Regret? - Blu-ray Forum

assydingo · 01-01-2009, 03:04 AM

I was curious with all sorts of complaints if anyone has ever regretted going Blu?

Blu-ray can get frustrating with live action movies because of the different quality from scene to scene, especially light and dark. Even than the color is phenomonal if you can get past grain.

I don't regret it going. I do wish they had a LOT more animated titles as they have consistent quality throughout.

Every "film" has grain, except animated movies.

And no, I don't regret it.

I don't regret going Blu at all. I just wish Warner would do a better job with their releases. So no regrets, just a little disappointment sometimes.

No regrets here!

No regrets.

Nope, no regrets here. Absolutely love Blu (HD). Little expensive still (I thought disc prices would have gone down a little bit more this time of year) but definitely worth it.

Amen to that!

No regrets whatsoever. I have loved every minute of it since I got high def, and give me the natural and directors intent grain.

Regret? Well, I decided to buy a new PS3 instead of using the extra money to pay some bills. I have no regrets.

Not at all.I just wish there were more DTS MA 7.1 titles.

Exactly, finally we can see how films were/are intended to be watched.

theokbadguy · 01-01-2009, 03:31 AM

My only regrets are not going Blu sooner (started in March of '08) and not making enough money to buy EVERY Blu thats released lol

thecroshow · 01-01-2009, 03:31 AM

Yeeeeeaaaaa, I agree. I don't regret going Blu, but the prices can be a little frustrating. Especially when a title you really want has an MSRP of $34.99 or more. Just makes it a little difficult to buy the movie no matter how good it is.
