a good pick too) - that film is criminally underrated. You know a good 4K remaster with a skillfully done Atmos track would be just be incredible looking and sounding.

@mikerobinson883 10 месяцев назад

@@LobsterPuncher right, and a lot of people had issues with some of the blu rays of Sunshine where the special features would keep popping up during playback of the film. I have never experienced this but it's a common problem a lot of people have had so that right there should warrant a 4k. I'd also like to see one for Pandorum. My copy of the blu ray has horrible audio sync issues that can't be fixed. That's another that could use a 4k release.

I waited quite a while for Edge of Tomorrow to come out on 4k having seen it on cable before. The wait was worth it. I'd also like to see a list of Sci fi movies not on 4k that we need on 4k. My number one pick would be Minority Report.

@geminisundone 10 месяцев назад

Fantastic list. Ive recently bought a 4k blu ray player and a Sony soundbar ( never had multiple speakers. Always relied on my tv speakers ) and ive recently bought most of these. Currently watching the thing. Mind blown. Im 49 so i remember watching it on vhs in the 80's. How times have changed. Keep up the great work 👍

@bstatmeister 10 месяцев назад

Pacific Rim is GOAT in terms of video quality. It's crazy that it is a 2k upscale. The HDR specular highlights are off the charts

@Mike-fs3bv 10 месяцев назад

This is a solid list. I have several on here already and agree with your choices. For me Pacific Rim is a guilty pleasure. I watch it more than I should and love it every time. That is on my 4K pick up list along with a few here. We are only a couple months from Black Friday sales which is always a good time to pick up titles at highly reduced prices.

@travislansford6925 10 месяцев назад

Sci Fi is probably my favorite genre. And this I think is the first list you put out where I own every single film! That was awesome. I usually miss at least one. I would add Star Wars. The original trilogy isn't the best transfer, but I would add those to my list.

@TheOriginalFuzz 10 месяцев назад

@gamebuck 10 месяцев назад

Great video, Adam! I love sci-fi. Glad to say I already have most of these, but I’m waiting for sales to grab the rest. Actually just watched 2001 last week for the first time on 4K and it blew my mind. A few that I enjoy that you didn’t mention: the Matrix, Ghost in the Shell (the original animated film on 4K is great and I actually had fun with the live action for what it was), and sorry but I just have a lot of fun with the new Star Trek movies and think they look and sound pretty great on 4K

@mitchellhodgemeyer7306 10 месяцев назад

I would add Ghost In The Shell to the list (The 1995 animated Japanese film). Quintessential, must-have sci-fi in my opinion, and mystifyingly cheap in most cases (on Amazon right now for $10.99).

You guys really gotta pick up - The Fifth Element (UK Version if you can) It's a classic that looks and sounds spectacular in 4k. You wont regret it! Ready Player One is the first movie that wasnt a disney movie that me my wife and 10 year old daughter watched together. Absolutely a banger of a 4k movie. The scene where the asian kid turned into a Gundam had me out of my seat hollering and wooting. We Absolutely loved that movie!

@michaelwisslead5349 10 месяцев назад

Great list, Adam! I'll add, in no particular order; Passengers, Oblivion, Valerian and the City of a Thousand Planets, Arrival, Gattaca, The Matrix: Resurrection, Star Trek: Into Darkness, Rogue One: A Star Wars Story, Dawn of the Planet of the Apes, and Ex Machina.

@MovieGuy365 10 месяцев назад

I had about five of those on an early draft of my list. Great stuff.

@bigdreams5554 10 месяцев назад

I don't think Valerian is a sci Fi movie. Movies set in space/other plantes aren't necessarily sci-fi. Completely forgettable other than cool visuals on that beach planet

@bigdreams5554 10 месяцев назад

Same with Rogue One. Star Wars is a space fantasy, not sci Fi. But I am nitpicking now. Good list overall

@dr.emilschaffhausen4683 10 месяцев назад

Excellent topic and well put together! I appreciate the work you do for the physical media collector. I'll throw in a pitch for another Tom Cruise flick: Oblivion Excellent soundtrack, excellent effects and cinematography and great pacing. If you own the Bluray already it may not be worth it, but if you don't, this 4K disc is one of my favorites for repeat viewings. Passengers is also one of my favorites.

@milescoburn1845 10 месяцев назад

Great list, Adam! I would only quibble with "Interstellar" having good audio. I've found the mix between dialogue and the rest of the audio to be absolute garbage. It's almost a requirement to use subtitles to understand what the characters are saying. And it's not just me and my system. I've heard it from a lot of people who either use the subtitles or have to crank the volume up and down constantly.

@8BitDane 10 месяцев назад

Oh that is funny, I happen to own all of them. I would add the original Alien to the list as well, stunning looking in 4k.

@raymondhall3682 10 месяцев назад

Very different mentalities between MovieGuy and myself. The single most important variable between us is that in my view real SciFi in print or film should/must stimulate ones intelligence versus dumbing it down which most of the more recent Hollywood SciFi movies after year 2000 on this list exemplify...what about John Carpenter's "THE THING"? Overlooking other classic titles that were all made before year 2000 and have been released in 4K like "STARSHIP TROOPERS", "EVENT HORIZON" (as SciFi/horror), "ALIEN" and "CLOSE ENCOUNTERS" is inexcusable.

@MovieGuy365 10 месяцев назад

If you’re talking about the movies themselves, that’s a different list. This list incorporates movie and disc quality (picture and audio) Sorry to say the ones you mentioned aren’t top disc quality that would make my list. Maybe the Thing, but not the others. The Thing would be more horror than sci fi on my list.

"The Time Machine" [original ] .. and lets not forget some brilliant Manga movies like the Appleseed Trilogy. ... "Appleseed" "Appleseed Ex-Machina" & " Appleseed Alpha " that already look stunning. & "Akira" I realize this is Manga but still it is sci-fi and if you haven't already seen.
