*Runs downstairs and checks release dates*Can anyone recommend some good ski porn that is available in high def? There seems to be plenty of mainstream porn on blu ray, but not so much for ski porn! I want to see all those powder crystals shimmering in their full glory.
I was poking around on Amazon and all I can find on blu ray is "Steep" and "Warren Miller's Playground". Between the two, "Steep" looks like the only one that's actually in high def since it was released recently. The other one has a review where the guy complains only 60% of the movie is actually in high def.
I guess the market is so small, they probably won't re-issue many of the older movies on blu-ray for a while, if ever.

Both 2007. HD or not depends on the cameras, not the release date. My guess is that the portions not in HD were limited by digital helmet cams and the like that weren't capable of doing cinematographic quality work in HD. If segments as a whole were SD, then it was probably a choice to change between HD and SD with segments so as to not keep flipping back and forth every time they changed cameras. Old film is actually easier to get into HD due to the fact that it's an analogue medium - its technically infinite resolution, not limited to the CCD/CMOS in the camera.
