Re: Spielberg's WAR OF THE WORLDS >> 6/1

Dunno if it does. I think it was just Minority Report. I JUST got MR and Collateral, I bought them last week and got them today. MR had one, cuz it does that lenticular effect. Collateral didn't. Which is fine..I just give a damn about the BD...still..that MR cover art along w/ Collateral is ugly.

Re: Spielberg's WAR OF THE WORLDS >> 6/1

Thanks for the feedback. I was pretty certain this one would have a slipcover too.

Anyway, I just opened my copy and realized it was in an eco-case. No problem, I have plenty of replacement cases. However, when I was removing the artwork, I realized it was fairly damaged. So I kicked the shit out of the eco-case before throwing it away. I feel better now.

As for the kid being alive at the end, it didn't even surprise me. We all know that if you didn't see him die, HE DIDN'T DIE.

I think all eco-cases should be donated to help fill the same damn corporate oil hole in the sea from whence they came.

Re: Spielberg's WAR OF THE WORLDS >> 6/1

What's the deal with the forced trailers that you can't even skip?

Although I think they might be trailers that were taken off of BD-Live, which is worse because they take up bandwidth, look like shit and still can't be skipped. How do I disable BD-Live again?

It's Java when I have the time I am going to disable it. They are pushing DB live something I would use from time to time if I did have have a dish at home.

I can't believe there's no talk of this. The audio track might be the most impressive I've ever heard.

I gave this a spin over the weekend. A very impressive BD all-around -- audio gave me shivers.

The DTS soundtrack on the DVD was reference quality, so it follows that the BD's AQ should kick a** as well.

I know there are some threads around here, but where's the best places to get replacement cases? I think I might start doing this myself.
