HBO on Blu-Ray - Blu-ray Forum

MMtech · 04-21-2007, 01:51 AM

I'm holding off purchasing shows like Rome and Carnivale because I'm hoping that they will be released on blu-ray later down the line.

Do I hope in vain?

I know at least Band of Brothers is slated for it, though there is no official date. As for the ones you mentioned, I don't know.

I saw Sopranos season 6 part 1 on blu-ray... why season six? and why "part 1"? Does that mean that it's not a full season?

They just started part 2 a few weeks ago.

Was Soprano's BD excellent or what?

Personally I am hoping that HBO releases the full box set (all seasons) of Sopranos in BD, as well as Band of Brothers and especially ROME.

Were the earlier seasons all made in HD? If Season 1 wasn't, that might explain why they're opting for later seasons?

I'd certainly like to see "Carnivale" released on BD - it was clearly shot in HD, and even the SD downconvert looked amazing on DVD.

Another HBO production I'd like to see on HD is "The Notorious Bettie Page", which I rented on DVD this week and greatly enjoyed.

BoBW most tv series are shot on FILM, so all episodes are "HD"

The only ones that aren't are the ones that
A: were shot on NTSC/PAL videotape
or
B: edited on NTSC/PAL video tape and that's the only master there is.

I just can't wait for Band of Brothers, IMO one of the best TV shows ever made and to watch at super 1080p would be pure sex.
