I wonder if that'll be the cover. I hope so.


I hate to admit it but
I am so buying this and I already own the R2 DVD version ^^;

I liked Sky High, too.
Especially the part where
the kid discovers his super strength and his dad gets him an Xbox.
In the theatre when that happened I yelled out
"I get it now! He can lift it!"
:D

:lol
Sky high wasn't bad I liked it too

Hey, companies that aren't Fox? Look at how Fox is doing its cover art for Blu-Ray, AND COPY THEM! Stop adding goofy-ass graphics that cock up the cover art!


And besides the covers (which are awesome BTW) ...


... also copy using VC1 or AVC ... AND 5.1 or greater DTS Master Audio!!!!!

A couple Kubrick films listed.


Me = very happy!
Read my post. All the announced Kubrick films were annouced alongside standard SE's all of which have gone missing. Do not expect them on any HD format for a while.

I'm not sure that is much of a confirmation ...
 
That FFVII movie was an absolute piece of shit. Man, I was expecting more...was I ever wrong.

The _DVD_ looked awesome on our KDSR50XBR1, but the movie itself was crap. Didn't make sense....jumped all over the place...stupid ass, confusing as hell storyline.

Yes, I'm bitter. :)

Yea, FF7 sucked! It was pure visual eye candy. Fight scenes rocked and that's all.

This is one movie I'm really looking forward to. It was my first memory of a movie and that's why this flick holds a special place.

maybe you had a wrong expectation. I knew what I was expecting. I wasn't going for any storyline kinda crap, it's a Sci-fi, it's CG movie. So I bought it for the effects, the fights. You gotta give the props where its dues. CloudvSephi has to be one of the best sword fights ever. Even better than the wire-fu movies. At least CloudvSephi fight looks natural, but yet fast and mind boggling. The Bahamut fight kicks ass as well
 
wheres it say cheapest? I see "competitively priced".. with what? other standalones or ps3?
if this comes in at under $500, that'd be awesome

Standalone obviously. No way will it be cheaper than PS3, maybe cheaper than 60gb. And $499 is a good realistic price.
 
Just so you guys know, Amazon is running a sweet BluRay/HD-DVD deal right now!!!


Purchase 3 BluRay/HD-DVD titles, and get 10% this purchase ... and 10% off all BluRay/HD-DVD purchases FOR THE NEXT YEAR!!!

you don't need HDMI to watch bluray movies, right? Just for 1080P?

correct. HDMI for the FULL EXTREME JIZZ YOUR PANTS effect. Basic component cables and a HDTV for the realistic (and still very nice) effect. :)

FWIW, Digital Bits recently reiterated that those Kubrick films are still getting their SEs, but they've been pushed into '07.
 
Japanese Hitch hikers has a rally shocking opening
artifcating like crazy - purple codec spaz outs - discoloured patches the lot

but only for the initial part then it's fine.

Innocence though... holy ****ing shit!
 
Well, I seen a Blu-ray sample disc last night on a Sony Bravia XBR 40-inch and Open Season's direct digital trailer. Just ridiculous.
 
skrew said:
those are my first blu-ray titles
congrats. :)

I'm one out of two with those. Still gotta pick up Kingdom of Heaven.
I forgot all about those 10 dollar rebates that came with the ps3, guess I can send one off now for Black Hawk Down. :P
 
Just picked up Kingdom of Heaven, Black Hawk Down and Superman Returns from Amazon.com. Got my US PS3 winging it's way to the UK, gotta love the weak dollar :D

This movie rocks! I thought it was basically a crappy version of Transporter, but it's actually really good.

50gb too. Coming soon.
Damn, looks like another one I must get. Enjoyed watching Crank.
:lol @ lil china (or was it chinatown) scene. ;)
 
Expect to see Batman Begins in 2007 :D

2007 is gonna be awesome for blu-ray

From the http://www.thedigitalbits.com, Bill Hunt mentioned “Meanwhile, Warner has informed me that the studio is committed to catching up with their Blu-ray Disc releases in 2007, so that all previously released HD-DVD titles will be available on Blu-ray as well, and future titles will be released on both formats simultaneously.”
 
DarkJediKnight said:
Didn't you always wanted to hear the following in DTS HD:

"Remembuh when I to'd you I'd keel you last? I lied"
"NO!! JENNYYYY"
"Let auf sum steem Bennet!!"

What about seeing those kickass cardboard cutout soldiers in HD? :lol

'jenny, i need to speak with your dad.'
'Yeh, got a warrant?'
'CHENNEH!'

Here's a controversial one. This one popped up in Spain. People are saying it's a hoax. Possibly. We'll see if any announcements are made at CES 2007 in Jan.

100% F-A-K-E

How the **** could ANYONE think that piece of shit cover is real? HOW? Are they retarded?
 
Alright, that's it. It's over. It's ****ing over. The format war is done.

Walked into a local shop of mine today to unexpectedly drop my jaw at what the guy's were playing on their gorgeous display set:

gitsinnocence.jpg


Two minutes in and that was it. Killer app confirmed. Megaton in the flesh.

I don't care what you think about the film
so long as you acknowledge the fact that it's one of the best films made in the last 25 years
, this is a must buy for every PS3 owner and HD loving individual on this board. No questions, no more discussion. Just buy it. Find a place to import ASAP. Hell, fly to Japan if need be. Just do it.
 
GITS2 is a phenomenal work of animation even in SDTV. Watching this in HDTV is just going to be unimaginable. Any idea if we will see this in the US?

Waht's the word on the quality of the transfer?
Because after Black Hawk Down and more importantly Kingdom of Heaven I'm very jaded. NOt going to buy the first release if its a shit transfer only to have to fork money over 8nmonthes down the line for a new one.
