Thanks for the promo. Used it. Cool to hear your collaborating with GRUV
can I order it from your link I'm in the uk
That Freddy Krueger head is so realistic and creepy. It looks like he's staring me right in the eyes 😂
Yoooo for real. It kept pulling my vision to the eyes lol
LMAO I was like eww Michael your eyes, then I look over at Freddy and he's looking right into my damn soul!
I loved this movie in theaters, but can’t imagine streaming it on Peacock. 4K and Blu-ray are preferable these days for this kind of movie.
I can't watch anything streamed anymore. Crappy compressed quality ruins everything!
@@stretch90 I thought I was the only one. I only stream these days to take a look at Dolby vision when it is missing on the discs. I spend about 3 minutes and have to turn it off because the quality especially the sound is so bad. Compressed Atmos is a real joke.
@@a-v-karin7617 yeah the sound is so thin and empty. Streaming completely ruins the experience.
@@a-v-karin7617 Dolby Atmos is lossless. Dolby Digital (which is all streaming can handle) is lossy. (So basically a lossy 7.1.4.) So lossy Atmos vs lossless Atmos is about as easy a decision as DD/DTS vs Dolby TrueHD/DTS-HDMA. Not even a close call, the disc wins.
And also, Disney couldn’t mix sugar into coffee let alone mix a proper Atmos track for disc or streaming.
@@shanerollins3736 I agree completely.
I pre-ordered this as soon as it was announced. I went to the theaters and was blown away, and was disappointed to hear it was a boxoffice failure. So when the disc hit physical I wanted to fully support it.
This film was absolutely astonishing, there was a lot of mixed reviews, but when I seen it in the cinema, it made me realise how viking films or shows should follow suit with it being traditional
Watched this whole video waiting for Freddy to wink at me 🤣
I just found this channel. Makes me happy seeing so many people caring about physical media.
Welcome! Happy you found us. Follow along for more because there’s a great community here
This was the first film I saw at a Dolbe enhanced theater, and it was a wonderful experience. I don’t have a 4k set-up, but the blu ray is still stunning and one of the most striking films I’ve seen. Definitely in my top 20 and on the edge of my top 10.
What do you mean by Dolby enhanced? Are you referring to “Dolby Cinema at AMC” ?
@@xItsmeFirex yes, that is what I meant
This was a day 1 purchase for me. Saw it in Dolby opening weekend and it’s my favorite Hollywood movie of this year easily. Saw it again at my local art house and then watched the 4K disc with the commentary. The special features were nice for a new release and I loved the picture/sound. 10/10 all around
I been having trouble getting my hands on this 4k so I’ll definitely have to order it. Thanks for the review!
You continue to do a great job and I continue to enjoy your videos and lately your CZcams shorts. Thanks, Much appreciated!
Movie looks absolutely stunning in 4k, as far as im concerned eggers is 3 for 3 in my book
I Noticed you mentioned that Eggers wanted it to be Longer......I wonder if we will get a Directors Cut down the Road that would be Cool.
Eggers Said there won’t be one, but you never know! We can at least hope, right?
Freddy, Jeff, Michael….the gangs all here.
I appreciate the comments about see the 4K disc vs streaming this is informative I think for many ppl to know
Just joined your $2/month membership, love the channel! Great review, I love this movie so glad they made a great 4k disc.
Freddy dogging us is unsettling 😰😂
Great job Jeff on this review! I already bought the 4k and I agree with you 100%
I'm exited for this one. I'm lovin the new back drop too... Myers and Freddy look fantastic... very cool. 😎
Really in depth review!!
Haven’t seen it, but will definitely be picking it up soon.
Loved this transfer and how he used all natural light even in the darkest scenes (using only the light from the fires, etc.). Just for fun I had to check out the stream on Peacock because I knew it would look like a hot mess. It didn’t disappoint (as in, it was as bad as expected) and proves once again why the disc needs to be the way you watch it! Another great review! Krueger and Myers approved!
Streaming is such trash. My wife was watching Twister the other day on Netflix. I only watched the first few minutes but the print was disgusting, strewn with near-constant dirt. My Blu of the film is somewhat dated but still drastically superior.
@@ddc2957 Twister is not on netflix just looked i was going to see how bad it was.
@@ddc2957 Twister is not on usa netflix but canada has it.
I’m referring to Netflix Australia.
The only stuff I watch on Netflix is stuff that isn’t on disc. Why settle when I don’t have to?
As for Twister, why that hasn’t come to 4K yet is a mystery I can’t figure out.
Absolutely loved The Northman, can’t wait to watch it again at home. I - as a big horror fan - love the new backdrop!!
I waited nearly a month for this film to be in stock again and it was well worth the wait. I was not able to see it in theaters and I did not want to watch it on a streaming service. I only watched one trailer for this film and went in completely blind. I was blown away by how great it was. Definitely one of my favorite films of the year and the 4k is gorgeous.
