i happen to find this....awesome..

[last stand 2.0]

two things why is there no opening menu on the blue ray disc it doesn't matter to me but i want to know it just plays the movie right away

then also people with blueray does anyone notice that the picture during the IMAX filmed scenes is much better than the regularly filmed scenes

i thought they filmed on HD cameras but i found out they didn't

its funny though you notice the IMAX scenes because the widescreen bars go away and the picture gets better

the picture is good even when not on the IMAx scenes but there is a difference

i was also suprised there was no blue ray sign before the movie because in most blue ray movies there is a blue ray sign prior to the movie

for those with HDTV's who are objective i would like to know you thought on the picture

its as i've said before if not filmed in HD the picture can get grainy on blue ray for the most part this movie had low grainy levels but its did happen every now and then

batman begins bluray was the same way. they both just start the movie. they treat them as if you are at the theater.

imax is the same way, you can tell whats filmed in imax and whats not since it goes from widescreen to fullscreen.

If there was a crazy line, I guess it was. Who would really do that for a movie? I can understand a game or console, but a movie...

I can understand if it's something that will sell out, or it's some one time deal. but I'm willing to bet you can find a copy during your lunch break easily.

^ thats all fine and dandy.. but consider how long BLU RAY has been out

granted but biggest seller in history, even in a short history, is still pretty good. TDK has set the bar and i'm sure another movie will surpass it but for now i celebrate the milestone.
