Back when CGI was still impressive. I remember seeing this in theaters. I thought it was great back then, I wonder how well it's held up.

Saw it for the first time since release a few months back and I'd say the visuals hold up better than expected. The plot and screenplay on the other hand make me a bit more charitable to today's popcorn films. I think the vast increase in access and selection of movies and shows recently has somewhat raised the bar for even mindless summer flicks.

I wonder how much the new transfer will improve the look of the movie.

I can not say enough how amazing the new transfer looks.
Watching it now and it looks like it was made yesterday

you or anyone else have any screen grabs comparing the old blu-ray with the new one? Even better if you have the 4k.

ha, i just read this. I looks like the majority of the benefits are from color re-grading. I dont think the new transfer is any sharper or has less DNR, based on those screens.

I wonder how the 4k transfer looks.

Going by those screenshots the color grading looks worse.
