Spider-Man Trilogy Question

[WickyWoo]

I just purchased the SM Trilogy and am watching the first installment as I am writing this, and I must say I am not impressed. Are my eyes playing tricks on me or is PQ not that great on SM1? Thanks...

Spidey 1 will never look that great, it's simply how it was shot.

Raimi likes that kind of look on his films

Well right off the bat... Blade Runner almost made me do a sex wee... 10 years ago i could never have imagined my favourite film of all time could look sooooooo good

Pirates Trilogy all looked amazing, as does Casino Royale

other notables are: Close Encounters, 300, De Ja Vue,

(i'm trying to do this from memory as i'm in a different room to where they are, but...)

Prestige, Stealth, Layer Cake... even The Island (which other people on here critised for artifacts)

All left me with a far greater smile on my face than Spiderman Trilogy

I have more, but my memory fails me at this time

I guess my main point is, i already had the SM Trio on DVD, had seen them upscaled... and was disappointed that having spent decent money buying them on Blu, there was very little difference

I suggest you look at things like backgrounds and you'll see a lot of difference

Actually, i wondered whether something this was the case... the films all seem to have been shot in poor light levels

Which goes back to my original post of them looking not very colourful

Nothing wrong with any of the movies you've mentioned except I'd say some of them are equal to the SM trilogy in PQ.

The Pirates trilogy PQ makes Spider-trilogy PQ look like hddvd!

Grainy? You want to talk about grainy? How about 300? Even though its an awesome movie, and it looks good in Blu-ray, I still noticed grain every now and then. Now, was this supposed to look like this?
