If the free grain has whetted your appetite, you can acquire the individual packs starting at $29 for a single pack or $49 for all four of their packs at 1080p. Or, if you want a 4K version of the 35mm film grain (1080p version included, too), that will set you back $79.

The package also includes the Blu-ray versions of each title, which offer the films in 1080p HD. Rather than list all of the extras included on these discs (which are plentiful) the important thing to note is that these are the same discs as previously released on Blu-ray. So all of those extras carry over here too (including the added material on the Fast & Furious: 2-Disc Special Edition). The discs come in a very nice hardback book package with a hard slipcover and the book pages list all of the special features on the Blu-rays.
We waited a loooong time for this one. From the moment 4K UHD came on the scene, classic movie fans salivated at the prospect of seeing one of the all-time great movies in the format. Well, just in time for Casablanca's 80th birthday, Warner Home Video finally delivered, and the disc was worth the wait. Incredibly film-like, razor sharp, and packed with fine detail, the HDR transfer struck from a 4K 16-bit scan of the best-surviving nitrate elements outshines every other home video release of this Best Picture Oscar winner that tells arguably the most captivating World War II story in Hollywood history. Iconic images abound - Bogie in his trench coat, Bergman's watery eyes, Paul Henreid passionately singing "La Marseillaise," the sardonic Claude Rains smirking in his military finery, tubby Sydney Greenstreet cackling in his fez hat, an oily Peter Lorre squealing "Reeeeck! Reeeeck!", Dooley Wilson crooning "As Time Goes By" while tinkling the ivories... None of them have looked or sounded any better than they do here. If you have a 4K setup, you need Casablanca in Ultra High-Def in your collection.
The other major feature is a 25-minute conversation between Chris Nolan and Richard Donner, which is fun but I must offer token protest on that since it mostly ignores the fact that Richard Donner created a Superman film from scratch while Nolan had the hindsight benefit of "dos" and "don't"s from the Burton/Schumacher films. Otherwise it's entertaining, and all-too brief, and arguably focuses more on Superman: The Movie versus the Nolan Bat-films. The rest of the would-be bonus material is the IMAX footage from The Dark Knight and The Dark Knight Rises, which is odd considering the blu-ray releases for both sequels came in their shifting aspect-ratio format. The rest of the $80 price tag goes into packaging and would-be "swag". And that's it, although I suppose we should be grateful that Warner didn't tack on that underwhelming Secret Origins: The Story of DC Comics documentary from 2010 that they were briefly including on various DC Animated releases.
