Fool's Gold - Blu-ray Forum

Wow the title says it for this Blu-Ray release. Did Warner not like this movie or something. A brand new release just out of theatres with no lossless audio and almost no extras at all. I couldn't believe it. They really mailed it in on this one.

The movie itself was not bad but c'mon Warner.

I thought it was absolutely painful to watch it last night. One of the worst movies in my opinion.

Wasn't bad at all, two actors with good chemistry made it mildly entertaining. Don't be drama queens.

I thought so too

Got the movies a couple days ago and watched last night. I thought it was better than I expected. Sure, no lossless audio and no extras. (well, some, with interviews with Mat and kate)

but overall, I think it was a good entertaining movie.

I enjoyed the movie.. (better than the MEET THE SPARTANS)<-- man, this was such a waste of 1.5 hour of my time that I could have used somewhere else.

Thank god I rented them.

Standard issue Warner right there. No concern over putting out the best quality releases they can, they'd rather pump out single layer DD releases and count $$$ than actually put a bit of effort in.

Normally I'd say a romantic comedy (even though this one was a little bit of an adventure too) wouldn't need lossless, but the airplane and the wave crashing scenes could have been over the top in this one.

The movie was good enough for me for what it is and I enjoyed the eyecandy.

I liked it.

owa · 06-20-2008, 05:56 PM

I really enjoyed the movie but was surprised they didn't include lossless on a new release (especially for an adventure type movie). Having said that, the non-lossless audio didn't bother me when watching the movie but I hope they'll eventually get with the program and release lossless like everyone else.

WB's other recent release, The Bucket List, also didn't have lossless audio.

This really should be unacceptable for movies right out of theatres. Those all should have lossless audio on them.
