Just look how WB treated the Harry Potter series on Blu. They didn't do anything to make the PQ better on the earlier movies. I really hope they remaster the Harry Potter series later for Blu. As far as LOTR. This is very disappointing. I hope they remaster these films and re-release them too, but it sucks to see they did nothing on the first release of such a big trilogy. WB just cares about sales rather than the quality of the release. Knowing them they will re-release later to make more money with a better transfer. |

Says who? He just approved them.
Which could mean he sat down and watched all 3 films in their entirety, watched just a few minutes of each film, or because he's busy - assumed the studio would do these justice and didn't watch them at all. |

I agree. I would reverse my vote, too. I didn't expect poor PQ. I'll hold on to my 3 extended versions until a better release comes along.

As writers, Jackson, Walsh, and Boyens are so in tune with Tolkien's style and substance that they're able to adapt it as readily and effortlessly as they adapt his stories, all while remaining incredibly true to his text.
That's puzzling, because I don't remember "Nobody tosses a Dwarf!" and "Toss me!" and all the other stupid jokes inserted by Boyens and Walsh into Tolkien's text. |

Well, this went from Day 1 buy to total pass. I will wait for the EE's now I guess in the hopes that there is a better transfer. I was totally fine double (or even triple) dipping as long as the quality was there.
Bad form New Line. Rather than making all that excess money from fans, you've lost yourselves countless sales. |

Are you sure PJ saw all 5 masters? I think anyone would get weary after watching 5 versions of 9 hours+ of movie material. There might have been infighting between different interests in Warner. There is probably a better version waiting in the wings to get people to double-dip.

The ru=b is that most DTS decoders are "Essentials" which means they'll ignore the matrixed channel and output only 5.1. My $2500 Onkyo 905 (which does Dolby EX just fine) and my OPPO BD--83 are "Essentials" only so I have to rely on my 1st gen PS3 to decode the 6.1. ![]() |

Personally that is why I enjoyed the movies MORE than the books. I thought the books were really dry and too detail oriented As for the release... as most of you are... I am dissapointed. It is sad to hear of such bad picture quality in one of my fav movies of all time(FotR). That being said I wasn't dissapointed with Gladiator that much so hopefully I will just enjoy the upgrade in sound and not notice anything glaring in the PQ. |

For one, I found the theatrical presentations somewhat flat and artificial looking (TTT being particularly ugly), so I'm not sure what all the fuss is about here. |

Wow... so Labyrinth, a children's film from 1986 gets a video rating of 4.0 while the modern classic Fellowship from 2001, gets a 2.5 or 3.0 -- What an absolute joke and a shame. With what Warner Bros is doing with their Netflix 30 days wait time and now this, I'm tempted to never support them again.
Said thing is though, this trilogy will sell millions despite the lackluster video effort and what a few hundred peeps on here do... At this rate, I'm suprised they even included lossless sound! |
