Is it worth it for me just to buy the brosnan bond films on blu?

- i have every bond on dvd (the ultimate collection)
- i have CR and QOS on blu

is it worth buying all 20 other films in blu, or should i just purchase brosnans era..since they are the more recent bonds.

Are you worried about the picture quality on the earlier Bonds? If so, no need, as the awesome Lowry restorations make them almost look better than the newer ones.

purchase your favorites. Simple as that. Asli License to kill looks phenomanal, better than the two brosnans out so far.

Purchase the GOOD Bonds. Not the Brosnan ones.

Ya like Moonraker and The Man with the Golden Gun. Brosnan's best was Goldeneye.

Only upgrade them if you really like them. But I will tell you this, the Connery 007 films that are out so far are the biggest upgrade and well worth it. Just like the Ultimate Editions breathed new life into the older Bond movies with their better transfers, so too do the Blu-rays improve over the UEs.

which ones do you like the most

problem solved.

me personally, i'll buy goldeneye when it hits blu, and thats it for the pre-craig bonds. i have the ultimate edition dvds as well.

The Brosnan bond films aren't THAT bad , but i do agree they are no Casino Royale or Quantum Of Solace. I have The World Is Not Enough and Die Another Day ( $10 a piece at Target a while back ) and don't regret the purchase!

I own the first three Bond films: Dr. No, From Russia With Love, and Goldfinger, along with Casino Royale and Quantum of Solace. Wow, the old ones are amazing. The quality is spectacular. I spent more time admiring that than watching the film. lol I'm very much looking forward to completing the entire Bond collection on blu.
