I've just had the pleasure of watching the prequels and original films on my Blu-Ray HD boxset I picked up on a deal last week here in the UK thoughts? the prequels were stunning in HD, with incredible PQ and AQ, and I know many hate these prequels but I quite enjoy them the films themselves are...

I can only look at my immediate circle of friends and family here in the UK I am the only one to have invested in a Blu-Ray player, we all earn good money and like watching films, but they have not seen the need to make the investment? the rest of my friends and family have purchased...

sorry I am late to this party! but news of Star Wars on Blu-Ray is excellent for some strange reason this morning I was wondering if I owned Star Wars in HD and then remembered 6 DVDs sitting on my shelf I wondered "when will it be out in HD Blu-Ray?" and I have come back to Home...

I like the idea of it, but like Ronald above, I dislike the expiration of such totally agree the only DC I have ever activated was the excellent Star Trek reboot, on my PC at work, and watched a small portion of this film as I was intrigued by the process months later (during the...

I saw this for the first time on Saturday as a rental HD-Blu Ray containing the Director's Cut and thoroughly enjoyed the film and its crisp presentation   I missed this film in the cinema, because I assumed it was a re-hash of the Robin Hood story, but Ridley Scott's decision to do an...

I have alot of SD DVD films (400+), and have found it not worth trading in at my local exchange stores as currently I am not getting more than GBP£0.30-0.50 per title, which makes them a poor value trade in   I try to give any DVD titles I have upgraded from DVD to HD Blu-Ray to friends...

I watched BSG "Mini Series" for the 6th time last night, and thoroughly enjoyed it again! and of course I made sure to watch out for "Serenity" flying in the windows above the Doctor's surgery when the future Madam President is receiving news about her cancer loved Firefly / Serenity...

I always realised this about owning / viewing TV DVD collections - the sheer time it takes to watch an entire show which may run to 5-7 seasons... huge time commitment, whilst a good movie can be enjoyed in 1.5-2 hours on a spare evening personally I think a TV DVD show has to be...

TV on DVD is fantastic for anyone "late to the party" - who like me, missed alot of classic TV shows like 24, The Sopranos, The Wire, The Shield, reimagined BSG, The Unit, etc. It's great to pick up an entire show (especially one that is finished) and watch several episodes a night, over a...

Gone with the Wind excellent choice - I had never seen this, and was blown away by the sheer spectacle of this production! my new purchases? "Heartless" (Noel Clarke) "The League of extraordinary Gentlemen" (Sean Connery) "30 days of night" and a DVD release...

Reading as Ron made his way through the series reminded me of how great this show initially was- something I had a hard time doing in the wake of the finale and last season. Paul, this is the problem with BSG as a "complete" series - the ending is weak-sauce If I watch "The Wire" and...

I have to say I agree with you Ron about the last season. Like you my wife and I watched the entire series in a short period of time once it had finished it's run on TV. I felt the mini-series and the 1st and 2nd seasons were outstanding. Once they arrived at new Caprica for me at least the show...

"This was noted in my ." Michael, can I ask why is it so slow to load? It is something to do with Java?

just picked up "The Book of Eli" "Flyboys" and "Redbelt" (director: David Mamet) watched The Book of Eli (which I had seen in the cinema) and Flyboys, and found both a bit "lacking" something....especially The Book of Eli, on 2nd viewing at home

yeah i remember the snatch in the elevator well - took me completely by surprise :) totally agree with that - the person who was snatched was a "plant" in the group, but of course you did not realise that at the time! my buddy Nick and I were huge Alien junkies and took the train up to...

"Apollo 13" "War of the Worlds" (Spielberg) "Flags of our fathers"

I've reviewed over 60 Blu-rays for HTF and played at least 200 more, and the only disc that gave me trouble in a Panasonic BD-50 was Lionsgate's Daybreakers I had problems getting Daybreakers to run on my LG-BD370 standalone player - which is not connected to the internet as my PC is at...

I also preferred this to "The Road" which I saw first in the cinema, and then saw "The Book of Eli" some time later in the cinema I found The Book of Eli to be the superior film, and a much better watch with some excellent action scenes and more interesting, dynamic story

"The Pacific", a fantastic watch, cannot wait for the HD Blu-Ray boxset!!! this week? picked up, all at bargain prices: "The Godfather" Trilogy boxset "Speed" "Hell Ride" "Minority Report" "Deja Vu" (Denzel Washington)

today was a "good" day I got to work, after my day off yesterday and found 'Southland Tales' and 'Armageddon' both on Blu-Ray, waiting for me! happy viewing tonight, but which to watch first?

If WB isn't buying MGM outright, they should at least buy this title specifically. Then they can release a trilogy boxset and all will be right in the world :) damn straight!

"Southland Tales" on Blu from a US supplier through Amazon a film that many despise, but I absolutely love!

just got Guy Ritchie's "Snatch" on Blu great film, very funny, and looks great in HD

I have the UK release of Mad Max 2 (road warrior) on Blu-Ray and its one of the best presentations in my collection of 130+ HD Blu-Ray movies fantastic, and definitely worth a re-watch Mad Max 1 on Blu-Ray would get my wallet out straight away, as would Mad Max 3 : Beyond Thunderdome...

Blood Diamond

SPR on Blu-Ray is simply fantastic! I have watched it twice already since getting my copy the most visually impressive element on HD was *not* the beach scene at the start, which I had assumed would be the most stunning, but the scenes afterwards - as the Army moves off the beach specifically...

I agree with both of you - the Avatar 3D was very well done in that it was subtle and did not exhibit this depth of layers problem - is this down to the cameras developed for Avatar? compared to other films? or compared to films converted to "3D" in post-production - taken from an earlier...

Superman Returns Meserine parts 1 and 2 boxset

talking about technical stuff - do any forum members have a suggestion for me? my Blu-Ray player is an LG BD-370 with current firmware update (and I am using a LG 1080P display with HDMI lead) I setup the player to display 1080P, and usually watch Blu-Rays, but sometimes watch DVDs and Div-x...

You call the current 3D a 2D gimmick or trick. Well, that's what film has always been, a trick to fool the brain. There are no moving images up there on the screen, just a bunch of still images one after the other. Our brain turns them into movies. that's a good point (of course a "film" is...
