Hi,
Wondered if anyone has seen review of Wall Street on Blu Ray and if this is worth purchasing for it being on Blu Ray. Is the quality worth it from a standard DVD?

I have the standard def DVD from 2000.

Thanks for the recommendations.

Here you go.

I love this film, but I have the recent DVD re-release, so I'll stick with that until the next Fox BOGO.

Eh I was going to get the new release on standard but held off for this....not too thrilled with the review. I also don't think it's worth the spring of $35. I'll do what bunk said, and wait for a bogo.

The video quality is ass. Very disappointed.

Thanks Hammer99 for the review, guess i'll hold off for it to appear in a deal or on ebay!

Kind of expected a better video translation to bluray.

Next buy then for me is going to be Michael Clayton


Great site though for all hi def dvd's

I'm waiting for it to be in a B1G1.

Yet another example of why it's foolish to rush out and replace every SD title with its latest HD release.

I'm keeping my DVD collection. I'll replace maybe the top 10% of my favorite films with their HD counterparts, when and if released, and then only if the respective studios have given the tranfers the proper care and consideration due them.

I'll pick it up on a B1G1.

I think people expect all films to look the same as if they were made today. And that is the major problem with peoples idea of what HD is.

Wall Street was never a bright colorful film with a bombastic soundmix,and it never will or should be. The look and sound of the film is intentional. And it sounds like people wish that was altered to suit how they feel all movies on HD 'should' look and sound.

I fully expected the quality not to be as great as todays movies, just would have been nice to find that the video was slightly enhanced.

I too would like at least some visual thats are enhanced and not asshanced. I would have liked to get ahold of this but not after the lackluster transfer it has received.

chanster

I don't agree with this statement at all. People upset with a mediocore transfer has nothing to due with the movie being "colorful" There are plenty of good HD transfers that are not bright nor colorful.

Hmmm... going on my Netflix queue, I guess (I've never seen it). At one point I had thought about blind-buying it.

Looks like Fox better hope for some retailers to have BOGO's if they're going to move some of these catalog titles!

Was just browsing yesterday in BB and they said Wall Street is only available online and wont be carried in stores.

A correct statement?

How about in your BB?

Thanks
JJ

mike2

Wow only online?? Hmm I'm going with Dane on this and throwing it in the Netflix Queue.

In the meantime, I'll stop by BB today and get conformation.

Mr. Cinema

Given the fact that the reviews are poor and this one costs $28 new, I would pass. I have the 2-disc set and will just be content with that.

Best Buy is terrible about carrying catalog titles, probably because no one buys them.

Mr. Cinema

Those $34.99 price stickers they put on Fox catalog titles doesn't help either.

mike2

Ya way overpriced.
