Thanks for the info on Footloose man. That is indeed disappointing to hear. I have it on pre-order and will probably still buy it, just because we don't even own the blu-ray (and my wife especially wants it in the collection). But now I'm not sure which version to watch LOL! Btw, for what its worth, I often recommend your channel to others (publicly), precisely because I think you do really good, exhaustive work, and I find you to be a trustworthy source. So keep up the great work James... You've got a lot of us out here in your corner! 😉🤘
😘Thanks so much for your SUPER THANKS, continued support (especially you sharing & mentioning my videos) & your great comments, it’s really great hearing this‼️👌 BTW you can try them both out once your 4K💿 copy arrives & decide which is the worst version, but TBH they both have so so many downsides I had a hard time deciding too! LOL!😜 💥FYI: I’ll always keep bringing MY FIRE🔥 & the TRUTH in every video I work hard to continually create!!!🤘😉

@@InSearchofPhysicalMedia you are very welcome my good man. I’ll continue to watch, like, and support in many ways. Always looking forward to you future content!
I’ve learned pretty quickly that if it has Paramount on the spine then one needs to wait for some quality reviews. You never know what you’re gonna get in the quality department from them. Keep up the good work. It IS actually appreciated.
Thank you. A lot of the other reviewers always sound the same. It's always "More detail with a good use of HDR ." Thank you for the honesty. I'll be subscribing.
Thank you once again James for putting in the hard work with these 4k reviews. You are without a doubt the GO TO person who gives honest reviews. Keep up the good work!
Thank you for your honest review. People like myself appreciate your honesty and regular viewers of your channel, like me, continuously watch your videos for your intensive and in-depth and honest reviews 👏
Hello, I discovered your channel last year when I saw your review for the Superman movies and how to clean discs. That disc cleaning vid has been quite helpful.
🥰I really appreciate your SUPER THANKS 💵 any & ALL financial support is extremely important & really makes a difference for this channel & all these videos‼️👌 Thanks!!👍😘 Also, no I have not covered & tested Bram Stokers Dracula 4K💿!
As always, thank you for your honesty James. To be honest, Footloose wasn't a title that I was planning to add to my collection anyway. However, I ALWAYS wait for your review first before I make my purchases. Thank you for being so honest. This is why we love your channel and rely so much on your expertise. At the end of the day, if a product doesn't live up to its expectation then so be it. It is what it is. You're just reporting the facts. I'm always grateful for the tireless effort that you put into your reviews. Thank you so much. Keep up the great work and please, do take that well earned break. 😊👍
Amen and good on you James! I truly appreciate you and your honestly. It’s how it should be but so often is NOT the case. Most just want the views here and find “quick” ways to get up vids, not all however and you are one the of the great ones here. I’m learning a TON from your vids as I’ve been looking high and low for descriptive vids that compare and show great 4k vs blu ray or even 4k vs 4k from different labels because as I’ve learned; not all 4k’s are the same as different labels sometimes tweak scans to their liking or what they think “is best.” I do have this on pre-order and look forward to getting so I can see what you’re seeing. It’s because of folks like you that I’m trying to do what I do here too with some of my vids. Keep up the great work my man…you’re awesome!
Hmmm, I have the 4k Steelbook preordered. I might keep the preorder since I own no version of the movie. I can always choose whether to use the blu ray or 4k disc. Shame though we didn’t get a straight up improvement.
Keep doing what you’re doing James. All the work and effort you put into your videos is super appreciated by the majority of us, who look forward to hearing your insight on these releases. I’ve based some of my purchases on your reviews. Sleepy Hollow, comes to mind. Anyway, you da man! Keep on keepin’ on. All the best to ya!
From your side by side comparisons the blu ray definitely looks better imo. It's a damn shame these studios can't spend the proper time and effort into these classic releases. Thanks for your honest review.
Thanks for the heads up. I was excited to buy this, but not now. I'll still buy it because I don't have it in my collection on any format, but I'll wait until it's a Black Friday $10 disc or something, like Heat.
Oh damn! I have the STEELBOOK 4K version on preorder! You’re one of the physical media reviewers I trust most. I actually buy my Blu-rays according to your meticulous reviews. I will be canceling my order after seeing your honest review. THANK YOU! 🙏🏼
The thing is. Despite it being a poor 4K transfer this is sadly the best that we're going to get. There must be an issue with the source material. The Steelbook is nice but they should have just remastered the blu ray. It's watchable but definitely not 4K worthy.
The only reason I'll buy it is cause I don't already own it. I appreciate the work that you do in your videos. I was hesitant for awhile to upgrade to 4K til I saw several of your comparisons and saw so many upgrades to the films.
I’ve been subscribed to your channel for a while now. I love your honesty and all the hard work you put into your reviews. I really appreciate it. Please keep doing what you do. You will always have my support. Drew from the UK😁
This is why I regularly watch this channel. You do a lot behind the scenes, you know what you are talking about and your reviews are honest. Don't wear yourself out though James. Can't wait to hear your opinions and honest reviews of the upcoming Cameron films. They look very different and not always in a good way. Take care of yourself and listen to your wife sometimes.
