Australia: Land Beyond Time (IMAX) [Blu-ray]
$19.99
Once again, an IMAX documentary where the only thing that seems to matter are pretty pictures. While the image quality is superb it's the only real redeeming feature. There's no real exploration of the ecology of the Outback, there isn't much discussion of the wildlife (yay, kangaroos, yay perenties). What discussion there is is basic, repetitive and about on par with what you'd get in a 3rd or 4th grade science class. It's amazingly pretty, but there's nothing else there. It's like a screen saver for your TV basically.
The subtitles were also horrible; words were misspelled, just flat out missing, sometimes out of sync with the audio... I use subtitles because my hearing is so/so, and that was a real pain for me.
