There Will Be Blood - Blu-ray Forum

havoc752 · 01-08-2008, 01:05 AM

I just saw this movie last night, and I can easily say it's one of the best films I've seen in the last 10 years. If I'm not mistaken, I believe this film was distributed by Paramount Vantage and/or Miramax. I know Paramount is still affiliated with HD-DVD, but I wasn't sure about Miramax. Does this film have any chance of becoming blu?

Do yourself a favor and go see TWBB if you have the opportunity. The movie itself is a bit long, and slow building, but Daniel Day Lewis delivers an incredible performance. Great film.

Looks like, according to IMDB, Paramount has all media rights in the US.

My girlfriend's sister is in that movie. She plays his mom in flashbacks or something like that. My girl won't stop talking about it. Maybe I should take her hey?

Movie of the YEAR! CAN NOT WAIT

Magnolia and Boogie nights are by the same guy, 2 of my fave movies all time.

Minimejer05 · 01-08-2008, 02:41 AM

Oh I hope it gets a Blu treatment. Ive been wanting to see this since I saw the trailer months back.

ulri4651 · 01-08-2008, 02:51 AM

Yes Paul Thomas Anderson directed it. He is such an underrated director. Its his 5th film- Hard Eight, Boogie Nights, Magnolia, Punch Drunk Love, and There Will Be Blood.

Five wonderfully great films!

Damn, I'm hearing so many good things about this flick! I know it is expanding in release, anyone know when it will be a wide release?

I will have to wait until this hits DVD (Or Blu-Ray) to watch it.

I have a question though. How would you guys rate this compared to No Country For Old Men.

It seems like these 2 movies are #1 and #2 on most critics lists, and I saw No Country and thought it was amazing.

No Country for old men is definitely my favorite film of the last 5 years...TWBB is also excellent, but it's a little bit slower paced. It's a brilliant movie though, and I definitely give it my highest recommendation. I think it only has a limited release though, which is unfortunate

spf781 · 01-08-2008, 12:18 PM

'There Will Be Blood'...are you guys sure that isn't the name of a documentary on this year's CES?

Kidding aside, this is a great film. They should just hand Daniel Day-Lewis his Best Actor Oscar right now.

"I'm finished." Hearing those two words in my mind still gives me chills.

EDIT: D'oh! MattX beat me to the punch on the CES joke. Sorry 'bout that, Matt!

blackhawktraffic · 01-28-2008, 12:36 AM

Good movie, DDL did an amazing job acting, hope it ends up on Blu

Both excellent films, I think "No Country for Old Men" is the best film of the year. Love the Choen(or is it Coen) bros, their movies are usually superb; "Fargo", "Blood Simple":

etc.

Its Coen BTW lol. I liked NCFOM but TWBB was better in my opinion, and this is coming from someone who didn't care for Punch Drunk Love. I think the adoption from the book to screen on No Country was excellent but the lack of a score kinda annoyed me seeing as it could have be done very well, but thats me. Either way it will be interesting to see who wins the most awards.

sj001 · 01-28-2008, 02:10 AM

I am definitely seeing this one next weekend. It got pushed aside by Rambo, but since EVERYONE thinks it's so great, I've added it to my must see list. Daniel Day-Lewis has always been an excellent actor in every movie he has been in.

Oh, when I saw the thread title, I thought you meant the demise of HDDVD (sorry, I had to go there..............)

TheDarkKnight86 · 01-25-2008, 08:04 PM

I saw this flick last weekend and was quite disappointed. DDL did a great job, but that wasn't enough to keep me engaged in the storyline, which left me rather bored through the majority of the film. I see it is getting great reviews and has high ratings on imdb. Anyone else feel the same as I do or was there something in my popcorn?

whiskeyred · 04-03-2008, 01:45 PM

any word on this as a blu ray release?

SilverFireshot · 04-03-2008, 01:47 PM

In before angry mob.

I thought it was fantastic by the way.
