Hey Bulls if you don't mind LMK what you think about the PQ on Lethal Weapon when you get around to watching it. I bought the HD DVD and wasn't very impressed and was wondering if the BD transfer was any better. Thx.

WB titles overall have been mediocre. I believe they have been employing MS encodes and they are simply not all that great. But I will let you know how it looks. The recent Harry Potter releases have been pretty good. WB are also pretty poor on HD audio. Almost non-existent.

My 5 disc Blade Runner will probably arrive after Christmas but I believe it at least has Total HD and the PQ is supposed to be incredible on BD. http://forum.blu-ray.com/showthread.php?t=27055

Yeah I have noticed that with WB titles. Unfortunate. I was similarly disappointed in Excalibur and Caddyshack on HD DVD but at least the newer WB titles seem to be quality. Batman Begins and The Matrix Trilogy are a few of my favorites.

Thanks for the link to the Blade Runner review too. What is your opinion on the Blu-ray.com forums since you seem to have been there for a while? I haven't used it as a source for unbiased opinions since format specific forums usually consist of a bunch of zombies. Not saying thats the case here just wondering if its generally an objective place for reviews and such. If so I'll use it as a resource.

The insiders are pretty good. But as you would expect they are pretty biased towards BD. They do however try and not bash the other format. Just provide the facts.
