    A Few Words About While we wait for A few words about...™ Raiders of the Lost Ark -- in Blu-ray

    Here's my complaint about the Raiders Blu-ray... The image is so detailed, I saw something I wish I hadn't seen. When Indy and Satipo are making their way into the cave at the beginning of the movie, a few moments BEFORE the spider scene we see Indy's back (long shot as they move away from the...

    Add my name to the string of folks agreeing with Mark! I saw Raiders in the theater at least a dozen times and it did NOT look as over-saturated and blue as the DVD screen grabs. I also feel the Blu-ray color palette is MUCH more realistic. Take this shot, for example: The shadows tell us...
