Bullseye · 11-09-2007, 04:06 PM

I decided to call into the local store today. Been a while as i have been buying mostly from amazon and sendit. Anyway right in front of me as you enter the shop was HPoTP. Still haven't seen this movie so i will watch it tomorrow. Have the other four on order from amazon.com.

Oh yeah also picked up Meet the Robinsons and 2001 and the Shining were waiting for me at home.

WOW COOL!!! I think you will really enjoy HPoTP. I was able to see it on a IMAX Screen and WOW let me tell you was so cool and the movie is really good. Also 2001 and The Shinning are GREAT on BD I have them as well. The PQ are incredible on both of them. I can't wait till I receive the Harry Potter on BD. I have to wait a bit since Im in the USA. I have them on order from Amazon.com.
Enjoy!

I'll be waiting like you for the other four. But since i wasn't able order the fifth movie from amazon.com i said to myself "Buy it"

JJ · 11-09-2007, 04:18 PM

Im still debating on whether I should get the box set or all 5 individually - the 5 individuals would look better on my rack - and does anyone really watch extras?

If it were the 7 film box set i would say go for it but these box sets of incomplete films are a waste of time IMO.

CptGreedle · 11-09-2007, 04:20 PM

I saw it in an IMax screen.. and HATED IT. Not the movie. the screen.
or rather.. my seat!
I was off one one side and down low... I got the BIGGEST HEADACHE looking at that and my neck started to hurt from looking at the sides of the screen. Plus it had no 3D at my IMAX, which is prolly a good thing cause 3D would have killed me.
Never again shall i go into an IMax screen without being in the middle.

Couldn't you just remove the individual films from the boxed set for your rack?

I have the other four on order from amazon.com. Cheaper from the US. The Pound - Dollar rate is 2 to 1 so these are cheap as chips for you.

Quite expensive from amazon.co.uk

personally i hate all the harry potter films they take away so much potential from the books it's disappointing.

But only on the audio? I haven't seen any reports of separate video encodes of the main feature.

Giyomu · 11-13-2007, 07:12 AM

I'll get those tomorrow for the french release!!!!

I am so fan they included japanese subtitles

with english audio tracks it s perfect for my languages capacities

The Laughing Man · 11-09-2007, 06:30 PM

I wasn't that impressed w/ the box set.

Aside, from being outdated as soon as the next movie comes out, none of the special features are that special. They're mainly those 'First Look' type of shows that air on HBO and other channels. As such, they're teasers for the movie coming out, not really anything behind the scenes.

Plus, you know the 7 movie set will pretty cool.
