    :DI did catch that and have noticed that any screen cap with fire has a similar degrade to the flames due to the tint. How about the tinted green soap suds/smoke at Bilbos b-day? Certainly that must be intentional!:D I think Kens post said it best........all signs point to error at this point.

    A Few Words About A few words about...™ The Lord of the Rings Trilogy - Extended Edition -- in Blu-ray

    Hi Doug, My experience with Ken as a reviewer has been MUCH different and while no reviewer is perfect 100% of the time, Ken is one of the best overall IMO. We can agree to disagree though. His latest comments in the bluray.com thread for anyone interested are worth reading by the...

    It is obvious that there is a general respect for Ken not only from HT enthusiasts, but his fellow reviewers (such as RAH who agreed with this before deleting his post for whatever reason) as well if you have spent any time at the various forums around the net. Of course there will always be...

    Ken Brown is one of the best and most respected reviewers around which is where much of this info is coming from. Needless to say, I dont agree with you and we can leave it at that. There is good and bad info at every site by the way. We can all weed through that on our own.

    You got suspended from the LOTR EE bluray thread over at bluray.com correct? What happened there?

    In all due respect, that is horrible advice. Do you only seek ONE review when making a major purchase? I know I dont because I want to get a general consensus which can only be obtained by reading as much info as possible. If everyone ONLY read RAHs review, they would not have ANY clue about...

    All of those versions though were in the same ballpark and the different color timings were nothing as extreme as applying a green filter to what seems to be the entire film in the EE blu ray version. Some scenes such as the snowy mountain ones it is easier to see than others obviously, but from...

    Merrick, No offense taken. You are entitled to your opinion, as am I. I am going to leave it at that with you since I am not interested in arguing. Happy you and others are excited in which case simply ignore my posts and those of us who are less than thrilled with what we are seeing. If...

    That comment was my opinion based on everything I have seen and read up to this point of which Ken and Ralphs reviews/comments were only part of. Also, I am of the firm belief at this point that a mistake was made with this transfer from everything I have seen and read (only an official...

    The more I see of videos and screen shots, combined with the reviews of Ken Brown, Ralph Potts and other various users, the more convinced I am that there MUST have been an error along the way at some point. That first youtube video linked above looks horrible as the green tint just kills this...

    God of War III

    Definitely play 1 and 2 first. I just recently played these for the first time (the collection in HD) and these are 2 fantastic games.......3 should be even better!

    Warner & Netflix announce a way to throttle BD new releases

    I certainly dont like this move. Apparently Netflix feels this will be a good business move, but as a consumer there is nothing good about it for me. If BB does not end up doing this as well, I will grab Warner rentals from them I suppose........glad I got some R1G1 coupons at BB.

    Blu-ray Review HTF BLU-RAY REVIEW: 9 (Animated Film)

    Watched this last night and enjoyed the film. I thought the audio was up there with the best animated films I have listened to overall. Amazing use of the LFE channel........it was not just insanely powerful when called for, but also subtle when needed and all the dif tones and volumes just...

    Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen (2009)

    I find it interesting how big of a gap there is between opinions on this one. Check out this thread which most people rave about this film...... Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen Discussion (SPOILERS) - Blu-ray Forum I thought the first one was one hell of a fun shut your brain off ride...

    I just dont see why his opinion could not have been placed in one of the current threads instead of starting a whole new thread 7-8 months after release......Even though he is "RAH" he is still just one opinion. If everyone started a thread on here stating an opinion of any given movie it would...

    No offense, but welcome to last year. I agree that the IH is reference all the way, but does this need a new thread considering this was released 7-8 months ago?

    Blu-ray Review HTF Blu-ray Review: Underworld: Rise of the Lycans

    Besides a few exceptions, I watch all my films somewhere between reference level and -5 from reference level.....why would you not want to watch near ref level unless you dont like it loud and dynamic (which would be OK)? I have my speakers setup in the standard rec 7.1 arrangement in a somewhat...

    Blu-ray Review HTF Blu-ray Review: Underworld: Rise of the Lycans

    Watched this over the weekend and while I agree the dialog was a bit low, especialy compared to 1 and 2 which I also watched, there were only a couple brief moments where I actualy could not make out what was said. I watched at -1 from reference. Minor issue at best. I completely disagree with...

    Blu-ray Review HTF Blu-ray Review: Underworld: Rise of the Lycans

    Toddwrt, are you still not capable of playing the full TrueHD track with your equipment? I have not read one other review that mentions dialog being mixed much too low.......some have complained about the type of dialog being used, but that is not the fault of the sound design/mix/recording...

    Is the LOTR Blu-Ray due sooner than we think?

    I could say the same about you and a few others here......I certainly get the feeling that you believe what you want to believe as well.....some of your posts have not been all that pleasant either. Its obvious at this point that neither of us are going to convince the other of our "opinion" and...

    Is the LOTR Blu-Ray due sooner than we think?

    Wow. Guys, it is not that big of a deal. I believe the poster said the article was about the upcoming Hobbit films and PJ makes a brief mention that he just recently watched the EEs of the LOTR movies for the first time in years and made a statement to the affect that the EEs really filled in...

    Is the LOTR Blu-Ray due sooner than we think?

    He does not say those exact words which I allready explained......From what he said, MY INTERPRETATION was he atleast holds the EEs as equal to the TEs and it could be perceived as him prefering the EEs as well. You might perceive it dif than I did...... Try bluray.com then.....it was on one...

    I will track it down when I feel like backtracking through those threads which could take a bit of time. I will link it when I find it......

    Is the LOTR Blu-Ray due sooner than we think?

    Lets just leave it at that. IMO, the variable AR version IS the one that closest represents the way he meant the film to be seen (IMAX variable AR version) which is what we get on BR;)
