Can you hear me Warner Bros.!?
I'm in the same boat as you Jester, I'm not buying the movies until they release a special edition.

I just don't get it with WB video. Why can't we get a special edition of all the movies? At least add in some behind the scenes stuff, even if its from the archived media/promo press kits, if thier unwilling to make new featurettes. At least these would give us insight into the films makings. Is commentaries so hard to do? The directors should be given these chances. Cut scenes so hard to add? I just don't get it. Even **** movies or cult films are getting the extras on their dvds. Why can't the TMNT films get this?

If the Bluray ones are really remasters, then I might buy it...But I'd be more willing to give my cash to the guy on the forum whos making the TMNT fan Documentary. Deffinately more deserving.

I emailed Warner Bros. to see if there was going to be any special features and I got this response.

So that means we're getting the same crappy features as the New Line release??

Raise your hand if Warner Bros. just lost a sell.

*Raises hand*

It's pretty obvious the set is for people who don't own the movies already. The fact there's no special features fails to surprise in the least. I'll be buying the blu-ray collection and that's it. I own the 3 films I care about already on DVD. Maybe I can use the movie 3 blu-ray as a Frisbee. I don't know if I can handle suck on that level in HD. The costumes looked enough like ass in standard def.

Actually I'm a tad concerned the films will look like ass in HD. I know the costume work was far from flawless I bet the errors will pop even harder in HD.

[T]he DVD will be available for the MSRP (Manufacturer's Suggested Retail Price) of $39.92, while the Blu-ray will be available for the MSRP of $84.99.
84.99 ÷ 39.92 = 2.13
Is Blu-Ray really so much better than DVD that it's worth a little over twice as much money?

Wow, I feel like an idiot now. I just realized that the original press release said the same thing about bonus material and special features... so I guess this isn't that big of a deal

If a mod could just merge this with the other one, that would be fine.

There may not be any extras, but isn't it a bit odd that we're less than a month away from release day and WB still has yet to announce anything about the discs themselves?



At Comic Con maybe?

What about the discs? It's basically just the movies, and they threw some crap together that isn't at all the stuff we want to see for the BluRay set.

Nope. There's really nothing to announce, and if they were gonna do that, it'd be listed in the programming somewhere (and it's not).

They still have yet to announce "Techical Specs". Just because it's not listed doesn't mean it can't happen.


We'll see. You never know.

Yes, yes it is. It's half the resolution of film compressed onto a small screen. Even old movies look insanely detailed. For these films though it could work against it being as how there were costume errors we noticed already just on DVD. I juts got a bluray player and it's awesome. The only issue I have is the sync issues it has with DVDs. Which some people have sync issues even with blurays. I guess the tech is still too new or something.

Blue rays are definetly better than DVD's the resolution is really amaizing the only problem I have encountered is that when you buy old movies on Blue ray format they only look slightly enhanced since they we're not recorded for a blu ray format ,they will never have the quality look as a new movie that is recorded to fit the blue ray

Fugly. Anyone found what the DVD packaging looks like, I hope it's not as thick at that one.
