Got this yesterday it's a great movie and a great disk. Picture and audio quality are great. There is slight EE in a few scenes but you'd be hard pressed to see it unless you were looking for it. What pleases me most is that when you play the disk the movie starts playing, at least in my European version. There is a little BD-J progress twirly and then it automatically plays the movie. No trailers, no menus, no nothing, just the movie. I wish Disney would get a clue and stop sticking trailers on the front of their movies.

I wish there was a menu. Trailers before a movie are inexcusable and annoying, but it's also annoying that the movie just starts. It takes my player about 1-2 minutes from power on to movie start...then randomly the movie starts. I then have to call up the menu (over the movie) and select TrueHD and whatever other features, which kind of ruins the mystique of a movie's opening scenes.
I'd rather select all my options from a menu, THEN start the movie.
RDS @ Dec 11th 2008 9:31AM
I agree Mark. Start to the Movie was great. No fooling around with trailers. PQ/SQ was amazing. Very Deep BASS. Little to much for my girl who bitched everytime I watched it. Just had to get used to 35mm and IMax footage.
