why not just rip the 3D version?

Not everyone owns that release or has the means of storing such a big file on their computer.

It looks a little more cartoony, but I really dig it .Very clear and easy to follow action.

They probably do but just don't know about the release. They had to rip the movie to the hard drive to even do the adjustments anyway.

Still not sure why they didn't release it in 4K yet. Maybe waiting for a 4K MonsterVerse set? Still holding out hope for an extended cut as it's the only way I'd even bother getting G14.

What other footage would be included in an extended cut?

For one thing, the cut Akira Takarada cameo that was publicized pretty heavily. A still of it exists but no footage.

6 years later and people still can’t let that go?

Oh look. You can actually see what is happening in there. Why this kind of lighting wasn’t present at the cinema and in home video

That single cameo could have saved the movie if it wasn’t cut out

WB really missed an excellent opportunity to fix that damn transfer with the 2019 Blu-Ray release. I legit can't understand what went wrong

The lightened up version looks amazing. Also, just now noticed that the brief moment of Ford seeing Godzilla's tail move as he walks from a ground perspective sorta lines up with what Mark saw in the beginning of KOTM. Pretty sure this is unintentional but still kinda cool.

The lightened up version is so much better imo. The lighting in it was my main gripe with the film.

...Huh?

The guy asked what cut footage would be included, I told him one such piece. What's your problem?

WB needs to pay that person to lighten up the entire movie and release. I'd buy it again if it looked like that.

You dared insinuate, even if accidentally, that a Monsterverse movie isn't perfect.

Post by **cloverfan98** » Mon Apr 06, 2020 11:09 am

seriously pick up the 3D 2014 blu ray and rip it. Completely new experience.

Tyrant_Lizard_King · Post by **Tyrant_Lizard_King** » Tue Apr 07, 2020 5:12 pm

Just wait for the inevitable 4K. That should alleviate most of the darkness problems, especially with a good 4K TV.

Hope so, saw this on TV the other night and it was unbearably dark, really makes you appreciate how much easier to see KOTM is.

It feels like a whole new movie. I love it.

"Well snap, looks like they released the crappy transferred overly dark version again. Welp, time to wait for the next $6 Blu-Ray in hopes they will FINALLY correct it. It'll happen eventually, right?"

"Hahaha funny moving picture box go bright-bright"

No joke, I just switched my brightness settings around and it was just as bright as the original theater version
