i just find it funny that the actual boat going down took less time then the movie...but hey they musta done something right it's the highest grossing movie ever...

i dont typically enjoy movies based on tragedies that actually happened...i'm sure it'll look lovely in hi def though.

Yup, disc sales are going to be very telling with this movie.

please.....on blu it would be 1080p...

Has anyone ever compared 1080p to 1080i side to side? I have, you can't discern any difference. The info is shot onto the screen much faster than the human eye can detect. I have better than 20/20 vision, it has been tested by the military to be 15/20. I have been told that if it is on a 60 inch or larger screen and you are sitting within 5 feet of the screen that you might be able to detect a slight difference during very hectic action scenes. Just a marketing excuse to get people to spend an extra $1,000 for a tv.

Actually, you don't need to have excellent vision to see the difference between I and P. Granted, most people will never see it, those that are aware of it can notice it.

I personally have seen it a few times. The scene gets so busy, stuff gets blurred or disappears.