Maybe try some contests and give out some of your blurays of movies you have on 4k then write-off the give awayson your taxes.@@InSearchofPhysicalMedia
Great video, James! Thanks so much for sharing with us. Don't let the malcontents get you down - we love your reviews because of your honesty. Keep doing what you're doing!

Nobody goes through all the detail and work like you do. I appreciate the info and the insight on all of these upcoming 4k’s. I am a new 4K “collector” and you are 100% my go to for movies. I feel like I go in blind for movies that came out before you started your channel, lol. Take care and keep up the excellent work!!

You are probably the most dedicated, honest 4K reviewer I’ve come across. Keep up the great work-your honesty is appreciated! Try not to let the trolls and negative people bother you!
🤔I’m human & It’s definitely hard sometimes when I put my heart❤️🔥& myself out there in these videos, especially due to my severe nerve damage & medical conditions causing low spirit issues to really not let ANY of the nastiness of some degenerate people bother me, but I always try my hardest to just ignore, delete, BAN & move on from all the attacks & hate thrown my way‼️👌 🥰Thanks for your great comments & support, it’s really great hearing this‼️👌 💥I’ll always keep bringing MY HEART❤️🔥, FIRE🔥 & the 💫TRUTH in every video I work diligently to create for all of you!!!🤘😉
Thanks again for the great review, I will put this film on my will buy when on sale (since I don't own the bluray), unlike other great releases i've bought full retail price.
Don’t ever change! I love your videos, and how thorough you test these discs. I want to know if it’s a crappy transfer or not. That’s why I’m here. I think we all want the truth. I don’t know why people would be picking on you for whatever reasons, and I don’t wanna sound like i’m just kissing a$$. All I’m saying is I truly appreciate your videos and keep it up!
Plus by what I’ve heard you say over the last year or so… I think we’re about the same age. I was born in the late 70s, grew up in the 80s as a kid watching all these classic 80s movies. I think why our tastes in movies kind of jive. Ha ha. Now, if we can just get Disney to let somebody release Tombstone on 4K. If you compare the Blu-ray to the directors cut DVD, you’ll notice that the Blu-ray has a brown overtone to it like they were trying to give it this western look, but it kind of dulls out the colors. Just give me what the original movie was intended to be. And please God don’t scrub the grain away lol.
Footloose isn’t my all-time favorite movie, but I do own it on Blu-ray and if it was good, I probably would’ve upgraded…But now, I am glad I know the truth, and will just keep my Blu-ray for now. I wish studios would admit their faults and re-release these discs and correct their mistakes. I was just thinking about planes, trains, and automobiles, and how I wanted to upgrade, but did not. You know Kevin Bacon had that little cameo at the beginning of planes, trains, and automobiles racing for the cab. Maybe we have a Kevin Bacon curse on 4K? Lol
Hi James! Thanks for such a brilliant video. I love every one of your videos, thanks for all of your immense hard work putting them all together. I brought the knightrider German Blu-ray 40th anniversary boxset after your detailed video and have never looked back since! Keep up the great work! 👍👍👍👍👍
Also - huge shout out for this review! You go to extreme lengths for us and your image comparisons have led to me going from owning 0 4k blu rays to about 20 over the past year. I’d be curious what you do for a job and if you’re equally thorough there! These companies should hire you to quality control all their releases.
So to answer your question, as I’ve explained in this video & in roughly my past 100 videos (LOL!!😜) I am a FULL TIME Professional Reviewer & I have been doing this FULL TIME as a professional reviewer for the last many years & this channel is very important & this is how I provide for my family‼️ 💥 So that’s exactly why I explain in these videos that financially supporting each of these video is ⚠️EXTREMELY IMPORTANT, Because that’s the only way I can always continue to create each of these exclusive videos (that you enjoy watching) is with YOU 🫵 (my viewers) continued financial support‼️👌😉 😘Thanks for your nice comments!🤘
Thank you so much James for your heads up saving me money! Paramount does SO much shoddy work. It's infuriating.Such a shame this and American Grafitti are major letdowns.
The reason I followed you immediately is because I instantly saw that you aren't like the rest, you are a true professional and it shows. Thanks for the work that you do!
I am sorry about the way other people are treating you. You do a good job making these reviews! When someone else is insulting you because of what they are doing to you they are actually worse off then you are.
Great review. Thank you. I cancelled my Steelbook. Disappointed with them though. I liked the Steelbook look but I first wanted an improved movie not an expensive Steelbook. Thank you.
I just watched and though not perfect, to me an upgrade and very glad I purchased. If you love the movie, it is absolutely worth buying if you have expectations in check.
Really disappointing. I so wanted this to be a good release. I will have to rethink my steelbook pre-order, although I may still get it as I lost my original in a fire. It sounds like they didn't have access to the original film negative. Thanks for your honest review.
