LOTR & The Hobbit in 4K

[DLCPhoto]

I'm definitely interested, but at $89.99 for each trilogy, I think I'll wait a while for the prices to come down!

Luckily I'm only interested in the LOTR trilogy, but I'll still wait a bit. It may or may not drop in price. It might just sell out like the Columbia 4K Collection did.

Damn it, after reading Bill Hunt's initial reaction to LOTR on 4K, I ordered it ! 

Bill Hunt on Twitter: "The Ride of the Rohirrim in 4K with HDR and Atmos is the single greatest thing I have ever experienced in my home theater. And I do NOT say that lightly. I may just have leapt out of my seat. https://t.co/B1jw6IOl5A" / Twitter

I agree with him...it looks absolutely great and the Atmos is outstanding!

I picked up the hobbit 4k when it went down $69.99 on Amazon. I had a few promotional credits I had to use up before expiring. 

Next up is the game of thrones set in 4k.

I know, most folks here are "disc only" but Apple has a good bundle sale on Middle Earth. 6 movie extended edition collection (4K, Atmos, DV) is $39.99. The extended edition trilogies are $24.99 each. I might compare the LOTR UHD disc vs iTunes and grab The Hobbit this way. I feel much better about $25 for that one if it's close enough on the audio side, than $70 much less $90 for discs.

Edit: The individual movies are currently $7.99. So it's $1 less to buy them individually. Doh!

Watched The Hobbit Unexpected Journey last night...Video was reference quality...much cleaner than Fellowship of the Ring...I’m watching them in the recommended order Fellowship of the Ring followed by the Hobbit trilogy and then the remaining 2 movies...Just wanted to comment The Hobbit was reference, quite amazing restoration actually...

Because of the way The Hobbit was shot, it really didn't need a lot of restoration (the Blu-ray's looked outstanding when released). LOTR is a different story
