Re: HTF BLU-RAY REVIEW: PIRATES OF THE CARIBBEAN: DEAD MAN'S CHEST HIGHEST RECOMMENDATION

Any of you with the PS3 and a 720P projector need to UPDATE YOUR PS3 ASAP to the new 1.8 firmware which provides 720p output.

WOW. My blu-ray discs have never looked so good... much sharper/more detailed than with my PJ "bobbing" the 1080i input.

I know it's OT for this thread... but figured that many folks might be using the PS3 to watch these movies and may not have heard about the new 1.8 update that was just released (last night).

Good call, Dave... that's an important update as Pirates won't be fully playable without it. Sony also issued new firmware for the BDP-S1 as did Samsung for their new 1200. Panasonic issued their new firmware a few weeks ago. This is such a huge release that all the major manufacturers went to work to make sure their players would be compatible. Cool!

It is pretty cool the way things work these days with updatable firmware and with the studios like Disney and WB working so closely with the manufacturers. Disney wants to use BD-J... so the manufacturers get their updates ready to time the release just prior to the Pirates BDs. Cool...

Ben, I forgot to thank you for another fine review in my post above. Sorry for the oversight.

I am beginning to rely on the reviews in this forum more and more in my decision making process on which titles to purchase. You guys are doing great work.
