Smallville Season 6 - Pre-release buzz!! - Blu-ray Forum

XanderAE · 07-31-2007, 10:35 AM

Thought there should be one place where everyone who's psyched about this release can come and express their thoughts and opinions (and excitement!)

Personally for me, this is the biggest release on Blu-ray so far! Season 5 would have been... had it actually been released on Blu!

So message away people, discuss, discuss.

I'm really interested in what you all think of the news of having 1 disc less than HD DVD and reasons why we get 4 discs when the content could fit on 3 (according to HD DVD space limits). I personally am hoping for better encodes... far fetched wish mabe? Also interested on your thoughts on possible episode denominations on the discs... maybe 6, 6, 5, 5?

Everything and anything Smallville welcome, that includes speaking up about wanting seasons 1-5 on Blu lol!

7 weeks today... 49 days...

I proeordered it a week or two ago. Cant wait.

Big Smallville fan here, but the only past season I would really care for on BD is Season 5. I cant explain why I really wouldnt care for the earlier stuff, but oh well.

i downloaded the first 5 episodes on torrentz... i can't wait to see it on HD... they need to re-release the first 5 on blu, it's a shame i'd have to rebuy, but i'm willing to do so... smallville FTW!

Saw a few episodes. Not a fan of it. Not sure why the show took off though.

Because other people ARE fans of it?

Smallville Season 6 is the first TV show I'm really looking forward to on Blu-ray. I had two other 24 Season 1 & Stargate Atlantis Season 1 but Fox disappear taking MGM with them. Maybe we'll hear something soon.

I would buy Season 1-5 of Smallville if they would come on Blu-ray. I'm still a little mad that Season 5 is on HD-DVD and not on Blu-ray.

For me Season 5&6 are the best season so far.

hmmm, maybe because it's SUPERMAN???

Transcoded the Season 6 HighDef broadcast MKV files in 720p x264 into mp4 files to play on the PS3.... They look great, but I would definately have to buy the BD set.

While 720p looks fine on my 60" 1080i set, I eventually will get a 1080p set, and will be fully able to take advantage of the extra resolution.

Blu Tiger · 07-31-2007, 02:42 PM

Since I've never really watched this show, the only way I would buy it is if they released Season 1.

my biggest concern of it not coming on bluray, like season 5. WB promised to release season 5 and they didn't. was there any statements done by them regarding that matter anyone knows why it wasn't released?

Blu · 09-06-2007, 06:01 PM

I will be purchasing Smallville Season 6 on Blu-Ray on the 18th and I'm looking forward to Seasons 1-5 on Blu in the future.

BTW.....this is from February 14, 2007 from spoilerfix.com

02/14 - Michael Rosenbaum reveals: I think next season will definitely happen. [...] Next year will be my last year. I had a great run. I loved it, but that will be it for me. I think other people have longer contracts. I’m not going to say who, but I know that next year is the last for me. So, it will be very sad when it happens, but all good things must come to an end.

He is referring to Season 7 as his last but mentions other cast members are signed on for Season 8.

u_nick · 09-06-2007, 06:03 PM

I'm pretty sure its been recently announced that Welling is signed for an 8th, should they decide to go forward with one. So you never know...

IamNhobdy · 09-06-2007, 06:24 PM

My local Best Buy (US1 south of Oakland in Ft.Lauderdale FL) has been releasing new titles on the previous Thursday(last Sunday I got Delta Farce...iknow it sux...and I just bought the replacement killers today, they also had nip tuck, which I don't care about). I will check on this coming Thursday for SmallVille S6 and if it's there I'll post some pics to settle any questions we have about it actually coming out(refference to season5). I'll have to wait till Tuesday to buy it though, because of this buy athon I said I'd be a part of. Maybe my friends friend can hide one for me to make sure it's still there when I go to get it!

XanderAE · 09-15-2007, 12:53 PM

Urgh, I won't be getting mine on the release date now then!!

Something about Warner and failing to get them to retailers on time!

Takes 5 days for things to get to me by post, and it hasnt shipped yet, so no Clarky-boy for me til end of next week at the earliest!
