Maybe it's the transfers, I don't know, but I really don't like the look of movies on blu ray. They look, well, cheap; almost like home video.

Please correct me if I am crazy for thinking this.

I'll see you, and raise you that HD TV can look wrong.

I don't know what it is either... can't phrase it but it looks TOO real, too clean, to 'fast' somehow. I'm sure the more tech saavy memebers here can clarify the terms for us.

Partly it's that our eyes are trained to recognize certain types of images as certain things: home movies, standard films, security cameras, Mexican soap operas, and even if we dont consiously identify the different aspects of the video image, our brain categorizes how it looks.

Super HD Blu Ray on a nice HD super TV is a new kind of image, and frankly I'm not sure I prefer it.

I must admit, I loved me some NBA Finals in HD though.
