It's better than the DVD release- PQ wise! Yes, it has some grainy scenes but that's what the film makers intended to do.. Audio quality is awesome in 5.1 LPCM!

hello, may I ask if the documentary on the special features is the same as the dvd version? Im into documentary stuff hehe..Is this documentary by National geographic? Thanks

That's the main down fall! But you can always look at the positive side of the coin...

That's all I'm trying to look at right now!

I agree . . . and we're not even format neutral yet. :'( Ang hirap kasi, once you go Hi-def you dont want to watch SD movies anymore.

There's a thread discussing about Amazon & tax issues. You may look up there for more info.

For my area in Manila/Malate, in general regardless what shipping method I choose, yes it will incur taxes.

But sometimes for a small item value, there will be no tax.
Sayang Royal Logistic doesn't deliver to my area.

I really like Black Hawk Down for blu ray, those vivid images of the solder being carried out after the grenade blast looked so real

Those of you who have purchased Blood Diamond HD DVD, pls do share your feedback on its PQ.

The official review says the PQ only 3 stars but other fans argue it easily get 4 to 4.5 stars based on the Director's intent. $:-\$

Maximus · « **Reply #416 on:** Jul 07, 2007 at 12:19 AM »

Blood Diamond Hd Dvd is at least 4 stars PQ for me. Noticed a little grain during the battle scenes only with the handheld camera movement effect. Otherwise PQ has depth and contrast for 3 dimensionality for me

pchin · « **Reply #417 on:** Jul 07, 2007 at 12:44 AM »

Appreciate the feedback Maximus.

Yep, Blood Diamond will be my next HD DVD order.

dts-HD 3D · « **Reply #418 on:** Jul 07, 2007 at 02:01 AM »

This is so far the 2nd HD DVD movie to integrate a web-based content as a bonus and 3rd will be the spartan movie - '300' . . . its time to make that ethernet port put into use.

@Maximus,
Have you tried to access them? the 'Maps of Conflict' i think is worth checking.

PM sent.