Keep in mind the reason you get bashed is because those other sites get their 4k for free from studios and if you report the truth it makes them look bad.
He gets bashed for different reasons. Part of the reason he gets bashed is he’s one of the very few 4k reviewers on RUclips that reviews virtually every 4k disc that comes out and goes into tons of details. Where as films at home has become a soft simp that is only looking for monetization while the quality of his channel has gone down the drain.
My sentiments exactly. They (other reviewers) believe they're reviewing fairly but they're actually towing the line and trying to get sales through affiliate marketing. More a criticism of the business than the individuals. We still want releases, we just want GOOD releases.
When one reviewer reviewed the 4k of Terms of Endearment and first said he hated all the characters but worse mispronounced Debra Winger's name and knew absolutely nothing about her other work or that she retired from movies to pursue other interests. I no longer use him for information. I got booted from one web site simply for calling out their reviewer.
So the reviewer isn't entiteled to their own opinion about a movie? Movies are subjective. An image transfer is another thing, there the quality can be judged objectively.
Please know how valued and loved you are. Both by God, and by us your fan base (Family is implied 😉). I’m personally so grateful for the service and info you provide.
🥰Thanks for all your great comments & continuing 🥇VIP CLUB🥇 support, it’s really great hearing this‼️👌 💥I’ll always keep bringing MY HEART❤️🔥, FIRE🔥 & the 💫TRUTH in every video I work diligently to create for all of you!!!🤘😉
At least, I know you report the truth as you see it and that’s important for the community. Thanks again, brother, just liking and commenting and sharing this video to keep the algorithm happy
😘Thanks for all your support & great comments, it’s really great hearing this‼️👌 💥I’ll always keep giving MY HEART 💙& the TRUTH in every video I create!!!🤘😉
If it's not a noticeable upgrade I never invest in the 4k and keep or buy the BD if being the case. I don't support mediocre 4k if a good transfer could have been done.
I'm looking forward to Kindergarten Cop. Thanks for that review. I appreciate honest reviews. 4K movies are not cheap. Space is at a premium at my house. If the upgrade isn't worth it, I'll stick with the DVD or Blu-ray I already have.
Paramount gonna paramount. Its a straight gamble on most of their releases. I really enjoyed watching certain reviews change in real time but hey schills gonna schill.
This is disappointing, I actually just preordered the steelbook yesterday. This is one of my mother’s favorite movies so I was going to watch it with her.
I bought the James Cameron titanic on 4k more recently with gift money at Walmart and I couldn’t agree more with the review score you have of it. Titanic truly deserves a 9.8 for that it is easy to tell that you do a lot of analysis.
I totally agree. Personally, I was on the fence with Titanic untill I saw James’s review. In both video and audio quality, James was spot on. He definitely made a new subscriber out of me.
I appreciate your honesty and hard work! I know I can trust your reviews. You’re one of the few reviewers that actually knows what they’re talking about.
Don’t mind the haters. You get bashed for different reasons. Part of the reason you get bashed is because you’re one of the very few 4k reviewers on RUclips that reviews virtually every 4k disc that comes out and goes into tons of details. Where as films at home has become a soft simp that is only looking for monetization while the quality of his channel has gone down the drain.
Ok I don’t get why anyone would bash you. Why wouldn’t people want the truth before they invest in something? If other RUclips “reviewers” are bashing you then it’s only because they aren’t up to your caliber of expertise in this area and they are simply jealous and envious. I cancelled my preorder of Footloose due to your honest review and comparison of the 4K vs the previous Blu-ray. And I’m happy to save my money and keep my current Footloose BluRay. Plus I went ahead and bought the BluRay complete series of Knight Rider from Germany with the restored episodes, all Monk Bluray seasons so far, Leave it to Beaver BluRay complete series, and Columbo complete series on BluRay all because of your professional, above and beyond reviews. My local PLEX library has grown in quality by leaps and bounds due to your suggestions on which versions of releases to buy. And I frequently use your links to purchase them. Because you’ve earned my trust. As well as many others’ trust. So ignore the hate man, you will end up on top because you have solid character qualities. Take care 😎👍.
BOOO!!! These studios need more PROFESSIONALISM when it comes to releasing physical media of these beloved classics. No excuse for this result. Once again I will skip purchasing one of my favorite films on 4K. Thanks for the honest review!
Thanks for the heads up on this release. I will not being buying this. I was very disappointed on what Paramount did for Star Trek IV The Voyage Home. The picture was brownish and muted. If studios are going to release 4K's, they need to do it right.
Great job at comparing the videos. I’m so glad that you did an honest review. I watched the 4K of footloose and I didn’t think the transfer was all that great. I saw a review on the blu ray release website and they gave it a good review which made me think have I got a crappy tv? Then I saw your review and I feel so much better, my tv is professionally calibrated as well, it’s good to know that it’s not just me that thinks the transfer is not great. Thanks for your hard work and great videos.
