It looks gorgeous!
I've been underwhelmed with ITV HD TV shows like Harley Street, but this is really nice.
I know Newcastle HiFi keep the BluRay of this in the demo room for demonstrating 1080p projectors. When I was there the guy made a point of finding a jungle scene.
I'm not getting 5.1 sound, just Dolby Digital 2.1, what gives with that?

Yeah it popped up the DD symbol when I switched over, but my processor isn't switching to DD. Still looks amazing, the 'locals' fortress looked especially good!

I don't remember any bars, but it didn't look stretched - so my guess is they zoomed in.
