Sonny · 12-20-2007, 04:37 PM

The BD of Cast Away says its in 2.35.1 which would definitely have the black bars , But I pop it in last night & BAM its in full sreen like 1.85.1 or 1.78.1 or what ever

, so who got it wrong??

It's listed as 1.85 on HDD.

(Note that the back of the Blu-ray box incorrectly lists the film's aspect ratio as 2.35:1; it is in fact 1.85:1.)

Is it like the one from Jurassic Park 3 that can call the US Navy to any beach in the world?

If only he had opened the box instead of talking to Wilson for so long...

I've yet to see this movie. Is it worth it? How is the PQ/AQ?

I thought it was really good overall, definitely worth watching at least once. It's sort of one of those ones you love, or you think it's boring. Not sure on PQ/AQ yet, but most FOX titles are at least good in this department.

Crank also says 2.35 on the box but actually is 1.85, strange.

Cast Away looks fantastic!
The setting on a tropical island lends itself to vivid colors and allot of detailed textures.

I highly recommend this movie on Blu.

I'd give the PQ a 4/5 and AQ 5/5. good PQ, but not demo material. It's a little soft in scenes. Sound is great.
