i'll get this eventually when it's under $10, it'll probably look great on Blu-ray

Really? I thought the first half introduced us to the characters and their personality types. It showed the relationships that they have with one another. It also gives us a baseline of where they are emotionally and it allows for the characters to change as the event draws near.... It's also when Justine first notices Melancholia..... So I wouldn't call that a waste of time.

But I thought the entire movie was a beautiful masterpiece (the best movie of the year) so there you go... Everyone is entitled to their own opinion
