For example I watched the Back to the Future trilogy last night on 4k TV. They must have remastered it or something for bluray? I dunno. Whatever may be, I saw so many details I never saw when watching the movies previously because I probably only ever saw it at 720p at best on an old plasma TV from a VHS or sometimes a DVD (but moot anyway, because sucky TV).

Principal Strickland, for example, has a whopping great burn scar on his neck in his first scene in the movie. I've literally never noticed that before.

It's kinda cool how the original film footage was always ultra HD but the home TV tech we all have is just catching up

I just watched the 70s Dawn of the Dead last night.

It looks good, still has that grainy grindhouse look and it's glorious.

A bit disturbing how relevant the film is in this day and age though.

TV shows are weird too. Like in Star Trek The Next Generation you can see the screws holding up the various computer screens and such.
