Search - LCD/Plasma Ultimate HD Experience [Blu-ray] on Blu-ray

False advertising -- avoid this disc!

"This Blu-Ray disc is a waste of time and money, and the description is blatantly false and misleading. This disc does NOTHING to show off an HDTV system, either visually or aurally. The images are nothing more than one-minute film loops of incredibly uninspired scenes, and they are NOT in 1080i. Clarity is terrible, and the sound track is abysmal. Whoever gave this disc 5 stars either works for the company unloading this garbage, or has absolutely no clue about HDTV and surround sound."

A waste of time and money

"I guess it is my fault for not reading the reviews on this product before I shelled out eleven bucks for it. It might be worth eleven cents but at least it's the only worthless product I have ever bought here at Amazon. It is a complete waste of time and money and I'm only writing this review, my first, to help keep you from wasting yours too."

Yikes!

"How did this ever get to the disc press? Writing a review is wasting my time but i owe it to anyone else who might be looking for DVD Eye Candy. The long and short. Lousy detail! Boring imagery!. I've seen better VHS detail. Whoever created this should be ashamed of themselves for pawning this junk on those looking to accentuate their HI-def systems. Planet Earth is still the best folks. They use the best equipment and go to the most exotic places to get flawless images. Also, the Pixar animations look great too! That said...OK Pixar, where's "The Incredibles" on Blu-ray?"

Marginally HD Screensaver

"The only "Ultimate" with this item is the hype. The HD is perhaps 720i at best and the scenes are boring even for screensavers, which is all that you have when you buy this. Man, did I ever waste $14! I gave it 2 stars just for the cloudy sky time lapse sequence; that one was actually pleasant.



If you want exciting, crisp HD of natural wonders, buy the Planet Earth series or any of the Sunrise Earth offerings in blu ray. Discovery HD does it right - not this amateurish melange of detritus."
