I loved this documentary!
I guess when the inevitable day comes that I add Blu-ray to the stable this will have to be one of my discs.

Actually out of all the HD-DVD fanboys, you and Midnight Watcher are my favorites to read. You should get a PS3 and get in with us now murch. I think you could add a lot of positive talk to our discussions over here owning Blu-ray firsthand.

If it's any consolation I am hoping your Sea Hawks pull it out this weekend. Grossman looks terrible.

Sometimes I ask myself why I'm so doggone stubborn about this battle. I guess it's just the thrill of competition.
HD DVD has a year to make stuff happen. In 2008 I won't deprive myself of any movies. Both formats are certainly making each other better. The improvement in quality hardware and software is happening at such a pace I can't fault any of you for wanting to overdose on this stuff.

Yeah, I hear ya, I am the same way, just the other side of the isle. Tonight my wife and I just watched "The Transporter" and it was a very fun movie. From the list of upcoming Blu-ray releases there have to be a number of those movies you want to see in HD? I say why wait, enjoy them now. I have an HD-A1 for exclusive Universal titles I can't wait to see on Blu-ray.
Think of it this way, if you get a PS3 for your Blu-ray viewings you could always sell it at a decent price if you decide you do not want Blu-ray. Why? Because it is a gaming console, so there will always be a market for it. Look at the PS2, it is still the top selling console, even beating the Xbox 360 and the Wii.
I just do not think you should deprive yourself of the awesome HD that is currently out there and the new HD which is just around the corner.

I watched this film awhile back on DVD and they recently showed in on Discovery HD channel.
I'm sure it will look fantastic on BlueRay/ HD (whichever format it's released on)
It gets a little boring to watch as its the same story over and over with different birds. The close ups in flight are really cool.
Certainly a worthy own to show off a player and HD TV

Here we go. Musical release dates. This title has been on again, off again, and now it's on again- set for this week's release- Jan 16. If only Crouching Tiger was put back...
In any event, I preordered this a few months back with Amazon Prime, so if it is indeed coming out this week I should have it by Thurs.

I think this is by Sony Classical, I think, which is basically SPE. They may have this in the can long ago and probably worried that the print they got is not clean enough. But then it is a documentary.

I think it's much, much more than just a documentary. And it deserves a pristine and highest quality transfer.

Well, I have DVR'ed the version that ran on DISC-HD a few weeks ago, so if it shows up this week we'll see how much better it is.
In any event this will be 1080p/5.1 (and probably lossless) and the transfer on DISC-HD was 1080i/2.0. Unfortunately I only have a 720p TV, but even then I can see the difference over broadcast, especially on a good BD transfer.

The DVD release of this title wasn't reference video quality, so I'm not expecting to be blown away with the HD release. Great title though...
