Thanks TravisR! I've been watching the last two seasons and just watched The End couple days ago. So much stuff happening and I guess my brain just overloaded of all the information... but I definately loved the whole series and the finale was the high point for me. Personally I think the...
Hi everyone. I'd like to ask a question... I think the series answered this question in the late episodes but I guess my brain just fried... :) Since Michael died on the island and is one of these whispering ghosts that can't move on, why didn't the drowned Korean couple & blowned up...
Received my UK tin box the other day and I checked the movies on my 92" screen... What a big disappointment! Part I is okay, good in close-ups but wideshots are too processed looking (why apply edge enchantment?). Still okay I guess. But unfortunately Universal went cheap on the sequels and it...
Just looked up the comparison screenshots (HDTV vs Blu-ray) at the AVS forum and I'm soooooooooooo disappointed! Universal does Gladiator again! HDTV version looks so much better! Someone really needs to stop these studios "enhancing" or "remastering" if this is the best they can do! Lame...
I finally watched every Firefly episode followed by Serenity movie during one quiet weekend. There's been a while (several years actually) since I last watched either the series or the movie, and was curious if they would still hold up. And sure they do! What a great show! I wish there were more...
Not to mention subtitles are dumbed down as is the 'introduction text' at the beginning of the film. Waiting for the eventual Hong Kong blu-ray... Too bad.
Great news! Hope they don't DNR it to death. For me FWWM is the pinnacle of the whole Twin Peaks saga. It's visually and emotionally stunning.
Would love to get Twin Peaks series in Blu aswell.
Need to pick this up soon. Please tell me Blue Underground has the rights for Suspiria? That movie must have an A-grade transfer and disc. Recently released Italian Blu-ray doesn't have english subtitles/audio.
My god this was so horrible (Bond) movie! The only good thing about Die Another Day is that it laid the path towards Casino Royale and Daniel Craig. Still, completioinist in me must have it...
Yes, this will be mine! JFK (director's cut) is my all-time favourite movie, even though I have no interest in all the hoople with politics, presidency etc. This is truly amazing and captivating movie from beginning to end. Can't wait to have this cinematic masterpiece in HD!
Looking forward to watching this. I just got it from amazon.com. However I got only the basic plastic blu-ray case, I think I read somewhere that the blu-ray came with a shiny cardboard slipcase? Did anyone get that version?
I just recently got through my dvd-boxset and hadn't seen Reloaded & Revolutions before that. My first reaction after seeing them was that the Matrix sequels were really great and had the same level of brilliance like the first one! I truly enjoyed these much maligned sequels and couldn't grasp...
Answering to myself. Someone at the AVS forum posted disc info and there's only Japanese language option in addition to the back cover specs. Still ordered the boxset from amazon since they dropped price to $74.95! Thanks Cameron for your great review!
Any chance there being Finnish subtitles also? I'd really appreciate if anybody could check that out. it would be way cheaper to order from States. Thanks!
Yeah, I also didn't find acting anything special. Not that it was bad. The story was far more interesting though. Loved Gellar's bimbo performance :) Thing that really caught me off-guard was how frighteningly real Kelly's near future America was portrayed. Damn fascinating movie.
Finally received my Southland tales dvd last week and watched it yesterday. I was a bit nervous since most of the reviews were crapping all over it. But I loved it. I can see why people hate it, but I found it extremely fascinating watching it out first time and marveling the rich tapestry it...
Robert, care to shed some light on this? Anyway, I agree. Paramount needs to improve their practise. They just seem to be eager to grab our money any way they can. Too bad I like Star Trek, since they have perfected their rip tactic with that franchise.
Thanks Nicholas! It seems R1 transfer doesn't suffer as bad as R2. I'd definately upgrade to R1 but won't because of those missing previosly parts. Shame. Hopefully they will add them back if and when the HD version is released.
Hi, I recently bought 55" inch RPTV and have been checking various tv show dvd releases I got for their picture quality. Yesterday I decided to check how Buffy and Angel would look like and noticed huge difference in Angel's season 4 dvd transfers compared to say season 2,3 and 5. Season 4...
Weird how opinions differ... I've seen half of the second season (R2 version part 1/2 of season 2 set) and was blown away (audio & video wise) with it. I found that audio track was mixed far better than Artisans' season 1 set. Also video seemed a bit better, more detail, better color balance...
Some not so good news about Twin Peaks Season 2 dvd set. One guy in another forum said he has the dvd set that contains the first half of Season 2 and it doesn't have 'previously in Twin Peaks' -bits! He has the German R2 set, but it's quite certain that it's same deal for the rest of europe and...
Guys, what Yamaha models you have? I've got RX-V650 (european model). Sadly I can't test Deadwood: Season 1 or 2 with it since all my speakers, receiver and other stuff are packed away (we're building our house) and I can test those dvds until late summer.
It's a damn shame "Triangle" still seems to have that lousy transfer/second generation master look to it in these re-releases. I hope when the eventual HD-version boxsets are released Carter & Co give us a proper transfer. They have to, it's one of my favorite episodes of The X-Files!
Still no advance reviews for the R1 sets (especially the gift set)? Odd since there are few R2 reviews already around. Well the good thing is there's only a couple of weeks to go I guess. :)
