*The Bluray Quality Thread*

Reading the summary of District 9 it seems to be another tiresome "moral" film. I'm hoping there's more to it than that? Not gonna read the actual plot incase I watch it.

I may have missed it but to my knowledge no mention of the band of brothers on bluray?
i could imagine it being pretty damn sweet, havnt got a blu ray player yet so havnt botherd making the purchase though i have just finished my annual crimbo dvd rerun of the series.
 
Heroes season 1 and 2 are the best picture quality blu-ray i own, the others disappoint when i compared heroes to them.
 
If you want a Blu for picture quality definitely get I, Robot. The film isn't too bad either :P

Most if not all Disney Blu's are excellent quality too, especially the Narnia series.
 
Eastern Promises - 9.5/10 very high quality and a great film to boot. Only downside is that you have to watch a fully naked man wrestle in a shower in glorious HD :p
 
Well after checking out the IMAX scenes from The Dark Knight I have to say hands down those specific scenes have blown everything else I have come across out of the water, truly mind boggling.

I would LOVE to have a blue ray movie that is FULL Imax rather than in specific shots.

Has anyone picked up a bunch of blurays from the Gamestation clearance sale that has been going on? most of them at £3.98 & £4.98.

Bagged myself the following this week all brand new.

Predator £4.98
Transformers 2 Disc edition £4.98
Blow £3.98
Shoot em up £3.98
Terminator 3 £4.98
The Dark Knight £4.98
Resident Evil 3 £3.98
Resident Evil 2 £4.99 (Toys R Us sale)
Black Hawk Down £4.99 (Toys R Us sale)
Lucky Number Slevin £3.98
The Departed £3.98
The Rock £4.98
 
Band of Brothers does look good on Blu-ray, however they used to much DNR on it and that shows up when you compare it to the superior Japanese HD-DVD version.
 
"Inglourious ********" is reference quality.

"Punisher: War Zone" has an astoundingly weighty and effective sound track.

Getting "District 9" next week, but I've told it's astounding too.
 
Oh, how could I forget?

Top Gear: Polar Special - 8/10

Loses 2 points for the bits where a standard def camera is used and for the TG cameramen being a bit OTT with effects as per usual. :p

But there are some gorgeous shots.
 
Finally got a ps3 so I can enter in to the world of Blu Rays, I'm intent on getting Band of Brothers since it's so dirt cheap atm, District 9 will also be a must.

Can anyone tell me if Fight Club is worth getting? It's my all time favourite movie so I already have it on DVD but if the quality is much better then I will get that too :)

Got this today and not only was it one of the funniest and best (animated) films I've ever seen the quality of the film in BR was supoib! :eek::cool: Thanks Bart Simpson for that quote. :p I honestly think that 9/10 is too low a score for this film. I think the bidding has to start at 95%. :)
 
Hardware- A film i loved from many years ago and a superb transfer.
District 9- You wont be disappointed with the quality, as to the film half my family liked it, the other half hated it!! quite a marmite film imo.
Chronicles of Riddick - Another top transfer, the colours really shine through in this one.
Equilibrium - Loved this film but the transfer isn't much above dvd.
The Matrix trilogy - Not overly impressed, couldn't see much difference from dvd.
