Yeah, it’s not subtle about much of it (this is not a criticism):

The non-business executive types are naturally selfless and risk themselves to help others without a moment’s hesitation. Conversely, the CEO-type is all about saving himself above all others, and will literally throw others at a problem to save his own ass. The main protagonist starts off at one end of that spectrum - the wrong one - and ends his perfect character arc at the other.
I’ve seen it advertised here but I don’t have Paramount so I gotta look into ahem alternative methods. We did watch Moving on Disney+ which has its good and bad points. Some really good episodes mixed with cheesy CG but I enjoyed it overall considering its one of the first local takes on “superheroes”.
I have pricked on enough about the despecialized versions of the Star Wars original trilogy. However, this revisit is because I have just downloaded the finished version of the 4k Star Wars.
I’m not even watching it on a 4k TV (waiting for Amazon to show up with the new 4k living room TV), and it looks absolutely amazing even being downscaled to 2k (fka 1080p). The colors are just so vivid and the picture soooooooo sharp.
The Project 4K77 people have completed the same process for ROTJ (Project 4K83), which apparently was a doddle as they obtained a pristine theatrical 35mm print of the film.
4K80 (ESB) is delayed as the film print they have is badly damaged in places. They have to cobble together segments from other sources to fill in where the print is corrupt. The saving grace is that ESB is the movie in the OT that Lucas fucked with the least. As long as the damage has avoided spoodgified segments of the movie, it should be too hard to cull what they need from a 4k BD.
Anyway, if you have the bandwidth and storage capacity - they’re ~60GB each - I highly recommend picking them up.
Not dissing upscaled Tron at all but, for clarification, the Star Wars OT despecialized versions are new 4k scans from 35mm film. They’re not upscaled Blu Ray rips.
I’m using Plex. They’re an MKV Matroska file so, unless you want to transcode the files (and lose image quality in the process), you’ll need something that can play that format natively.
They’re available from multiple sources and some are, indeed, torrent sites. I got my original 720p versions from a torrent site and came through unscathed, but it’s obviously not without risk.
If you go to the Project 4K77 website and sign up, you’ll find the information you need to make your own risk-reward decision.
