You might be surprised to find how many movies you've watched that do use some film emulation, mainly film grain. Most of the time it's just about imperceptible. I look out for it and notice it when it's there, especially on 4K displays.
In fact, for Dune they shot it digitally, copied it to film and digitized it again just to get "real" film grain as opposed to digital approximations.
- satvikpendem 4y agoOh I notice alright, I use a big OLED TV and it's very visible. The Dune example and others (Nolan films especially) are particularly annoying, so much that I literally use software to scrub the film grain off, like Topaz Video AI.
- Arn_Thor 4y agoThat is the most unusual opinion I've come across so far this year. Salutations! Topaz Video AI is great, though
- satvikpendem 4y agoThe entire image looks like it's shimmering, when it has grain on it, which looks very bad on a large 4k TV, especially when you sit closer.
