 | Knocked out by the picture quality on SERENITY! Aintitcool's Moriarty comments on the new "Serenity"-HD-DVD! |

The DVD blog starts with the normal DVD-reviews, but there will be HD-DVDs out this week, so he reviews them as well:
LASERDISC2K6
And now here we are... ground zero. Launch day. Come hell or high water, the studios are planning to put out the first batch of HD-DVD titles this week. Of course, no one’s sure if the players for those discs are going to be in stores as well, but that’s what makes this format war so much fun... the sheer half-assedness of it all so far.
Here’s what early adapters have to look forward to when they hit whatever stores are actually stocking these titles tomorrow. If you’re one of the people who go, drop me a line and let me know what you find and where.
[...reviews ofthe other HD-DVD releases and the last one is:]
SERENITY
Of course, you could skip the Warner launch titles altogether and just go straight to this, Joss Whedon’s space western, beautifully shot by Jack N. Green. Here’s the exact sort of title Warner should have used as their opening shot... an FX driven action film. I’ve talked to someone who has seen this transfer, someone who actually works in the production end of the DVD business, and they were knocked out by the picture quality on SERENITY. Of course, when they saw it, the mastering team couldn’t get half the file to play... but I’m sure that’s been worked out. If you’re looking to make your machine sit up and dance right out of the box, here’s your one safe bet for the week.
