I think that this whole 'depth' thing is subjective not objective.

It is great to have something that can't be quanitified to talk about since there are no 'facts' to argue.

This is one of the reasons that I prefer to point out very specific issues with things like VC-1 rather than those vague comments about lacking transfers or 'full of artifacts' without specifically mentioning any single artifact.

In the Lionsgate thread on the other forum I challenged the MPEG2 haters to give me a time code of any MPEG artifact on The Fifth Element or House of Flying Daggers. The only response I got was that these early titles were full of MPEG2 artifacts... but nobody gave me a time code to look at.

Maybe somebody did by now - I gave up on the thread.

I just irks me that these people can take what the reviewers are saying as sacred truth but really don't have any idea of their own. Sorry for the off topic

In any case, these reviewers seem to like their generalisations. And I agree with the previous post the said that the depth is largely up to the cinematographer. There are all kinds of tricks they can choose to employ to give us a sense of depth... if they choose.
