- Comment on Sony will be releasing "MONTY PYTHON AND THE HOLY GRAIL" on 4K Ultra HD on August 26. 22 hours ago:
For sure. I’ve gotta assume they used the master film for scanning Monty Python, and if it was stored properly they probably wouldn’t have to do a ton of restoration and cleaning, but I don’t know the specifics. 4K77’s work is amazing and admirable, but not really watchable to me for exactly the reason you mentioned. I don’t think any amount of cleanup would fix that kind of degradation, though it’s still an incredible representation and artifact of the film’s history. It’s a shame that project was only necessary because of the Lucas’ stubbornness.

This release is “Native 4K.” As far as I understand it, Native 4K means it was produced from scans of the film negatives, not upscaled. These releases are usually the best possible quality with the crispest and most natural image. They might have needed to do some physical cleaning of the film, and they might have done some touch up’s here and there in post, but Native 4K is ideal, and what you want in a release like this.

Such a cool concept. I could see myself really getting into a game like this.
