SHAM029/SHAM200 - New York Ripper HD: The Tech Debate

[Sarah@Cult Labs]

As promised, I have some comparison shots so that you can compare the PQ of the new version of NYR with Shameless' earlier release (SHAM001). For a more detailed analysis of the PQ in the release as a whole, you should check out Nos's excellent review in the reviews thread.

Obviously screen grabs only show a brief moment in the film so for more information I'd highly recommend checking out reviews as we get nearer to the release date. However, having seen the NYR BD, I can say that the film looks spectacular in HD, with really gorgeous PQ and audio!

I'm assuming the top screenshots are the new BD??

Yeah, hence the captions identifying the top ones as from SHAM029 and the bottom one is as from SHAM001, the very first DVD Shameless released.

I imagine the ones from the BD will look even better but, as it would take a long time to find the right frames to capture and then resize them so they are the same size as errors DVD caps, I'll just say the picture quality on the BD looks awesome and leave it at that!

Would help if I looked at it properly the first time round, sorry for being a douche!

To be honest the PQ doesn't look great but like you say I'll only be able to judge once I see it in motion myself

German audio for the DVD...???!!!!!!

You just made this German DVD collector's day, turning this release into a "must buy" for me

Looks very good to me, the print looks a lot clearer and more colourful. What's the extra scenes and bits of footage then?
