Also, in your first post you said you hate the menus.  That's what I was responding to.

Oh I see. Well, now that you ask, I actually almost dislike the menus more than the poor handling of the movie. Almost. Menus for me are supposed to guide someone quickly to the option that they want in a DVD, and do so without using spoilerish video and still images from the movie. I understand that most people have seen the movie, but that does not excuse the fact that the menus pull from most of the movie for their images and video. Add to that that when trying to get from one group of chapters to another there is an unnecessary change in location or poorly rendered bit of CGI, and you have an irritating and in-your-face interface.

Whew. I think I'm done.

Nope, just remembered the point of the topic. The fact that there are better colors in the menus than on the DVD rubs salt in the wound.

There. Now I'm done. :)
