Cool

Is the maximum movie mode as cool as the one for watchmen?

ThriceBB · 12-07-2009, 12:26 AM

how are the movies getting packaged in the year 1-6 giftset? will they be individual inside? i have the years 1-5 set and i hate the packaging. i want to try to get rid of it and buy the new one if the packaging is different.

I haven't watched either of the maximum movie modes so I can't say. There is one deleted scene though that is absolutly spectacular (the choir one).

I just finished reading the book so now Im a litttle more excited for this release even though I already saw the film. I feel like Im going to understand it better.

When did you order yours?

I've had mine ordered with prime for a while, it shipped on Friday and finally the UPS tracking# has been updated and it's showing a delivery of the 8th.

I've also been having a LOT of my UPS ordered being delivered one day sooner than the original est. delivery date... so I've got my fingers crossed that I'll have a package on my doorstep when I get home tonight

They still haven't gotten the screener yet, don't worry one of the reviewers already said he'll go get it himself tomorrow if necessary.

I have Prime also and mine just arrived on my doorstep about 15 minutes ago.

... it had a delivery estimate of tomorrow's date though, so maybe you'll get it sooner?

Oh my mistake. That's actually how I think digital copies should be done anyway, putting that sucker on a disc is just a waste IMO.

Syrus614 · 12-07-2009, 06:03 PM

Thanks I signed up for the BD-Live event too. Also I ordered mine with prime a couple weeks ago ( along with the 2 ultimate ed.) and up until this morning it had not shipped. Amazon had a delivery estimate of december 10th, but it shipped out early today and now says it will be here tomorrow

redboxcar · 12-07-2009, 06:08 PM

Pictures for inquiring minds...

Sorry about the poor quality, that's my iPhone.

Cisco in HD · 12-07-2009, 06:11 PM

I signed up for the prime trial, got the email this morning from amazon that it's been shipped. Coming in from KY, and I'm in south fla, any chance I can get it tomorrow? Or should I expect it on Wednesday?

bookcase · 12-07-2009, 06:14 PM

I'm sorry if this has already been answered, but is the sneak peak of the next Harry Potter on the Blu-ray itself, or only accessible via BD-Live. I hope it's like Batman Begin's preview of Dark Knight.

I've watched the Australian version.

The picture quality is very similar to the theatrical experience. Black levels were strong, yet there didn't appear to be significant crushing. Because of the desaturated nature of the presentation colors don't pop off the screen, however that is in keeping with the theatrical experience. The only issue I found was that some aliasing appeared in some of the highly textured clothing, most notably Narcissa Malfoy. Some may say that the image doesn't appear dynamic and that blacks don't approach pure black in most scenes, but that was as intended.

The audio is equally strong with a well-rendered Dolby TrueHD track.
