Make sure you have an anamorphic version of Die Hard on standard def dvd - and play it upconverted in your hd-dvd player via your hdmi connection - and enjoy the movie - and the small fortune you saved by not paying any ransom money to Sony.

I think, I'll just buy the DVD version. My A2 does a good conversion as well.


Thanks.
this does need to be in the software forum to get any kind of valid info or etc.

Which part need to have valid info? Sorry, I got confused.
Might as well get DH4 on DVD, since blu is PG-13 only.


A Pg-13 Die Hard, don't seem right. Don't seem right atall



Probably won't be an import unless Finland or Russia make a HD version.


PS it not impossible, 15:10 lähtö Yumaan (3:10 to Yuma) was/is supposed to come to HD this year from Finland. Hadn't heard any more about it since December. Mr & Mrs Smith was available on HD from Poland and they weren't listed as distributor in IMDb

Having seen the "unrated" version of DH4, it ain't worth it. It seems very thrown together.

So you are saying that the PQ of 480i standard-def is just as good as high-def? Well if thats the case then why do you even support HD DVD?

Thats funny because thats the version that was originally filmed. It was the PG-13 version that was "thrown together" at the last minute to make more money.

In all honestly they both seem to be thrown together with some of the worse out of sync dialog I've ever seen.

3:10 to Yuma HD version has disappeared from the future releases list as have all the other HD DVD releases by that distributor (FS-Film). Unfortunately.

Die Hard 4 was a disaster. They even swiped True Lies' ending with the kidnapped daughter and a highly over the top encounter with a fighter plane!


And yes, the dialog was looped poorly either way. Many of the cuss words were said off camera or during fast action sequences too, so who knows what the intended rating was.


For me the Die Hard franchise ended at 3.


Get a Blu-ray player. They aren't that expensive anymore.
I enjoyed the last one for the usual mindlessness and I did manage to get the first three from Amazon for 30 bucks total. I buy the occasional import hd-dvd to avoid a combo. I can't understand why folks go out of there way to buy an hddvd version when the blu can be had for a fraction of the price. And importing something like FFROTSS is just mind bogling..... But to each there own
