I haven't done Clockwork yet, but 2001 and The Shining are both incredible on Blu.

Great film, have it on DVD. I was going to buy it last weekend but I saw a bunch of Paramount titles so I waited.

I know there is some controversy about changing the aspect ratio of the film but overall you can tell that a lot of love went into the transfer of these Kubrick titles to BD.

3 months later....i just watched this movie and it was pretty good, but..anything not directly in the center was all wavy and stretched out like when you put you tv on widescreen on a 4:3 source...i have used the widescreen feature before and it gives you a headache so watching this movie while already having a mad headache didnt help lol...i dont know what aspect ratio this was shot in and if they stretched it out or not but unless they shot this movie using a periscope im not impressed..

i also watched the a couple scenes from the deluxe version of full metal jacket...and i dont remember the first version having (although i havent watched it in a couple months) smudged looking faces..i personally like the old version even with grain..

and to those who have seen polar express on blu ray( i only watched a couple scenes and then turned it off because of a ghosting looking video) aclockwork orange reminded me of that movie or was it deluxe fmj? well im not 100% sure what movie it was (90% sure it was a clockwork orange)because i forgot from having a mad headache lol...my question is does anyone agree?

That's probably some wideangle lens distortion from the lens Kubrick used. If you watch at 2PH (like in the Cinema) you will be immersed in it and notice it less.
