2023 is the year we are supposed to see majority of the remainder for James Cameron’s catalog to be out on 4K Ultra-HD Blu-ray. Thanks to the help of his latest megabuster sequel, the original Avatar has made its way to the format. Sporting a new Dolby Atmos track and updated restoration, transfer, the disc […]
Early on into the 4K Ultra-HD Blu-ray era, there was a Director’s Definitive Edition release of Michael Mann’s Heat onto standard Blu-ray that everyone picked up anyway but was baffled why an upper echelon title didn’t just hit up the new format with a new edition that had a 4K restoration.

As Blu-ray secures itself as a faithful medium, you will find that more and more less-recent films are making their way to high definition. A highlight of 1992’s cinema résumé is Michael Mann’s remake of The Last of the Mohicans. Starring Daniely Day-Lewis (There Will Be Blood) along with Madeline Stowe (We Were Soldiers), Russell […]
