What is worng expecting too much I mean as consumers we are justfied in getting our money's worth. Its this kind of mentality that makes companies like EROS or YRF not care about quality (and eventualy much retailers and consumers tooas this forum has shown).
DDLJ should have been one of the best DVD's in the market, let consider some facts.
ONE, the film rights owners have access to original negatives, so decent transfers could be made from them onto an interpostive print! (Hell they produced the film)
TWO, brand new Dolby Digital 5.1 mix could have been created from original audio stems which Yash Raj films should have access to as well!
THREE, better DVD encoding work could have been afforded from YRF who have become leaders in UK Indian film distribution. Having million dollor sucesses from cinema showings of films like Biwi No One, Kaho Naa Pyaar Hai, and even the recent film K3G, I'm sure they could have made this title have a more quality built to it. Hell even DEI was offering to do the film for free, which they decline when I asked them if they was intrested! Ok I understand them declining since DEI are rivals but at least try other authoring houses, which would make DDLJ shine on DVD.
FOUR, Yash Raj has had over two years to make this product on DVD 9Since the DVD crazy began), but it seemed like they just did the product last week. Even the one day old new releases DVD's from DEI look better in quality.
FIVE,_I'm sure others can add there own views which would make Yash Raj see sense.
I hope they are reading this forum to see how pissed off I am with them...
