Paramount, Universal Group - Blu-ray Forum

Gio · 10-23-2007, 09:35 AM

I know i'm new but seriously, how many movies (other than Steven Spielberg), have the Paramount group made that you would really buy again on high def format I was going through my DVD collection and basically all my favorite movies are either Sony, Fox, Disney or WB which is the main reason i went BLU in the first place, again the only movies they've made that would intrest me are:
End of Days
Face Off
Mummy
Mummy Returns
Scorpion King
Mallrats
Braveheart
War of the Worlds
and Transformers
So basically I could Really care less if they're HD-DUD exclusive I just really hope WB goes BLU exclusive or at least stays neutral

Mummy
Mummy Returns
Scorpion King

The Bourne Trilogy

SFK

I think Paramount made a truck load of Star Trek movies. Some of those might be pretty decent in high definition.
Then there is:
The Ten Commandments
The Godfather ((Parts 1 & 2)(They made 3, but we don't like to talk about that one))
Breakfast at Tiffany's (ohhhhh.... Audrey Hepburn in high def)
The Man Who Shot Liberty Valance
Chinatown
The Elephant Man

Quite a lot of films that would be interesting in high definition.

It will be interesting to see how they handle films they did not make, but distributed... such as Dragonslayer. Made by Disney but distributed by Paramount.

Season 1 of the original Star Trek series is available to order in the UK on HD-DVD only.

Star Trek fans are legion and, like their Star Wars opposite numbers, will buy pretty much anything related on whatever format it's released on

tiger roach · 10-23-2007, 01:36 PM

We still need them to go blue so we can end this destructive war before more innocent lives are lost.

SS316SRV · 10-23-2007, 01:43 PM

Bourne
Galdiator
Braveheart
South Park: Bigger, Longer, and Uncut
Team America: World Police

Universal also has the Back to the Future Trilogy.... only 3 movies, but they are 3 of my favorite movies of all time.

dvcmember · 10-23-2007, 02:12 PM

I'm a Star Trek (and Star Wars) fan but will wait for the goodies to appear in Blu. Also will wait for the Indiana Jones movies.

Universal also has the classic monsters...

Not really.

Spielberg has those monsters. Universal merely makes money on them if Steven decides to release them on blu-ray.

trinireb · 10-23-2007, 02:20 PM

War of the worlds
Minority report
jurassic park all 3
