I liked the list idea. Should we just do Top 10 Overall or do Best A/V, Best Supplements, etc.? e:fb Add Best Concert Blu and Best TV Blu, I guess Nut Bunnies fucked around with this message at 06:18 on May 4, 2010 |

It's been pretty much knocked down from the list since it was first released, but the first Blu-Ray to truly blow me away was No Country For Old Men. The colors and detail were ridiculous.

FitFortDanga posted:I used to like the digibooks, but now I think of them as a waste of space. They never have anything interesting in them. It's not like a Criterion booklet where you get a couple of scholarly essays. It's usually just a bunch of press kit crap and a few trivial factoids that are generally covered in the bonus features anyway. That's what I said from the start  Most digibooks are being rereleased in real packaging anyway.

Ah yes. While Universal kicks it like it's 2006 via DNR, Fox does it with their prices.

Fox is releasing White Collar S1 on 7/13. They are, of course, shoving 14 episodes on 3 discs like they did to Burn Notice S2.

Bambi posted:Looks like Fox took a minor dump on The Illusionist which is due this coming Tuesday. It's a barebones BD-25 - there are special features, but only on the included DVD copy of the movie. There are also no subtitles on the Blu-Ray Just to add to this, DVDBeaver says it's the exact same disc as the Alliance release, bilingual menus and all. Just buy that one if you want it.

Volcasarus ReX posted:I really like how they are trying to get blurays out a lot sooner after the movies hit theaters. It didn't take that long for Alice in Wonderland to come out and if Amazon.com is to be believed they will have The Losers out on bluray two months after it was released in theaters. Alice in Wonderland iirc was going to come out even sooner, but the theaters went nuclear.

Sporadic posted:Problem with this is that the MSRP on the Blu-Ray is $10 more and that it is still a two-disc release (meaning Fox is cheaping out and using single-layer discs) while the DVD is three. Precisely. When I say "Hey wouldn't it be cool to say, have a full season of The Simpsons on a disc?" I don't mean "Gee, I hope they just throw the season onto a couple of discs and then charge regular Blu-Ray prices!!!!" I mean that I hope they condense it into one disc and a lower price. This is just the worst of both worlds.

You keep insisting that they have to be 1080p24fps. Uhhhh...why, exactly? When discussing smashing an entire season on one disc, I don't think anyone except maybe you expects that they'll be 1080p. It is a lovely cashgrab. That's it. That's all it is. It's not worth continuing to argue about.
