Transformers, Lossless audio??? - Blu-ray Forum

savage1984 · 05-27-2008, 03:04 PM

Simple poll question... haters of Transformers need not respond...

If/When Paramount announces specs for Transformers and it has lossless audio,
Will you be relieved, exhilarated, or a little bit of both?

Where's the option for "enough of these threads, already!"

I love Transformers. I'm excited for it. But... sheesh.

Beta Man · 05-27-2008, 03:06 PM

"other"

Apathetic.... regardless.

More than a little of both. A lot of both haha. I can't wait till they do... which they WILL! hopefully....

It better have lossless audio. But who am I kidding I will still buy it if not.

stockstar1138 · 05-27-2008, 03:06 PM

how about satisfied as a consumer, as loseless should be the bare MINIMUM for all blu-ray releases.

Paramount had already moved to lossless. Next, Top Gun all had PCM tracks on them. All new releases will carry Dolby THD, so don't worry about it

KenThompson · 05-27-2008, 03:12 PM

Dreamworks first bd Bee Movie had tru HD so lets hope they give us some more of the same. Since Bay was such a bd fan he may have this rev'd up and use the extra space for a truely magnificient gem. One can dream.

Didnt maxpower say TF WILL have a PCM track?

Ha!! I was just looking for that post when I read your reply.

Glad to see some of us are on the same page.

MacDaddyOJack · 05-27-2008, 03:37 PM

Not that I have any reason to doubt MaxPower, but nothing is set in stone yet so I'm still a bit skeptical. Still crossing my fingers for lossless though

JeremyPiven · 05-27-2008, 03:56 PM

Doesn't matter. You will have it in your hot little hands in a few months.

Of course it matters! I spent a lot of money on new gear for lossless audio so I would like for it to have lossless audio. I will probably still buy it even if it has the DD+ like the HD-DVD version....

I feel releaved because Wicky is always correct about this stuff.

I hope they fix the LFE issue that the HD DVD had with the lossy audio track. My friend has Transformers on HD Dead and the LFE was MIA.

It wasn't MIA, it was mixed in with the main channels.

XundeadhunterX · 05-27-2008, 04:51 PM

i doubt they will do anything too special besides the UR DC with a few extra commentary; but paramount wont redue transformers for a blu-ray release it would be tooooooooooooooo expensive so it will most likely be a port with some extra features. i mean they could redue it for a blu relase cause they could afford it but why do that and have less money

UKTruBlu · 05-27-2008, 04:53 PM

relieved that we weren't given an HD DVD knock off.

so, is that the reason for the delay until September (approx)? Or was it purely commercial reasons, IOW for the money?

I am not a huge fan of this movie but I will buy it to try to get my moms b/f to switch from DVD to BD.
