Captain Charisma posted:I liked the list idea. Should we just do Top 10 Overall or do Best A/V, Best Supplements, etc.? Honestly, I would say keep it simple and just do best overall. If the Blade-Runner Blu-Ray is not in the top ten I will break a Blu-Ray in half.

bad movie knight posted:The BMK Exchange Program is way better. I just sent you my BSG Blu-Rays! I also sent in my entire DVD and Blu-Ray collection so that those cases can be upgraded to Blu-Ray style Criterion cases. Thank you BMK for the upgrade. I can't wait to get them back!

Philip J Fry posted:I'll hold out for the God-damned Sexual Tyrannosaurus Edition, thanks. The fact that companies do not use names like this confuse me. Seriously, I would almost buy this movie on that name alone. With a name like Thrill of the Hunt Edition I think to myself "Maybe I should check the PQ etc when I get home." If I were to see God-Damned Sexual Tyrannosaurus Edition I would buy it on the spot, because at worst I have an amazingly named special edition that will always be a conversation starter when someone new is by my place. I can completely understand Slack-jawed human being Edition not happening, but Sexual Tyrannosaurus Edition should.

frumpsnake posted:There was bad language in Avatar? Is there a "family video track" where they resolve their differences with a hug? They say "poo poo" a whole lot. I only know this because it is enough for my boss to not let me put it on the TV in the movie store...that being said, I never wanted to anyways so I guess that is a non-issue.

OGB posted:And I'm not gonna pay more than $17. I have over 50 Blu-Rays and I think the average cost for them is $7 last I checked. Then again, I just bought Yojimbo/Sanjuro combo, House, and Che on Blu-Ray at the BnN half off sale because I got a $75 gift card from a raffle. If I need to watch it right loving now I will Netflix it otherwise I can wait for sales or for it to become an old title.

doctor thodt posted:Don't ever order anything from DD that's out of stock (which Videodrome is). I have orders over 3 months old that haven't shipped yet. My Battlestar Galactica Blu-Rays were in stock when I ordered them and it took them 3 months to get to me. That is the first and last time that I will use them.

Casimir Radon posted:I think what we need to do is take pictures if our garbage cans full of slipcovers, then post them on hi-def forums. I get most of my movies from Amazon, I have no excuse. You could most likely sell your slipcovers to people on those forums for a like $1 a pop. I bet some of them would bite.

GonSmithe posted:That's not the reason he's saying that. The reason he's saying that is because it's not a slipcover, it's a "slip-piece-of-cardboard-with-no-bottom-that-folds-open." I have to say that personally I love that case, but as someone who works in a rental store...gently caress that case. I had to tape the "slipcover" to the cases so that people would know what movie it is. Also, people are dumb and like to take slipcovers off and reverse them etc, so I know this is going to be a bother for a while.

ApexAftermath posted:What do you mean? Wouldn't most shows be shot on film or some comparable digital format? Even if it is broadcast in crappy SD wouldn't the original elements be suited for HD? And if they are not suited for HD then why put them on blu ray at all? Seems like a worthless exercise. It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia is shot on an SD camera and the Blu-Ray image is barely any better than the DVDs and takes up the same number of disks. It would be nice to have that all on one disk. That is the first example that I can think of.

Cacator posted:The DVD disc of the Girl with the Dragon Tattoo is made to look like a DVD-R disc with the title handwritten on it. Almost fooled me, I like it. Reminded me of the Criterion Videodrome case. Borat did the same thing and people in my movie store kept on asking if we were giving them a pirated version. I am betting that Girl with the Dragon Tattoo will be just as bad.

Call Me Charlie posted:Only works on Sony's 4K TVs? $8 to rent? $30 to purchase? What a bargain! Sounds about right for the price point given the cost of Blu-Ray players and the disks in the past. Also, compare that with $14.99 to buy digital copies on Amazon. I mean, if you already bought a $5,000 TV I don't really think that the cost of 4K content is really going to stop you from buying it.