Thank you for your hard work and honest reviews. I had similar conversations with people years ago about why some Blu-Rays weren’t any better than the DVD release. There were a few movies that all they did was upscaled the DVD scan to 1080p. I don’t have Footloose on BR, so would it be worth it for me to bother with the 4K, or would it better to save my money and get the BR release?
So as I was sharing in this video if you don’t own this film at all yet then just buy the 4K UltraHD💿 Blu Ray set:⤵️ ➡️ amzn.to/4804a0P so that way you can actually see how bad both version are & then you can decide which is the worst way to watch this film LOL!!😂 😘Thanks for your great comments & I Hope this helps you decide!!👍😉
@@InSearchofPhysicalMedia Yes but if you do go and buy the new 4k set you are telling the companies that it's OK to put out below average 4k restorations like this and encourage them to carry on with these poor efforts.
@@garytilford6503 I agree but to be honest at the same time I feel if 1 person buys it versus the hundreds that are right NOW canceling their 4K💿 orders it will still send a very strong & clear message & in the end it will be OK!!👍😘 Hopefully this makes sense, in my mind it makes some sense but I’m also extremely burnt out & exhausted🥵 so who knows how this comes out sounding LOL!!!🤪😜
I always like your videos because, indeed, you share honest reviews with your audience 😄 Still, I always do my research before buying anything 🙂 Can't even conceive why people would post bad comments on your channel, unless they're complete imbecile. Keep up your excellent work 😁
Would you say the 4K Blu Ray version is worth getting for those who have never owned the movie before? I was first introduced to it when my parents got me the soundtrack on vinyl about 5 years ago, and I thought of getting the movie itself, but I decided to wait for the 4K release. But now hearing the transfer is not as good as I hoped it’d be, I’m questioning whether I should still get the movie. What do you say on that?
👍I was asked this exact same question earlier today & here was my reply:⤵️⤵️ So as I was sharing in this video if you don’t own this film at all yet then just buy the 4K UltraHD💿 Blu Ray set:⤵️ ➡️ amzn.to/4804a0P so that way you can actually see how bad both version are & then you can decide which is the worst way to watch this film LOL!!😂 😘Thanks for your great comments & I Hope this helps you decide!!👍😉
Looks like a mixed bag, some of the colors look better on the blu ray and some look better on the 4K, the grass and outdoor scenes on the 4K look inferior to the blu ray which is insane. Also, have you ever seen the 2011 remake to this lol?
I'll take your word over the others any day. If they bash you for telling the truth then when everyone else buys this 4K and they don't see what they were told by those reviewers on their screens then the dishonesty will cost them more subscribers and viewers. I watch your channel for information on everything I consider buying on 4K Blu-ray. I will continue to do so. I also subscribe to J's Blu-Rays for unboxings that show a detailed look at the physical aspects of a release. I watch yours for in-depth review of audio/visual quality. I'm glad you're not willing to sacrifice your integrity for views/monetization. I know I can trust your reviews to be genuine and honest and I appreciate that. Your hard work will pay off and the bashers will reap the lies they're sowing when it costs them not only the views they depend on to keep their channels going, but also their subscribers once they realize they lack integrity. Keep doing it your way. You'll only succeed. Take a good break from all this and take all the time you need to focus on what's important. Burnout among other things can happen very easily especially when you go at it like you do. I'll still be subscribed to your channel and waiting for new videos when you are able to return. 😎👍🏻👍🏻 God bless you & your family James.
😘Thanks so much for your great comments & support, it’s really great hearing this‼️👌 💥I’ll always keep bringing MY FIRE🔥 & the TRUTH in every video I create!!!👍😉 ✝️GOD Bless you & your family too!!
I'm glad you're so honest about this as I only trust a few. I bought the Steelbook. As soon as it arrived I put it on and was shocked at what I was seeing. They should have left the film grain in as it's natural. However I think this is sadly the best that we're going to get. There must be something wrong with the source material. It's watchable for me but it's definitely not 4K! 😢
Thanks for the honest review. It’s a shame Paramount dropped the ball again with the 4K release of a mid-classic (old but not that old) that superbly reflects its time of origin. (That studio is so inconsistent I sometimes wonder if there’s some kind of rivalry between in house teams.) You are indeed one of the few reviewers of movies or physical media releases that have been able to keep their honesty and integrity. Many others have crumbled under the pressure of media companies and simply became shills (I hate that word) for the industry - probably in many cases out of economic necessity or just to be kept “in the loop”. So, please continue. Your time and effort are not wasted, they are deeply appreciated. One thing though: I wouldn’t use the term “must buy” inflationary to such an extent. You are breaking my bank. 😉
Remembers me of the first release of Avatar on 4k were nearly everyone promoted the Avatar 4k for the 4k Disc of the year... 🙃 Sometimes I questioning myself, if the big review websites get paid by some studios to write a good review.🤔😶🌫

This is why I regularly watch this channel. You do a lot behind the scenes, you know what you are talking about and your reviews are honest. Don't wear yourself out though James. Can't wait to hear your opinions and honest reviews of the upcoming Cameron films. They look very different and not always in a good way. Take care of yourself and listen to your wife sometimes.
