Yeah, I highly doubt the Blu-ray versions will ever be released like that. It's possible, but I wouldn't expect a packaging change for a few years at least. You could always make a custom cover, and buy a cheap copy of Blade Runner Blu-ray to use as the case for at least Season 1. Then buy Prison Break Season 3 to use the case for Heroes season 2.

The cases in mind, they actually look quite nice, and unless you are a HUGE fan, I doubt you will see much wear and tear. I don't think it's like The Simpsons, were you could just randomly watch an episode time to time and really enjoy it, with out starting from the beginning.

Added a few more pics:





BD-Live still not launched.

Looks like it DOES suffer from Interlacing...

Could be a mix of a crappy camera and a moving frame haha.

Nope. If that were the case, the PiP box wouldn't be so clean looking.

Do you not see a ghosting effect when you watch it?

I need to watch it I guess, I put it in for a minute. Have yet to start on either season. That was season 2 btw.

yeah I could tell by the scene in the shot. Now I'm nervous both will have interlacing issues. What player are you using? Output settings? 720p, 1080i, 1080p?

That was on a PS3 1080p, I could try on a different player and see if I notice a difference. Could it not just be how it was filmed if both suffer the same thing?

it is listed as being 1080p/VC-1 so it shouldn't be interlaced. But the packaging could be lying to us. idk...

Season One is 1080p/VC-1, didn't check Season 2's encode, but I would assume it's the same. I will check later.

I'm leaning towards camerawork/equipment. Could be the TV has weird interpolation/pulldown. The PS3 will say whether something is interlaced or not, and Blu-News says it's telling him it's not.

Watched the first two episodes, picture quality is good - comparable to Season 1. I'd say between 3.5 and 4 stars on the PQ.

That scene does indeed looks strange. I hope Season Two isn't botched and it's just a camera/interpolation thing.

I also don't remember anything looking like that on Season One.

I think it's a camera thing, because I doubt Universal would screw up both seasons. That's season 2, and MrE noticed it on season 1 on HD DVD. It's episode 1 of Season 2, but I'll revisit that scene tonight, to see if I notice it. I didn't notice it when taking the pics, but then again it was very quick.

I'll check out my Season Two tonight and see if there is any issues...
