Finish watching Platoon, the PQ is OK but not perfect, I believe it could be much more better, they is less sharpen and in details, and slightly color weird - slightly saturate.
Some user report it is grains, but I find it Ok.

Anyway, this still by far the best PQ I ever seen in Platoon. 3.5 star for PQ.

PLATOON was eleased under ORION STUDIO which went bankrupt, MGM took over it but also went bankrupt, now 20th century fox has put efforts in remastering it. i believe there is lots of limitation in the original sorce.

anyway, the bd pic quality is really acceptable for me,

for me, best movie collectiong as follows:

VIETNAM WAR - APOCALYSE NOW by LION GATE, DEER HUNTER BY STUDIO CANAL, PLATOON BY MGM/20TH FOX, FULL METAL JACKET BY WB
WW2 - SAVING PRIVATE RYAN BY PARAMOUNT, THE THIN RED LINE BY CRITERION, THE LONGEST DAY BY FOX, CROSS OF IRON BY OPTIMUM (LEGION B), BANDS OF BROTHER BY HBO

usually AMZ CANADA STEELBOOK $ will discount from time to time, remember few months back the ALLIANCE steelbook was selling at C$12 TO c$15 (normally C$20).

There was one time the Warner Bross Steelbook was on sales at C$11, but only for 1 day, too bad i missed it, title included HEAT, MATRIX, 300 so on. cry.gif

GRINHOUSE 2 disc was offer at C$17 but now already out of stock.

some WB re-release by ALLIANCE is merely the repacking, eg. THE LAST SAMURAI & TROY. i was so exicted & though it was new release at HD sound, but the bluray.com just updated it is in same old dolby digital.

today i received my AMZ US discount bin disc - remmeber few weeks ago the crazy sales at U$7/disc. it finally arrived, after 27 days of waiting, but i already expecting 30 days of time frame for AMZ US for i-parcel. 12 titles, can last me a while & no more buying for this month. biggrin.gif

don't worry, AMZ UK sales always "i will be back" approach, just monitor it for few more days, some time the $ might even go cheaper.

Just finish Disc 1 of The Fellowship of the Ring, if you aware of color timing issue, then, you will notice in some scene there is really change of color.  But for me, I do think that those scenes are okay for me and not all scene have change color, only some scenes. Most of them are in darker scene. For bright scene, it is not problem.

Overall, to me, revised color timing issue really didn't bother me at all.  Still enjoy this movie even though I have years didn't watch it.  tongue.gif The only problem is I don't have AVR, thus can't really enjoy the audio part.  cry.gif

To be continue tomorrow for Disc 2 of The Fellowship of the Ringtongue.gif  Already quite late.  tongue.gif


Added on July 1, 2011, 11:22 pmjohnbluraylover, are you mean you want to buy the The Lord of the Rings Collector's Chess Set?  Now The Lord of the Rings box set come with one catalog, their sale this Collector's Chess Set (include chess board and 32 pieces portraying characters) at US$495.  Their also offer 2 additional package, one is 12 additional chess pieces portraying characters from The Two Towers with cost US$109 and another package come with another 12 additional chess pieces portraying characters from The Return of the King with also cost US$109. All those chess pieces measure 2-3 inches in height.

Really expensive but nice.  sweat.gif
