I can't wait for this one. Definitely a day one purchase for me, such a great film, one of my favorites.

The rest of us are going to love a 4k mastered Spielberg film on Blu-Ray.

No they will be preparing it like Patton....scrub that nasty old grain right out!

No matter, I'll get this BD for sure.

Who cares....it was one of his worst films anyway, critics paned it and really didnt do that great at the box office..what a little of 100?. I can name at least 8 of his films that are better.

I have a feeling there's gonna be some grumbling over the PQ of this one, not just because of the grain but because of the intentional fuzzy, washed out, out-of-focus look of the whole film.

What are you talking about? Minority Report was one of the best reviewed films of the past decade.

It still has a 92 fresh rating on Rotten Tomatoes, and made nearly $360 Million dollars at the box office worldwide.

The OP said its one of his best films

Its not better than

Jaws
Saving Private Ryan
Close Encounters
The Color Purple
Empire of the Sun
E.T.
Schindlers List
Jurassic Park
Raiders (films)
Munich
A.I.
Catch Me if You Can

So it will have to fight it out with whats left

Jurasic 2, Amistad, 1941, Sugarland Express, Hook, The Terminal and that joke a a fourth Indy film.

LOL I'm sure there are lots of people who will take umbrage to your "domestic is all that counts" bit. Good luck with that one.

Pauliesr · 09-11-2009, 04:39 PM

I also cannot wait for this movie. A favorite of mine. One worth watching over and over and over (not all the same night).

Uh... wha? Are you talking about SD DVD or are you saying that grain looks bad on HDTV's? Either way, I disagree because DVD's have the grain scrubbed out of their low-bitrate transfers anyway.

I probably don't know what I'm talking about... but, crux of my post was that I have the DVD, a PS3 and an HDTV, and this is one of my least favorite movies to watch, because it looks like crap.

What are you smoking? I'm sure Spielberg and the producers care an awful lot about that extra $200 Million it made at the box office in other countries.

Domestic is all that counts..

Adam_ME · 09-11-2009, 05:48 PM

Great flick. It's about time more Spielberg movies came out on Blu-ray. I think we only have 2 so far.

The film was selected as Best of the Year by Roger Ebert. It has a RTomatoes score of 92%. If you can name 8 Spielberg films that are better, that's no damn surprise, because the man has made so many great movies.

Moefiz · 09-11-2009, 05:55 PM

I love this movie...

One of Cruise better ones...

Grain or not I will be getting it on day one

It looks like it did in theaters. All home video releases of Steven Spielberg's films are PERSONALLY supervised by Spileberg. If you dislike the transfer for Minority Report on DVD, get ready to start flinging poop like a grain hating Howler Monkey when the BD is released.
