some words from Blu-ray.com review over War of the Worlds picture quality..

The picture does enjoy a strong film-like look thanks to a thick layer of grain that's maybe even a bit heavier than that seen in Minority Report and Saving Private Ryan. War of the Worlds does not offer high definition "eye candy" in the traditional sense, but it is reflective of the way the film is supposed to look, which is the ultimate compliment to any Blu-ray, no matter how rough around the edges it may be.

guess what I saw about the grainy is true thru my eyes..and it is just not my cup of tea  whistling.gif
*
a home entertainment disc is to present the movi in the way that the movi director intended to, WAR OF THE WORLD is meant to be grainy, so the BD present it in grainny way. it is faithful to director's intention.

check out the review:
http://www.dvdtalk.com/reviews/42562/war-of-the-worlds/
http://bluray.highdefdigest.com/3125/waroftheworlds.html

i am not arguing that WAR OF THE WORLD has no grain, i am saying the grainy look is natural & faithful to the movi original look. it is the best presentation of the movi original look.

if it is not original & failure in transfer, DVD TALK REVIEW, BLURAY.COM & BLURAY HIDIFDIGEST would not give iy 4 /4.5 star rating.

the movi applied heavy grain reduction is FRENCH CONNECTION & PREDATOR, both received bad reviews.

Not an arguement, brother, but a personnel opinion, and it is my cup of tea. whistling.gif

Watched Kill Bill vol 1(bought from Johnbluraylover) yesterday night.... I'm impressed with the transfer and remastering.... The haunting song "Bang Bang" send shivers down my spine and kept playing in my head until now....

It is definitely one of Tarantino's best work....looking forward to vol 2!

Guys,

I have a question. It may sound rather unwise.Does the digital copy provided with the Blu-ray pack any use for any of you? Does it impose illegal issue if it were to be sold separately? Taking into consideration many iPhone users are actually having the digital copy in their devices. Does it goes as legal since it uses iTunes account to transfer and i understand most of the iPhone's are "JB" version?

I find the Digital Copy is rather shrewd move for those having high end mobile devices and not for those whose having low tech phones? What's the major impact on legalizing digital copies and it could lead to conspiracy of piracy?
*
Its absolutely useless to me.. I once tried to load it into my sony mp4 player but gave up after I found out how diificult it was..
Legal issues .. hmmnn... technically once u buy de original bd, u r legally allowed to make cps for personal consumption.. its when u 'share' [ more than once ] tat it becomes illegal..

After saying tat, I do see sum sellers jus sellin de dgtl cp itself for a few bucks..

ya, a scary thing man, so, did u get them to replace u the disc?

Nope..

Its frm a small independant seller.. n their responsibility goes to showin proof of posting only.. so burnla ..
But I believe him when he said tat it was fine when he sent , it has to be 3rd party who did d damage - how else can a disc get cracked while still on d spindle wif de casing remainin intact??

So sumtimes hv to tink when wanna ask for % frm local sellers - all d risk involved gettin tis in..

Bro D,

Yet another brilliant response, selling digital copies as in Digital copy (DVD)? I do see the prospect in coming months or years.

I also feel so. But just don't mind to pre-order to get it as soon as possible since I quite like history/documentary movies. tongue.gif

Just watched some parts of 71 into fire, KILL BILL 1 & 2 from CANADA, YIYI, FLOWER & SNAKE, all looks good.

KILL BILL 1 & 2 ALLIANCE QUALITY = AMAZON UK, dif is the cool steel book.

also tried PSYCHO black & white, very sharp, much better than DVD.

TAXI DRIVER is gonna to be my TOP 10 BLURAY DISC, good movi with good bluray release, pic/sound/packing & price all a must.

INCREDIBLES - DISNEY PIXAR also looks very good.
