I refuse to buy their release of one of my favorite films, Near Dark, because it's such a horrid disc.

i don't know which movie guys see but i help and name a few

TOP NOTCH PQ and AQ
3 10 to Yuma
T 2
War/ amazing audio
Brothers
Rambo
Crank
Lord of War
on and on and on. Just search their titles on this site.

They are more constant than another studio, and in addition they typically have more 7.1 audio tracks.

Most of the ones you mentioned are newer movies that were digitally mastered to begin with. They already look good.
The one older movie you mention, Terminator 2, isn't even good, let alone top notch

Are you on drugs????? T-2 was made in 91, that movie looks and sounds great. THX certified as well.

Still waiting for Aronofsky's "Pi", which was announced as 'coming soon' at CES 2007. They did a great job with "Requiem for a Dream"!

which means.....

T2 was my very unimpressive introduction to the blu-ray format, and it's about the last disc I'd ever use to show someone what blu-ray is all about.

I own a few of their titles (Reservoir Dogs, 3:10 to Yuma, etc) and think they are pretty good overall in PQ and AQ. However, some titles I would like to see is a remastered version of The Punisher (Thomas Jane version) and would prefer it to be the extended cut. Overall though, despite having a few titles that aren't great with PQ, I agree with the OP that for such a small company, their blus are pretty good.

I think quality varies as with all films.The thing I love about Lionsgate is the DTS-MA intro.It sounds amazing and has scared a few people in my theater.They are the only studio who shows this before the movie.Just as cool as the THX trailer if you ask me.