Somehow, we need to get James more subscribers!
@@ricogomez4020 😍I agree ☝️ LOL!!!😁 Definitely wish more people would discover all my videos‼️👌
Maybe try some contests and give out some of your blurays of movies you have on 4k then write-off the give awayson your taxes.@@InSearchofPhysicalMedia
Great video, James! Thanks so much for sharing with us. Don't let the malcontents get you down - we love your reviews because of your honesty. Keep doing what you're doing!

Much appreciation. Thank you James
Nobody goes through all the detail and work like you do. I appreciate the info and the insight on all of these upcoming 4k’s. I am a new 4K “collector” and you are 100% my go to for movies. I feel like I go in blind for movies that came out before you started your channel, lol. Take care and keep up the excellent work!!
🥰Thanks for all your great comments & support‼️👌
💥I’ll always keep bringing MY HEART❤️🔥, FIRE🔥 & the 💫TRUTH in every video I work diligently to create for all of you!!!🤘😉

😘Thanks for your great comments, it’s really great hearing this‼️👌
💥I’ll always keep bringing MY FIRE🔥 & the TRUTH in every video I create!!!👍😉
I love your channel. You do a fantastic job with your reviews. Keep up the good work. 👍
You are probably the most dedicated, honest 4K reviewer I’ve come across. Keep up the great work-your honesty is appreciated! Try not to let the trolls and negative people bother you!
🤔I’m human & It’s definitely hard sometimes when I put my heart❤️🔥& myself out there in these videos, especially due to my severe nerve damage & medical conditions causing low spirit issues to really not let ANY of the nastiness of some degenerate people bother me, but I always try my hardest to just ignore, delete, BAN & move on from all the attacks & hate thrown my way‼️👌
🥰Thanks for your great comments & support, it’s really great hearing this‼️👌
💥I’ll always keep bringing MY HEART❤️🔥, FIRE🔥 & the 💫TRUTH in every video I work diligently to create for all of you!!!🤘😉
Thanks again for the great review, I will put this film on my will buy when on sale (since I don't own the bluray), unlike other great releases i've bought full retail price.
I always appreciate your honesty James, keep up the great work! 👍🏻
I appreciate your hard work and thanks for the reliable reviews of discs. I guess I will wait for this one to go on sale for $14.99 or less.
Don’t ever change! I love your videos, and how thorough you test these discs. I want to know if it’s a crappy transfer or not. That’s why I’m here. I think we all want the truth. I don’t know why people would be picking on you for whatever reasons, and I don’t wanna sound like i’m just kissing a$$. All I’m saying is I truly appreciate your videos and keep it up!
😘Thanks for your great comments, it’s really great hearing this‼️👌
💥I’ll always keep bringing MY FIRE🔥 & the TRUTH in every video I create!!!👍😉
Plus by what I’ve heard you say over the last year or so… I think we’re about the same age. I was born in the late 70s, grew up in the 80s as a kid watching all these classic 80s movies. I think why our tastes in movies kind of jive. Ha ha. Now, if we can just get Disney to let somebody release Tombstone on 4K. If you compare the Blu-ray to the directors cut DVD, you’ll notice that the Blu-ray has a brown overtone to it like they were trying to give it this western look, but it kind of dulls out the colors. Just give me what the original movie was intended to be. And please God don’t scrub the grain away lol.
Footloose isn’t my all-time favorite movie, but I do own it on Blu-ray and if it was good, I probably would’ve upgraded…But now, I am glad I know the truth, and will just keep my Blu-ray for now. I wish studios would admit their faults and re-release these discs and correct their mistakes. I was just thinking about planes, trains, and automobiles, and how I wanted to upgrade, but did not. You know Kevin Bacon had that little cameo at the beginning of planes, trains, and automobiles racing for the cab. Maybe we have a Kevin Bacon curse on 4K? Lol
Hi James! Thanks for such a brilliant video. I love every one of your videos, thanks for all of your immense hard work putting them all together. I brought the knightrider German Blu-ray 40th anniversary boxset after your detailed video and have never looked back since! Keep up the great work! 👍👍👍👍👍
Appreciate the honestly, I don't understand why anyone complain about you being honest, great channel.
This FOOTLOOSE 4k review is why you are the best and most trusted when it comes to 4k reviews! God Bless you!
😘Thanks, I appreciate this‼️👌
You are the Tucker Carlson of 4k reviewers and that's why they fear you.@@InSearchofPhysicalMedia
Sad. I knew it was an older scan, but sound has been a horrible oversight on a lot of reviews
Also - huge shout out for this review! You go to extreme lengths for us and your image comparisons have led to me going from owning 0 4k blu rays to about 20 over the past year. I’d be curious what you do for a job and if you’re equally thorough there! These companies should hire you to quality control all their releases.
