Monsters University 2D and 3D - November 25th, 2013 - Page 4 - Blu-ray Forum

But we should not have to mess with the audio output for it to play correctly.

Travers400 · 11-11-2013, 08:40 PM

I know. I've had a few films over the past couple of months with problems. (Dredd, Hugo, Total Recall, Monsters Uni)

Daytrader · 11-11-2013, 08:42 PM

Are the problems only through hdmi, is optical ok ?

The 3D was fantastic, you can't go wrong with Pixar films in 3D.

Sorry to hear that. The latest Sony firmware I downloaded seems to have cured this problem as the original Monsters Inc 3D was unwatchable with the 7.1 TrueHD soundtrack on due to audio drop-outs, but now it plays fine.

Thx, glad the 3D was good, cheers

So has anyone received their Sainsburys exclusive in the post yet? as I thought the email they sent last week informing us of the delay said orders would be upgraded to Royal Mail First Class and 99% of the time First Class for me is next day but starting to wonder if they sent them via their normal TNT route or just 2nd class.

Me neither - I reckon it's cos they posted them quite late yesterday? If they're using TNT again I'll be annoyed - several of my Sainsbury's orders have not shown up, and I have to wait 2 weeks until I can claim it as lost in the post. Happened with The Incredibles, which was dispatched over a week ago now and still hasn't arrived! Sainsbury's don't seem to reply to me when I criticise their choice of logistics.

NoFro · 11-13-2013, 04:42 PM

Received my Sainsbury's special edition. Glad that the extra disc is a blu ray and not a DVD. Also loving the alternate artwork. It's much better than the standard artwork IMO (which I didn't like at all).

88thCrazy · 11-13-2013, 04:47 PM

Got mine today too, looking forward to watching - missed it in the cinemas.

Phil92 · 11-13-2013, 05:27 PM

I have the 3D US set going for sale if anyone's interested. PM me.

mattyl149 · 11-13-2013, 08:40 PM

I've just noticed that somehow I've ended up with two copies being despatched from Sainsburys of their exclusive release when I only ordered one

I checked my e-mails and the order went through for two. I don't know how that happened so I'm going to have to send one back

88thCrazy · 11-14-2013, 11:56 AM

I watched this last night - I didn't really have super high expectations for it after the mixed response it got during its cinema run, but I really enjoyed it. Yes, it felt like a direct-to-DVD prequel of 00's Disney, but I think its a welcome addition to the Pixar films.

[Show spoiler]

Not got round to watching the bonus disc yet, but it's nice to know I have a more comprehensive package thanks to Sainsbury's.

I kept thinking the bonus disc was a DVD as they are usually with Sainsbury's, so when I received my copy today, I was glad to see the bonus disc was a Blu-ray

I haven't tried optical yet.

Shame they haven't done a comboe pack of the first and second movies in 3D. I've never seen the first or this one, but only want them in 3D.

I think you're in the minority. If people really want Monsters Inc, I think they would have it already. Of course, they have made combos for less, so
