What do you know... Disc just arrived at my doorstop! Too bad i won't have enough time to sample it right away. Maybe tonight, or tomorrow. Regards Bjoern

Ordered the disc. Shipped already, should be here any day now. Really excited to see it! After seeing the incredible unfiltered detail in Sin City and hearing the report on this disc, i think they might have gone the Bjoern-Bit non-filtered route indeed in these 2 cases. Sign of things to...

Hm.. seems i need to come back from retirement. :b Wouldn't have thought that this edition would be an improvement. Need to get my hands on it and will see what i come up with. Best regards Bjoern

Did i ever mention that i find the criticism of the Panic Room SB DVD 'odd'?

Film based movies Many recent films have a bit of EE and/or DNR artefacts, because of processing done to the digial intermediate. It appears to be a 'trend' actually. The move to 4k DI will make at least the EE less likely to be used and/or almost unnoticable to the viewer (since you can...

I watched this movie yesterday and it drained my IQ at a rate of about 50 points per hour. I have since lost my ability to talk or walk on 2 feet, and i slobber all over the carpet. I can barely coordinate my hands to write this. If i regenerate well, i might be able to comment on the PQ in a...

Doug, I hope you were doing some sort of funny Jeff Kleist impersonation there and don't really believe that ;) The resolution difference of Panavision vs S35 is of interest at a high meta level for DP's (and hideously overblown, btw), but has no bearing whatsoever on DVD. To bring this...

David, i fully agree with your PQ assessment. :emoji_thumbsup: :emoji_thumbsup: Color, both tone and saturation is indeed marvelous on this release. Shadow detail, delineation and contrast is excellent as well, yielding good picture depth. The scenes that have borderline clipped whites ARE...

Sorry for not having enough time to update my site more regularily. But i did save your screenshots, of course. And i just did a little side-by-side of 2 of them to bring across your point. These are the 2 scenes: Regards Bjoern

Since today, DVDEmpire also lists 6 other new titles: - The Contender (Dreamworks) - Forces of Nature (Dreamworks) ... we new about this one - About a Boy (Universal) - American Pie 2 (Universal) - Mummy Returns (Universal) - Notting Hill (Universal) ... was already on the radar with the...

Larry, this is what i wrote on the AVS:

Tony,

David,

I was just about to take some time off my schedule to post a few pics here showing the problems on this DVD. But Bruce, seeing your polemic, bordeline insulting, posts and attitude, why would i bother? My prediction is that once i post shots, the usual "cant see this on my rig, must be...
