Gone is 60 sec. - Blu-ray Forum

My local BB made the mistake of putting out early. So I grabed it watched and it is a keeper!!! If you live in Madison, WI the BB on the west side has it in stock and out for sale. Great PQ quality and great SQ. Love the Shelby GT.

Sounds great! I can't wait for Tuesday... I also can't wait to see the disc details for this newest wave of Buena Vista BDs... maybe they are all AVC? Hopefully someone can get some experience with the codec.

PurpleAardvark · 10-16-2006, 05:23 AM

How do you tell which codec they use? Either way it was great AVC or MPEG2. Can't wait to see what high def writes on this one. In the opening they show previews for Pirates of the Caribian as well. When does that come out?

With the Samsung player, there is no way to tell which codec it was used. The movie has to be put into a BD computer or the studio has to announce the specs.

Pirates doesn't have a release date yet, but I saw the preview on Dinosaur and it did look good. I'm hoping for a December release for Pirates, as BV hasn't announced their December wave of titles.

You really do live close to me.

I'm in Janesville, about 40 miles south of Madison.

PurpleAardvark · 10-16-2006, 10:17 PM

Do you know a couple down there, Eric and Shela? The other question is did you get this forum disgn from a guy named Dave. His site looks like this but with different colors. www.captivereefing.com Yah you are close to me. I live in Cross Plains, the second biggest speed trap in WI.

Don't know Eric and Shela. I just moved to this area from Milwaukee 2 months ago. Iceman and/or Marwin would know the answer to your forum design question. I just moderate. I played no part in this site's creation.

What's the first biggest speed trap in WI? Hancock? My uncle got a ticket for going 1 frickin' mile over the speed limit there!

PurpleAardvark · 10-16-2006, 11:30 PM

Ding, Ding, ding we have a winner, #1 in the US for Speed trap. Haddock. Cross Plains PD is a bunch of rednecks with something to prove. They pulled me over for doing 33 in a 30. That guy has pulled me over 3 times. I am just waiting (and so is my lawyer) for him to give me a ticket. Anyways there are some good people down there. If you are in the madison area I work at the milio's near the manards on the west side. Morning manager other than that I am always out doing fish tank serivce for my bussiness. You think this hobby is bad, you can sink $5000- $6000 into a salt water tank real quick.

Sorry about that.

My bad. sorry new topic title, Gone in 60 sec. and sorry for talking about madison. LOL

This movie is yet another guilty pleasure of mine. That newer DVD they put out not too long ago really looked great on upconverted DVD so I have high hopes for this BD.

ProvenFlipper · 10-17-2006, 04:53 PM

Chad confirmed in a thread at AVS that Gone in 60 Seconds, Brothers Grimm and Glory Road are all AVC. Dark Water and The Haunted Mansion are both MPEG2.

BTBuck1 · 10-17-2006, 04:55 PM

I've looked at 2 local Targets and can't find any. Are they everywhere, at some stores only or just online?
