Misprint on back Pirates of the Caribbean: AWE: 1080i or 1080p? Answer: 1080 P - Blu-ray Forum

blackhawktraffic · 12-02-2007, 12:22 AM

So Im at work in the back room looking for Superbad and Pirates 3 On BD....well come to find out apparently it is 1080i for the movie. Im sure this is a mistake but was amazed both the slipcover and the actual case both say 1080i instead of 1080p. Anybody else at any other retailers or happened to come across the BD early notice this on those ones as well? I couldn't get a good picture of the back showing it with my phone though.

Hmm... if this misprint is true for all copies, I wouldn't be surprised to see another wave of FUD headed our way from the red ants, trying to make a mountain out of a molehill again.

Yeah I can just hear all the shit now, hopefully its just the box of em we got, but who knows haven't heard anything from anyone at Best Buy or other Targets.

Well the Disney store shows this

Feast your eyes on the sumptuous visual brilliance of 1080p while your ears revel in the richness of 5.1 48 kHz, 24-bit uncompressed audio. You will believe - thanks to Blu-ray™ High Definition. Rated PG-13.

Maybe they are going HD-DVD, and just using the same encode, since the "flood" of crippled 1080i HD-DVD players on the market.

I noticed the CRAPPY STYLE BD case as well...

Just got back from BB with my copy of POTC 3 and looking at the packaging is says....."1080i High Definition" for the feature as well as the bonus disc.......should this not say 1080p at least for the movie?

I'm sure it's just an error on the packaging......

No doubt, as word of this gets out, that the dud gang will find some way to twist this against BD as a whole.

Who give a flying *F* about the HD-DUD gang.....it's a simple typo...the disc is 1080p......should have been caught by the editors....but oh well......

E-Dogg · 12-04-2007, 04:12 PM

Why does the video on the back of the box art and the Blu-Ray case itself both state only 1080i instead of 1080p?

Heh.. another problem with "Pirates" movies on BD...at least this one is nothing major... a simple typo.
Glad to know it is only a typo.
