Can The Lord of the Rings Ever be Remastered?
After several home releases, The Lord of the Rings doesn't look as good as I remember, but my memory isn't the problem.
My recommendations:
-
The Fellowship of the Ring:
1. The Fan Version.
From what I understand, the Fan Version uses the luminance of the HD Extended Edition, but is color matched to the Theatrical Edition and the Extended DVDs. I love it. I found it on 1337x.to.
2. The HD Theatrical Edition (2010)
If you don’t care about the Extended Edition, this is a great option. It has some DNR, but the colors look good.
3. The 4K (2020)
The 4Ks are fine, but out of all of them, Fellowship is the worst, because the colors are so boring.
4. The DVDs?
I don’t know, anything but the HD Extended Edition.
5. The HD Extended Edition (2011)
Abysmal.
-
The Two Towers:
1. The HD Extended Edition (2011)
The Two Towers and The Return of the King weren’t messed up, so I prefer the HD Blu-rays over the 4Ks. However, the Extended Edition of The Two Towers has a slight green tint in *some* scenes, compared to the Theatrical Edition, but it’s not that noticeable.
2. The 4K (2020)
Arguably, The Two Towers benefits the most from a fancy new color grade, since the original was a little flat. I love how blue the skies are in this version. Unfortunately, the DNR looks the worst. The plains of Rohan are wiped out. There are like ten different flashbacks, so the white filter bugs me. And anything that’s yellow-green is too saturated, so certain costume details look like caution-tape, and anyone with blonde hair looks like they’ve been swimming in chlorine.
-
The Return of the King:
1. The HD Extended Edition (2011)
Perfect.
Although, I had audio-sync problems with The Two Towers and the Return of the King, so personally, I swapped the audio with the 4K audio.
2. The 4K (2020)
The Return of the King 4K doesn’t bother me that much. But I prefer the HD version.

    In my opinion, this magnificent trilogy can never be remarsted, it was way ahead of it's time, the only way they could do it again is if they used all the unused footage to make a further extended edition, in short term this triogly is forever and can not be replaced.

    I've noticed a lot of remasters lately have been pretty shitty, including the use of AI to upscale with sometimes horrific results. Another thing I've noticed is that "lightning in a bottle geniuses" (Richard Garriott, George Lucas, etc.) only made awesome shit because of time, place, and many limitations. Remove the limitations and remove them from the lightning in a bottle environment in which the original work was created and you often get straight up disaster. It's interesting, and sad.

    Make a video on how Criterion screwed up the so-called director-approved version of "Matewan"...the most offensive example of the amber and teal mentality gripping Hollywood in how they are all remastering classic movies with today's technology. There was nothing wrong with how it actually looked on film but now it's garrish green and puke yellow and it's absolutely ridiculous. LOTR suffers from the same mentality and then even worse because the 4K version has grain reduction added.

    I just saw a video on how la la land uniquely speaks to each person and it was so amazing to hear your perspective. I think that the combination of realism and dreamer idealism, alongside the gorgeous music and visuals really speaks to me as a hobbyist artist. I really admire that sort of passion for one thing within people. I think that when Mia gives up everything for her one-woman show, she follows that passion from Seb and his encouragement. There is a reversal from the beginning of the movie, as now Mia is giving everything up for her dream and Seb is giving up his dream. When they first met, Mia had been more skeptical and Seb more impassioned, but he had re-inspired.

    im 20 minutes in, i just wanna write that like, holyshit i just saw this was FOUR years ago wow. anyway i just wanted to say you voiced exactly how i felt about kevin's character assassination the same way, the amount of characters in the show that just become caricatures of themselves is wiiiild and that always bothered me, anyway, even tho this was four years ago,, thank you for validating in some small way how i felt about a sitcom that doesnt even matter, i appreciate it more than u know editing because im drunk and i dont need to excuse myself this is a stupid comment? but i disagree with dwight, i like- wait lemme finish the video okay so i think the problem is the show wasnt willing to go all the way for their characters, meaning fleshing them out. that's basically it, i mean like i havent seen the show in years but i watched it seven times back then, im not an authority but i get vibes now instead? so basically all of this is useless, i liked that dwight had some actual development but i did forget about caricature relapsing with some of the characters and dwight isnt the worst offender but god rewatching it is bad editing again i agree

    I always hated the framing of the widescreen editions of Lord of the Rings. It was filmed at 1.85:1 aspect ratio and then cropped down to 2.35:1 for theatrical release and DVD/BluRay, and cropped to 1.35:1 for VHS. Neither format looked perfect, as they were both cropped considerably, but I actually thought the 1.35:1 version looked considerably better. The widescreen image is often cropped way too tight (especially in close-ups), and is distracting and just plain looks bad at times. I'd love for it to be re-released in a slightly looser 2.0:1 format, adding a bit of breathing room at the top and bottom. Other movies not shot in widescreen format that also suffer from being cropped drastically for widescreen release: Reservoir Dogs and The Matrix.

    Michael leaving the show was unavoidable because Steve Carell's movie career took off. Replacing him with Andy made sense but the execution was terrible. Ed Helms' movie career also started taking off and the producers allowed him to be absent from the show. This hurt the show. If Helms could not be on the show full-time, the producers should have cast someone else. The role of the office manager is critical to the show's success. The producers decided to make Andy unlikable which was terrible. Jim should have become the manager because it makes sense. He was co-manager before and the natural arc would be his ascension to the office manager position. Jim's position could be filled by a young upstart salesman who is a lot like Michael Scott. Bringing in Clark Duke and Jake Lacy ruined the show. I found them boring. They were late to the game. The last season is where the cast was split up in different locations. Jim and Darryl were in another office running their sports agent business. Ryan and Kelly were absent most of the time. The point is a group working together in an office and not different locales.
