Silverado

[mitch57]

There's a new re-release of the western film "Silverado". It's remastered in DTS. I thought it was quite good. Has anyone else seen it? How did you like it?

[David Meek]

Daaaaaang, I missed the DTS track on this re-release! 8O Neither Widescreen Review or The Digital Bits have anything out on their websites about this disc. How's the picture quality, too?

[David Meek]

Whoa! This is a Superbit!!!! :banana: There's no indication at all on the front image that this is one, but in the details at Amazon it shows as "remastered in high definition (Superbit presentation)". Okay, off to Best Buy I go tomorrow.

Tex I have this and to be honest, the Superbit wasn't all that much better than the original dvd. But the DTS track was a nice bonus. Disc 1 has the movie plus either a DD 5.1 or DTS soundtrack, plus a commentary track. Superbits usually don't have any extras. Now maybe that's the reason the Superbit pic didn't look as good as I had expected. But then, not all Superbit transfers are created equal, are they.

It's a relief to hear that about the PQ George. My copy is one of the 1.85:1 versions they initially released in error (a collectable?) and I didn't want to think that it was already "out to pasture".

[George Bellefontaine]

Tex, funny you mentioned the 1:85 version because that's why I bought the new SE so I could get the 2:40 aspect ratio. But I will keep the 1:85 " collectible", HEH,HEH. :B

[David Meek]

Yeah, had the sides been cropped to get the 1.85:1, I'd have thrown that thing away so fast! But, since it was actually the top and bottom that were cropped to get the 2.35:1, I just figure we got more of the movie to watch.

[David Meek]

I found this at our local Sam's Club last night for $12.99! Yes, it's the 2-disc Superbit. I couldn't help myself. :B

[George Bellefontaine]

Terrific price. I paid $22 CDN for mine.

[Brandon B]

Wow! That's a load of crop!

I've picked this movie up at least twice to read what its about and I then put it back.
I am bringing it home next time...

Some movies like this are just classics. I am going to get it just to replace the origonal copy my little one messed up! 8)
