Are you jealous? - Blu-ray Forum

gand41f · 08-17-2007, 06:49 AM

Interesting thread on AVS that hasn't turned into a pissing match even after 1 week:

http://www.avsforum.com/avs-vb/showthread.php?t=886318

To be honest, I'm only interested in Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind. The rest I can live without, although I really hope we can get V soon.

On the other hand, if I'm on the other side of the fence, I'll be dying for at least

Casino Royale
Closer
Kingdom of Heaven
Black Hawk Down
Chicken Little
Layer Cake

not even counting the movies coming out the rest of the year (Dracula, Memoir of a Geisha, CE3K, Cars, etc.).

I guess I'm saying I'm happy to be here.

enjoy

they do have a few titles i'd like but I can live with that... for now, all I need is V For Vendetta but now that they announced it WILL be out then i'm happy just knowing that and alot of movies till then will hold me over when it actually is released.

i'll list the ones I want tho I guess, V For Vendetta, Constantine, Frightners, the Bone Collector, the Adam Sandler films(still questioning if they'd actually look good in HD tho?) and Van Helsing

thats all that really comes to my mind right now... hmm...

While there are some Uni titles I would like, I can honestly say I'm not jealous with their recent track record. Shooter was a really good movie but I didn't purchase it since they didn't provide lossless audio. I certainly wouldn't buy any of Uni's titles that didn't have lossless audio or that was given one of their 3 star transfers. The same thing goes for Warner, I'm not buying any of their HD DVD ports ( I caved on 300 but it at least had lossles audio).

I feel like some of the studios just don't get it, we didn't spend tons on our home theaters to watch above average source material.

There are a few titles from Uni I want, but mostly stuff I dont mind waiting for. The only two eating away at me are Hulk and Breakfast Club. I would LOVE to own both of these, as they are up there with some of my favorite movies of all time.

me: Children of Men & Friday Night Lights and I'll be satisfied

Serenity would be the first one. Bourne, Kevin Smith movies and Hot Fuzz/Shawn of the Dead would probably have all found their way into my collection if they were Blu. I am impressed with how civil that discussion has remained.

Interesting how many HD-DVD guys are saying "after reading these, it realized I made the right choice"

Is there no end to the self delusion and rationalization.
