Watching Episode 1 right now on BD and the audio is amazing. I figured I'll rent Episode 1-3 and purchase Episode 4-6. For those wondering my BBV has these out already that's how I'm watching them early.Plus on my rental receipt I got a Free Thor rental coupon good until 11/13, so if anyone else rents this from Blockbuster check your receipt.
The PQ is good not mind blowing for Episode 1 just like the reviewer stated. But tremendously improved upon from the dvd editions obviously. The Picture has most definitely been scrubbed.
The opening segment on Naboo with the first appearance of Jar-Jar will have audio nuts going crazy. Animals, ships all kinds of chaos just zips around the sound field. Lightsabers have never sounded better and when ever the force is used you get this nice low rumbling LFE.
Although not a huge fan of Episode 1-3 I'm sure the audio will have me enjoying it a bit more than in the past.
The Pod Race is amazing, worth watching just for that sequence alone.
