I have D+, Amazon prime and HBOMax. The 4k picture is ok on those, but the sound is eh. I actually have the Apple service thorough my sister. I wanted to watch 2 movies (Greyhound & Finch) so one day she signed in for me. Can't really comment on whether it was any better than D+, Prime or HBO. Netflix I refuse to pay extra so I don't have the 4K streaming.
I actually don't really buy that many movies anymore, as I got tired of upgrading my favorite movies from DVD, then BD, now 4k. Only the ones I really like and know I will watch multiple times. But when I tried do some comparisons of discs vs streaming, there is definitely a noticeable difference in the Audio. It's harder to tell with picture. The biggest thing I hate about streaming is the occasional drop out of the audio or picture degrading when at times signal drops. Annoying as F....

That's actually why I started buying from iTunes, as they offer free upgrades from 1080p to 4K. The catch is you can't download the 4K, only stream - and not all titles have been upgraded yet.
Holy crap, lol!
Finished watching this on disc, third viewing overall. It's still as freaking epic as ever.
That final shot of him watching Selina leave before revving the throttle on his bike to go deal with all heck breaking loose in Gotham...perfection.

That’s one of my favorite final shots of any movie it’s OT levels of greatness.
Think about it for a second most movies we worship don’t have epic final shots as in literally final shot fade to black.
The Batman has one.
OT has them.
Batman 89 has one.
TDK hmmm I guess sure but not as good as TB nope!
BB would, had it ended with the joker card instead of him gliding lol
Halloween 78 has one
Road Warrior has a really good one.
Rambo 4 has one.
Rocky 3 has one that’s a great one.
Rocky 1 hmm maybe I guess.
I could watch Selina strut through that backstage club hallway on a loop forever.
Agreed, if you mean the Selina Strut.

Selina Strut? I'm glad you're here to tell us these things. Khev! Take the Professor in back and show him the epic final scene!

This is what my wife sees when she looks to the left from bed she’s like…”great a night light” lol
Yep, there's something extra special when an already great movie ends on a perfect note.
Raiders warehouse, BTTF DeLorean flying into the camera, Sarah driving off into the approaching storm.
TDK batpod exit could have been great but Gordon ruined it with his super cringe speech, lol.
That's freaking awesome.

Yup those too!
But as you can see there are not as many as you would think which places TB in a very unique category!
I mean we love Aliens, Predator, Die Hard, Top Gun, T1 and Robocop but I don’t think they have epic fade to blacks.
Not even LOTR has any

Thankfully the opposite effect on me it improved!
Some things that I don't understand or have questions about the final act:
1. Why does Gordon leave the Mayor after she gets shot. I think his first order of the day there is to get her out. The other cops can deal with the shooters.
2 How is she able to stand, and walk on the flood after she is shot.
3. How is she able to make that speech the day after despite being shot, and having to wade through that very dirty water.
4. How can those gunmen make it up there without running into security? Looks like they had a lot of cops there and no one spotted them? This looks like it would have been a highly secure event (being the victory party of the new mayor).
5. How is there still electricity after the building is completely flooded. Normally electricity is the first to go during floods. The building appears to be far enough from the seawall for the flood to take a few minutes to get to it. Power would have been cut earlier either due to damage or deliberately due to safety issues.
6. How was Riddler able to get those "followers" without getting noticed by law enforcement? I would expect he'd be tripping several warning flags before he got to earn those few hundred subscribers/followers.

ROTK could have had several epic fade to black moments except it just kept going and going before finally ending on Sam's door which was the least epic of all the ending moments.Yup those too!

But man not only did TB have one of the greatest final shots of all time but he also had one of the greatest entrances of all time too. It was basically Darth Vader walking out of the dark in RO but with footsteps replacing the breathing.
And even the the batmobile reveal appeared to be a bit of a riff off the Tumbler intro with it revving it's engine next to the side of the building holy crap that freaking fighter jet engine sound absolutely blows away the Tumbler engine!

I rewatched the Tumbler Scene which I have always loved but it’s not even close!
TB is a beast!
Dude you’re right TB opening/endingROTK could have had several epic fade to black moments except it just kept going and going before finally ending on Sam's door which was the least epic of all the ending moments.

I still prefer physical media to streaming. The Batman and Escape From New York are latest 4K pick ups for me and are reference quality in video and sound.
She probably thinks it's an exit sign instead. You might end up planting an idea of exiting.
