The DI used for this release is the 2010 scan that was made for the blu-ray 2010 release. There is a ton of DNR and edge enchantement on this 4K release. That's what Cameron wants his movies to look like. This is not for me, but maybe it will appeal to others. There was also no serious HDR color grading work, only a 200 nits SDR100/1000 convertion from the 2010 grading. I did a comparison along with a custom uspacle of the blu-ray disc and a New HDR color grading on my channel.

HDR is about range, NOT brightness. If there is incredible shadow detail in a dark movie, this is something that's impossible and SDR, and this is something which is an equally valid HDR showcase to impress your friends just as much as the magpie brightness stuff. A huge range of the values in PQ are reserved for shadow detail for GOOD REASONS!

I thought aliens looked ok with the new 4K transfer. I did get annoyed that the special edition digital file was only hd and standard surround. It would have been nice to have kept some of the film grain. It can be distracting a bit thought. There are a couple of scenes in an older movie Silent running where the film grain jumps out at you but it’s still good it’s there. The hd special edition came across as a bit softer with the ai treatment. I did purchase the 4K combo pack.

I don't have an Atmos setup (I have a 5.1 with the surrounds being tri-poles slightly above and behind my head and pointing at the seating position) but am used to Atmos tracks still sounding better on my system than previous mixes (sometimes VERY noticeably so) but last night, watching the Aliens 4K for the first time (on rental) and comparing to my 2012 Blu-ray (from the Quad set) I couldn't hear any improvement at all, in fact I was thinking my old Blu-ray sounded better !

I'm definitely not a purist. But I really liked this transfer. The audio is what it is without re-doing all the effects, but it's very decent compared to other 80's movies imo. I really didn't like the T2 transfer. It's in my top 5 of all time (as a movie) and I didn't buy it. If they redo it with the same technology as Aliens/Abyss, I'll be more than happy to get it. I hope Jim Cameron helps Michael Bay out with Disney/Sony (who apparently is going to do some physical media for Disney) and gets us some of the old Bay movies to 4k (The Rock, Armageddon, Pearl Harbor) Thanks for the review!

@Eva01-jy2qu7pu9r Ай бұрын

I really don't understand why studios think film grain is a bad thing when grain is where all the detail is featured in. By scrubbing it away and adding artificial detail through recent digital tools, it completely betrays how the original film used to be like and what was the intended look for the film upon release. Whats worse is when they take old dated masters and just upscale it, which is unfortunately what Cameron and Park Road did here.

@mcarr416ix Ай бұрын

Not sure it's about what studios think is best, more about what they think audiences will prefer. Film purists love grain but general audiences don't. These films need to appeal to the masses because dollars are more important than cents.

Shane, my feelings about this transfer/restoration echo yours. Having watched this film so many times over the last twenty something years, I can’t stand this new digitally-enhanced version-it’s just a completely new experience that as you’ve said, might please those who’s never seen the film. A complete contrast to Alien 4K, which had a more traditional film restoration.

I watched the new 4K disk back-to-back with the old blu-ray (Quadrology): While I appreciate a slightly enhanced color palette and the higher resolution, I think Cameron has lost all sense of proportion: This isn’t the movie I loved anymore. The grain is gone and so is all hint of filmic appearance and especially atmosphere. Cameron’s revisionary version looks absolutely clean and lifeless, the sets seem unrealistic and stagey, often cheap, and the colors seem to pop right out of a soap opera.

I actually love this video transfer, and I've owned the movie over the years on 'everything': Laserdisc, widescreen laserdisc, DVD, Blu-ray. As Cameron has explained, the film the movie was shot on wound-up being a bit experimental and not the best of its era. I've no problem with the cleanup done on this: it's respectful, while making the film look amazing and engaging in a way I haven't experience it since the original Theatrical release. I am grateful for your technical Atmos analysis, which confirms my less-impressed take on the audio. While I still might have to watch the movie again with sound up a little higher (I had it a couple notches on the conservative side, for the neighbors' sake), but your Atmos Viewer and review confirms what I'd felt: a less-than mind blowing audio configuration. Another review from weeks back had left me expecting a lot more of it, and I just didn't think the audio track matched the level of modernization the video had been put through. Not a slouch, but not a reference quality Atmos mix, either.

I really like this 4K transfer despite its increased detail. I agree removing the mist and grime does take away from the more cinematic look. Aliens was never an attractive looking movie. The grain was very obtrusive looking at times. It had very little detail due to the fog effects used. If any movie deserved a little TLC it would be Aliens. I think this is the best transfer to date.

I didn't like the video quality in this one at all. From what I read, they AI upscaled a 1080p transfer, not a 4K DI. I wish they would've just rescanned it in 4K (or higher), adjusted the HDR and then left well enough alone. The director of Aliens would've loved that and it would've been great, but instead we got the director of Avatar 2 mucking with things and he approved this. You might think they're the same person, but in NAME ONLY! I hate modern Cameron, love pre-Titanic 3D Cameron to death (that's where he fell in love with DNR). I thought the sound was fine... nothing special, nothing bad. Of its time. Which is how the picture should be, just in 4K. Don't understand grain haters.

Thanks for your honesty in regards to the digital look. You give your personal take while also acknowledging that others might have different opinions. I personally don't like the removal of Grain and AI sharpening and would prefer directors would be more "proud" if the movie was shot on film. A grade 4K scan of an analog film stock can still look great (as seen in Black Hawk Down). But I guess James Cameron wanted the movies to look this way so all we can do is moan a little bit and vote with our purchase. The old Blu-Ray of Aliens does not have the same issues and still looks good enough for me so I skip the upgrade.

Sad that film stick did not hold up, but Kodak eventually perfected those types to what we know know as Vision 3. We'll see what else we find out about soon too.
