"The Dark Knight" Blu-ray (Dec. 9th)
#676
Watched it on BD last night on a 50" plasma, and I just don't get the issues some people are having with the transfer. Looked gorgeous to these eyes...
And the shifting aspect ratios - which sounds problematic - was barely noticeable, and that was probably because I consciously looking for it.

I found that the movie looked fantastic, both times since i've brought it home, had literally no gripes at all in it's presentation. Watched it on my 50" Samsung through a PS3.

At 106 inches edge enhancement looks terrible regardless of the title. I'll watch the movie over later tonight on a smaller set and see what I think.

I can wholeheartedly agree with that, however, in not seeing any flaws in the presentation, I also do not see any EE either.

Watched it again on my 30" Sony HDTV and I saw the edge enhancements and some parts looked really soft. Also, some parts looked pretty dark.
Both used PS3 through HDMI. I'm confused.

Now, I'm not saying this transfer is one of the worst. It surely has it's moments, but I'm not going to clean my shorts because the IMAX footage is fantastic. I expected it too. I'm talking about the 80% of the flick shot in 35mm.

I went in telling myself that I wasn't going to give a shit. I figured it the internet talk was just hyperbole. The fact that it came from AVS didn't help that fact in the least. But by the time it got to the "pencil trick" I was having flashbacks to Gangs of NY. Which to this day is one of the worst transfers I've seen on Blu. or HD-DVD for that matter.

Like I said, everyone's experience must be different, technology-related or otherwise.

Damn, wish I had my memory card in my player now... Slots will probably be filled by the time I get it.

I wanted to add that I received my invitation and have already RSVP'd for the Live event.
100,000 spots doesn't seem like a lot; I was surprised that I was accepted. I guess it's nice to be among the early adopters.

I have to confess that I laugh at the Bat voice!
