If I had LOTR on blu, they'd never get watched because I have the EE's on DVD.

JP Jeunet Disowns Alien Resurrection Blu-ray Transfer
French filmmaker Jean-Pierre Jeunet, director of Alien Resurrection, has revealed on his personal blog that, unlike Ridley Scott for Alien and James Cameron for Aliens, he wasn't invited to supervise the remastering of his movie, included in the Alien Anthology Blu-ray. Jeunet has said that the BD of the fourth Alien installment has the picture quality of "a very mediocre DVD."
Jeunet sarcastically cites the tagline for the new box set: "On Blu-ray, everybody will hear you scream" only to add: "They got that right - scream with rage!"
On the other hand, Jeunet did supervise the remaster for the Blu-ray release of his first film, Delicatessen. He said that most of the sequences have been "de-grained," removing almost all the grain. He explains that there is some grain left "on some shots filmed on 400 ASA stock, and that would become too soft if we de-grained them more. The colors are like we had always wanted, and the result is, albeit imperfect, amazing if we compare it with what we were working from."

Just read that on another site. Interesting. For those that have the boxset, what are you opinions on the Resurrection transfer?

My response to Jean-Pierre Jeunet: Who cares? It's Alien Resurrection.

I agree, I haven't see the Alien Resurrection BLu-ray yet. For me, it's all about Alien, Alien Director's Cut, Aliens, and Aliens Special Edition.

It looked fine to me, but I wasn't watching all that closely, to be honest.

I haven't watched it yet, but I haven't heard of any reviewers complaining about it. Sounds like Jeunet being petty because he wasn't involved.

Agreed.
I have to say, after watching them I think Alien looked a lot better than Aliens. Neither has ever looked better !
I will still watch the other two. My son needs to know the history did not begin with AvP.
