Doesn't reading what Bjoern has to say get you psyched up to see another update to his website? :) It's pretty sad when 99.9% of dvds are crippled because of stupidity, ineptness, or even worse, ignorance. I don't doubt it will carry over into the HD formats. If they couldn't get 480p right...

You're greatly missed, Bjoern. I visit your website almost every other day hoping another fantastic update will come along.

I'm still betting there'll be a 2pack or some kind of deal. Whatever it is I'm waiting for it. :D Funny how in a few years when the HD versions come out people will compare them to these editions and see how fuzzy and lifeless they are.

Yes, Toy Story was remixed by Gary Rydstrom, the original sound designer. He also remixed his Terminator 2 soundtrack and for some reason a section of music is no longer audible in the opening battle sequence. This is similar to what happened to the Star Wars dvd where a piece of John William's...

Better compression. :emoji_thumbsup:

DVDBeaver comparison

I was being sarcastic. Someone posts reduced sized screenshots and expects anyone to make a fair judgement. Note to posters: if you're going to post screenshots for a critical discussion please post them in their native 720x480 resolution or blown up to 1920x1080 via bicubic or even 856x480...

That comparison is amazing... I disagree with the notion that subtle sounds can't be done in a theater. I've seen several movies that have had rich detailed soundtracks and even in a barn like Grauman's Chinese the subtle sounds came thru well. Panic Room comes to mind. I guess the sound...

Still sounds kind of vague. I can understand remixing a soundtrack to better use the LFE channel or changing levels but why would the EQ need to be changed? Stuff like that should be done in the audio chain level, not mastering. Also, I'm also not really clear on bringing audio elements "in" for...

I'm not sure about all this remixing stuff. Even though Rydstrom is obviously a genius I keep on remembering that his remix for the T2: Extreme Edition had a moment where the music was dialed down, ala Star Wars dvd. Probably also a creative decision but still... I've always wondered what...

Maybe not a few months later but eventually. They're very patient with this stuff. I say an upgraded Bug's Life is very likely though.

Disney can pull a moratorium at anytime.

So who else thinks that we'll see brand new editions of A Bug's Life, Monster's Inc, and maybe Finding Nemo within the next year?

The previous dvd had a direct-to-digital output. That was one of the new selling points. The previous laserdiscs came from film sources.

There needs to be screenshot comparisons, Bjoern style. Simple adjectives don't do it anymore.
