Blu-Ray Releases?

Vegeta · 01-30-2014, 12:32 PM

Does Nick plan on releasing season one on blu ever? I'd love to have it as the hd streaming looks and sounds mediocre. I'm sure this has been answered elsewhere but forgive me, searching isn't my strong suit.

I truly hope so! I hate buying dvd's but I did buy the dvd's of this show as I missed most of them when they aired and I wanted to catch up. However, I would double dip in a second if they announced a Blu-ray release! Shout has been doing a nice job of putting out the Transformers Prime series. I would think this TMNT toon is just as worthy of a blu release!!

I was *just* thinking about this. Yeah, we need a season 1 blu-ray set. It's been way long over due now.

*Shark_Blade* · 01-30-2014, 06:47 PM

Please make one like NOW, Nick.

*snake* · 01-30-2014, 06:51 PM

Hopefully, or better yet, when its finished, a complete series box set.

I don't feel the need. Went to my friend's place, popped Rise of the Turtles into their Blu-Ray. IT WAS BETTER QUALITY THAN SOME BLU-RAYS. (70-inch TV helps too. But it was totally in 1080p.) if you have a Blu-Ray, remember it also makes your DVDs better looking.

You're talking about dvds right?

I did the same with the dvd into my blu ray. It's still inferior to blu rays.

Blu rays are still far superior and there still isn't a dvd box set of the show even. WTH is taking so long? Turtle sets seem to sell well.

Aaronardo · 01-30-2014, 08:12 PM

Forget blu-ray. I just want a complete season boxset here. However, blu-ray would be nice.

*NinjaPug* · 01-30-2014, 08:48 PM

Just saw where they are releasing the first 13 episodes of Beware the Batman on Blu-ray. Hopefully TMNT can get a blu-ray release if a show that was essentially cancelled before the first half of the season was done airing gets one.

*Zulithe* · 01-30-2014, 11:06 PM

I own all the episodes so far on iTunes and I'd still rebuy on blu-ray if possible.

Frequently requested and always ignored by Nickelodeon.

How did you all have the picture set up? Was it set up to watch in full screen where there are no black borders around the picture? It may look fine if you did that, but then there's always the chance that you could be missing a bit of the picture depending on how the Blu-ray player's settings are. I found that I had to set my Blu-ray player's picture mode to 4:3 for when I play widescreen DVDs on it to get the full picture, although there will still be the black border. That being said, I'd also hope for Blu-ray releases so I wouldn't have to fiddle with my Blu-ray player's settings.

*Raven* · 01-31-2014, 04:52 PM

Having the whole season on blue ray would be awesome, but Nick will probably keep putting out the random episode DVD sets.

I know it took quite awhile for legend of Korea to end up fully on blue ray so I'll hold my breath until then.

*CyberCubed* · 01-31-2014, 10:55 PM

It'll happen eventually. The Nick sets are aimed at kids, they're cheap so the parents will buy them for them.

Nick is well aware older fans want proper season sets. And by "older fans" I even mean teens 13+ who are watching the show.

atreyu2112 · 02-05-2014, 05:46 PM

The Legend of Korra has both season 1 and season 2 sets out on both blu-ray & dvd. So we should be getting a blu-ray set from Nick.

*Donatello19* · 02-05-2014, 06:01 PM

I don't even care if it's blu ray or not, I just want a nice, organized season set. I don't want to have to buy all these 6 episode sets individually. But then again, I don't want to wait for a season set to see it not get made, then not be able to find these sets, either.

Exactly what I'm saying. I don't care about quality, just an organized season set. (I also need space on my DVR ;- ;

Shred87 · 02-05-2014, 07:01 PM

I suggest you guys go on amazon and purchase the episodes there...its awesome...you can pick hd or standard quality and will own the episode the day after it airs... No waiting on dvds here

But I want a product...something I can hold, take pride in, display on a shelf...I guess it's a collector thing.

Shred87 · 02-05-2014, 07:14 PM

Lol i hear ya man.... I was the same way for a while...now with ipads smart tvs, apple tv, i prefer to have things in a cloud and have access to it in the matter of seconds... I love the convenience of it.... I never worry about missing an episode... I can appreciate the desire to hold something in your hand though
