Close Encounters of the Third Kind currently $4.99, in 4K DV. 

 

iTunes Extras includes all three versions of the film plus the usual extras so it’s pretty good value.

The Indiana Jones 4-Movie Collection is coming to 4K Ultra HD! All 4 films are remastered from 4K scans of the original negatives with extensive visual effects work done to ensure the most pristine & highest quality image, as approved by director Steven Spielberg. Get it June 8!

 

Release date is for the US, but I expect an iTunes upgrade around the same time. I reckon these movies will look superb in 4K.

Following the antics of a young woman, Emma Woodhouse, who lives in Georgian- and Regency-era England and occupies herself with matchmaking - in sometimes misguided, often meddlesome fashion- in the lives of her friends and family.

Not much of interest to me this week, that I haven't already purchased. I browsed the $4.99 section, and picked up two titles.

 

FURY (2014) Dolby Vision/Dolby Atmos

 

THE ITALIAN JOB (2003) HD/Dolby Digital Plus 5.1

Not usually a fan of Ben Stiller, but Tropic Thunder is very funny 😅
