Blu-rays are limited to 40MBPS video. A 1hr 45min film with 3MBPS of audio/subs with the video bitrate maxed out will come out to around 32GB. So it's quite possible these discs are pegging the bandwidth of the format (anyone know if Sony ditched their stupid lossless dubs for these discs?).
Should Sony have squished some extras in that space? Yeah. Do I care? not really....
