Fixed and unless I'm mistaken it doesn't even have bdj interactive content does it? I'm sure plenty of people in this thread will readily bend over for sony and just wait till they implement drm. Woo Hoo good times indeed!

I was playing around with the calibration on my TV while watching my Crank Blu-Ray and as I adjusted the sharpness I noticed several vertical lines, about an inch apart, running vertical down the image. I had to get in fairly close to notice them but now I see them no matter what. They were all across the image from top to bottom of the screen and I've never seen anything like it before. This only happens with Crank so I wonder if it is a problem with the disc itself?
Anyone ever noticed this?

Excellent job from Universal on Hot Fuzz. I haven't picked it up yet and I probably will. It's just that British comedies don't go well with me.

Sounds like your TV has vertical banding. Try to switch between 720p and 1080i to see if you can still see them.
What TV model do you have?

Yeah my friend also has a Sharp LCD (it's not an Aquos though) and he noticed vertical banding in some movies and especially when going into the Playstation Store when the page is loading and everything is grey. He was running it in 1080i but on 720p he couldn't see them.
Hope it works for you.

My roommate told me yesterday that he's going to buy the 360 HD-DVD Player for our room this year. Pretty sweet.

The Warner Bros. store is offering 25% off all orders (including preorders) through August 6th with promo code TVWS, and free shipping on all orders over $60. Their prices are already discounted a bit below MSRP, so there are loads of deals, espeically on HD/BR releases, available with this sale -- AND they always ship early, so you'll have new releases nearly a week before the actual street dates.
I ordered:
2001: A Space Odyssey: Special Edition HD-DVD
Price $14.96 (Savings $4.99)
Eyes Wide Shut: Special Edition HD-DVD
Price $14.96 (Savings $4.99)

I just saw it recently and it was surprisingly good. I was completely indifferent about the other two, however I enjoyed this one for a couple of reasons; which I could more adequately relate once you've seen it for yourself.

Two questions.
When is Paprika coming out on BD in North America? Is there going to be more anime in high def coming soon?
Anyone in Canada order online? I checked Amazon.ca and the prices are very similar to Wal-Mart/Futureshop/Best Buy. I think the bigger savings are there for Americans. With shipping too, I won't be saving much if anything at all.

SOLD!
Holy Cow, great prices and movies!!
BTW, for all you guys waiting for DJK to pay up on his 300 bet, The HD-DVD version has definitely sold better than the BR one the last couple days at my store...so keep your fingers crossed.
+1 300 HD-DVD here.
My brother bought it at Best Buy, where he saw the 300 shelf and no HD-DVD version (BD version was there though). He told me that for some reason it was on a different shelf. The thing is, he was about to get the BD version, but I told him of the HD-DVD's advantages, so good thing he looked.

They charge when the item ships.
You're actually going to pay $30 more for that dumb briefcase packaging? The regular 5-disc HD version is $22.96 with the discount.

Troy Director's Cut. First Blu-ray cover. Finally this damn movie hits Blu-ray. I actually really enjoyed the original. Except for the cheesy Brad Pitt love angle, it was pretty good.
Comes with Dolby True HD, which of course makes my day. :lol

Jesus christ I can't take it anymore, you're an embrarassment to Sony fans. I didn't say anything in the other thread about movie dissapointments of 2007 when you only listed Universal movies but this is getting annoying. Seriously what's the difference between you and stupid xbox fanboys that only troll PS3 games? Yes Universal is making stupid decisions but bashing a great movie just because it's from Universal is ridiculous.
