Ex Machina is to be released in UHD in June.    Yes!

I love that movie ! That's a Black Friday double dip and sell the Blu Ray. I think my tactic will be if i have it already, and the 4K disc gets a review that indicates it is a jump in quality, it goes in the Amazon wish list for Black Friday sales . If it's a new movie I would have bought as a Blu ray anyway, I'll just pick that up as they hit $ 24.00 or so.

Claiming that the Ex Machina UHD disc will be released June 6 at $22.99.    That low price actually concerns me a bit.

I'm certainly looking forward to reading some reviews on this to see if they did a good enough job upgrading the film to 4K to make it worth re-buying. I'll add The 5th Element and Leon to that list.

Pretty good review - " Shot entirely on digital cameras capable of native 4K, which was later mastered into a 4K intermediate, the transfer is noticeably more detailed, exposing every negligible blemish and pore in the entire cast. The androids, too, come with an outstanding lifelike complexion and texture, and Ava's mesh body is razor-sharp. Sadly, I detected several instances of mild aliasing in a couple computer monitors and the floor lighting inside Ava's room. Nevertheless, the 2160p video is a terrific, excellent improvement. "

Its a start. :)

I got this disc yesterday. The price I paid at Amazon was $16.77 ! And the good news is it has a more detailed looking, and a much cleaner picture, which is what I had hoped for. The Blu-ray had a lot more video noise - the UHD BR has none. Color me impressed with the improvement !  The color looks outstanding too! I only had a little time to preview it, but I hope to be able to watch the entire movie again soon.

Large number of movies coming on 4K UHD Blu-ray this year. I could easily end 2017 with over 70 4K titles and 15% of my movie collection on 4K - http://thedigitalbits.com/columns/my-two-cents/070517-0800

So many of my favorite titles too - The Matrix, Gladiator, The Dark Knight Trilogy, Interstellar, Inception, Gravity - can't wait !!

Now Interstellar is the big surprise!  But will Nolan cave to Atmos?  Guess I'll have to remove the BR from my Wishlist -- definitely will get the UHD.

I expected (with nothing more than common sense) that two of the biggest Disney movies would get UHD -- The Guardians 2 and Pirates: Dead Men.  Now will they double down and do it with Dolby Vision? 

I agree-- lots to like in that list of probable UHD releases.
