Three self-imposed rules to keep me out of debt:
1. Always watch a movie before hand before buying it on Blu-ray. If you liked it, buy it. If you wanted to like it but didn't, watch it again and hope your opinion changes.
2. The movie must get the equivalent of 80% rating in picture quality from a decent looking website. (At first, it was just highdefdigest that I got my reviews from until they gave The Longest Day a 50%. Then I started looking here until they gave another favourite movie of mine less than 80%. Now, pretty much any website I find that looks respectable works. User reviews don't count.)
3. Keep yourself at a pace of just one new Blu-ray purchase a week; this includes movies, television shows, and PS3 games.
Call me OCD but I like my system.... it's just a little painful having to wait around for someone to review this holiday classic..... I'll probably buy it tomorrow, but not open it until there's a review (hopefully good). If not, then it'll have to be returned.
