What Dreams May Come.

[bykes]

Id like to see this on Blu-ray.....

Good Movie with Robin Williams and Cuba Gooding Jr.

Agreed. It's a sappy movie but creative in it's sappiness. This would look fantastic in blu. Almost bought an HD-DVD Player when it was going firesale so I can pick up movies like this.

One of my most-watched HDDVDs. Special effects are a real mixed bag, with some looking incredible even by today's standards, and some looking absolutely terrible (the very obvious blue-screen shots in 'Hell')

Plot is the weak point, but it could certainly be a lot worse.

Lossy audio track is nothing special, so don't expect to hear anything amazing in DTSHD-MA (actually, on the audio front, I must say one of the very favourite soundtracks is 'Planet Earth,' which is only DD+ 448kbps but packs in some excellent and very convincing surround sound effects)

by the way,

does any of you know where the title "what dreams may come"
has been taken from?

...he he he...

I'll give you a hint:
Another movie involving a very famous starship captain
and his crew on their last mission was referring to the
same source!

ok, that's to easy now....

Maybe this wasn't as entertaining as I expected it to be
Nevertheless... the solution is:
Both movie titles derive from Shakespeare's "Hamlet",
namely Hamlet's monologue or soliloquy:

* * * * * * * * * * *

To be, or not to be--that is the question:
Whether 'tis nobler in the mind to suffer
The slings and arrows of outrageous fortune
Or to take arms against a sea of troubles
And by opposing end them. To die, to sleep--
No more--and by a sleep to say we end
The heartache, and the thousand natural shocks
That flesh is heir to. 'Tis a consummation
Devoutly to be wished. To die, to sleep--
To sleep--perchance to dream: ay, there's the rub,
For in that sleep of death what dreams may come
When we have shuffled off this mortal coil,
Must give us pause. There's the respect
That makes calamity of so long life.
For who would bear the whips and scorns of time,
Th' oppressor's wrong, the proud man's contumely
The pangs of despised love, the law's delay,
The insolence of office, and the spurns
That patient merit of th' unworthy takes,
When he himself might his quietus make
With a bare bodkin? Who would fardels bear,
To grunt and sweat under a weary life,
But that the dread of something after death,
The undiscovered country (Star Trek 6) , from whose bourn
No traveller returns, puzzles the will,
And makes us rather bear those ills we have
Than fly to others that we know not of?
Thus conscience does make cowards of us all,
And thus the native hue of resolution
Is sicklied o'er with the pale cast of thought,
And enterprise of great pitch and moment
With this regard their currents turn awry
And lose the name of action. -- Soft you now,
The fair Ophelia! -- Nymph, in thy orisons
Be all my sins remembered.

This is actually one of my favorite movies,This movie is a gem and a lot of people haven't seen it.I can see it coming to blu-ray But not for a long time

It's a little too metaphysical for me sometimes. But sometimes I like it. Besides, the look of the film would make it a visual feast on BD.
