BuZZ from Customer Shopping
Quality looks great - but the packaging is horrible
I will skip the content reviews as we all know what is to be seen, that just leaves how it looks and sounds. The quality of the Blu transfers are very well done, the colors, content lines, and saturations all were transcribed eloquently. There were no blurs, no grain, no artifcats - all in all a pleasure to watch all these years later.
The sound was brought across ok (and I love anything DTS), but the limitations of the time seem to filter through in a variety of scenes. The music overwhelms some scenes and the mix was obviously dubbed wrong at certain moments but that once again was original mixing issues.
The special features are endless and can give any Bond fan hours of enjoyment that have not been on other sets before. The menu navigation was actually flawless and can be up to 7 selections deep with some of the special features.
The detractor though - an incredible list of flubs on the case. They used a cheap cardboard book sleeved in a flimsy plastic/glued outer paper...with - prepare yourself - moronic chair leg fobs glued to the cardboard pages to hold each disc. That designer needs to be FIRED. Each of my customers' sets (including mine for the store) had loose discs. Each set has lasted only one to two uses before the remaining glued fobs just fall apart or stay attached to the disc. Essentially - the cases are totally useless; I would highly recommend using your own storage system.
Overall - the movies look great but the packaging is a laundry list of problems, I went to the local Costco and listened to all 40 sets they had on the floor and each one had loose discs (mind you I gently listened). The quality of the pics have impressed customers to where they are even noticing the vibrant color of the actor's eyes; but also one little problem came up I was not expecting - nudity. The clarity is so crisp that you notice a naked breast before the pool scene that could not be seen before and in the bedroom scene with the blonde girl...a customer complained because they noticed it as I was playing it in the store. Oh well...
