HD War is over. Disney wins - Page 2

I'm sure the stars love all of those close-ups in hi deff! Every little imperfection for all to see. Good thing they can digitally enhance things away if they want to.

In POTC 3 I could see every little pore in Jhonny Depps nose! It was rather gross, really.

Not to mention how obvious it will be that those 10” beauties aren’t real.

Ironic, since - just as with Betamax vs. VHS - the inferior high def format looks to have won.

I've never heard anyone claim that one was actually inferior to the other, just that they're different formats. How is it inferior?

OUCH!

I don't care WHO won. I'm not spending $400+ on a BlueRay player.

I bet the HD DVD players will come down in price

It's a good thing then that they're down to $250 now.

Next time you're over I'll demo Ratatouille in Bluray for you and you can tell me whatcha think

I just found out Ratatouille was digitally transferred direct to DVD, making for one helluva picture. Animation has always benefited most by picture clarity improvements, so I can only imagine how frelling cool the Blu Ray image looks. Yowza.

Cars was one of the first Blu Ray's where I really noticed a difference over the DVD version. The gold flecks in Lightning's paint job really pop. Other movies, like the Potter's, show less of a difference.
