What Standard DVD's will you never part with? Why? - Page 2 - Blu-ray Forum

Roland1919 · 12-30-2008, 01:24 AM

OH, almost forgot I am not replacing any TV SEASONS. Only the Sopranos which I heard is going to make an excellent transfer. OK they may temp me with XFILES but thats about it.

Star Wars Trilogy in a tin box exclusive from Best Buy

quexos · 12-30-2008, 02:32 AM

I will part with the movies I love the most to get those on Bluray and the rest, some I shall sell to make space and some I shall keep cause it's good but not so good as to get it on BD. But there is nothing that I specifically want to keep on DVD.

Moefiz · 12-30-2008, 02:36 AM

The Killer.The Criterion edition...I love this movie and this edition from criterion.

sa412 · 12-30-2008, 03:14 AM

i only have a few more movies left i plan on upgrading to blu-ray. the rest i'll keep. i just don't care that much about picture/audio quality to bother upgading my 300+ dvds. that's a lot of money i don't have.

You can pick up the 2 disc for around $10. The one I'm dealing for is in the same packaging but has a 3rd disc. Circuit City sold a limited number of them. I still kick myself for not getting one of them.

peter008 · 12-31-2008, 01:02 AM

i love extras so...i will never part with the dvd that have more extras than their blu-ray counterpart

brps3 · 12-31-2008, 01:52 AM

Star Wars, Star Trek, Babylon 5.

Can wait for B5 to come to Blu-ray.

jk1138 · 12-31-2008, 02:08 AM

It's A Wonderful Life, I will keep that until I have the BD in hand and viewed to see if it is a good HD transfer. After that then someone maybe able to pry it from my hands.

Sloan78 · 12-31-2008, 02:15 AM

My Waylon Jennings DVD's, don't think they will ever get the "Blu" Light.

Blu-Benny · 12-31-2008, 12:41 PM

none of them until a blu copy is available. even then, i still won't replace my entire standard dvd collection.

movies like Lord of the Rings and Star Wars 1-6 will eventually be replaced w/a blu copy, but other than that, i don't feel a real pressing need to replace any other movies in my 400+ standard collection.

Rhylliam · 12-31-2008, 04:17 PM
