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.

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.

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?

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.

This is the most boring video in history. 8 different senes. but no momement. the same senes on a static camera no movement. boring is not a right term. Don't buy for pictues of Italy etc.

If you pay more than a few dollars for this one, you won't be happy. Save your money and put it towards a series like Planet Earth or something along that line. Alot of hype for nothing. That's my opinion, probably since I already have the Planet Earth series.

LCD/Plasma Ultimate HD Experience [Blu-ray]

As an HD showcase this DVD is a complete failure.

I have seen clearer, crisper, better defined video as cut-aways on network broadcast series (i.e. CSI)!!

Not only is the video poor, you are subjected to short video loops played over and over and over, etc. It's a bad thing multiplied.

I am returning the DVD -- not for a refund, but as a demonstration of how bad I think it is -- it is a deceptive (fraudlent) attempt to lure buyers who enjoy HD TV and would like to see their video equipment perform at its best.

I gave it 1 star only because I had to give it some rating to get to the point where I could enter this review!

If, by any chance, you're not sure about my recomendation fot buying this DVD - DON'T!!

The title and description of this product is grossly over-estimated. Each video is on a loop with no real changes. Several of the videos were shot at night. This is the wrong video to test out your high-def TV/Projector. I recommend buying a normal movie or one of the "test disks".

This was such a waste of my money. There are a few commercials on TV that you could tape and create your own movie. It is just scenes that are not original and very boring and the music is awful.

I thought it should be a moving picture, but not, just like you standing without any body movement to watch somthing for a long time.
