It come's down to who get's happy with what. I know this will come out wrong but there is also just no pleasing certain people. They will nitpick and complain and so on. I did not see Gladiator but I remember the big discussion back in April 09 about the release of Robin Hood. It was all up in arms on how terrible it was, the DVD was better.....alouettes

Well I bought it because first I enjoy the movie and I wanted it in Blu-ray and second I will never believe a DVD is better then a Blu-ray and third my DVD I had for that movie was horrible. I can say that the BD of Robin Hood is far from being horrible, very far from it. Is it TDK or Iron Man? No I don't think it is but it's not 1 out of 5 either. Check the multiple threads of releases, always complain. Excellent PQ but someone somewhere manage's to raise heck cause the AQ is not as he want's it to be. The only way to make people happy would be to let them custom choose their Blu-ray purchases. Pick what type of audio settings you want, picture quality, where do you want the sub-titles, OAR....Otherwise no matter what is done someone somewhere will not be happy

Lame. Clearly it was to pick the "best" shots and not have reviewers pick the mediocre ones.

Maybe just a new poll-thread like this one,
not that the reviews are out, if people will buy it or not.
I bet it would be a lot more no's, maybe, unless people still insist on having it now.
But probably a lot less "maybes" anyway.
And this poll was more about, if they'd go for this one period, regardless of the quality.

I must say...coming home from work each day from WB...just kidding....but coming home from work, I have lots to read just in this thread alone. Its taking too much of my time away from other threads on this site. I need to refocus my attention elsewhere.

OVN being a lawyer might be able to shed light on the potential validity of their claimed reasons.

Well they own the media being used for the screen grabs and they supply the screeners used to make them so it stands to reason they could tell reviewers what they are and are not allowed to do with the screeners.
