It looks very good for the most part (and often excellent), but not stunning or phenomenal. I suspect that this might have to do with the original film master, as it is pretty highly stylized to begin with. FWIW, the BD has received high marks for video quality on High-Def Digest and Blu-ray.com. And yes, it does take a while to load, but it's nowhere as long as my record-holding 'Ratatouille' (which has improved with the latest firmware update on my player).

How was PIP used? - Jazz Inmate 11:52:10 01/09/08 (6)
Just curious how picture-in-picture was utilized in this release. Did you check it out?

    My PS3 is now 1.1 compliant and I just can't for the life of me foresee using this feature.

      Call me old-fashioned, but I'm one of those that just wants to watch the movie and (if I like the film), behind-the-scenes and making-of supplemental features. I couldn't care less about PIP and interactive games that seem to be proliferating on the latest BDs these days.
