It's not on BD, or even announced for preorder, yet, is it? I'd buy it, too.

Someone on Play.com liked it: link

this film was great to start off with but the BD version is - in a single word - STUNNING. The level of detail you get gives you the feeling of being right there on the mountainside. The cinematography in this movie is what HD was made for. Well worth the money.

It's region B not A (not 1 ). Check this link. At the top you can switch for which region you want to check.

Exactly. It's a great, extremely well-made movie with award-winning performances from both actors.

Did you ever stop to consider that maybe the MOVIE made him sick, not homosexuality?

Doomsday made me

I think you are being presumptious and rude without knowing for certain what his comment was directed toward.

I guess love is when your infatuated with someone and then screw everyone you can to prove it.

That's great that you don't like the movie, good for you, but your one single "" came across as if you were just homophobic and wanted to post in a Brokeback Mountain thread just to bash it.

Brokeback Mountain isn't actually perfect, and I know where you're coming from. It is a great love story, but it does have some minor flaws. At the end, it felt like Ennis wasn't as sad as he would or should've been about Jack's death. Didn't show much emotion, especially when he'd shown a lot of emotion to Jack early on in the movie. That part annoyed me. But for the most part, I think it's great cinema.

And to those other homophobes in the thread, I'm not going to argue with you at all, you are the way you are, either by choice or from parents forcing you to be like that, I just...feel sorry for you. I'm not saying you necessarily are, but I really feel sorry for some people who think all gay people are like the annoying overly gay guys you see on TV. I like dudes, I'm bi, and if you must know I have a preference over guys, but I'm not going to go tell the whole world that. I like to think I act like a normal person when I'm not sharing my love for movies, horror movies, blu-ray, dvds, tvs, ps3s, texas chainsaw massacre, evil dead, kill bill, lion king. And a lot of gay people are like that as well.

So if you want to be homophobic and irrationally hate gays, then it's up to you, but this thread just isn't the place for that. Do you think I quite honestly give a flying yuck if you hate people like me for being born the way they are?

Ok gentlemen...This thread is about the PQ for a movie. Lets all respect each other and our passion for movies, and move on from there.

well ok, before this gets over blown, I apologize for the if it offended you. I'm an adult and a parent so don't want to send the wrong message. I didn't like the movie and only watched it because a friend recommended it. I think Jake is a great actor and loved him in October sky, and its a sad loss with Heath. Just saw the movie as shock value more than story.

Anyone who was shocked by this film needs to get out in the real world more.
