QUOTE(valho @ Dec 15 2010, 09:21 AM) It's just $44.99 at Amazon US woh, I am waiting for it to drop to $30 before I buy  At yesterday's price, it was cheaper at Amz UK as shipping was cheaper. But today Amz US will be cheaper.

QUOTE(valho @ Dec 16 2010, 11:28 AM) What happen to your DHL package? Priority shipping ka? Mine shipped on 13th already delivering today. But my UPS a bit funny, it's already in Sepang but the status say airplane late, even though it's already there. Still no status on clearing ketam or anything I am starting to wonder if UPS even work during the day I chose Std Shipping but Amazon decided to shipped it by Expedited Intl Shipping during the BF sales. Earlier I could see the tracking info, and it mentioned DHL. That's why I'm keeping a look out for the DHL guy. But now, when I check my orders, I can no longer see any tracking info. Maybe have to wait until pass due date and then email Amz US for resend.

QUOTE(wiNd @ Dec 16 2010, 12:32 PM) even though it says DHL, when it reaches Malaysia, POS LAJU will be the one sending the parcel this is for my case. i picked Std Shipping, but Amazon UK used DHL. Like this ahhh.....I guess it's lost somewhere then. Usually it has never taken such a long time.

QUOTE(hairyLGS @ Dec 20 2010, 10:28 AM) Hissing sound? From the movie or from the player itself?  From the movie. Righht from the beginning. I thought it was the background jungle noise. but then it continues throughout the show until its overwhelm byt the battle scenes. Exmaple, it's also there in the scene when Moore approaches Snake and Too-tall during the baseball game. Allycat

QUOTE(hairyLGS @ Dec 20 2010, 10:49 AM) That never happen to me for my copy. I know there were two different cover editions for the BD so this hissing sound did not occur to my copy.  I got it from Amz UK. So maybe their copies have this problem. I guess I'll have to live with it.

QUOTE(wiNd @ Dec 20 2010, 04:23 PM) action sequences....Dark Knight, Saving Private Ryan, War of the Worlds & Black Hawk Down.  or treat them with Richard Strauss's "Also Sprach Zarathurstra" opening credits of 2001 Space Odyssey  I got Dark Knight to show off the PQ. How about AQ? Don't have 2001 SO. I use to play Hero DVD to test the sound system but i don;t have Hero BD. The reveiw was very negative for hero BD.

QUOTE(yonggoh @ Dec 21 2010, 06:33 AM) House of Flying Daggers...especially this scene if you have a tight surround speaker set up... good to test channel separation and a wide frequency range I also like HOFD on DVD. But bluray.com was very negtive on the PQ for the BD. Is this true? Appreciate your opinion on the PQ.

Just watch Hellboy 2 last weekend. The PQ and AQ is out of this world.
Also, it one of the few BDs that have DTS-MA 7.1 sound.
If you haven't got it, grab it and make it one of your reference BD.

QUOTE(anfieldude @ Jan 4 2011, 11:36 AM) Some older title bd review. Taken Entertaining movie, fast paced and good acting. Put off watching this for a while as I hv kids and was uneasy with the storyline. Good movie to show teens on the dangers of strangers. PQ - Not sure why but there was inconsistencies with the transfer. Blu ray.com rated it highly but High Def Digest did not. I observed some black crush and some scenes that did not receal enuf details. AQ - Top notch for lfe. Surround are used well.
Also just watched it last weekend. I totally agree with you. PQ is good and AQ is superb. Added on January 4, 2011, 12:29 pmDark City is another classic to watch. The movie is totally shown in night scenes, and the dark scenes are really great. The DTS-HD MA 7.1 sounds were also superb. I've watched it on DVD before. This time the BD version bring the enjoyment to sky-high level. This post has been edited by allycat: Jan 4 2011, 12:29 PM
