I bought The Fifth Element on Blu-Ray when I first got my PS3, and needless to say-- while I was impressed with the level of detail, I was dissapointed with the excessive grainyness of the picture. Well, my cries and those of others apparantly were heard by Sony, because now they're releasing a remastered Blu-Ray of it, and here's the good part-- they're going to give it away for free to anyone who bought the crappy version! :)

That's awesome. Great job. I totally recommend Planet Earth for Blu Ray. It showcases what Blu-Ray is really capable of.

Should I remind you that Blu Ray is annihilating HD-DVD in sales, or are you happy with the lies yu tell yourself?

Not wonderful enough for this customer. I like my movies the old fashioned way-- on a shelf, where you only have to pay for them once, and then they're yours forever.

Exactly... They should have released that disc AFTER a quality check. I mean MS would NEVER release crap like that, They are the epithamy om quality. Just look att the 360 for example......oh wait!!!

And yet the truth of what I say still stands. Why in the hell would you thank any company for fixing something that should not have been broken in the first place? And WTF does MS have to do with anything I said? Blu-ray is supposed to be a superior quality video format and they release The fifth Element looking like crap. So now people should be thanking them for fixing it? That's real logical. If my 360 broke and MS fixed it, I'm not going to praise MS for fixing it, THEY ARE SUPPOSED TO DO THAT.

Exactly. To get people to like me, I just have to kick them in the shins, then offer them a place to sit and some ice. Everyone will love me for sure.

I find it kinda offensive they'd charge 10 or more dollars more for a dvd without the highest quality in the first place. Kinda reminds me of my early edition ps1 and ps2's. ~_~

sony has done far worse things and this dose not make up for it. nintendo would give away the movie to anyone and i gurentee it because they actually care.
