What Blu-ray has the best picture in YOUR OPINION? - Page 2 - Blu-ray Forum

Romulus · 05-25-2008, 09:25 PM

While I absolutely love the movie Sunshine, I would say that the top picture quality out of my collection would belong to one of the following: Apocalypto, I, Robot, No Country For Old Men, Pan's Labyrinth or Harry Potter and The Order of the Phoenix.

Sunshine is pretty damn close.

I think The Orphanage has the best picture, and it's a great movie to boot.

theprophecy247 · 05-25-2008, 09:54 PM

I, Robot and I am Legend

That's your opinion. But I had a tough choice choosing. It's hard to argue with Cars or Ratatouille. Spiderman 1, 2, and 3 look great for a live-action movie. All the Pirates as well and I, Robot seems to be the consensus pick, and for good reason. But for me, I am Legend has such a clean, crisp look to it. I don't particularly like the movie all that much, but found myself sitting in awe of the presentation. Coincidentally, I think it has one of the, if not the best aq as well. Definitely tops in terms of TrueHD.

I just recently rewatched "30 Days Of Night" and thought it looked excellent. Audio was excellent as well.

joshie · 05-25-2008, 10:39 PM

I chose I Robot but Saawiriya was very good. I really dont hear much about The Legend of Zorro PQ but I think it really is top tier.

Agreed. That would have been a good choice as well. It also has one of the best explosions I've ever seen on BD.

bigpapy · 05-25-2008, 11:11 PM

The Island perfect PQ but poor SQ

Petra_Kalbrain · 05-25-2008, 11:23 PM

'3:10 To Yuma' blew my mind for live-action footage. That's where my vote went because live-action films are what most people want to know about.

'Cars' is still the best overall for PQ, but it is animated and therefore is in a league of its own. It's not fair to pit digital animation against live-action film.

wnicholas76 · 05-25-2008, 11:35 PM

I voted other. To me, Blade Runner has the best picture by far!

Marcusarilius · 05-25-2008, 11:41 PM

Voted for I Robot. There are so many though and I don't compair CGI cartoons with real lfe movies either. A seperate catagory as they are 100% digital in the first place with no grain or other artifacts.

Underworld, The fifth element are a couple reference disks.

MosHighDef · 05-26-2008, 02:27 AM

Apocalypto

No Country for Old Men

I Robot

Galapagos

The Lion King · 05-26-2008, 02:30 AM

I used to think Resident Evil: Apocalypse looked the best, for having a nice almost gothic colour scheme and just nice visuals in general, but that was until I rewatched Harry Potter and the Prizoner of Azkaban. Easily the best PQ out of the BDs I've seen and own.

silversnake · 05-26-2008, 04:27 AM

just saw sunshine...

Gorgeous. Good movie as well

NMErickson · 05-26-2008, 05:23 AM

I voted for the Pirates movies. National Treasure 2 was pretty astounding too. I dont see what the big deal is with I Am Legend. I was not impressed and not just because I also disliked the movie. But looks like I'll have to check out Will Smith's other movie, I Robot. Seems to be the winner here. I like polls like these because I cant buy/rent every Blu out there, just not enough time in my life w/ everything else, but this helps to find some great visual experiences with Blu. Thanks!!

Also, I found The Fifth Element (remastered) to be one of the best also. Anyone else think so?

absolutely. Fifth element is gorgeous

spotnick · 05-26-2008, 06:21 AM

I've never seen I, Robot and I voted other because I still can't get over Rescue Dawn.

I thought it was a fantastic film, and it looked and sounded great to me too.

I think I got it for free too since Fry's charge to me never went through despite my bank acct. having more than enough money. It just kinda disappeared, and this was almost a month ago.

highdefw · 05-26-2008, 07:07 AM

The POTC movies look and sound the best to me. Then again, I didn't I, Robot, which I heard was mastered very well.
