Spare change anyone? 22 May - Blu-ray Forum

BLu-Balls · 04-19-2007, 12:12 PM

May 22
9 Releases!!!

Apocolypto
MI 1
MI 2
POTC 1
POTC 2
Letters from Iwo Jima
Flags of Our Fathers
Closer
Freedom Writers

I count them six titles for 22 May that I am definatly going to buy.
Apocolypto, POTC 1 and 2, Letters from Iwo Jima, Flags of Our Fathers, and Closer are must-buys for me.

Need I mention, Keira and Natalie in Hi-def glory. Natalie Portman as a stripper! Clive Owen telling Natalie to spread them. Lucky geezer got to have both of them (reference: King Aurthur and Closer). I am choking on my own drool as I type.

Deciazulado · 04-19-2007, 01:53 PM

Thank you for posting the thread

Of that list I'll have at least 80+% of it and no spare change for June 5!!

You all wanted BD releases? Heh. Be careful what you wish for!

HDJK · 04-19-2007, 01:56 PM

^^ May and June will be the end of my spare change and the beginning of some really nice HT hours

KenThompson · 04-19-2007, 02:00 PM

Thats at least 4 movies for me and possibly more. The Pirates is a no brainer. Everyone is getting them.

The Don · 04-19-2007, 06:27 PM

Apocalypto and the 2 POTC movies...even though I'm not too big a fan of POTC, It's still worth the BD purchase..

AlaskaDon · 04-19-2007, 09:56 PM

It's going to be an expensive week for sure. I already have both POTC's on pre-order, but will be adding Flags/Letters, Closer, and Apocalypto for sure. I'll probably buy Rio Bravo and the Cowboys too, but am hoping to see reviews first on the PQ. Luckily I bought the Mission Impossible set awhile back or I might need to take out a loan for the movie fund

kiwijoe21 · 04-19-2007, 11:49 PM

your telling me ...
I'm getting on DB Apocolypto
POTC 1 & 2
Letters from Iwo Jima
Flags of Our Fathers
Closer
Freedom Writers

also getting on HD 40-Year-Old-Virgin
Hurricane
The Ultimate Matrix Collection
Skeleton Key

I'm going to be poor this week ... forget about paying rent ... buying the movies instead

BLu-Balls · 04-20-2007, 01:53 AM

Seems to me that this is going to be a serious day of spending...

Can anyone put up a poll regarding sales for this thread? I don't know how to. Thanks in advance

blurayforever143 · 04-20-2007, 01:57 AM

Man, thank god I don't like any of those movies on the list.

Definitely renting Flags of our Fathers and Freedom Writers..

Or I should just give in and BLIND BUY!

nhaase · 04-20-2007, 02:10 AM

I thought POTC 1 was pretty good, but I never bought it on DVD. I do really want to see the PQ of the Caribbean after seeing The Bahamas on CR. Since I'm getting the 1st, might as well get #2.

Blurayforever143, I thought Freedom Writers seemed like a pretty warmed-over story (Teacher inspires inner-city youngsters who the world doesn't give a chance to succeed, etc.).

As for Flags, I really liked it, but it's not a regular war movie. It's about the two flags of Iwo Jima, and of the men who raised the second one (the one in the picture we all know). Of those men, only 3 made it off the island, and it follows their story as they go on a publicity tour to solicit people to buy war bonds. While the film goes on, they have flashbacks telling how the other men died and the actions of those 3 survivors after the flag raising. The battle lasted 35 days after the flags went up. I'm buying this and blind-buying Letters from Iwo Jima.

BOSS10L · 04-20-2007, 02:13 AM

I'm getting:

May 22
Closer (Sony)
Flags of Our Fathers (Dreamworks)
Letters From Iwo Jima (Warner)
Pirates of the Caribbean: The Curse of the Black Pearl (Buena Vista)
Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Man's Chest (Buena Vista)

and of course, Matrix Trilogy on HD DVD

As an aside, I was on vacation in the Bahamas scuba diving when they were filming the POTC sequels. Some of the "locals" (they weren't naturalized but live there year-round) were used as extras. Got to see some cool pics and occasionally saw The Black Pearl sailing off in the distance. I can't wait to see them and see if I can make out the people I know with all their get-up on.

darkpoet25 · 04-20-2007, 02:54 AM

I will definetly be getting POTR 1 and 2. Don't know about the others yet.

u_nick · 04-20-2007, 02:58 AM

Just Pirates 1 for me.

I have to rent Apocalypto

And I'll Get MI:1 when it hits clearance prices in a couple years.
