Yeah, I said I would not rebuy all my DVD's once I get a blu-ray, but if they look even better than they already do with the new TV, my wallet is fucked. BDR amazon link, I'll be comin' for ya.

Much appreciated sir. And yeah, I haven't rebought EVERYTHING yet, but you should always do your research to make sure an older film you want has a good transfer.

Apart from a whole ton of Criterion DVDs, I really haven't bought ANY dvds in the past couple of years. That makes it pretty easy for me to not double up on any DVD/blu ray purchases and piss money away that I don't need to.Originally posted by MartinOriginally posted by gravediggerOriginally posted by MartinComment

And this is why I end up getting sad. I keep fucking double dipping. I wish I held off on BSG till the Blu-Ray set was out. Gah.Comment

I'd recommend avoiding most of the early discs like Blazing Saddles, The Fugitive and Terminator 3. They've tried to rectify T3, but you've got to pay attention to the UPC to know if you got a reissued disc.My readers come to me for my thoughts and opinions. I've built myself into a brand

Can you recommend a good site for researching older blu rays to make sure that they're good transfers?Originally posted by MartinOriginally posted by gravediggerOriginally posted by MartinComment

There is no rectifying T3. To do such a thing would mean they'd have to travel back in time.Comment

thedigitalbits.com is a good one."Looking like Nic Cage dressed in Kurt Cobain's closet. I mean that as a compliment" - BillyG

As much as I fucking hate the site, BluRay.com tends to do better in technical aspects. Sure, I wouldn't count on their staff to know anything about film. But, if you need an autistic monkey to break down tech specs...they're the best.My readers come to me for my thoughts and opinions. I've built myself into a brand

Such a waste. Have a shiny new HDTV & BluRay player and you won't even watch perfect films for the format. *tsk, tsk*Originally posted by Matt View Post- Francois de La RochefoucauldWe are so accustomed to disguise ourselves to others that in the end we become disguised to ourselves.Comment

I was just about to say, Rob if you hated Heat. You'd be in a world of shit.

I don't think it's on Blu...the DVD is in my NF queue...
I would definitely check out:
- Wall-E and Up on Blu (both look great)
- Anything with Jason Statham
- The Incredible Hulk (the sound is tits)
- Punisher War Zone
And I second most of the other recommendations (Iron Man for sure)Instagram: thepatronsaintofcheeseburgersComment
