Blu-ray.com - Starship Troopers Coming to Blu-ray
I'll be curious to see how the PQ stacks up against the UK Disney import.

It's close enough to be unnoticeable for most of the movie, and isn't ever severe enough to be concerned about, but every so often the inaccurate sync may be momentarily distracting." i noticed a few times when dialog was off a tick but it but was rare. there would be one person talking and be off a tick, but the person he was talking to was not off at all. looked to me like a dubbing issue. |

Sometime's you reach what's real by making believe.

As far as I can tell, Sony appears to be pulling a Spider-Man here. You can buy the third film separately or all three films in a group, but you can't buy either of the first two by itself. If I'm wrong, could someone please direct me to a retailer selling only the first film? I'll happily buy it, imperfections and all. M. |

So it is wrong to see visual evidence of an issue of a disc and read reports by people reporting said issue and choose to pass on said disc but OK to read 2 reports of what (it seems) is less of an issue on a diff disc and pass on it even though a person in this thread who has viewed it said it only showed up in a few scenes.
Interesting how the double standard works with some... BTW DNR and EE being applied is considered a "shoddy disc" by me and all the others who are upset by that with dark city and stuff. Maybe with me "calling you guys out" with your double standard you guys can understand and appreciate the "other side" in the DNR debate. |
Good job of pointing out some geese and ganders.
