Default Disappointing blu ray sony!!

Still disappointed went back to look at 3d trailer on the underworld awakening 3d blu ray and it was much more vivid and looked much better in the open matte format. I want a rerelease!! Add back that cut pov footage also!!

The blu-ray perfectly represents what I saw in theaters. You're asking for a rerelease that looks like a trailer that probably had boosted contrast or brightness. The movie is dim. And it doesn't loose any clarity or sharpness because of it, hence the perfect score.

Did you see my screen captures a few pages back? It is indeed dim, but I didn't even notice until after I had watched the movie and took the captures.

Yes, I posted that comparison as well. Mine looked slightly darker than the review's. I am thinking someone used screen captures from the 3D disc instead of the 2D disc since they are generally brighter to combat the brightness lost from looking through the glasses.

It doesn't always happen. Sometimes it goes back up and stays up for quite a while until it eventually drops in price completely/permanently. It's too much of a guessing game these days.

That batch of screenshots the other guy posted highlights a problem I hadn't realized this movie suffers from: annoying yellow and blue filters. Why must Hollywood attempt to strip all natural colors from the world?

I love the movie anyway, but what an annoying trend that is.

Because it looks how it's supposed to look?

The screencaps posted here look darker than it does on my system. Looks great to me.

[Show spoiler]So when Peter and May hug toward the end of the movie, the unspoken moment and look she gives him pretty much means she knows he's Spiderman, right ?

It was a confirmation thing. I'll think before I go and waste valuable seconds asking questions about a movie.
