Yeah I loved the movie, but I have a feeling 80's special effects aren't going to stand up very well in 4k.

I’m game if they fix a lot of the bad rotoscoping that happened back then. The blob (1988) in 4K is a great example of great restoration and great care taken with the special effects elements and good rotoscoping done to fix the bad roto done back then.
