Title: Could Be a Lot Better
Product review: I didn't mind that it was the theatrical version at all but I expected better video and, especially, audio. The picture was a tiny bit better than the regular DVD release upscaled. The audio was a real letdown. Normally, the Blu-Ray's offer Dolby Digital 5.1 as a fallback to folks who don't have 6.1 or 7.1, but this release only offers Dolby Pro-Logic in English. The last two movies do offer 5.1 in Spanish with English subtitles but I pass on that. I know my receiver is okay because when New Line flashed across the screen, I got DD 5.1 but it went away as soon as the movie started. So I have LOTR with video cassette sound.
Would you say this review depicts the product in a flattering or unflattering light?
