It's sad, I want to love BluRay so much. I exclusively buy and rent them now but there are still a few things that pisses me off about them: I have to watch 10 minutes of previous and it doesn't remember where I stopped.
Sometimes I can at least press skip and skip through 20 or so previews, sometimes I can't skip and I have to fast forward through 10 minutes of previous. Did they really not learn from early DVD's that people just want to press menu and go right to the menu and that people also hate long animated menu intros?
Also, another thing-- why the Hell can I not turn off my PS3, come back a day later, and return right to where I was?
I started Inglorious Bastards last night, stopped it, and continued it tonight and after sitting through a bunch of crap I didn't want to see it started me right at the beginning of the movie.
Again, a step down from DVD's.
It was so great with DVD's-- I could press menu and go straight to the menu and even skip most long animated menu intro and when I turned the DVD player off, it would remember where I was when I turned it back on. Why would they get rid of these two great features with BluRay?
High quality image? Got to have that.
Lots of storage? Sure, the more the merrier!
Skipping previews and remember where you stopped? Those have to go.
I mean really, I'm watching a freaking BluRay, why do you have to advertise it to me and why can I not just skip it and go straight to the menu?
