This one is not for everyone, but I really enjoyed The Dressmaker on Blu Ray tonight.   Some really good little films come out of Australia.

I love Kate Winslet and Hugo Weaving is great in every role he takes on (excluding Megatron of course).

Watched Star Wars - A New Hope last night, in honor of Carrie Fisher. I'm always amazed at how good this Blu ray looks on my RS600, considering the age of the film. A really good looking transfer. It's fun to re-watch these classic Sci Fi movies.

We had a New Years Eve party last night - Chinese food, champagne and watched Top Gun and Singing in the Rain ( followed by a little of the " This Is It " music video to get us to 12 midnight ! Loved watching Singing in the Rain again. Great movie.

After tweaking my RS500 settings for HDR, I watched The Martian UHD disc again.   

I upgraded my audio for Atmos since the last time I viewed it.  So disappointed to see my AVR reporting TrueHD instead.

So how many have double or even triple dipped on this title?   I will be looking for a sale on the extended version of the UHD disc which has Atmos.

I like The Martian, but the 4K theatrical cut is the last one I buy. Good enough for me.

It's a bit of a downer if I remember correctly.

Watched " Star Wars - The Force Awakens " last night, since we watched Return of the Jedi the night before. Wanted to see how well they segued from one the other. Worked pretty well in my opinion !
