I had this title when i had a hd dvd player and this to my memory looks the same if not a little better. Another great warner release.

Great! Another AVID Blu-disc collector buying up everything they can get their hands on. I'm in the same boat, I have 39 movies and might have 40 tomorrow if Sleepy Hollow comes in.

Swordfish is a beauty on HD DVD, I'm sure the BD looks terrific as well.

We know Kevin, we know.

You are a loyal trooper no doubt about it.

I was trying to wait for the Sony, but I started collecting discs from the beginning so as they started to pile up and I soon got anxious and got my first Samsung about mid-July. I am missing a few movies, basically because I don't care for them, or wouldn't watch them, i.e. Species, Rumor Has It, The Last Waltz. Others such as The Great Raid, LW1&2 may get picked up on a slow week.

Let me tell you something about the Last waltz. FRIGGIN AWESOME. Now the video is not the best but it was shot in the early 70's but the sound is just amazing. I glanced over it a few times thought it wasa about a waltz or something but then i read the cover i realized it was not that at all.

I bought the samsung because i couldnt wait, I had to have a player.

some of those you mentioned are the one i dont have either.

Hopefully this and several of the other early BD releases will see reissues with great transfers shortly. I know the double dipping will come. I just hope we don't have to wait very long. There's a lot of launch titles I'd have bought in a heartbeat if they looked better.

BTBuck1 · 09-29-2006, 06:12 AM

I think we'd all have The Fifth Element if it would have brought with it the Shock & Awe the Suberbit DVD did.

my favorite line from the ^ review:

Quote:

the image quality of “Swordfish” is brightly colored and highly detailed and helps cement this title as one of the best looking Blu-Ray titles yet released. Detail and color are the two elements that instantly strike the viewer as being truly high definition.
