I'm sorry Sky, but I think this is pure nitpicking - the Arrow be slightly zoomed, but in my view the CO image is not that dissimilar. I don't see any appreciable difference in brightness or sharpness. Both images show there is a pink light up in the rafters, both images show that she is wearing a white blouse and is holding a key chain in her hand. And I don't see that much grain in the CO's screenshot either.

Can we keep it friendly please people? The last few posts are getting a little antagonistic. Some people like the image on the Arrow disc and some people don't. Let's refrain from the little digs and move on.

Most remotes have their own zoom buttons on them. Give us the correctly framed film and let the idiots out there zoom to their hearts delight. Don't give me a pre-zoomed disc. As for the brightness, look at Irene's face. Clearly, the CO cap shows more light on her face. The Arrow is much softer. Look at her hair. The zoom also makes everything bigger in the frame and softer. |

Personally I think any film distributor that slams another in the fashion that Camera Obscura have been doing with Arrow over Inferno is unprofessional, pure and simple. I have mentioned this earlier on another site but the commentary that accompanies those screen shots from Camera Obscura just defies belief. Frankly as this is Camera Obscura providing the screen shots themselves, there is no way to ascertain whether or not they have deliberately chosen stronger scenes on their release against against weaker versions of the same on the Arrow disc. Therefore, until we get independently customer posted caps as comparison of both releases, I am dismissing the Camera Obscura provided caps on the probability of being biased. |

I have several incredible CO releases, I really appreciate them if their releases are somewhat expensive. But echoing others, they shouldn't do comparisons like that, it seems well below the belt. Is it even legal? For the Arrow disk haters, i've seen the comparisons. I have good eyesight and I can say there really is no need for this complaining. It seems to me that people are just not happy with incredible things these days. A Blu is out there for the world yet nitpicking individuals are looking for any excuse to put it down. There is nothing to complain about, the Arrow release looks amazing just as the CO will be. Personally I went for Arrow as I adore their releases and incredible packages. Really, £15 for an incredible BR is just unfathomable! I think we are spoilt these days and again some folks just can't be pleased with what they get. Please, let's end this dialogue!

I invested a lot of money in a HD beamer and surround system. When I buy a HD blu-ray (and replace my older dvd) I expect the best image (detail) possible. Clearly this is not the case with the Arrow (the image is cropped and it isn't as detailed). I know I said earlier that I preferred the soft image, but now I'm not that sure anymore. I've discussed the grain issue with some other blu-ray enthusiasts and they've convinced me it is a vital part. Arrow's release is fine, but it isn't definitive by the looks of it. Although it has the better extras of the two (going over the Obscura list which looks like filler, a commentary by 'Film Historians' who had nothing to do with this movie? No thanks). However, I'm actually now considering selling my Arrow for the Obscura purely for the movie quality, which in the end what it's all about. I've given this a lot of thought over the last week, seeing more screenshot comparisons. I will await the Obscura review and price before I go ahead. |
