Thriller 40th Anniversary

16mm CAN be scanned at 4k, film has no set resolution. its just that the diminishing returns for scanning 16mm ends at 1080p, after that its not seen, unless compression comes into play, which there is alot of on youtube. so 4K is neccisary in order to not be extremely compressed as the 1080p encoding on youtube is terrible.

Wasn’t it already established that Billie Jean, having been shot using 16mm film cameras, can’t be converted to 4K?

It was established that it can be, technically. But the game of making everything as "K" as possible is a silly one anyway. Most things top out at 2K, 8K isn't standard yet, 4K is the sweet spot very little actually reaches.

Thriller 40​


On the heels of the iconic album's 40th anniversary, GRAMMY-winning documentarian, music historian and author Nelson George announced that he’s hard at work on an official documentary about the making of the King of Pop’s legendary 1982 opus and groundbreaking short film.
"The release of 'Thriller' redefined Michael Jackson, taking him from teen star to adult superstar, who composed memorable songs, sang beautifully and reached the highest level of on-stage performance," George said in a statement. "The album, and the short films they inspired, created a new template for marrying music and image. It’s been a privilege to explore this extraordinary album and revisit its magic."
Featuring exclusive footage and candid interviews, the 2023 documentary will also focus on Jackson’s skyrocketing career at the time of the album’s release and its impact on the world and popular culture.

Thriller, Beat It, and Billie Jean each were playing Canvas', looping clips from the music videos, on Spotify today. It seems to be gone, or at least not working on my end. It was pretty floor regardless.

Billie Jean was still not 4K, smh.

I asked if someone knows when it's gonna be released, because I perfectly know it hasn’t been officially announced. There is always someone who knows.

Learn how to read :)

It would've been said already, we've been going over this since last year. Hasn't been announced, hasn't been leaked. As soon as it is we'll have it. Learn how to stop begging.
 
To be honest, I don't think Billie Jean 4K will be a thing. 🤷‍♀️ We haven't heard anything about it, there have been no hints it will happen (as far as I'm aware), so I'm fairly certain it's not going to. It seems many people are expecting it will happen, but I myself do not. And I don't see why I should; simply wanting it to happen isn't enough.

I'll gladly be proven wrong, of course, but for now, I have no expectations. I'm not even on the lookout for it at this point... but I'm only speaking for myself here.