So to answer your question, as I’ve explained in this video & in roughly my past 100 videos (LOL!!😜) I am a FULL TIME Professional Reviewer & I have been doing this FULL TIME as a professional reviewer for the last many years & this channel is very important & this is how I provide for my family‼️
💥 So that’s exactly why I explain in these videos that financially supporting each of these video is ⚠️EXTREMELY IMPORTANT, Because that’s the only way I can always continue to create each of these exclusive videos (that you enjoy watching) is with YOU 🫵 (my viewers) continued financial support‼️👌😉
😘Thanks for your nice comments!🤘
Thank you so much James for your heads up saving me money! Paramount does SO much shoddy work. It's infuriating.Such a shame this and American Grafitti are major letdowns.
The reason I followed you immediately is because I instantly saw that you aren't like the rest, you are a true professional and it shows. Thanks for the work that you do!
😍Appreciate your nice words, 💥I’ll always keep bringing MY FIRE🔥 & the TRUTH in every video I create!!!🤘😉THANKS!!
I am sorry about the way other people are treating you. You do a good job making these reviews! When someone else is insulting you because of what they are doing to you they are actually worse off then you are.
Great review. Thank you. I cancelled my Steelbook. Disappointed with them though. I liked the Steelbook look but I first wanted an improved movie not an expensive Steelbook. Thank you.
I just watched and though not perfect, to me an upgrade and very glad I purchased. If you love the movie, it is absolutely worth buying if you have expectations in check.
Really disappointing. I so wanted this to be a good release. I will have to rethink my steelbook pre-order, although I may still get it as I lost my original in a fire. It sounds like they didn't have access to the original film negative. Thanks for your honest review.
Great review! Definitely will be keeping my bluray
I have canceled my order I, Hope Major League will be a good 4k blu ray
Keep in mind the reason you get bashed is because those other sites get their 4k for free from studios and if you report the truth it makes them look bad.
He gets bashed for different reasons. Part of the reason he gets bashed is he’s one of the very few 4k reviewers on RUclips that reviews virtually every 4k disc that comes out and goes into tons of details. Where as films at home has become a soft simp that is only looking for monetization while the quality of his channel has gone down the drain.
. Films at home is a liberal moron
My sentiments exactly. They (other reviewers) believe they're reviewing fairly but they're actually towing the line and trying to get sales through affiliate marketing. More a criticism of the business than the individuals. We still want releases, we just want GOOD releases.
Shots fired at films at home, but I can’t help but agree lol
@ScruffyWarlord that's how I feel people complaining about True lies and Aliens etc how do you know till you view the disc like he does
When one reviewer reviewed the 4k of Terms of Endearment and first said he hated all the characters but worse mispronounced Debra Winger's name and knew absolutely nothing about her other work or that she retired from movies to pursue other interests. I no longer use him for information. I got booted from one web site simply for calling out their reviewer.
So the reviewer isn't entiteled to their own opinion about a movie? Movies are subjective. An image transfer is another thing, there the quality can be judged objectively.
Thank You James , I trust your review and honesty 👍🏻
Great review as James, disppointed about Footloose had been looking forward to. Conan release was great.
Haces un gran trabajo. Así no compramos a ciegas. Enhorabuena.
While I don’t care about Footloose as a movie, I appreciate you doing your in-depth review for those that do and keeping it real for them.
Before I buy 4ks I watch your reviews . Thank you
Or Adam (365)
Thanks for your honesty. Great video and review. Keep up the great work!
Please know how valued and loved you are. Both by God, and by us your fan base (Family is implied 😉). I’m personally so grateful for the service and info you provide.
🥰Thanks for all your great comments & continuing 🥇VIP CLUB🥇 support, it’s really great hearing this‼️👌
💥I’ll always keep bringing MY HEART❤️🔥, FIRE🔥 & the 💫TRUTH in every video I work diligently to create for all of you!!!🤘😉
I appreciate your integrity… I’ll will definitely skip this one. Thanks once again for the fantastic review.
Thanks for this. I'll stick with the blu ray.
Keep doing what you do, brother. I appreciate honesty over what they think I would want to hear. I appreciate your hard work.
Thanks for this review and being so honest - this is really helpful
At least, I know you report the truth as you see it and that’s important for the community. Thanks again, brother, just liking and commenting and sharing this video to keep the algorithm happy
😘Thanks for all your support & great comments, it’s really great hearing this‼️👌
💥I’ll always keep giving MY HEART 💙& the TRUTH in every video I create!!!🤘😉
If it's not a noticeable upgrade I never invest in the 4k and keep or buy the BD if being the case. I don't support mediocre 4k if a good transfer could have been done.
