I was thinking about picking about some Comedy's soon. I just was wondering which one's you have enjoyed on Blu?

Blu Titan · 12-30-2008, 01:26 AM

Tropic Thunder was very funny. Just watched it last night.

No, when did I ever mention "Best" in my thread?

Colglizity · 12-30-2008, 01:37 AM

Wedding Crashers tomorrow... I'm picking it up

NoQuestion · 12-30-2008, 01:40 AM

Superbad is hilarious, I still watch it from time to time

Way to contribute to the thread, champ.

Comedies are definitely a genre that needs a bit of boost on blu though. That being said, Superbad and Talladega Nights are pretty decent.

I thought the bucket list was good !

nolfoc · 12-30-2008, 01:30 AM

waiting, elf, old school, super troopers, scary movie, and 50 first dates all look good on blu (only ones ive seen so far, plus i own these so i know off hand).. 50 first dates is probably the most dull in terms of PQ; the rest look pretty good i really enjoyed these movies getting transfered to blu...off hand superbad, tropic thunder and knocked up i want to pick up. ive read 40 year old virgins PQ is pretty dull, but ill probably still winde up still buying it

Waiting & 50 First Dates look horrible for being Blu-ray releases. Waiting is a DNR waxy fest and 50 First Dates is HD light, looks more like a upconvert with a touch of EE

The 40-Year-Old Virgin is another waxy title with a lot of edginess from all the EE but I love the movie....

Superbad is fine.. it has a softer, over saturated look but it's the director wanted.. a solid release overall

Tropic Thunder and Knocked Up look 'great' IMO... buy them before The 40-Year-Old Virgin

tunerfreak87 · 12-30-2008, 02:19 AM

All of Apatow's films...40yoV, Knocked Up, Superbad, Forgetting Sarah Marshall and soon to be Pineapple Express are all great.

quexos · 12-30-2008, 02:24 AM

I think I enjoyed Click with Adam Sandler.

i said 50 first dates looks the softest... didn't I? and i thought waiting looked pretty good, wax was definitly an issue, but their probably never going to double dip that title, so what we see is what were getting...

Well it was further down in my queue but Good Luck Chuck was being sent to me by Netflix. I don't think anyone mentioned it here and I guess I should know what I'm in for unfortunately. Oh well!

And now, to repeat a revealing thread from '07--
The official list of Blu-ray comedies that DO NOT have Jack Black, Seth Rogen, Ben Stiller, Adam Sandler and/or Will Ferrell in them.
(Meaning, they're the comedies your parents should have taught you about when you were growing up, back when actual movie comedy existed, and now strangers will have to force 70's-80's film literacy down your embarrassed throat for you.):

----
- Batman: the Movie ('66)
- Being There
- Blazing Saddles
- A Christmas Story
- Coming to America
- Life of Brian
- Men in Black
- Romancing the Stone
- Trading Places
- Young Frankenstein

(And coming in '09:
- Groundhog Day
- The Pink Panther ('64)
- The Seven Year Itch
- This is Spinal Tap )

And the next person to say "Super" or "bad" gets dogpiled and dragged around the gym track--

Where your parents and the demise of local television failed you, the older generation is determined to make up for the difference.
