    This means there may be a chance KPop Demon Hunters will be released on Blu-ray…fingers crossed.

    KPop Demon Hunters is definitely getting released on 4K Blu-ray. Thanks to Criterion for saving it from the Netflix catalogue!

      Did they re-render it in 4k? The album cover for the songs is literally a 1080p screencap from the movie upsized with text.

        It’s not necessary to re-render the animation in 4K - in fact, the majority of both live action and animated 4K Blu-rays are just 2K upscales. The real benefits come from HDR.

        I would have thought they would render it at something high like 4K in the first place, since it’s easy to downsample to 1080p? Unless, I suppose rendering is expensive and if you know you only need 1080p then maybe you wouldn’t?

    I can’t wait to see some super serious actor or director randomly get KPop Demon Hunters off the shelf during their Closet Picks interview.
