seriously Vanine,  why don't you go do your b******* and moan*** at avsforum.com?? I'll enjoy seeing you get laughed off the forum there.

Try the "HDTV Software Media Discussion" forum.

     I've called sony (Again) and they transfered me over to there playstation department. i cant get any comments out of them , besides people have been calling and complaining about this issue.

 May 22 is going to be D-Day for us. Every major motion company will be waching to see what happens.Debateing over if they should release there #1 hits on to High-Def. If its a bad port to Blu-Ray......i'll be very upset and it will be all down hill from there. I notice the grain is worst in darker movies and that particular set of movies are really dark.

     If you turn the sharpness down on your TV it helps with the grain, but it doesent get rid of it.Also if anyone has a sony lcd tv, under there setting go to advanced Settings, then to MPEG Noise Reduction. I Have mine set at high.This also helps, But again doesent get rid of it.

     If anyone could suggest to me What movies they Found Best on Blu-Ray that would be appreated, And no ,im not going to read it on some website thats going to give me there ideas of what good PQ is. I want it from you guys. You all sound like you know what your talking about but i want to see it with my own eyes. Im willing to go out and buy a couple more movies that you guys/gals might suggest. It may very well be just the movies i have selected but i can tell you..Stargate is NOT tier 2. Thats apart of why i dont trust the websites dedicated to Reviewing the PQ of Blu-Ray Movies.

[QUOTE="GameCrazed85"]I have heard a lot of people saying that HD-DVD is the better format right now. I may buy the add-on HD drive for my 360 today so I will let ya know, But most users i've talked to with a PS3 and Hd-Dvd player have said HD-Dvd > Blu-Ray in picture quality and menus/extras. Disappoints me since I was looking forward to blu ray and not HD-dvd, now I may be going to HD-Dvd and the PS3 extra cost for the blu ray is about worthless until they start using up the big storage space in games.-Damien-
that's only applicable to earlier blu-ray movies Recent blu-ray movie releases are on par to the best of HD-DVD has to offer. Plus, why would you wanna waste your money when only Universal support HD-DVD exclusively. With Blu-ray you have Disney, Miramax, Pixar, Fox, Sony, MGM, LionsGate, Touchstone, Warner, Paramount

Nah,  King Kong is still the best looking non-animated movie on either format.

I really do hope that Sony reconizes that this is a very common problem and that alot of people are getting concerned about the future of Blu-Ray. As the Film industry changes so will the demand for better picture quality.What we all think is the Cream of the Crop to day will be outdated and sub par tommorow.The industry tells us whats the best out there in terms of quality.They release a new TV and say its the top of the line, new technolagy, so we buy it.Its a consumers world , other companys are aware of this, we want to be amazed everytime we watch a movie.We have been totaly and uterly desensatized and are standards are way to high for any company to provide us with what we want.There is going to be a few that will accepte whats put infront of them, and there will be others that will demand for more.I've relized that after stateing my consurnes about the Blu-Ray quality that i am one that wants more. Companys are waching as we fight over whats the best format. They are biding there time ,waiting to release there devistating blow to the market. Slowly you'll see more and more companys makeing claims that they can produse a 500gig or even a 50,000gig disc that has been dubbed "the protien disc". Did anyone notice what Pentium did to AMD. pentium left them in the dust by supplying multiple versions of there chip so advanced that it made the competiton look dated and sub par.Ask yourself what would you want?

Why is this important to us as PS3 owners?

Dont underestimate the situation by thinking that you'll accept sub par when everyone else blows by us. Blu-Ray is grainy!! and needs to be fixed. It needed to be fixed yesterday because today they are talking about 500g disc and tomorrow will be 50,000 gig disc.

In the next few years when super HD is realesed demanding 6000X4000 lines of resolution you'll all see what i mean.Im not makeing this up they are working on it and its not that far away from being introduced to the public.Even Holographic Tvs are being created. My point to all this is that behind any good technology there needs to be time to perfect itself. Blu-Ray has no time.With compition at there door they cant afford to wait anylonger.The grainynes of Blu-Ray needs to be addressed now.

In the end if its not recognized as a problem it wont be addresed.

Dude...Shutup...Not every movie is grainy...And the one's that are isn't Bluray's fault............ 50,000GB Disk?  60000x4000 resolution?  WTF? That's not even 16x9.  At least be somewhat realistic and say 5760x3240 (won't be standard in my lifetime).

Grainyness is either cuz the movie is grainy on purpose,  or cuz of MPEG2.  HD-DVD also has grainy movies ya know..

I've used all 3 of mine...Samsung 32" 720p, Samsung 56" DLP 1080p DLP and now I've moved it to my 40" Sony Bravia 1080p LCD and hands down I would take the Sony Bravia 1080p LCD out of the 3. The gaming mode on the Samsung is nothing special when you compare it with a flat out better TV for right around the same price. LCD or DLP/Plasma any day.GamersNightmare

That's not really a fair comparison tho...a 40" Sony Bravia would also look better then a 56" Sony Bravia (size doesn't exist i know, but you get the point)
