Yeah, this Friday will be two weeks since it has been shipped. I'm not in any huge rush but it's starting to get too long for my taste.

Waiting can suck. I have store credit to use at DVD Planet and have had them screw up 3 or my last 4 orders. One took 8 weeks to finally ship and get to me, the next one took 6 weeks to ship, they got the third one right and my most recent order for Green for Danger is still waiting as they are out of stock even though I preordered weeks in advance.

DVD Planet flat out sucks.

Well, that's pretty unfortunate so I understand your concern. I can't recall ever having a lost shipment. In some places theft from the mail is a problem, something that never occurs in my rural area.

I haven't had any lost shipments, but on two orders last year a disc was missing (the invoice had two titles, but there was just one in the envelope). It was from two different retailers, and in each case thankfully they shipped "another" copy of each missing title. It took a while with one of them though, as it was backordered when they processed the claim.

Well, we constantly get mail for our neighbors and sometimes they return mail that belongs to us. Maybe somebody is getting and keeping my discs.

Our local post office sucks. We've complained several times and they just tell us to get a PO box.

Bump.

Just watched the BD release of this for the second time and the PQ is truly awful. The skin color on everyone looks red or orange in almost every scene. I've seen this in HD on HBO and it didn't look anywhere near this bad. In fact, it was 10 times better. Another great job WB. You suck.

Re: Warner goes PCM for Blu-Ray: The Departed
 

I remember the redish (though it's not extreme by any means) skin tones on the HD DVD as well (though it's been a while since I last watched it) and always assumed it was a stylistic choice of the director. :shrug:

Uh, yeah. I vaguely remember seeing that in the theater as well.

but I was probably high, so who knows.

So, why the hell does this have less extras than the dvd?

Re: Warner goes PCM for Blu-Ray: The Departed
 

Sorry to bump an old thread, but I just picked up the "Awards Edition" of The Departed (the one with the awful slipcover that has a smaller image of the original BD cover art).

Can anyone tell me if the actual cover on the case underneath is the original BD cover art?

99% sure that it is.
