Smith And Jones Confirmed For MIB 3-D

Barry Sonnenfeld has confirmed to Roger Friedman that Will Smith and, after months of speculation, Tommy Lee Jones will star in Men In Black 3. Smith has been on board Sony’s threequel for some time, but Jones’ involvement was less clear, with Josh Brolin mooted as a replacement, while the likes of Sacha Baron Cohen had also been in the casting frame. However, Jones has been concentrating on smaller dramas, like In The Electric Mist and The Company Men, for some time, so the chance to exercise those blockbuster muscles (and pay for a new conservatory) was probably too good to pass up.At the moment, little is known about the plot of the movie, which Sony will be aiming to get into cinemas by Memorial Day 2011 (that’s May 30, 2011 to the rest of us), but we imagine it’ll involve Agent Jay (Smith) and Kay (Jones) getting in »

Paramount - Region FREE Blu-ray - April 2010: This Blu-ray transfer seems prime for debate in the Forums on whether it is more accurate to theatrical... or manipulated. I believe the former. Well, I checked it on two systems doing two sets of captures - as well as toggling back and forth on my HDTV between two players (DVD and Blu-ray). In certain scenes the new 1080P rendering appears to have lighter, and probably more accurate contrast. Like many, I saw this in the theater but my memory is not so precise in regards to the numerous cinematographic techniques utilized in the film. There is heavy grain in spots, flared brightness, damned colors, intentional speckles to vérité war photography and other parts are pristinely sharp and crisp. I think this Paramount Blu-ray is the most accurate and the DVDs look boosted by comparison (actually the two SD-DVDs are the exact same transfer). I can only say that my presentation was astounding - the film in this new rendering impacted me more than ever before. I was filled with emotion. You can see the high degree of detail in some of the additional screen captures posted at the bottom of this review. The first disc - almost 46 Gig worth, is entirely devoted to the feature - sharing it with no supplements. It is supported with a solid bitrate for the almost 3-hour film. We will do more investigation but as for now I am very satisfied - I see, absolutely, no DNR and suggest that this is the way the filmmakers wanted Saving Private Ryan to look. It's incredibly impressive at times.

Audio is a rousing DTS-HD Master 5.1 anchored with strong 4198 kbps. Bullets careen against metal, bomb bursts explode with dominant bass and the John Williams majestic score never sounded so compelling. More drama and 'shell-shocked' intent is produced by the lossless audio rending. It has incidents of subtle intent and verbose grandeur. This mix is dynamic and buoyant - with moments as aggressive as I have heard in a while. Bravo! There are optional subtitles for the feature and all 2nd disc extras and my Momitsu has identified it as being a region FREE disc playable on Blu-ray machines worldwide.

Extras, all housed on a second Blu-ray disc, have all that the 60th Anniversary D-Day DVD package contains (hour's worth of production featurettes) and add Shooting War - a 1.5 hour 2000 documentary by Richard Schickel. Tom Hanks narrates (Spielberg produces) this film on WW II combat photographers in the Pacific and Europe. It gives great historical context to the feature film. Very much worth watching but is only in SD.

The package is HUGE in my opinion. I have come to appreciate this film in a much greater manner than ever before. "A recruiting film'? Sure - but, if so, the best I've ever seen. The Blu-ray has our highest recommendation.

For current blu-ray, the extra only got:
• Trailers (Teaser and Theatrical- 4:25 in total in SD)
• Arrowsmith Music Video: "I Don't Want to Miss a Thing" (3:35)
• Previews

Whereas, Armageddon: The Criterion Collection DVD version (copied Amazon US) contains following special features:

Deleted scenes, compiled by Michael Bay
Storyboards and production design drawings
Analysis of the special effects by visual effects supervisors 'Richard Hoover' , Pat McClung and Hoyt Yeatman

Criterion blu-ray usually got one booklet in the package. laugh.gif

www.blu-ray.com just did a minor changes in format and forum. Some forum is missing... hmm.gif and the price changes information become even worse and can't longer reflect the info on time when there is price change. This already happened and I already noted for some time. Last time, not all price reduce will reflect in their website and now become worse. Hope this is only temporary. rclxub.gif

3.5 for armageddon i think is ok becos i believe the reviewer compared it to another movie with similar genre and came out almost the same time...which was DEEP IMPACT.....

DEEP IMPACT is incredibly moving without any special song or SFX....it has more human emotions n drama compared to Armageddon.......Armageddon is more "lightweight" compared to DEEP IMPACT

btw DEEP IMPACT got a 5.0 from bluray review..... tongue.gif

That is not good enough for maskedchan. More human emotions n drama is less important to him. The most important is boom boom pow which in this case, Armageddon win. laugh.gif

Just received my copy of God Father Trilogy, The Ultimate Bourne Collection, Iron Man and Celine Dion: A New Day. I just realised that Celine Dion: A New Day is actually same edition as US. I was ordered this copy from UK and the copy I received without nipple and also got while sticker with title name printed on top. Same as US version. Seem like their print one version and sold to whole world. hmm.gif

It seem like some of the BD already start to convert to Single-Disc Blu-ray/DVD Combo. That mean there is only one single disc and one side is blu-ray and another side is DVD. Who's idea is this? doh.gif Double sided disc is always ugly in my opinion. It only will acheive cost saving for holywood's studios. sad.gif

Example are Bourne series of movie (not trilogy pack). Fortunately the Bourne Trilogy did not affected. Here is example:

Who like this idea and disc? and who don't? I don't like this design. Really ugly and missing cover art. sad.gif

www.blu-ray.com called this disc BD-59 (BD/DVD flipper disc). laugh.gif

Really strange for WWII in HD US and UK version.

US version already released but it is only 470 mins whereas UK version will release on April 26, 2010 but it is 600 mins. US version is 1080i whereas UK version is 1080p.

Strange thing is US is 2 discs version whereas UK is 1 disc! shocking.gif

I am not sure information in www.blu-ray.com correct or not. But release date for UK version is sure wrong.
