" We’ve gotten more confirmation too from sources that Sony is preparing The Bridge on the River Kwai for 4K UHD release later this year, and that Paramount is preparing The Godfather films for 4K UHD, though we don’t have a timetable for that release. I’ve actually seen tests of both titles on the format and they’re impressive as hell. "

Yeah!  The only reason I "liked" this post was because I liked the "frown"!

Let us know what you think.  I have Leon in BR with Atmos, so I'm not much inclined to get the UHD unless it is pretty special.

You got the last " remastered in 4K " version, correct ? I decided to wait for this. I assume the same Blu-ray you got will be included with the 4K disc.

Best Buy has UHD disc pre-order up for both Fifth Element (SteelBook) and Leon.   Both priced at $22.99 with free shipping.

I think I'll wait for the reviews first. No hurry on this.

AVSCraig,

...you've opened a remarkable can of classic possibilities...just think of the 3-strip technicolor films from the past that
would probably be mind blowing in 4K...of course, if especially Warner Bros. would do us the honor of investing and releasing the outstanding library of films at their beck and command...

...just a note...the discription of "The Wizard of Oz" that you've posted is weird to say the least...It makes the classic sound as if it is a film noir...
