Review of 4k Discs
The Hobbit trilogy was shot digitally at 5k resolution, which leads to a pristine picture on 4k blu-ray. As with LOTR, there’s Dolby Vision, and a very high bit-rate. It’s a pity there’s no high frame rate version included, but unfortunately 4k blu-ray players don’t support 48fps, only 50 or 60 in HFR mode. It would be the same as PAL DVDs, which ran at 25fps so were actually sped up slightly compared to cinema and US releases (and blu-ray, which of course runs at 24fps), but maybe there’s another reason. Either way, blame the studio, they’re the ones who get the final say in these matters.
Unfortunately this set contains no bonus material whatsoever, not even the audio commentaries, so to have the complete set you would need to get a copy of the Extended Blu-ray set too, which is all a bit silly really.

Awesome Trilogy
Previously owned The Hobbit on Blu-Ray and had the extended versions too,
Had to get the 4k versions as love these movies,
It is a awesome transfer, all the movies come with Dolby Vision and Dolby Atmos,
You get the Theatrical and Extended Versions in this set,
Comes in a nice matte finish sleeve which protects the case.
Definitely would recommend this to anyone.
