It's A Wonderful Life (1946) Coming To 4K Blu-ray October 29th
- Thread starter Schlorgan
- Start date
It's always amazed me that this film includes a high school gymnasium that has a retractable floor that reveals a swimming pool underneath. I've never seen that anywhere else. Seems like such a modern idea, but it's from the '40s?!
Also, back then, people swam naked in gym class. Just imagine George Bailey with his cock out.
All I can imagine is naked George Bailey with his cock out doing the charleston.
Overplayed pro-banking system weirdness that can actually be forgotten and I'd be fine with it but okay.
I should make a tearjerker about how student loans saved someone from drowning or something.

Geroge Bailey was the fucking John Holmes of his time. All the women wanted that D.
I just monologues at Bernie Sanders and luckily everyone in town will pay their fair share!

It definitely needs it but colorization is probably going to be done again at some point
I saw it for the first time last year and was shocked at how focused it was on the banking shit

They showed the last scene of this at our church recently and I had to fight back the tears. The ending is so ubiquitous, though I've only seen the full film maybe once or twice.
Glad to see the restoration did it proud.

- Said no one ever
Regardless, a re-release of this classic is cool.

Love this movie
I'm old enough to remember a time where it was on TV multiple times a day everyday before CBS made it a once a year event.

We watch it every year, at least in December if not always Christmas, and "To my brother George, the richest man in town" chokes me up a bit every time.
They are the worst "reviewers"
You can see the upgrade for yourself even in SDR
one of the greats.
mmmm, dat grain.
Looking forward to one day upgrading to 4K.

I watch this every Christmas Eve, don't really like physical stuff though, wonder if any download services will have it.
Um, I'm American and I've never watched even a clip of this movie.
The fact that it was in black-and-white turned me off as a kid and I never got around to watching it afterwards once I got over that sort of stuff.

I can only stomach watching this the week of Christmas, that ending always fucking destroys me.
So good
Hmm, there seems to be some black crush going on in that set of comparison pics for the 4K version.
I figured that was probably the reason but it's killing the comparison for me since a lot of detail is lost from it. It's nice to see the level of grain though.