I'm looking forward to Kindergarten Cop. Thanks for that review. I appreciate honest reviews. 4K movies are not cheap. Space is at a premium at my house. If the upgrade isn't worth it, I'll stick with the DVD or Blu-ray I already have.
Paramount gonna paramount. Its a straight gamble on most of their releases. I really enjoyed watching certain reviews change in real time but hey schills gonna schill.
This is disappointing, I actually just preordered the steelbook yesterday. This is one of my mother’s favorite movies so I was going to watch it with her.
I bought the James Cameron titanic on 4k more recently with gift money at Walmart and I couldn’t agree more with the review score you have of it. Titanic truly deserves a 9.8 for that it is easy to tell that you do a lot of analysis.
I totally agree. Personally, I was on the fence with Titanic untill I saw James’s review. In both video and audio quality, James was spot on. He definitely made a new subscriber out of me.
I appreciate your honesty and hard work! I know I can trust your reviews. You’re one of the few reviewers that actually knows what they’re talking about.
Thanks very much for your very honest review regards Nick 🇬🇧
Don’t mind the haters. You get bashed for different reasons. Part of the reason you get bashed is because you’re one of the very few 4k reviewers on RUclips that reviews virtually every 4k disc that comes out and goes into tons of details. Where as films at home has become a soft simp that is only looking for monetization while the quality of his channel has gone down the drain.
I agree that Films at Home has declined greatly. James offers much more thorough reviews that are totally honest.
Ok I don’t get why anyone would bash you. Why wouldn’t people want the truth before they invest in something? If other RUclips “reviewers” are bashing you then it’s only because they aren’t up to your caliber of expertise in this area and they are simply jealous and envious. I cancelled my preorder of Footloose due to your honest review and comparison of the 4K vs the previous Blu-ray. And I’m happy to save my money and keep my current Footloose BluRay. Plus I went ahead and bought the BluRay complete series of Knight Rider from Germany with the restored episodes, all Monk Bluray seasons so far, Leave it to Beaver BluRay complete series, and Columbo complete series on BluRay all because of your professional, above and beyond reviews. My local PLEX library has grown in quality by leaps and bounds due to your suggestions on which versions of releases to buy. And I frequently use your links to purchase them. Because you’ve earned my trust. As well as many others’ trust. So ignore the hate man, you will end up on top because you have solid character qualities. Take care 😎👍.
tanks you so much for your great review you deserve 5 stars for be honest with your reader fan of physical media thanks again big aplause to you.⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
James antes de comprar miro sibtienes la review. Gran trabajo.
BOOO!!!
These studios need more PROFESSIONALISM when it comes to releasing physical media of these beloved classics. No excuse for this result.
Once again I will skip purchasing one of my favorite films on 4K.
Thanks for the honest review!
Thanks for the heads up on this release. I will not being buying this. I was very disappointed on what Paramount did for Star Trek IV The Voyage Home. The picture was brownish and muted. If studios are going to release 4K's, they need to do it right.
Thanks for sharing ...the new 4k version is definitely not worth buying.😥
Thanks for your honest review, will cross this off my want list. Thanks for all your hard work and dedication. CHEERS.
Great job at comparing the videos. I’m so glad that you did an honest review. I watched the 4K of footloose and I didn’t think the transfer was all that great. I saw a review on the blu ray release website and they gave it a good review which made me think have I got a crappy tv? Then I saw your review and I feel so much better, my tv is professionally calibrated as well, it’s good to know that it’s not just me that thinks the transfer is not great. Thanks for your hard work and great videos.
Thank you for your hard work and honest reviews. I had similar conversations with people years ago about why some Blu-Rays weren’t any better than the DVD release. There were a few movies that all they did was upscaled the DVD scan to 1080p. I don’t have Footloose on BR, so would it be worth it for me to bother with the 4K, or would it better to save my money and get the BR release?
So as I was sharing in this video if you don’t own this film at all yet then just buy the 4K UltraHD💿 Blu Ray set:⤵️
➡️ amzn.to/4804a0P
so that way you can actually see how bad both version are & then you can decide which is the worst way to watch this film LOL!!😂
😘Thanks for your great comments & I Hope this helps you decide!!👍😉
@@InSearchofPhysicalMedia I must have missed that part🤦🏼♂️. Thanks for replying though.
@@InSearchofPhysicalMedia Yes but if you do go and buy the new 4k set you are telling the companies that it's OK to put out below average 4k restorations like this and encourage them to carry on with these poor efforts.
@@garytilford6503 I agree but to be honest at the same time I feel if 1 person buys it versus the hundreds that are right NOW canceling their 4K💿 orders it will still send a very strong & clear message & in the end it will be OK!!👍😘
Hopefully this makes sense, in my mind it makes some sense but I’m also extremely burnt out & exhausted🥵 so who knows how this comes out sounding LOL!!!🤪😜
@@InSearchofPhysicalMedia Agreed. I see your point. Now go take a well earned week off and spend time with your wife.
