Spreading Blu Cheer this Year! - Blu-ray Forum

ScarredLungs · 12-21-2009, 09:30 PM

We always have threads about what we want and what we are getting. I thought this thread would be a good idea.

In what ways have you spread blu cheer this year?

Blu-rays (That I've bought in the last 3 weeks)
Live free or Die hard and Equilibrium -- Bought for my brother
Wizard of Oz -- Bought for my Mom
Bourne Trilogy -- Bought for a friend
Nightmare Before Christmas -- Bought for a friend
Coraline -- Bought for a Friend

What blu-ray movies, or players have you bought this Holiday season for someone else?

SilverFireshot · 12-21-2009, 09:32 PM

Got my parents a PS3 near the beginning of the year and got my mom Across the Universe for her birthday.

JaseT · 12-21-2009, 11:51 PM

There are blu's spread out all over my room and it makes me cheery. Does that count?

Sagacious Koreo · 12-21-2009, 11:53 PM

I've only bought one and that was Day After Tomorrow for my dad. I remember hearing him say, "Hey, this movie would look good on Bluray." So that pretty much sealed the deal for me.

Polygon · 12-21-2009, 11:57 PM

I got the Proposal for my Mom.

My parents and I are the only ones in the family with a BD player. It's kind of sad.

Propellarhead9 · 12-22-2009, 12:15 AM

I bought Freddy vs Jason for a friend

tke344 · 12-22-2009, 04:50 AM

I am getting a Blu-Ray player this year for Christmas. Not sure what brand or anything but I know I have the following movies coming for sure (I love telling people about the Target 5 dollar deal and my siblings are horrible at keeping secrets. I also bought two in anticipation):

Resident Evil
Donnie Darko
Napoleon Dynamite
The Wedding Singer
Bruno
Speed
Reservoir Dogs

So I am pretty excited. Not a bad start to my blu collection

jedi209 · 12-22-2009, 05:02 AM

my parents got my brother and his family a 42" LG tv for christmas and a LG bd390 for his birthday (belated). which is great because those things my brother and wife never would have bought for themselves. to start their collection they got: tdk (for the adults), up, monsters inc., gi joe, and the sisterhood of the traveling pants movies for my niece.

that1guystudios · 12-23-2009, 03:28 AM

Bought my little Sister the Coraline gift set.
Bought my big sister How I Met Your Mother, Season 4 on Blu.

Bought my future mother in law the Insignia wireless Netflix enabled blu-ray player. She loves it!

Rinzler · 12-23-2009, 03:36 AM

Well I got gifts from my parents early because I would be away from home christmas day, they got me Wizard of Oz emerald edition, The Nightmare Before Christmas and A Bugs Life. I got I, Robot and Batman Begins super early. I will post what I get from the rest of the family on Xmas eve.

nick1091 · 12-23-2009, 04:53 PM

Got the Mrs. the Marley & Me/Princess Bride two-pack. Would be happy to spread more Blu cheer but we're the only ones in my family with a Blu-Ray player.

Jwilly019 · 12-23-2009, 05:29 PM

Instead of ornaments, I've hung Blu-ray's on my tree. How's that?

MikeZ. · 12-23-2009, 05:53 PM

My son & I do for each other ALL YEAR...don't feel we need a calendar to tell us when to feel like showing our love, or sharing by way of a present. With that said, he gave me RAMBO (the 7.1 blew my mind), I gave him HEAT (my copy made him envious, it's so superior in PQ & AQ ).

vegeta88 · 12-23-2009, 06:44 PM

I have been hosting movie nights at my apartment for the past several months; sometimes it is at my parents house so I bring my PS3 all the way there to show Blu-ray movies. Apparently they liked it because my parents and my sister and her husband just got Blu-ray players for Christmas. I bought The Hangover for my sister for Christmas.

Spreading the Blus

V.I.N.CENT · 12-23-2009, 07:19 PM
