New Line, with The Lord of the Rings, you guys have on your hands what will probably go down in the books as one of the best, and most spectacular fantasy adventure series in Hollywood history, and would like to congradulate you on the smashing critical and box office acclaim this film is recieving, it deserves every bit of it!
Although it may be a bit early to talk about the dvd of this film, I knew that you guys don't mess around, and thought I would take the intiative now, as i'm sure the dvd is probably already in it's planning stages.
The focus of this thread is not the entire dvd release as a whole, i'm sure the extras from you are going to be spectacular. Rather, I started this thread to focus on the film itself, and how it/they will be presented on your dvd's when we get them.
You have consistantly provided us with remarkable product over the years, however your handling of the 'Rush Hour 2' dvd has me a bit concerned. Quite simply, I believe that you tried to cram too much onto one disc with that film, and as a result, the image quality was compromised. The dts track in particular is a major culprit because as you are aware, eat's up a lot of disc space, plus with all the extra's, it's all just too much for one dvd.
Which brings me to the purpose of this thread, I would like to request that this film/s be spread over two discs instead of your usual one.
If you choose to include a dts track, please take a cue from Disney, they opted to spread 'Pearl Harbor' over two discs, and as a result, optimal image quality was maintained throughout.
With 'LOTR's', you have the chance to produce what will no doubt be an EXTREMLY high regarded and desired dvd series, that will be scrutinized by many dvd experts and fans. The fans of this amazing film, and it's two counterparts, are expecting nothing less than perfection from you.
The Lord of the Rings film series deserve only the best transfers you can muster.
Thank You.
