[未買機先買碟系列]Billy Lynn's Long Halftime Walk和Hacksaw Ridge入手


今天入手了Billy Lynn's Long Halftime Walk和Hacksaw Ridge兩隻美版Ultra HD Blu-ray,當中Billy Lynn's是UHD Blu-ray + 3D Blu-ray + Blu-ray所以價錢比Hacksaw Ridge貴少許,而Billy Lynn's 的UHD Blu-ray是有簡體及繁體中文字幕,,而Hacksaw Ridge則没有中文字幕。

這次說說Billy Lynn's這隻UHD Blu-ray,不要被封面的戰爭圖片騙到,這套由李安大導以最新技術最高規格拍攝的電影實是一套百份百的文戲居多的劇情片來,所謂的戰爭場面不到十分鐘。

上述所說的最新技術最高規格,是指這套劇情片以每秒120幀格式拍攝的3D電影,是現時最高幀速率的電影,相比一般以每秒24幀格式拍攝的電影在立體感和流暢度都有更好的表現。而除了劇情需要外,演員都没有化妝。

可惜的是現時全球只有五間戲院可放映到每秒120幀格式的電影,而它們分別在美國洛杉磯、台灣及中國的北京和上海,所以香港的影迷未必可以百份百地歡賞到李安大導的傑作。

幸運的是這部史上最高規格的電影亦會以4K 60P在Ultra HD Blu-ray出現,亦是第一次有電影以這個挌式推出UHD Blu-ray。


說實話,看Full HD Blu-ray時已看得出這部電影的畫質和其他一般電影有所分別,但再用Oppo UDP-203看UHD Blu-ray,雖然用的只是入門Full HD投影機看1080 60P的畫面,但表現出來的流暢度和立體感真是很非一般,而畫面上每一個角落都很清晰地表現出來。

但不知是否畫面太過清晰、流暢和李大導的拍攝手法,整個電影的畫面感覺怪怪的,每一方面的表現都很好,就是没有了"電影感",感覺像在豐澤,百老滙裏看那些開了120hz motion flow之類功能的大電視。可能新世代的電影會是這個方向吧,但Anthony還是喜歡舊有的電影感。話雖如此,在看過這套新規格的UHD Blu-ray電影後,令Anthony更想快點投入Ultra HD的投影行列。






Hacksaw Ridge呢? 只是很快地試了幾章,都是一般UHD Blu-ray的水準,有機會再寫寫。

以上為非專業,自我感覺良好的飛機文。

都係要加返隻二手Entreq Silver Tellus地盒

自己套系統一路都無乜落任何補品,只有一隻Lightspeed HT1 MKII,啲電源線都只係黑雞,訊號線都只係Gotham 11301,因為希望留力升級硬件。唯獨有一個 配件一定要加,就係地盒,而且係越大越好,當年喺Kenneth兄幫手下造咗一隻100磅重嘅地盒,效果真係好驚人...
