What are your dream Bluray Features?
 

If you could have any making of video, interactive ability, or other content/feature, what would it be?

Re: What are your dream Bluray Features?
 

A hole where I can stick my dis<s>k</s>c into.

Ok, really, the best PQ/AQ possible. Toss the extras onto a separate disc or exclude them altogether...if the PQ/AQ are perfect I'll be happy.

Re: What are your dream Bluray Features?
 

Original theatrical trailers on EVERY fucking disc.

I would like a complete cast & crew list that links up to IMDb. It would be nice to know where I've seen that person before. It would be very cool if you could click on a person in a movie to look them up rather than trying to find them in a list of people. That's very much on the "dream" side, but it would be cool.

Wow...umm, go buy Wolverine cause Fox just added that feature. Sony is adding it also when they launch Angels and Demons.

Re: What are your dream Bluray Features?
 

The Best PQ & AQ. All the rest is way down the list.

Re: What are your dream Bluray Features?
 

There are too many great movies not released yet to really care about features. In general, the only features I am interested in are when movies are based on a historical event, a documentary about that actual event and which parts are historical and which parts are Hollywood. Braveheart is a prime example; some great information about William Wallace with an actual time line and a writers time line for comparison.

In looking over my most wanted list:

Big Red 1 - documentary on the group in WWII

Bugsy - documentary on Bugsy and/or Vegas

DieHard4 - just give me the (R) rated version

Gettysburg - documentary on Gettysburg

Memphis Belle - documentary on the flying fortresses of WWII

Midway- documentary on Midway

Pearl Harbor - R rated version. Documentary on Pearl Harbor

Saving Private Ryan- Documentary on D-Day and the siblings that were killed

Tora, Tora, Tora - Documentary on Pearl Harbor

With any of these movies I would much rather have a bare bones disc now than wait for a multi-disc SE with tons of crap I'd watch maybe once then forget. I really don't care about extras, they are generally a waste of space.

That feature was talked about as a possibility when DVD was first announced. It would be extremely useful.

Re: What are your dream Bluray Features?
 

A complete standard
No HDMI issues at all

Re: What are your dream Bluray Features?
 

Stop & Resume. This really should be a basic feature of every BD.

Re: What are your dream Bluray Features?
 

^That is #2 behind the best PQ/AQ possible. The IMDB linking thing is pretty cool though.

Re: What are your dream Bluray Features?
 

A movie that loads in under 15 seconds.

Re: What are your dream Bluray Features?
 

It would make everyone happy if Lucas would give us the original SW trilogy and used either seemless branching or the alternate angle feature so you could watch either the true original versions with their "outdated" original effects, or the SE versions with their CGI enhancements...basically do it just like Paramount has with their BD releases of Star Trek: The Original Series where can switch it on the fly....

Re: What are your dream Bluray Features?
 

I'd rather just have separate versions. The problem with angles is that they need to encode a second video stream into the space normally used by one, which limits the bitrate (at least the peak bitrates). Besides, there are so many changes that seamless branching probably isn't feasible for those movies.

But, I guess that really depends on what you want. Do you want the original, or do you want some hybrid that contains the new effects but drops the added scenes? I imagine some people want tweaked effects, but no Han Solo with Jabba.

Re: What are your dream Bluray Features?
 

Bingo!
I am not a purist that demands only the untouched original versions, as I think that some of the upgraded effects and corrections were done for the better....however, I also think there were some changes that were uncalled for and were done for the worse, so I can never be happy with only the SE versions...
I'd just love to be able to switch between the two depending on which version is preferential for that specific scene or effect....much like Paramount has so graciously allowed us to do with ST:TOS on BD....
