TMNT - best Blu-ray pic quality to date?

Just finished watching TMNT, just wanted to check out the quality but it was a good movie so ended up watching the whole thing which is a surprise as its not really my thing.

The picture quality of this Blu ray has to be seen to be believed!!
For me i think this is the best continuous quality i have seen throughout a movie, flawless picture. The detail on the wooden crates, the dust clouds etc etc simply stunning and a reference disc to show off any system.

Anyone else think the same?

Yes because Ninja was far too dangerous for us sensitive Brits, it was Ninja everywhere else. I was the cool kid at at school because i got my plastic toy from the US and the card packaging said Ninja

Can't see this beating The Prestige anyway, which is undoubtedly the best BD transfer to date

Re: TMNT - best Blu-ray pic quality to date?

Any danger of anyone posting any screenshots?, If your gonna make grand claims about the picture quality its probably a good idea.

I like screenshots as much as the next person but going through the trouble of getting decent quality screenshots just to back up his opinion that it's a good picture on this forum is a bit OTT imo.
I saw TMNT at the cinema and unless Warner screwed up somewhere I have very little doubt that this will be a really good looking HD release.

Is that on Blu Ray or HDDVD? Actually i suppose there is not much, if anything, between the two anyway.

Re: TMNT - best Blu-ray pic quality to date?

I have uploaded a picture but does not do the film justice as it is taken from a camera phone. Picture has no grain at all like the picture shows.

Re: TMNT - best Blu-ray pic quality to date?

Picture quality is very good, it has a nice sharp image with no hint of grain or anything (being taken from the digital source of course). It's not going to astound people with fine detail though, due to the nature of the CG. You do get to see some nice texture detail at times which wouldn't be visible on DVD, but a lot of the faces etc have very little texture to them (except for the turtles).
