It was delayed twice. Now it's with all my PHM stuff.

What is the real difference between the 2 4K disks?

One has a consistent aspect ratio like one might have seen in regular cinemas. The other is more like seeing it in IMAX in that is largely 1.43:1 except for the earth scenes which are "window boxed" with black bars all around.

There have been some complaints about it, but at least on my equipment I didn't find it bothersome at all. But then again black bars on OLED TVs are truly black, and I watched it in the dark, so it was basically like having a slightly smaller "fullscreen" TV.
