Anyhoo, how did the Batman Vs. Superman look in 4K? I just watched the regular Blu-ray last night and it was awesome.

That it was. :cheers:

I don't have a 4K Projector or TV. I watched the entire Blu Ray thinking the extra footage would be there but it was only on the 4K disc. I was sort of PO. I would be curious to get a review from someone as well. Especially, because HDR is really being so hyped.

Oh, sorry. For some reason I thought you had one of the earlier models. My bad.

I have been debating getting the Sumsung 4K player but balked on the Projector or 4K TV for now because of all the craziness around the new HDMI spec, HDR etc. I almost purchased a 4K TV at Christmas but glad I didn't because of the new HDR spec.

I have a Blu ray on it's last legs so I can easily justify the player. the 4K TV or Projectors are not at the price point I want right now. I want to go OLED with the TV and the Projector I would really like to go LED because of the heat output of standard projectors.

I wouldn't either unless my current TV died. Once HDR and Extended Color come around, I think folks will begin to see what a real improvement can be done above and beyond simply more pixels.

Use a browser without an ad blocker installed and behold.

It was turned off already. My automatic updates for my extensions were not working either. Once I rebooted...back to normal.
