Format War: MUST have movies before Christmas - Blu-ray Forum

ghettosmurf72 · 09-26-2007, 04:50 AM

Just wondering which blu rays would have a huge impact on the format war before christmas. Also what movies are a must for you guys before Dec. 25?

Manco · 09-26-2007, 05:05 AM

My question is how does one join the site a year ago and now decide to make their first post today.

We're you out "experimenting" with HD-DVD? Came to your senses did you.

ghettosmurf72 · 09-26-2007, 05:10 AM

haha no way blu ray all the way, i actually waited 2 1/2 days for the ps3 as well. collection is 43 bd now but i usually just look at posts and go from there, but time to join my buddies in the forum haha.

Manco · 09-26-2007, 05:18 AM

WELCOME then! Glad to have you aboard mate. Thought you might have been a troll.

My current pre-order for Christmas season are.... Wyatt Earp, Deliverance, Spider-Man, POTC, Blade Runner, Close Encounters, Die Hard, and many others.

Waiting on Matrix, Sergio Leone Trio (Clint Eastwood spaghetti westerns), Dirty Harry

w_tanoto · 09-26-2007, 05:21 AM

here is what must buy for me:
- pirates 3
- ratatouille
- the simpson movie
- polar express

KidOmega123 · 09-26-2007, 05:30 AM

The franchises will probably do well.....some of which are exclusive to Blu....i.e Pirates 1-3, Oceans 11-13, Harry Potter 1-5, Spiderman 1-3, Die Hard 1-4.

Also I'd say Disney's animated offers Meet The Robinsons, Cars, & Ratatouille

You bet. Blu gonna kick some big time bootie this holiday season.

Welcome, Kid.

Oh, and don't forget Simpson movie, Blu-ray exclusive also.

pro-bassoonist · 09-26-2007, 05:59 AM

Harry Potter and the Kubrick films will be closely watched by Warner...for a good reason!

Pro-B

Right of Might · 09-26-2007, 06:52 AM

The most important purchase you can make this holiday season is anything Warner Bros., Harry Potter being the big ticket. Here are my holiday season purchases:

Harry Potter Set
Ocean's Set
Die Hard 1
Simpson's Movie
Spiderman Set
Pirates 3
Cars
Ratatouille
Close Encounters
Blade Runner

micks_address · 09-26-2007, 07:17 AM

my buys (if the wife doesnt kick me out) are:

1) Spiderman boxset (should be making its way from Oz as we speak)
2) Cars
3) Meet the robinsons
4) Wild Hogs (rented at the weekend and really enjoyed so its on order)
5) Ratatouille
6) Die Hards
7) Independance Day
8) Simpsons
9) Pirates @ worlds end

There are others for sure that i might have to wait on due to expense! If Warner brothers would announce the Matrix box set id have that in a heartbeat.. come on warners

quetzalcoatl · 09-26-2007, 07:29 AM

Mine left to buy are.
ID, pirates, and Close Encounters.

Since I have already ordered.
Potter box
cars
ratatouille

I am looking foward to testing ID and Close to my LD's. Since the sound on them was so much better than on DVD.

gand41f · 09-26-2007, 07:29 AM

Too many to list, but the top few for me are:

1. Ratatouille (see sig.

)
2. The Song Remains The Same
3. PotC3
4. Close Encounters of the Third Kind
5. HP5
6. Memoirs of a Geisha
7. SM3
8. Cars
9. Anything Kubrick

enjoy
gandalf

P.S. My 500th post!

NutsAboutPS3 · 09-26-2007, 09:00 AM

Spiderman boxset and Blade Runner are the only MUST have releases for me, though I will buy more than these, just that the others are WILL have rather than MUST have

Zyclone · 09-26-2007, 09:29 AM

pirates 3 for me there is alot of great movies coming out but its the only one that i really really want. if i had some more money then my list would be bigger

Westifire · 09-26-2007, 10:41 AM

Not much for me...

The Day After Tomorrow [BD]
28 Weeks Later [BD]
Transformers: 2-Disc SE [HD]
Spider-Man: The HD Trilogy [BD]
DBZ: Broly, The Legendary Super Saiyan [BD]
PotC: At World's End [BD]
Lost: The Complete Third Season [BD]

I support blu-ray all the way but I'm sorry, I needed Heroes & Transformers in HD.
