I think it sucks that consumers have to buy movies 2 or 3 times to get the ultimate extreme super duper director cut... Fox movies are too high anyway and I'm going to be very select in which ones I purchase. I'm sure there is no snowballs chance in hell the Die Hard Trilogy will be released as separate blu-ray movies. I'm going to wait until they are just like MIP. I only want Die Hard the other 3 movies are not good enough to me to warrant buying on blu-ray.

I'm disturbed that MGM would not release the James Bond series on Blu-ray but will release only on DVD. If they released that full box set on Blu-ray I'm sure that would put a big dent in HD DVD.

I'm not trying to spread rumors or fud or anything of the like, but I am starting to wonder if HD DVD and Blu-Ray are trying to make hay while the sun shines until everything goes internet download made available by Bill "The Devil" Gates.... They better increase the bandwidth so I don't have to wait 3 days to download a 2 hour movie.... The USA is so far behing in technology. I'm serously thinking of moving to Japan or Iceland or somewhere they have better technology....

Just a quick note about LFODH - there are only 2 versions, not 3. But I agree, there's no reason both shouldn't be available on Blu.

I bought the Bond films on VHS, and then again on VHS when they were released in widescreen, then on DVD, then again when they were released in the boxsets with bonus features, and then again this last time around when they were remastered. If Bond was released on Blu, I wouldn't hesitate to buy them again. I agree - BIG dent!