Great Job. Thanks for your honest review
Keep your integrity James. You're the better person and you have a great channel and you are appreciated
🤘Thanks!!
Good review. Keep it up.
Love your channel. Really look forward to your reviews. Keep doing the great job you are doing 👏👏👏
😘Thanks, I appreciate this‼️
Thank you for the hard work and honest review
Appreciate you James!!! Thank you for your amazing work Bro!!!👍💯
Thank you for your reviews, I was so looking forward to tne Boogens now I'll pass on it.
I always like your videos because, indeed, you share honest reviews with your audience 😄 Still, I always do my research before buying anything 🙂 Can't even conceive why people would post bad comments on your channel, unless they're complete imbecile. Keep up your excellent work 😁
Great review as always, was looking forward to this 4k so very disappointing news.
All I can say is..,.You the man ! Fantastic review ! Love Love Love your honesty. Thank you James !!!! ❤❤❤
Glad you enjoyed this video‼️
💥I always put my ❤️🔥 into each of these videos I create!!😘
Thank you!!! Just cancelled my order.
Would you say the 4K Blu Ray version is worth getting for those who have never owned the movie before? I was first introduced to it when my parents got me the soundtrack on vinyl about 5 years ago, and I thought of getting the movie itself, but I decided to wait for the 4K release. But now hearing the transfer is not as good as I hoped it’d be, I’m questioning whether I should still get the movie. What do you say on that?
👍I was asked this exact same question earlier today & here was my reply:⤵️⤵️
So as I was sharing in this video if you don’t own this film at all yet then just buy the 4K UltraHD💿 Blu Ray set:⤵️
➡️ amzn.to/4804a0P
so that way you can actually see how bad both version are & then you can decide which is the worst way to watch this film LOL!!😂
😘Thanks for your great comments & I Hope this helps you decide!!👍😉
Thanks for your efforts..
Looks like a mixed bag, some of the colors look better on the blu ray and some look better on the 4K, the grass and outdoor scenes on the 4K look inferior to the blu ray which is insane. Also, have you ever seen the 2011 remake to this lol?
The UHD looks unnaturally yellow for sure.
Actually that is how it is paramount old blu rays they would have this weird blue filter compared to 4ks films are meant to look warm
Damn. I preordered the steelbook too. Guess I’m selling it.
I'll take your word over the others any day. If they bash you for telling the truth then when everyone else buys this 4K and they don't see what they were told by those reviewers on their screens then the dishonesty will cost them more subscribers and viewers. I watch your channel for information on everything I consider buying on 4K Blu-ray. I will continue to do so. I also subscribe to J's Blu-Rays for unboxings that show a detailed look at the physical aspects of a release. I watch yours for in-depth review of audio/visual quality. I'm glad you're not willing to sacrifice your integrity for views/monetization. I know I can trust your reviews to be genuine and honest and I appreciate that. Your hard work will pay off and the bashers will reap the lies they're sowing when it costs them not only the views they depend on to keep their channels going, but also their subscribers once they realize they lack integrity. Keep doing it your way. You'll only succeed. Take a good break from all this and take all the time you need to focus on what's important. Burnout among other things can happen very easily especially when you go at it like you do. I'll still be subscribed to your channel and waiting for new videos when you are able to return. 😎👍🏻👍🏻 God bless you & your family James.
😘Thanks so much for your great comments & support, it’s really great hearing this‼️👌
💥I’ll always keep bringing MY FIRE🔥 & the TRUTH in every video I create!!!👍😉
✝️GOD Bless you & your family too!!
U saved me money, thank you
👍Glad I could truly help you out‼️
Hello, does the 4k disc of the footloose movie contain Spanish audio or subtitles? Saludos de Chile
I'm glad you're so honest about this as I only trust a few. I bought the Steelbook. As soon as it arrived I put it on and was shocked at what I was seeing. They should have left the film grain in as it's natural. However I think this is sadly the best that we're going to get. There must be something wrong with the source material. It's watchable for me but it's definitely not 4K! 😢
Thanks for the honest review. It’s a shame Paramount dropped the ball again with the 4K release of a mid-classic (old but not that old) that superbly reflects its time of origin. (That studio is so inconsistent I sometimes wonder if there’s some kind of rivalry between in house teams.) You are indeed one of the few reviewers of movies or physical media releases that have been able to keep their honesty and integrity. Many others have crumbled under the pressure of media companies and simply became shills (I hate that word) for the industry - probably in many cases out of economic necessity or just to be kept “in the loop”. So, please continue. Your time and effort are not wasted, they are deeply appreciated. One thing though: I wouldn’t use the term “must buy” inflationary to such an extent. You are breaking my bank. 😉
What is it with studios these days? How hard is it to produce a good 4K?
Such incompetency lately!
Remembers me of the first release of Avatar on 4k were nearly everyone promoted the Avatar 4k for the 4k Disc of the year... 🙃
Sometimes I questioning myself, if the big review websites get paid by some studios to write a good review.🤔😶🌫
