Best quality blu ray releasing studio? - Page 2 - Blu-ray Forum

Blue Underground...

You really have to appreciate their films though.

Marcus Wright · 05-30-2010, 02:35 PM

Ok, polling is up now.

KubrickFan · 05-30-2010, 03:32 PM

I voted for Criterion, since it's the most consistent in both releasing good quality movies and BDs. Most of the other studios either have screwed up on several titles, or release movies that don't interest me as much.

Iron-Blu-123 · 05-30-2010, 03:51 PM

Disney/Buena Vista

I went with Sony. I can't remember how many times I've read the phrase, "another great release from Sony" in this site's reviews.

Yeah, that is actually what I have been reading often recently as well.

Marcus Wright · 05-30-2010, 06:45 PM

Warner Brothers for me.
I like also Disney, Criterion, Fox, Paramaunt.

Knapsack · 05-30-2010, 07:14 PM

Masters of Cinema should be an option. Their quantity is low, but their quality is through the roof. I would have to choose Criterion over MoC, however, simply due to the amount of titles Criterion has released. Of course the quality of Criterion's releases goes without saying.

I'll have to second Rob71's choice of Blue Underground, as well. They're doing a great job with their video transfers... their cover art and menu design, however, is a different story.

bpmford · 05-30-2010, 11:14 PM

I say that I like Fox the best, but I am biased... I haven't seen any of Criterion's releases yet...

I also think disney is an easy one to pic with all their animated releases!

Teazle · 05-31-2010, 04:44 PM

There's no option for Blue Underground! My #1, photo finish, beat Criterion by a nose.

OneWayFilms · 05-31-2010, 05:30 PM

My vot eis for DISNEY & NEW LINE

Dragon Lee · 05-31-2010, 07:18 PM

for the money, I say Paramount makes the best blurays. their back catalog titles look the best.

Freekman · 05-31-2010, 07:52 PM

Paramount. Between Iron Man and Star Trek, you don't get much better, IMO.

bpmford · 05-31-2010, 07:55 PM

Definitely... with their Saphire Series they have done awesome! With the exception of Gladiator, the releases have blown me away!!!

Disney has the best picture quality, I'd say.
However, I find Lionsgate to be the best audio quality, since it's one of the only studios to release most of their stuff with a 7.1 DTS-HD track and 9/10 times, their stuff is very clear and aggressive. (I'm talking about their newer stuff, not their first releases like the first SAW or The Punisher 1)

Chiyo_chichi · 05-31-2010, 10:16 PM

I don't think I've every been disappointed by a Disney bluray.

Petra_Kalbrain · 05-31-2010, 10:36 PM

Lionsgate gets my vote here. They just nudge Disney/Dreamworks out of top spot.

Lionsgate always offers high quality presentation in everything from the menu designs right through to the audio quality. They have the edge in that they are more apt in future proofing their releases with 7.1 DTS-HD MA audio tracks.

jk1138 · 05-31-2010, 10:39 PM

I would say Disney and HBO, as far as I am concerned there has been no better BD than Band of Brother.
