The Digital Bits部份內容(英文):

Attack of the Clones is also the first full-length, live action film shot on high-definition video to arrive on DVD with a straight-digital transfer. No film was involved here. The anamorphic widescreen DVD image was created directly from the final digital master of the film. And the result is absolutely spectacular. The pallet here is rich and expansive. From the most lush, vibrant hues to the subtle tones of skin and mist, this is breathtaking color. There's a smooth, natural character to the image that I don't recall seeing theatrically, even in digital projection. Contrast is very good (although not quite as good as you'd get from a film-originated image) and there's sufficient detailing in darker picture areas - again more than I remember seeing in the theater (but again not quite as good as a film print would exhibit). There's almost zero compression artifacting visible and edge-enhancement is non-existent. Being a digitally originated and mastered image, there's not a spec, nick or fleck anywhere - it's absolutely rock solid all the way through. If it's possible for a movie to look better in my home theater, short of high definition, I'll be left babbling and dumbfounded. Simply put, this is the best looking DVD video I have ever seen. And it absolutely demands to be viewed on a high-quality, anamorphic display. If you've been looking for an excuse to buy that new widescreen digital TV... here it is. No kidding. It's THAT good.

As with the Episode I DVD, the audio is also absolutely top-notch. The sonic wizardry of Ben Burtt and Gary Rydstrom is fully evident in this aggressive 5.1 EX mix. The soundstage is nicely wide up front, deep and enveloping front to back and smooth all around. The surround channels deliver terrific ambiance to create the various sonic environments of the film, and are also extremely active with panning and directional effects. The EX rear speakers fill in wonderfully and make a noticeable difference in the listener's experience of the film. Dialogue is always clean, John Williams's score sounds wonderful and the .LFE is very active with low frequency reinforcement. Audio highlights obviously include the speeder and asteroid chases, as well as the end battle. But my favorite sound effect from the film was the sound (or lack thereof) of the seismic charges Jango fires at Obi-Wan's starfighter. The "audio black hole" (as Burtt describes the effect) is immediately striking... and then the blast wave races towards you, envelopes you and then goes groaning away behind you. A really incredible sensation of 3D space is created. Amazing.
