all you dimbulbs care about is keeping disney executives in their comfy jobs! they shuld not censor theyre movies by not having them be 1080p! we r the ones bying the movies and they shuld nt be censored in anyway!

and if the pakcage is an error, then they r censoring pakcaging! and that is not the america way! if it is error.

Because you know, this is the first typo on a mass media product ever in the history of time. Also, irony!

You mean:
Ha! (or possibly, "Hi.") I'll let all the Disney cheerleaders have fun rationalizing this.

And if it is actually an error, that just shows how pathetic they are by making such a blatant, sore thumb error as that. If it really is an error.
Physician, heal thyself.

http://bluray.highdefdigest.com/news..._Blu-ray_/1226

Specifically, the packaging for 'At World's End' indicates a 1080i/MPEG-4 encode for the main feature -- this, despite the fact that the high-profile release had been announced as sporting a full 1080p transfer. (Although 1080i is not unusual when it comes to supplemental material, true 1080p is standard for encoding of the main feature itself among major studio releases. Indeed, all of Disney's previous Blu-ray releases have featured full 1080p video.)

So what gives? We here at High-Def Digest received our own final copy of 'At World's End' last week from Disney, and after putting it through its paces on multiple players, we found the encode of the feature film to be true 1080p, contradicting the packaging.

We've since contacted Disney about the apparent labeling snafu, and a rep confirmed that copies of the release were indeed incorrectly marked as 1080i. At press time, the studio was not planning a recall of the mislabeled copies of 'At World's End,' but said that the error would be corrected on future pressings of the title.
THIS IS OUTRAGE WE DEMAND MONEY RETURNED! DISNEY IS EVIL THEY ONLY WANT MONEY!

First off welcome crmlht00 -wave- Unfortunately we don't always give newbies the most warm welcome but stick around for awhile and I'm sure we'll grow on you... provided you stick to a couple of rules

1) This is in the wrong forum. If you look at the forum list there is one specifically for HD hardware and movies. This should have gone there.

2) I don't know if there is a thread about this in there, but I know there is a thread about Pirates3 in the main forum. So had this been the right forum for this message it should have been added to the existing thread instead of creating a new thread for it. This keeps all the info about a specific DVD in one thread instead of people having to try and remember which post was in which thread.

3) If you are posting a complaint, issue, or even a compliment sometimes, link to proof is usually desired. This helps cut down on the amount of rumor mongering that goes on.

4) I'm not sure what your post read originally but "challenging" people in the manner you did is usually frowned upon. Different people have different POVs so calling people out is not usually the best way to begin a thread. This helps cut down on the number of flame wars we have we.

Thanks, welcome again though
