Serien "Walking With the Beasts", som har kørt i tv, kan fåes til en 50er. Dobbeldisk med alle afsnit, og tilmed dansk fortæller. (Eng - Kenneth Braggnah) Produceret af BBC. http://imdb.com/title/tt0286285/
Og så har de novellen Riding the Bullet af Stephen King til en 10er. (Hans E-bog som bog)
God fornøjelse :) (Hader selv Bilka og Kolding Storcenter, ikke mindst!!
Min fars fætter, har bare mødt John Williams! Æh, Bæh!!
the buses that charged past so overflowing with passengers that from the outside they looked like they were making a rush delivery of spare limbs to some far-off war
Gorgeously filmed in Panavision by Geoffrey Unsworth, A Bridge Too Far looks appropriately spectacular in this 1920 x 1080p / MPEG-2 transfer. Unsworth and Attenborough like to use long lenses to visually squash men and military hardware together so not everything is in focus at the same time, but nor is this the grainy, soft-focus Unsworth of the early Superman movies, either.
A great many shots are so razor sharp one can see all kinds of details lost in the strong standard-def DVD edition. The massive parachute drop is probably the visual highlight. Truly spectacular, what looks like thousands of troops jump from dozens of planes. In extreme long shots, it looks like Salmon laying thousands of eggs. Covered from dozens of different angles, including cameramen themselves participating in the mass-jump, it's a sequence you'll want to show your friends. I was surprised by the number of optical composite shots of planes as they head for the Netherlands. The DVD presentation fooled this reviewer, but on Blu-ray barely perceptible matte lines reveal that most of the planes in flight are real planes matted in or photographs and/or paintings. The end titles, incidentally, are windowboxed.
The audio is as spectacular as the film. Back in 1977, the film was blown-up to 70mm in big cities and presented in six-track magnetic stereo. The Blu-ray offers 5.1 DTS Lossless HD master audio in its original English with a second, Japanese-dubbed track in 5.1 DTS. The Japanese and English subtitles are optional; when you turn the subtitles off, it defaults to a program where only the German and Dutch dialogue is English-subtitled.
The BAFTA award-winning original mixing, presented here with fully-directional sound effects and dialogue is superb, full of bassy bass and extreme clarity. I was particularly impressed with the balancing of the sound effects track with John Addison's rousing, richly orchestrated score, which sounds wonderful amplified to home theater fullness.
Åhhhhhh kære Gud i det høje. Tak. Af hjertet tak!!!
Picture : The picture to me looks a nice step up from the standard def dvd,it looks like it should,the definition is improved, some of the daylight scenes look superb, colours are more vibrant but... the film grain is obviously more evident throughout the movie. The grain is most noticeable over some of the large blue sky shots,and the back projection shots can become a bit crude. There are parts of the print where restoration should have been done, but overall I am pleased with the quality.I now have watched this via the big screen,and the picture can become inconsistent, going from excellent to average. The opening credits for example have a slightly over-crushed appearance which is probably due to the process involved. The special effects sequence's are a bit soft, although the grain is somehow easier on the big screen as it becomes part of the recreation of the theatrical presentation.I found the picture quality to be very good and visual treat. The movie was shot in Panavision 2:35:1 and maintains the original aspect ratio.
Audio : The audio is either 5.1 DTS-HD MA English,or 5.1 DTS Japanese. I can only listen to core DTS track via hdmi/pcm ,and its not the type of soundtrack that has an obvious upgrade over standard dvd.It must be stated that its a big improvement over the first dvd,(which was mono)although it can become a bit overblown and uneven at times, a bit like the most recent release of 'The Good,The Bad And The Ugly.At most the original release would have been stereo I would have thought.
Desværre ikke helt i samme kategori, men definitivt værd at vente på. Jeg giver dog ikke +50$ stykket inden de udkommer i USA.
