I haven't had much problems with the few 3d films I've seen. But since I heard that brightness complaint from others I said to myself - ok so why can't they just make the prints brighter?

Glad to see Bay did it and it worked.

I think people have posted that a lot of the times it's the theatres adjusting the brightness down to prolong the life of the bulb in their projectors.

Did they really not include the Theatrical Trailers for any of these films on here? I like having the films on Blu, but I was already somewhat let down by them not including the Star Wars: Empire of Dreams A&E documentary from the DVD trilogy. So are the trailers nowhere on the Blus?

dcowboy7 · 02-24-2012, 02:01 PM

The clone wars on cartoon net starts a 4 episode arc tonite that will end the season.

Darth Maul makes his comeback in it....should be interesting to see how they put him back together again.

I'm thinking CLONE.

dcowboy7 · 02-24-2012, 03:11 PM

No supposedly its really him.

Chordata · 02-24-2012, 03:17 PM

It is supposedly really him, which is utterly absurd even in the Star Wars universe. That said...I'm game and will tune in! lol

Looking to buy the three bonus discs from the complete saga. PM if interested.

Nope. Not there, unfortunately.

Not really that absurd, especially since he now reportedly

If you think about it, both Darth Vader and General Grievous both survived near-death experiences and were brought "back" with some kind of life-sustaining technology.

Hey fellas, I thought I'd give you guys something to read. I think it'd make for some good conversation:

Haaahahahhahahahahhahaahahahahahahahaha.

no, not even close. both detail AND color are crazy off in these shots. I have yet to see anything beat the Bluray versions in picture quality.

Same for me, watching the 9-disc set is making me feel like i'm watching it for the first time all over again. I'm noticing so many things i never did before.

If you watch A New Hope in the desert scene when R2 is creeping along alone just before he gets attacked by the Jawas, you can see a bunch of green moss on rocks behind him - the detail is spectacular! I watched one of my old original VHS copies to compare and see if you can see the moss, and it's just a slight blur, would have never been noticed without the bluray restoration.

So many other random texture details have stuck out and surprised me, theres apparently a Jabba the hut mural on the sail barge in return of the jedi that i've never seen before - it was always too dark and blurred out before.

I have no complaints on picture quality anywhere on the blurays.
