Re: Master And Commander Review
I'll find out whenever Amazon deems fit to send me my pre-ordered copy. I never got the BD, but I still have the DVD so I'll be able to compare directly. I know for a fact that claims of Edge Of Tomorrow having deepier/louder bass on BD versus 4K are very true (I own both). However, that movie still sounded fantastic on 4K despite the reduced bass, which I would have been blissfully unaware had I not owned the BD. If Master and Commander: The Far Side of the World turns out like that, I will not be too upset.
The 4K comes with the BD, as well.

The "audio" room at the Academy Museum of Motion Pictures has a good segment on how they did the sound for this movie; just as an example of sound being added to a movie. it made me want to re-watch it.

Re: Master And Commander Review
I love thread resurrections like this; they're like time capsules where I can go back and see what my thoughts were at a certain time period of my life. My opinion on this movie has actually improved with time, and I enjoyed it when I saw it opening night back in 2003. More people I know who didn't care for it at the time have come to appreciate it as well.
