New This Week: 05/15/2007 Edition - Blu-ray Forum

Chris Beveridge · 05-13-2007, 01:27 PM

In our "Calm Before the Storm" edition, a few titles are trickling out that will hopefully catch some additional sales the week after when people go on buying binges...

Greenmatiz2 · 05-13-2007, 01:30 PM

I'm sure there are those who enjoy these titles, and although they add to the total count, they're hardly what's going to help Sony win this format war.

bluflu · 05-13-2007, 01:47 PM

Stomp the Yard to check out the sound. I'm putting Warner on punishment this week.

HDViewer · 05-13-2007, 03:50 PM

The Road Warrior for me. Mel who?

movies3 · 05-13-2007, 04:38 PM

nothin this week... cant wait till next though

coolmilo · 05-13-2007, 05:07 PM

I am considering The Fountain. However, I am planning to rent it first bacause I've read too many bad reviews about this flick.

DrinkMore · 05-13-2007, 06:00 PM

None of those titles peak my interest. Like most - I will wait til next week

Shin-Ra · 05-13-2007, 06:18 PM

Lots out tomorrow in the UK according to PLAY.com:

The Pursuit Of Happyness (Blu-ray)
Superman Returns (Blu-ray)
The Day After Tomorrow (Blu-ray)
Ice Age (Blu-ray)
King Arthur: Director's Cut (Blu-ray)
Man On Fire (Blu-ray)
Vertical Limit (Blu-ray)
Planet Of The Apes (2001) (Blu-ray)
Secret Window (Blu-ray)
DodgeBall (Blu-ray)
Entrapment (Blu-ray)
The Sentinel (Blu-ray)

I didn't realise Resident Evil: Apocalypse was out already too.

LeoneFan · 05-13-2007, 07:58 PM

I would have picked up Battle of the Bulge, but I think I'll pass since it's probably another low bitrate VC-1 crapfest from Warner.

Mystique · 05-13-2007, 08:08 PM

No movies this week!!

HDJK · 05-13-2007, 08:13 PM

I might get The Fountain later on, but with the shopping spree coming up I'll pass this week.

Nothing For Me This Week. Next Week Different Story.

ManWithNoName · 05-13-2007, 09:10 PM

Battle of the Bulge and Road Warrior for me. Looking forward to Road Warrior since I never owned it on VHS or DVD. Have not seen it since it played at the theater.

Deciazulado · 05-13-2007, 09:55 PM

ManWithNoName: ditto on Mad Max 2. Great Panavison/Scope 2.40 Widescreen action that I've never wanted to see cropped in half on TV

Will probably watch it tonight. I wonder what's Leonard gonna say before the movie

I haven't received Battle Of The Bulge yet (which I've never seen) but this is an UltraPanavision 70mm movie so I wonder if its gonna be in it's 2.75 aspect ratio and how it would look

u_nick · 05-13-2007, 10:14 PM

Road Warrior for me. Should arrive in the mail from UPS tomorrow.

I'll be renting the Fountain.

Ascended_Saiyan · 05-14-2007, 12:45 AM

The Fountain and Stomp the Yard for me. Although, I could be convinced to buy the other two by Deci's recommendations and more screenshots.

ProvenFlipper · 05-14-2007, 01:02 AM

Stomp the Yard for me. I'm looking forward to auditioning the DTHD soundtrack.

Good week for us!
Dont forget Deja Vu aswell

nhaase · 05-14-2007, 03:25 AM

Is Man on Fire distributed by someone other than Fox across the pond? If it actually comes out, please tell me how it looks. I was pretty upset when they pulled it to wait for BD+.

MatrixS2000 · 05-14-2007, 11:59 AM

The Road Warrior for me.*

* - depending on the specs. Since it is a WB title if is DD only - I pass.
