BluRay Blues

So I finally hunkered down and got myself a Bluray play...uh, I mean PS3. So I was wondering if any one knows how I can get the movies to play in that "soap opera-y quasi-3Dish" view that they have set up at the stores.

My cousin has his set up and he can't get his to look that way. Is it the TV? The connection? The year the movie came out? Some sort of fanangalin' that needs to be done in settings?

I using a 42" Samsung LCD TV and HDMI connections but the only BluRay movie I seen on it is Terminator 2. They were some scenes where it kinda look like it was gonna do the effect but it never happened.

Any help?

well, I found out its my TV...something about it NOT having Auto Motion Plus. Seems this is the only was a Samsung can do the "soap opera" effect.

Time to shop for a new TV...maybe a OLED with 3D? :)

Get a Sony Bravia TV. That's what I have and it is phenominal. Don't trust a 3D tv unless you know for sure. If you've seen it in action. But just the sound of it sounds like a bad move.

SOME OF THE OLDER BLU-RAY MOVIES ARE NOT FULL QUALITY. I JUST BOUGHT LOCK, STOCK AND TWO SMOKING BARRELS ON BLU-RAY AND IT LOOKED LIKE A REGULAR DVD THAT WAS PLAYING. I'VE GOT A PS3 AS WELL AND THE ONLY THING YOURS SHOULD BE HOOKED UP TO IS THE HDMI CABLE FROM THE CONSOLE TO THE HDMI PORT ON YOUR TV. FROM THE PS3 MENU YOU NEED TO GO TO DISPLAY SETTINGS AND MAKE SURE IT'S IN 1080p NOT 1080i. YOUR SYSTEM AND TV SHOULD SUPPORT THAT. NEXT, GO DOWN TO RGB FULL RANGE (HDMI) AND CHANGE THAT TO FULL. NOW WHEN YOUR MOVIE IS PLAYING, ON THE TV REMOTE THERE SHOULD BE A DESPLAY BUTTON, PRESS THAT, AND IT SHOULD BE PLAYING AT A 16:9 1080P HD. ALSO ANOTHER BIG KEY IS THE PICTURE QUALITY YOUR TV IS SET TO. THERE ARE 4 CHOICES FROM STANDARD, CINEMA, CUSTOM AND VIVID. MAKE SURE IT'S ON VIVID. IT'S THE BRIGHTEST THE TV GOES THEREFORE THE MORE COLOR AND CLARITY YOU WILL BE ABLE TO SEE. AS YOUR WATCHING YOUR MOVIE YOU CAN TOGGLE BETWEEN THE 4 AND SEE HOW MUCH BETTER IT IS. IF YOU REALLY WANT TO BLOW YOUR BLU-RAY EXPERIENCE OUT OF THE WATER, YOU NEED TO RENT/BUY THE NEWEST SPEED RACER THAT CAME OUT ABOUT A YEAR AGO. PHENOMINAL PICTURE. AND ALSO MAKE SURE YOUR PS3 IS CONNECTED TO THE INTERNET, YOU WILL HAVE TO UPDATE IT CONSTANTLY FOR NEWER GAMES/MOVIES.
