Anyone who has an HD DVD player must get this movie even if you didn't care for the movie that much , which is the case for me, the PQ is unbeliveable and makes this one worth buying, BY FAR THE BEST OUT YET, and the sound is great as well even though its only DD+ it still sound wonderful. Again if you have an HD DVD player this one is a must have!

    No TrueHD and knowing that the EE is coming, I'm not buying this HD-DVD, the SD is fine for now. I want the EE and I hope it has TrueHD. There's no reason these HD-DVDs should be lacking it. It's a hi-def format, right? Why only hi-def video and not audio.

    I'm getting to the point that if an HD-DVD lacks TrueHD I won't buy it.
    If...
    Ron dislikes a film = go out and buy it.
    Ron loves a film = don't even rent.

    Yes the load times are slow, but what does that have to do with PQ of King Kong HD-DVD?
