DTS-HD Master Audio…… Right on! The opening scene will be incredible on blu-ray. I was lucky enough to see this movie on the Paramount lot before it was released. Talk about a sweet theater. Best I’ve seen and heard to date. I recall a Paramount employee warning all of us about the graphic nature of the opening scene. That theater was so quiet after the opening scene, everyone was so mesmerized. That opening battle made me realize it takes a special person to jump off that transport boat. The sheer terror would be more than I could personally handle.

The greatest two words in this movie: “Earn This”

I'm glad the reviews are so positive. I was debating whether to blind buy in case it turned out like Gladiator in the Sapphire Series.

Anybody know if Paramount will be offering a $10 rebate for upgrading to Blu-Ray for this one?

I'll answer my own question, no they didn't. But that's ok, Best Buy had a good deal on it. Looks wonderful and the DTS-HD Master Audio sounds great!
