Default Slumdog on Blu

I saw Slumdog Millionaire last night and all I can say is wow! That movie was fantastic. I'd have to say The Dark Knight and Slumdog are my 2 favorite movies probably from the last several years.

However, watching Slumdog in the theatre, the colors and the blacks were all washed out, definitely a fry cry from hi-def....I kept thinking I can't wait to see this on Blu-Ray when it allows the colors to really pop!

I really want this movie as well, ive heard nothing but good things, does anyone know when this is coming out on blu?
When i got home that evening, I went straight to the garage and practiced my draw and SHOUT techniques as well as my roll, somersault and aim drills and made myself a promise that I would never ever be caught off-guard again.-dfinch

hey there!

Check out this thread

http://forum.blu-ray.com/showthread.php?t=79672

Not sure how certain the release date is - Australia has since been confirmed as March 3rd, and not Feb 24th as mentioned in the above thread, so maybe Slumdog wont be far off the date mentioned here

I wonder how they are going to do the subtitles since they are literally all over the image.

Best subtitles I have ever seen, I will be very pissed if they change them to "normal" ones.

Right behind TDK for Best movie of 2008. I thought Slumdog was just overrated before I actually went to the theater and saw it. Amazing, can't wait for the Blu!!!

How can you think a movie is overrated if you hadn't seen it?

Maybe over-hyped would be a better term....but now I've seen it I can say it is definitely worthy of all the praise!

Idk...I saw it last night and I thought it was mediocre. I gave it a 7. I like Benjamin Button a whole lot better.

Is there a SDM thread in the movie section? I need someone to explain to me why it was so good. It did nothing for me. HIGHLY overrated.
