Number 23 was one of the worst things ever created by mankind. A fantastic cinematic disaster. We could have dropped this on Nagasaki instead of the A-Bomb and it would have produced similar results.

Contact and Ghost ship Day 1.

Hmm. I liked it. Not LOVED it, mind you. But liked it.

Can't WAIT for Contact though!!! Imagine the rumble of the you-know-what...

Adam.C · 06-09-2009, 10:46 PM

OOO, Ill be picking up Contact!

Grevlin · 06-09-2009, 11:04 PM

Contact!

The last third should be jaw dropping.

Zyclone · 06-09-2009, 11:05 PM

im looking forward to ghost ship its a fun flick

now we just need the house on haunted hill remake please

onehothemi · 06-09-2009, 11:42 PM

The number 23, was like a horrific sin city wanabe, the crazy lady in the apt was the best part and that was it. Ghost ship, the first time around was great in my opinion, great twist and finish, I think with the hd content you can enjoy the environment the characters are in more. contact is a waste.

sfmarine · 06-09-2009, 11:52 PM

Ghost Ship was a nice flick. Especially the beginning!

owa · 06-09-2009, 11:58 PM

Definitely looking forward to picking up Contact and Ghost Ship. Don't think I've seen Number 23.

AKORIS · 06-10-2009, 12:01 AM

haven't seen NUMBER 23

but I'm really looking forward to CONTACT-- hope they release a nice
transfer--

GHOST SHIP was not great but still entertaining and I'll buy that as well!

alfred1212 · 06-10-2009, 12:06 AM

Ghost Ship for me.

Steve · 06-10-2009, 01:00 AM

I'll end up getting Ghost Ship when the price is low enough.

FindYourWay · 06-10-2009, 01:13 AM

Ghost Ship for sure.

Adam.C · 06-10-2009, 01:21 AM

I dont think I ever saw ghost ship. Was it really that good?

Rob J in WNY · 06-10-2009, 01:25 AM

Contact, originally written by the late Carl Sagan, is one of my most favorite films of all time.

I may buy it at the release price, which is pretty rare for me at this point.

Thanks for the heads up, OP.

jc480 · 06-10-2009, 01:26 AM

Contact 4tw

Kage99 · 06-10-2009, 01:35 AM

Yes - finally - Contact!

I still have the original Warner snapper - backed it up on my PC years ago in case the disc got rotten. Couldn't do without that movie and can't wait to see it on Blu!

Good is relative.
It's good fun, but nothing extraordinarily good. It's a horror movie that is decent though.
