Dat Disney +
« on: Tue, 04 August 2020, 16:03:34 »
Would you pay $29.99 to watch the Live action Mulan @ home on Sept 4th ??

That seems really overpriced, especially since most people's Movie setup prolly isn't even calibrated.

Also, I wonder if you get extra bit-rate for that $29.99,   I'd feel ripped off, if they gave you the same ol' 5 - 20mbit.

Movie theater DCP files are 250mbit, 12x that of normal online streaming bitrate.

4K blurays are 40-100mbit.

Vanilla 1080p blurays are 20-40mbit.

I probably will. I have a home theater set up. + with my wife and I, it works out to $15 a ticket. Or, we could do a double date with her sister and husband and it's $7.50 a ticket.

In theory, the majority of modern TVs have higher contrast performance than theater projectors.  However, sound is of course not even close.

But Color will not be nearly as consistent which is arguably the most problematic issue with Home-Releasing big budgets.

Theaters guarantee accurate color, and they also use lamps/lasers which offer P3 wide color gamut,  vs mainly srgb gamut TVs at home.

Also, Mulan trailer looks kinda crummy, IDK why they'd start with that-one..