Hello from Oregon, we watched this at the theater and it was good. Can't wait to pick up the 4k edition and on my OLED. On a side note, watching the US Open there in Massachusetts. Thank you for the review.
Just watched this for the first time on a 4k disc.
WOW! I think this is a true masterpiece and his best work. Beautiful cinematography and the way he represents Norse mythology is awesome.
Hey Jeff! New subscriber to the channel, love the videos and super helpful for me being a new collector. You’ve honestly become my favorite channel lately and you give a ton of great insight into the hobby so thanks so much ❤. Can’t wait for 100k 🎉!
It’s amazing that I started to collect physical media only recently and now when I stream anything I get pulled out of movie because I see blurriness especially in fast pace scenes. Lol I have awesome internet too. I used to be able to save money but now I’m obsessed.
I rented this movie on prime video when it came out. I honestly think the dark sense in this film looked pretty good even streaming it. But definitely looking forward getting the 4K disk!
I just bought it today in 4K. Streaming just doesn't hold a candle to the full quality of what a physical disc can provide. It should look amazing on my Sony 4K OLED.
Streaming doesn’t even stack upto Blu-Ray in my experience. 4K is just overkill for destroying streams.
Love slow burn, Love The Witch! Can’t wait to pick this up on disc.
I missed this at the theater so I waited for the stream to know if I’d be interested in the 4K disk. I really liked it and will be picking it up soon.
Loved seeing this in a theater! Looking forward to watching it again on disc. FYI, Freddy staring at us is kinda creepy, lol.
Man, excellent review, thank you. I just got into blu rays and 4k blu rays a few months ago and my very first 4k disc purchase was The Revenant, a film tailor made for the 4k disc, very similar probably to The Northman, i.e. lots of great outdoor scenery with natural lighting, often times at night and dawn/dusk.
Same here, 1st 4K Blu-ray disc was The Revenant back in 2016! Although I’ve been collecting Blu-ray’s since 2012 and my 1st Blu-ray was Red Dawn lol. I started on 4K collecting a couple years ago😎🤙🏻
@@pete49327 oh mannn actually I don’t remember what my 2nd 4K Blu-ray was sadly lol
Totally got the 4k instead of streaming. Holy crap!!! It's amazing 💯💯
Would it really hurt the movie if you watch it in blue ray? I have an average TV, only 55inches
@@nosuchthing8 There would be less quality, but it wouldn’t be as bad as streaming where it’s all crushed to hell. Besides, if you wait until Black Friday, this will be $15-$20.
@@shanerollins3736 thank you sir!
@@shanerollins3736 thanks, good to know
Yessss. Loved this movie and loved the 4k. Great review!
Love VVitch and Lighthouse...can't wait to see this one.
While I don't plan on watching that movie anytime soon, I definitely agree watching a movie on a physical home release over streaming.
I like the new backdrop, it's new and different.
Great review! I gotta pick this one up I loved the Vikings series on Netflix so this is a must buy for me!
The backdrop is cool
G'day Jeff
I saw this movie in early May at the cinema and loved it..unfortunately this was not a box office success that it should of been and with a great cast..got it on 4k disc and wow the 4k transfer is brilliant with dolby vision and the dolby atmos sound is phenomenal..I recommend on buying this on 4k disc..great video jeff keep them coming mate...👍
Oh man that Freddy is so creepy just staring at us!😰
Just grabbed this can't wait to watch it.
Was so salty about missing out on its theatrical release. That’s for the heads up on this one!
So many great dark scenes in this movie. It's almost like the director made this movie specifically for OLED screens.
Freddy’s staring into my soul lmao
Great video as always. You should check your sound levels in this one though, there's quite a bit of peaking.
I was waiting for this review lol👏👏👏
Thanks Jeff!!
Just ordered it with your link! Been waiting for your review. I knew as soon as I saw the trailer, it would look awful on streaming. Especially on my LED TV with crappy black levels.
I had that same problem with Obi-Wan Kenobi. the 6th episode where they had night scenes. I couldn't see anything. it was all washed out in black. I didn't know streaming can't handle night scenes?! I do remember hearing about the Game of Thrones episode.
Love the Freddy bust! That goddamn thing freaked me out through the whole video! I was waiting for it to blink, smile, attack you. Super Freaky
Thanks a lot. Allready preordered and looking forward release on 07.07. here in Germany.
Best Regards and kepp going✌️
I was impressed with this in the theater, enjoyed the trippy parts you really have to go with it and keep Norse mythology in mind.
Once again excellent review man. I had a great time watching this film in theaters so I can't wait to get my 4K copy too.
I just want to ask you something, what are the TV settings that you use when you you're going to watch movies in Blu Ray and in 4K ? It would be very interesting if you made a video about that
kreshBacon
For TV settings it's best to turn everything off, all the processing
Love that Myers 🤩🤩🤩 great video 🤓
Incredible film. So glad I gave it a viewing in the theater.
