Alot of people fueled the forums because of the war on HD-DUD terrorism. Now thats done and dusted they have moved on to new pastures, maybe there is a Coke vs Pepsi war going on elsewhere

Haha, I've found myself going to this site less and less, especially the forums - I check the news front page and the movies to be released page for updates and that's it usually. Oh, and the Hot Deals Forum; have to check that one.

This bores me.

seems like only a few worth buying in the next few months. I honestly wont spend 34.99 or even 30$ on so many. Only a select few.

Beta-guy · 02-24-2008, 01:07 AM

I'm going to do some buying of old blu-ray movies I missed, and I'll be gett ID4 and I am Legend in march... still alot of excitement in Blu-ray, just quieter without the war... I kinda miss the war...

yagami · 02-24-2008, 01:18 AM

I agree with the op, it is too quiet right now, specially with all the new Blu supporters and no list of coming titles officially announced. Guess we just have to be patient and replenish our funds in the meantime.

JJ · 02-24-2008, 01:21 AM

It's quiet. Tooooo quiet.

I know everyone has different tastes, but im in shock as too how many people on here have paid money for horrible blu ray movies that bombed at the box office.

Finacial bombs at box offices don't always equate out to whether a movie is/was good or not. "Horrible" movies are a matter of opinion and tastes as you have already stated.

Because box office does not equal a good movie?
Many people will see a movie advertised for the theater and say " i will wait for it to come out on video".

It is like idiots who will let reviewers tell them what is good and bad when they want a game or something.

I'm proud to own some of the biggest box office bombs of all time. Titles such as:

-Alexander
-Boondock Saints
-Final Fantasy, Spirits Within
-Flyboys
-Gods and Generals
-King Arthur
-Kingdom of Heaven

lol.
