DVDBeaver gave the Peeping Tom Blu the negative review it deserved. StudioCanal's chronic laziness means that we'll probably get the same transfer.sportsgenius86 posted:would buy The Rural Juror Flerg merg glerg flerg merg merg merg tennis merg merg.

I organize chronological, with box sets, multi-film collections, short films, and TV separately. Except I decided to put my "standardized" wacky-C Criterions above my desk because it looked cool.

zenintrude posted:Casino Royale turned Bond into a real person, not a penis with a gun. Quantum of Solace turned him back into a penis with a gun... which would be OK, but [for whatever reason] I found the movie unwatchably boring. Yeah I can see that. I actually saw Quantum of Solace first so that might make a difference to my perception somehow. When I saw Quantum of Solace I liked how Bond was less suave and more out of step, like a guy who murders people for a living might actually behave more so than the older Bonds. So it introduced me to this new Bond, I've never written "Bond" so much. Bond. Casino Royale just seemed kind of boring in comparison. Also I think I had problems with how things unfolded towards the end. I've only seen it once so maybe I should see it again.

Brought this up on Facebook (bored at work). A friend hit me with "I put my blurays in a 400-CD zipper case and throw away the boxes. I don't have the space for shelves and don't care either." I think I heard the sound of the Bluray forums posters' heads exploding. It was sweet music.

zenintrude posted:How do you manage this? Do you separate foreign into their own micro categories, or are the included in the categories at large... or perhaps you consider all of foreign films to be a singular genre. What happens when you have something like Army of Darkness? Is it horror or comedy? How would you categorize something like Armageddon or Independence Day... action or sci-fi? Action/Adventure/Western Comedy Drama Sci-Fi/Fantasy/Horror (AoD, Armageddon, Independence Day) Sorry guys, I don't put much thought into it - I've really slimmed down my DVD collection as we moved to Blu-ray, and we weren't buying stuff that was easily available through Netflix.

Anybody familiar with the Versus Blu-Ray and whether or not it's the same version of the film from the "Ultimate Edition" where they film like 10 more minutes and retooled about 75% of the entire film? I don't really care for the extras as I've seen them a billion times, but I prefer the newer cut above the other ones.

Any word on a Lost Highway Bluray yet? I picked up a DVD version in a bargain bin without reading the back and ended up with the pan-and-scan version which I returned. It's really hard to try and watch that movie in 4:3.

Wow, the Fox version of The Leopard absolutely obliterates the Criterion release. (which of course got full marks for video quality from many 'reviewers' because it's an old film AND a Criterion) http://blubrew.com/2010/12/04/the-leopard-blu-ray-comparison/ Thank Mr. Scorsese for this one. frumpsnake fucked around with this message at 20:57 on Dec 4, 2010 |

Yes you must have something wrong with your eyesight, the new restoration is better in every way. How can you look at these two images, for example, and think the second looks better? http://blubrewdotcom.files.wordpress.com/2010/12/142.jpg http://blubrewdotcom.files.wordpress.com/2010/12/291.jpg

The amount of detail in the new release is incredible compared to the Criterion. http://blubrewdotcom.files.wordpress.com/2010/12/102.jpg http://blubrewdotcom.files.wordpress.com/2010/12/252.jpg Look at her forehead, her eyelashes, her cheeks. They're all so much more detailed. edit- ^^ Holy poo poo, I didn't even look at those two. Yeah, if you don't see how it's better, there is something definitely wrong with your eyesight.

Granted, I'm not in college anymore and don't expect my stuff to get stolen when I have people over, but still.

I'm trying to find what you mean, but the only image I can find with people in the distance whose faces you could actually make out on the Criterion are these http://blubrewdotcom.files.wordpress.com/2010/12/42.jpg http://blubrewdotcom.files.wordpress.com/2010/12/192.jpg because the color saturation is higher on the new transfer. I still think the first one looks better, because of the aspect ratio, regardless.

Sheldrake posted:Final-loving-ly! I hope it's not the HD-DVD transfer... but who am I kidding. Wait, what's wrong with the HD-DVD transfer of Out of Sight? I haven't personally seen it, but I googled some reviews and they're overwhelmingly positive. Granted I know reviews can't always be trusted, but they use some pretty strong language: High-Def Digest posted:How often does an HD DVD come along that exceeds your expectations? DVD Talk posted:Oh hell yeah! This is HD done right. This movie looks utterly fantastic. Right from the first shot, this transfer screams "High Definition," with tons of detail and perfect color reproduction.

You really think that the blurry, haloey mess that is the guy on the right:  Is better than the new one?  Or that this  is better than this, where you can clearly discern individual fingers and facial features?
