    BR = class, but not on blu-ray, just as better off with a DVD from a picture quality perspective

    What are you smoking? Blade Runner looks brilliant on Blu-Ray, in particular the newly digitally remastered final edition.

    BTW it is well worth getting the US version of Blade Runner as it comes on 5 Blu-Ray discs, with the 5 different versions of the movie.

    They should make that available at all pharmacies to cure insomnia!

    I thought it was not worth the premium price, high def still struggles with dark scenes in my opinion and there are a lot of those in BR.
    I have the dvd/hddvd and br versions and wouldn't see that much of a difference on a 55" 1080p TV, but sure that's my opinion and we digress

    I expect your TV may be struggling with the dark scenes if that's the case. I have the HDDVD viewing on a 90" 1080p DLP projector at 24fps, and it is in my opinion one of the best HD discs I have. Haven't bothered with the BR version as I have the full limited ed. HDDVD boxset and the transfer is identical on the BR. The difference between the DVD and HD version is dramatic.
