Lookin' to get a movie on the way home... - Blu-ray Forum

Therickus · 08-30-2007, 07:29 PM

And so....Dont feel all that great currently, and I kind of just want to buy a movie, go home and watch it. I currently own 51 blus, so I have most of the ones people name out when someone is looking to get a movie. Any suggestions on something not so obvious, that I could pick up from the local BB or CC?

Cheer up 'ol bean! Grab yerself a comedy and have a laugh or two...maybe that'll make you feel better!

Well I was thinking of buying TMNT on the way home myself. I wasn't big into the cartoon, but it is getting rather good reviews on Amazon. Fantastic picture and not a bad story.

Therickus · 08-30-2007, 08:45 PM

I enjoyed TMNT, but yeah, I own it. Cant figure out what I want to buy...grrrrrrr

glenn22 · 08-30-2007, 08:46 PM

Beerfest? That's always cheers me up when I'm feeling blah.

Therickus · 08-30-2007, 08:49 PM

Lol! Fifth Element then? That's practically a classic now and the re-mastered version looks amazing, the colors really pop. You probably already own that one too though...

Therickus · 08-30-2007, 08:55 PM

check....and....check

This is almost a game...."What sweet movie do you not own?"

glenn22 · 08-30-2007, 08:59 PM

Ok I'll just list all the great ones (at least I think they are great) that I own and we'll see if you own them already.

300 (DUH!)
Casino Royale
Apocalypto
Terminator 2
Fifth Element
Beerfest
Crank
Mission Impossible 3
Resevoir Dogs
Shooter
Talladega Nights
Underworld: Evolution

I also own, but was not as impressed with:

The Road Warrior
Sahara
Terminator 1
Stargate
Usual Suspects
Eragon
Ghost Rider
Rambo
Reign of Fire
HellBoy

While I have all of the "Greats" except 1(shooter....ima look to see if BB has it)...and I only have one of the movies you deemed not so great(Ghost Rider)

jamclaur · 08-30-2007, 09:15 PM

I say get Weeds season one or two.

Even though it's a tv show and not a movie it's pretty funny. And definately not something you see on tv everyday.

Well Shooter was a pretty good one IMO. Nothing ground break to be sure, but quite entertaining.

Buy Shooter! Better get it while you can.

haushausman · 08-30-2007, 09:52 PM

Untouchables. One of my favs in my collection.

Am I the only one who hated that movie?

tron3 · 08-31-2007, 02:12 AM

"Letters to Iwo Jima" Got it for my brother for his birthday. I watched it just for being blu-ray. EXCELLENT movie. Deserved best picture.

BStecke · 08-31-2007, 02:22 AM

I would also recommend Shooter and Weeds. The first season of Weeds is like 20 bucks at Wal Mart, and it's about 4 hours of quality entertainment.
