I double dipped again...and yes I still blame Jon.  It may be illogical, but at least I'm consistent.  :laugh:

Serenity

Funny, I just ordered it yesterday as well. Together with Firefly, which was at a moree reasonable price now ($28 rather than $43).

I've seen the Blu-ray of Firefly on sale recently..I've been tempted, but so far I haven't gotten it.

Is Jon to blame for you getting Serenity too? ;)

No, he's off the hook with me. I had it on the wish list for a while and the reviews I have seen said all that it's 4.5-5 stars in picture quality.

Admittedly though, I'll blame him for Firefly. His detailed reviews strengthened my feelings for the show.

Ahh ok.  Well I had figured I'd get Serenity on Blu even before I got a Blu-ray player, but I decided when I got Toy Story, Toy Story 2 and Bug's Life on Blu, that I was blaming Jon for those upgrades...and all future Blu-ray purchases, so I must remain consistent and blame him for Serenity too.

I did it again.

The Dark Knight

North by Northwest


I have decided to make a one time exception to blaming Jon in the case of North by Northwest.  Achim actually first posted about this one on Blu-ray in the Hitchcock thread and kept tempting Jon till he caved and bought it.  So..North by Northwest is Achim's fault, but The Dark Knight is still Jon's fault..just because. :)

I've not upgraded yet, but I am tempted to upgrade Corpse Bride. If WB had included lossless audio I would have caved already. I've got a friend who might be interested in the DVD w/ artbook, so if I sell to him I'll definitely be upgrading. The Nightmare Before Christmas is another temptation. It's a shame that Vincent (an included short film) isn't in HD too.

I forgot to mention before...I ordered Cars, Ratatioulle - I learned how to spell that when the movie came out..mainly because of my review.  I've since forgotten how to spell it :lol - and Wall-E on Blu-ray tonight.  So I will have double dipped on all the Pixar movies that are out on Blu.

They need to hurry up and releasing Finding Nemo and The Incredibles already.  ;)

Ever since that film I have never forgotten how to spell that word.

This was my latest upgrade:

Saving Private Ryan


At the moment I'm thinking about upgrading "The Sand Pebbles". The German blu-ray release is supposed to be uncut (about 12 min more than the dvd release)

You'll see it's worth it.

I happily take the blame for North By Northwest and you will find that the upgrade to Blu-ray is worth your while as well. Watch out for the IMAX scenes, where the 2.35 image opens up to the full 1.78 of your screen :thumbup:


All Pixar films are worthy upgrades.


Ratatouille :D

Same for me :laugh:

For a while after Ratatouille came out, I could still spell it...but the knowledge left my brain.  :laugh:

I think Achim should start sharing the blame for all your Blus! :tease:

He does get the blame for North by Northwest.  That's the only Blu I remember him going on about.
