Master and Commander: The far side of the world firmly rooted in the aims of cult film history. The luxurious production became beloved by Sineastes over the years, even if its initial success was less than desired after release. Recently, a new 4K recovery from the film was recently released along with a physical Blu-ray 4K Blu-ray home video.
And that sucker has sold out left and right. The demand for the Master and Commander: The far side of the world Off the charts with the resale market rising as much as doubling the retail price.
Why is the incredible desire for this film apart from its perceived quality? Because physical media came back anyone with brains always knew it would.
Streaming is a failure if you love a movie
When the stream Wars began in fact, it seemed that consumers and film fanatics like me would stand to benefit most. We would have endless libraries of films and TV shows at our fingertips, and these companies would see the value in maintaining solid libraries of films.
The truth today is that most streaming services do not see value in keeping a huge library of films. Instead, they want to continue to produce new unique content and sell their rich libraries to the highest bidder. The perceived value of tons of films for many decades is very low in the streaming market, and that makes those of us who love movies and want to find more of them left out in the cold.
Point case: From this writing, Master and Commander: The far side of the world It is not available to stream on any available service. Perhaps now you are beginning to see the appeal of returning to physical media and why this film sold so quickly.
Conservation multiplies
Crafted a physical home video of release for Master and Commander: The far side of the world revealed that people want food to own their media again. And not just phalancs of fogies make sure they can get all their favorite movies with them in their sarcophagus. Younger users who show to buy physical media in surprise to welcome him.
By protecting these films or any art on physical media, it allows that art to multiply throughout a healthier culture. When movies are nothing but data in an invisible stream, they lose their cultural power. They are technically more able to spread throughout civilization, but they get lost among all the others and zero out there.
Streaming goes nowhere but it mutts into a familiar enough form that consumers start to look elsewhere. You cannot rely on Netflix to get your favorite movie on hand anymore. So it’s time to start investing in the movies you care about by buying them on a disk again. As someone who has bought Mouth On VHS, DVD, Blu-ray, and 4K Blu-ray, I will always promote the physical ownership of the art you hold dear. Too bad if that art happens to be Master and Commander: The far side of the worldthough. You have to go to Huntin ‘for a deal.
