    Kenneth Branagh's HAMLET -- the ultimate, merged, when-oh-when thread

    In the thread, Will 1080p be the next misnomer (wrong labels)? Are 2.35/2.4:1 films REALLY 1080p?, the discussion came up about all the films ever shot on 65mm film and as far as I can tell, Hamlet was the last major feature film ever to be completely shot on 65mm film. I can only think of two...

    Kenneth Branagh's HAMLET -- the ultimate, merged, when-oh-when thread

    The current HD DVD players do not support all the new HD audio formats. Do you have an authenticated source that has proven that VC-1 at the lower bit rates available with HD DVD looks any better than MPEG-2 at the higher bit rates available with Blu-ray? If not, then once again you are...

    Kenneth Branagh's HAMLET -- the ultimate, merged, when-oh-when thread

    Where are the facts that back that up? What authenticated source involved in the production of 50GB Blu-ray discs is saying that they are unable to make the layer change work? This is pure FUD and while presented as a fact, is merely an opinion based on no factual data, only misleading posts...

    Except that it may not fit on one HD DVD disc without compromising the bit rates. Considering that Warner also supports Blu-ray, and how much love the Warner DVD production team members have been giving Blu-ray and the soon to be released BD players over at AVS, and that 50 GB Blu-ray discs...

    Don't jump yet, official news on the release is imminent. Of course, if the view from the ledge is nice you may still want to hang out there. ;)

    Kenneth Branagh's HAMLET -- the ultimate, merged, when-oh-when thread

    Hopefully that will be the case. This is one title that I would love to own a 720p transfer of (or better yet 1080p should Warner concede to use Blu-ray technology). It would also be great to have the entire film on one disc, and in the case of Blu-ray, have all the extras on the same disc as...

    Kenneth Branagh's HAMLET -- the ultimate, merged, when-oh-when thread

    I was quite surprised that there was no mention of the upcoming DVD release of Hamlet during the Warner chat - but then again no one even asked about the Blade Runner DVD nor about several other high profile DVD titles rumored to be in production. Hamlet will likely be one of my top picks for...
