    How many of you have actually used Digital Copy?

    I'm with you. I replace all the "eco" cases with ones I purchase separately in bulk. The "eco" cases? They go in the trash. I plan on doing the exact same thing now that I have accumulated enough to make a bulk order worth my while. My thoughts exactly.

    How many of you have actually used Digital Copy?

    Digital Copies are great for when I think my TV is just... you know... too big, or something.

    Grindhouse in Blu hopefully?

    I'm quite sure it would have been in addition to the DD track since the posters there seem to understand that situation quite well, and it would have been a close call as to whether or not it would fit. But either way, a 16/48 TrueHD track would have fit easily.

    Grindhouse in Blu hopefully?

    Over on another forum someone looked at the size of the audio tracks on the single releases, and based on that rough estimate a 24/48 TrueHD track should have just fit. A 16/48 track would have fit easily. I have this set and it is othewise excellent but that really is a glaring omission.

    A Few Words About A few words about...™ Gangs of New York -- in Blu-ray

    You shouldn't find any since he always uses PNGs. I'm glad to hear that Buena Vista finally rectified what is arguably the biggest smudge on their record.

    WHV Announcement: Sherlock Holmes (Blu-ray Combo Pack)

    I'll be blind-buying this movie for sure. The Hurt Locker was shot on 16mm.

    A few thoughts about.....LET THE RIGHT ONE IN

    I finally got a chance to watch my corrected UK disc (bravo to Momentum for offering exchanges to foreign customers!) and I realized that I had forgotten what a great film this is; it's worth every penny. The disc itself left me with no complaints, either. The picture was pleasantly film-like...

    I would put Braveheart up for consideration as well.

    What 3 films do you want most on Blu?

    Alien Aliens The Abyss There are countless movies that I want on Blu, but those three would round out my entire top ten list of favourite films on HD optical disc.

    What Blu-ray discs do you consider as "Reference Video Quality"

    I agree wholeheartedly with Paul_Scott; I consider reference quality to be as close to the original source as the format will allow, whether demo material or not. I also find that at this stage of the format's life, most new DI-based films from the major studios come out looking that way. It's...

    Blu-ray Review HTF BLU-RAY REVIEW: Watchmen: Director's Cut

    That is it's own separate edition with an MSRP of 49.99. The packaging on it looked rather neat at Best Buy with it's translucent plastic slipcover and digipak-ish case.

    Blu-ray Review HTF BLU-RAY REVIEW: T2 Judgment Day - Skynet Edition

    Apparently there were budget limitations that prevented this edition from having the stuff from previous versions. Many of the docs and featurettes are available to download via BD-Live for separate viewing.

    HTF BD REVIEW: Donnie Darko - Theatrical & Director's Cut

    That was part of what gave the movie lasting appeal to me; I was wracking my brains for a couple of days trying to figure out how everything fit together. Even now I just have a general idea of it, and just sort of trust that the movie is following its own internal logic. Oddly enough I turned...
