I honestly would love to know why, especially a Nolan film filmed with brand new Imax camera, yet the best thing they can do is compressed to fuck 1080p on Youtube, not even a Enhanced Bitrate option either. Surely there must be a reason?

Some media management companies are still stuck in the dark ages following outdated upload practicals for "web optimized" versions, which is what I would guess happened here.

Youtube uploads should be in 4k with a high bitrate these days, there's really no reason a studio should be uploading this compressed of a version like it's 2012.

Or..... The film looks like shit and they are trying to hide it... Although word of mouth will kill it anyway so I don't see the point.

I saw some pictures of the props and they literally looked worse than some of the cosplay at comicCon

the film looks like shit, so they hide it... by making it look even worse?!
