For the love of BLU.

I was in Best Buy (yes, you, you idiots) yesterday and they had a setup to show off BLU.

Guess what they were showing.

Cars? No.
Ratatouille? No.
Pirates? No.
Planet Earth? No.
Anything else that's at least 4 star video? Nope.

They were showing House of Flying Daggers.

Are you kidding me?

It looked like complete CRAP!

While I enjoyed the film, the video (as you might know) is about 2 stars at best.

I about puked. It looked like a SP VHS copy on the TV.

Luckily, I've become friends with someone there (thanks to my 3-a-week visits). He went to management to be put in charge of the display (I sold him on BLU).

For all that is holy, check your retail stores and make sure they are showing good movies. It's up to us.
