Unfortunately, the mainstream doesn't care about it. Many people seem to think it looks good when all detail in a picture is smudged. Sad but true.
I remember when reading about Predator ultimate hunter edition on blu-ray. (You probably know it's one of the worst cases.) One customer on a site here in sweden wrote "The DNR is in my opinion a fantastic solution which I would love to see in more movies/releases."
Yeah, I remember the whole business with the predator ultimate edition. God, that picture of arnie with his cigar at the beginning of the film that was going round was absolutely awful, like a waxwork from Madame Tussauds. I had never seen anything quite like it again until I saw Liam Neeson and Natalie Portman in some scenes of The Phantom Menace blu-ray, just as bad as Arnie was. Absolutely awful. So much for LF three levels of QC.
As for that comment from the customer on the swedish site, one can only shake ones head. Really leaves you speechless.
