GREAT movies
question: How is the picture?, context: GREAT movies, Great Blurays, love em!FELLOWSHIPPQ - 3.5-4/5AQ - 5/5MOVIE - 5/5TWO TOWERSPQ - 4-4.5/5AQ - 5/5MOVIE 5/5RETURN OF THE KINGPQ - 4.5-5/5AQ - 5/5MOVIE - 5/5Fellowship is a little soft, but that is because it is the first film, the budget was lower, but is an improved upgrade from dvd, it still looks great, I give it a 3.5-4 on the picture quality. Two towers is better, much sharper, 4-4.5 on picture quality, And Return of the King is the best, solid 4.5-5 on the picture. Some say DNR was used, but I am not seeing it, facial detail and hair detail, clothing detail is all there in all 3 films. The sound on all is awesome. CGI issues, this is not a problem with the transfer, but I feel the CGI gets better with each film. DVD hides CGI flaws, lower resolution, Blu makes things stand out even more, at the beginning of Towers, Gollum seems to float above the ground in some scenes. But by ROTK, Gollum is integrated into scenes perfectly. All the CGI has nothing to do with the transfers, it is how they were made and just not noticable on dvd. In all 3 films there are dark scenes that are a little washed out, like they filmed it too dark and spot lightened an area of the frame, they do this all the time in movies now, but it just flattens that area. This is the best LOTR has ever looked I am not disappointed in anyway for getting them.The extras, I am giving it a 3, since they are the same as the dvd, my gripe, they should have been in HD, not standard def. I've seen them all on the original releases and the EE releases. I expect them to be in HD, upconvert them, do what every, they should be in HD.The Mbps on the EE dvd's is 6-7, The Mbps is 20-30 on the Blu rays. That's 6 times better then the EE DVD's. For those who says there is no differance in the DVD's to Blu, you must have a crappy tv or bad eyes.Would rather have had both versions in one package, YES. But i am happy with the theatrical versions, the versions that one 17 Academy Awards, until the EE come out on Blu ray in 2012
