Been watchign the Video Nasties Def Guide ... the trailers disk alone is 4 hours!! Only 1 hour into it!!

Noticed the glitch,some split second blocking (very light on my player).
Compared to the "letter opening weirdness" I just was made aware of in the French Tenebre bd it's not that big a deal.

Not checked disc 2 yet.

The full subtitles are for the Italian audio and are in perfect sync to the track.
There are some minor moments of backgound dialogue in the the english track that are not even present in the italian one, and not subtitled.

Arrow could have provided english subtitles for both laguages like they did on Inferno but that is just me.
I´m very happy with this edition.

Sorry to rant folks, but what's really annoying me, is that i've seen people on another site pissing all over the Arrow visual quality, calling it a complete mess and the encoding/compression is terrible, then saying that if the BU version looks the same but with a bit better compression, then so be it. They'll make do. So, there will be no moaning about that version from them then? Hmmmmmm. Rant over!

I've been pretty disappointed to read from multiple people about the digital blocking/break-up that occurs in the transfer. There is absolutely no reason that should be allowed to happen and it should not have gotten past the QC stage (if it is inherent in the transfer and not a firmware issue). I like Arrow and have been pretty happy with releases I've bought so far, but there's no excusing this issue (again, unless it's a firmware issue).

The pixelation glitch that folks are going on about at 45:27 does not appear on my Blu-ray (as played through my PS3 (Phat!)

Seems player related then,a firmware update could possibly fix it on other players.
The PS3 is the player who's firmware gets updated the most I think.

The PQ isn't perfect, but it's most certainly not a complete mess, that's for sure.

As I commented, if you're a fan, and not totally broke, it's worth the upgrade.

For me, the SD DVD can't be watched on a projector because it looks so soft whilst, despite all of its faults, I most certainly can watch this on the projector. Indeed, I did!
