Movies people say "Should" look good on Blu-ray

[Beta Man]

Not to pick on Pat, but I saw this post in a thread discussing Juraissic Park potentially coming to blu-ray, and it echoed SO MANY other posts I've read about The Dark Knight, LOTR, and even Tropic Thunder.......

Here was the comment (again, not picking on Pat! )

I'm confused to why people would say this...... Like LOTR should look AMAZING on blu-ray...... The Abyss should look FANTASTIC on blu-ray..... Dune should look OUTSTANDING on Blu-ray...... Running Man should look INCREDIBLE on blu-ray.... ETC ETC ETC.....

I look at it this way...... If all of this is true, Shouldn't "Total Recall" and "Terminator 2" look "Unbelievable" on blu-ray??


Bad transfers happen to movies that have a lot of potential...... just like comedies etc. that people wouldn't expect much from, often have outstanding AQ/PQ

Wouldn't EVERYTHING shot on film (not some T.V. shows obviously) have the potential to look amazing, just as everything has the potential to disappoint (and earn its spot in one of our countless "most dissapointing Blu-ray" threads!!!! )

Just my thoughts......
