I won't be going anywhere near LOTR until they release the extended versions.

I hope everyone that plans to get Armageddon and Tombstone knows thats you can buy both together for $31.98 instead of $20.99 each on Amazon.

Only one that interests me is Saving Private Ryan. I'll gladly pass on Avatar, LOTR, and the rest.

Chordata · 03-17-2010, 07:53 PM

Tombstone and LOTR for me.

Maybe you're thinking of the "May to be the best month ever for Blu-ray sales?" thread...

coolmilo · 03-17-2010, 07:55 PM

It's going to be a good month no doubt. However, the BD movies need to be priced right before anyone can expect huge sales.

Like many others, I just build up a want list and buy them as prices fall to reasonable prices. For me, reasonable means pricing BD movies similar to the 2009 holiday season ($16 to $20 for new releases and less than $15 for catalog titles). The quality must also be there too.

I am very worried that LoTR will be DNR'd to death based on some discussions I read last year. I am hoping for a good encode however.

My wallet will be crying, so will I!

It's better dealing with this than the junk personally though that came out in January and February!

Solidus911A · 03-17-2010, 08:10 PM

I'm definitely gonna be picking up:

Avatar
Minority Report
Tombstone
Armageddon

I can wait on LOTR I currently have the extended versions on DVD and would rather have them on Blu-Ray as well. But I must say Avatar and Tombstone are a definite must for me. "I'll be your huckleberry"

Lucy Diamond · 03-17-2010, 08:12 PM

I'm down for Dune and Zoe Saldana with a tail.

I will like Avatar much better when I can skip the crap.

The weird thing is all three of them are coming from different distributors. Ong Bak was from Fox, Ong Bak 2 was from Magnolia, and The Protector is from Vivendi aka Dragon Dynasty.

Looks like 1 movie for me. Bad L. I think I will be okay this month.