Saw this in the theater and really loved it. I got the 4K disc on release day, although I haven't gotten around to watching it yet. I'm on vacation this coming week, and one of the plans is to catch up on some of the unwatched movies that have been piling up in my collection and this may very well be one of them.
Some comparisons would have been nice, to substantiate the streaming vs disc point
picked it up yesterday at target! such a great movie imo!
I think I'm going to stream it. Just kidding Jeff. Watched it tonight on 4k disc, good packaging. Movie was interesting, definitely a piece of art.
That freddy statue on the left is giving me the creeps lol
That Freddie Krugar is unnerving
Peacock streaming also doesn't have closed captions, which this movie needs with some of the deep accents.
I watched Dr. Strange on streaming yesterday. And it looked better than most of the 4k Blus I have. I was astonished by the picture quality, and having IMAX enhanced really helps. This is still not the case with a lot of streaming but it proves they can do it if they want to. And it proves it is coming.
This is one I really want to see.
Im glad you addressed streaming this on Peacock Jeff. I saw this in theaters and i did not get passed the opening moments when i decided to stream it. I turned it off. The soundtrack was full force and loud in theaters and in streaming, even on my atmos system it was weak! Will def be picking the 4k disk up!
What about streaming on Apple TV on 4k or Dobly Vision? I find that the image quality that way is really good.
defo buying the disk the batman in 4k is another great one too
Lol I literally streamed this yesterday and your so right.
Gotta check it out 👍
saw this in 4k regular and enjoyed it.
Nice set up. Happy Father’s Day
Loved the Northman, and the back drop to...
I remember streaming GOT and thought my TV blacked out when there was a dark night scene lol
So many people streamed that episode that they all complained that “nothing was on the screen, why was it filmed like this?” Well, it was on screen, but the stream just obliterated the detail. I just told someone else watching an epic show or an epic movie on a stream is like listening to Handel’s Messiah on a kazoo, because the quality loss is that staggering.
Got on pre order from HMV - Out on the 18th July here in the UK
I really wanted the steelbook from zavvi. Loved that artwork compared to the standard movie poster version.
My Best Buy only had the Blu-ray so I just settled for that. This review makes me wish I’d searched a little more
Had that issue too. Ended up getting the 4K with another item for free shipping. Damn shame BB gutted their rewards program
I feel like Freddy staring into my soul and I can’t think straight
I feel like the effort some key individuals made to make a decision on film has actually worked, it's not feeling surprising anymore and is really nice to see there's some regularity now or is that me?
I can't help it, freddy is staring at me
Wow...looks like Freddy is staring me down. LOL
I had no issue finding it locally. I picked it up at Target yesterday. This is absolutely phenomenal on 4K UltraHD. I had zero interest streaming it on Peacock. This is a demo disc. Enjoy it!
Gonna pickup the Blu ray :)
Best movie i saw in a looooooong time!
SO GOOD
I don't know why it says "Collectors Edition" I work in retail and I saw the words "Collectors Edition" on the Blu-Ray and the DVD. Same thing on Ambulance and The Bad Guys. I don't know why Universal are putting it on everything. Just a little fact I should put that it is not only on the 4k version. This seems to be a real Disney moment.
Btw, saw The Northman twice in theaters, loved it, #3 film of 2022 in my opinion, and the disc is easily demo quality and in my top ten 4k Discs. The best 4k disc of the year other than Dune.
They’re just following Disney’s lead. A lot of Disney’s coasters had Ultimate Collector’s Edition on them too. To date I haven’t bought one of them. 🤣🤣🤣
Pro Freddy Kruger back drop
You should’ve seen this in the theater.
I have a question for you? Is it worth going into the 4k-uhd format with a 43-inch TV or a 50-inch TV with 30 titles in this format?
Thanks for the review Jeff! Very interested in seeing this one. I wonder what the chances are of getting a Director's cut on blu-ray?
The director has stated that the theatrical cut IS the director's cut.
Looking for thr Steelbook for this film. I can't find one available anywhere!
What about watching on Apple TV? It tends to have better quality than Netflix or HBO from what I’ve noticed.
I want to see your Swashbuckling collection
Freddy Krueger behind you looks like he’s thinking “Yeah…what he said!”
love the new back drop although Freddy kept staring at my girlfriend :)
Geoff/ Jeff well done for puting the boot into streaming, nothing wrong with the truth
I recently pre-ordered Childs Play Steelbook 4k.
Great video as always 👍 feedback: Freddie head staring right out was distracting
I watched it while visiting friends, via streaming, on a lower bandwidth connection. (Wasn't my choice.) Everything you said about how awful the picture would be is absolutely true. Feels like I burned a really good movie experience. Ah, well. There's always the next disc!
