This thread is misleading as it´s ONLY Exclusive Region 1 LaserDisc vs. Region 1 DVDs. Many foreign DVDs are equal to, or better, than the Region 1 LaserDiscs.
This movie really needs a proper Blu-ray & DVD release with bonus features. Does anyone know if we´re likely to see a 20th Anniversay Edition, which is next year?
From an entertainment perspective, Avatar is NOT a masterpiece. The story and plot is mediocre. The characters are hollow with no personality. The villian has a comical nature. The dialog is very stilted.
From a technological perspective, Avatar is a masterpiece, which other films will now be...
This DVD-r scheme is worst crap EVER from the studios!
For the love of movies, I cannot understand why anyone would buy just ONE of these shi. DVD-r´s!
Give us poper DVDs & Blu-rays, please....!!!!!!
Just love these kind of "films set in Italy". I collect as many as I can find. English spoken movies, which are set in Italy that I own so far on DVD: A Month by the Lake Up at the Villa Under the Tuscan Sun Enchanted April My House in Umbria Tea with Mussolini Only You Luzhin...
Those of us who already own the Oppo 983 won´t win a whole lot by getting the BD-83 (when available). We might as well buy a Panasonic or Pioneer instead. However, this is the ONLY reason Not to buy the BD-83, though.
As for Pirates 2; I´d go for either the R2UK or the R2JAP. Both of them carries a DTS track, and I really think this movie calls for watching it in DTS. That is if you have DTS on your receiver.
Interesting comparison as I find the EDKO release better than the Tartan release. Both image and sound wise.
Sophie Scholl (R1 Zeitgeist) has a terrible image. Has nice set of extras, though.

You´re right. I got it mixed up with another movie. Perhaps, I made my own personal "bathroom" intermission. :) I have no problrm with a movie split over 2 discs ...if it means it will keep a higher bit rate.
This is a hilarious discussion. If any of you saw The Green Mile or Wyatt Earp in the theatre you might remember there was an "intemission". As mentioned, even Lord of the Rings EE DVD Trilogy has to be swithed to a second disc. So goes for Lawrence of Arabia, Gangs of New York &...
No. It´s the Thailand/Taiwan DVD that has the best image & sound. Here is a R2DE vs. R3 Thailand comparison: http://forum.cinefacts.de/showthread.php?p=3944873
@ Jon Martin I agree with your thoughts in your post. I was a big fan of the LaserDisc format as well so I welcome any new format that will improve the sound & image quality. However, I honestly don´t think the majority of consumers will upgrade to either HD-DVD & BluRay within several...
Honestly, you must be the only person on the planet that has that opinion. DTS beats Dolby Digital 90% of the times. It´s just a common fact. But hey, if you´re satsified with Dolby Digital fine with me.
