First 4K Ultra HD BR Reviews

Thanks for the links. Seems like the content providers are (understandably) in a bit of a rush to get these out, and are using the 2K DI instead of remastering it from the 5K originals, at least in these two examples. Hopefully, we see some film-sourced movies in the near future, which are scanned at least at 4K, if not 8K, so the source is even better quality. That, or a 4K DI straight from the 5K source, would be very nice.
 
Yes, and the odd thing is, the Atmos soundtracks are in the can already for several of these movies movies, and we already have them on Blu-ray. If they had focused on those movies, and just laid the existing Atmos audio track onto the disc, seems like it would have been relatively easy. I am no film expert, so maybe there's more to it than that.
