blu was made for the classics  8)

shall we argue over film grain instead of oiled musclemen ??  ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D

The W.C. Fields film "Its a Gift" is very well restored,...I haven't seen it on Bluray but I have seen it from a 35mm print at a cinema,...it was the first classic film I went to see at a cinema and I was shocked at how sharp and how much detail is in the images,...our grandad's technology worked better than we give it credit for.

why avatar? its crap. i must admit that i regret not seeing it on the big screen in 3d just for the awesome effects.. the film itself though is not worth adding to any collection.. imo
Your right about the story, it mainly to show-off what Blue-ray can do.

I am waiting for the Spielberg classics but i have heard things as to why he does not want them released on Blu-Ray.  >:(

the first three indiana Jones films and Jaws.

Film grain is distinctly different than pixels,...pixels are lined up in rows and columns,...film grain is randomly distributed in the image making silver halide images look unique.

Piranha 3d was atrocious. If you wanna see Piranha, buy the original version which is also on Blu-Ray.  ;)

I have not seen that cover in this country, but i am looking to order it from the U.K.

I am a collector.  8)

i've got the original on dvd.. i like it a lot but its not worth an upgrade. the remake pisses all over it to be honest.. its just that good..  8)

'humanoids from the deep' would be money well spent on a  blu upgrade though...

yes, and when left on restored film classics (or removed) .. it sends the blu community into near fucking meltdown  ::)

those for - old dudes, film buffs and those that know what their on about.

those against - the playstation generation, and ther lust for super sharp and clean hd images..

makes a feud over 'who was better? ronnie or dorian?' look like a girl guides tea party  :D

Get the original on Blu-Ray too.  8) Yes, "Humanoids from the Deep" needs to be on Blu-Ray. You have good taste in Films my friend.   :)

I would like to see "Maxium Overdrive" on Blu-Ray.  8)

The Slumber Party Massacre needs to be on Blu-Ray along with the Summer Camp movies.

Yea, i go there to see what people say before i purchase a few. I am waiting on "Jaws".  8) I mean, they put out "The Fog" from 77-78 and look how many people bought that....now, just think about the "Jaws" franchise and the Indiana Jones franchise.  8) I mean, they put out "Troll 2" on Blu-Ray for god's sake.  :D

I have over 200 Blurays, the best ones are definitely the newest ones with the crisp special effects and the Dolby TrueHD audio that blows up my surround sound and shakes the floor!

Whay model is your blu ray player?  Does it have the latest firmware?

I had to upgrade the firmware in my blu ray player for some movies that I was having problems with, but afterwards they played fine.

Check the pioneer website, find your model number and check to see if there is a firmware you can even just google search your model number and see what comes up.
