Re: The Official Blu-Ray Deals Thread

T2: Skynet Edition $10!! http://www.amazon.com/Terminator-Judgment-Day-Skynet-Blu-ray/dp/B001RIY4WE/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&s=dvd&qid=1277929891&sr=1-1 That is a steal. The transfer on this BD is out of sight. I've never seen T2 look this good. I wish they would treat all catalog titles this...

Re: Predators

Turns out the director Nimrod Anatol was shopping at Austin Books and Comics right across the street from where I work and shop during lunch sometimes. I'm sure he was low key but that would have been cool to say hi. Turns out most of Predators was filmed in Austin. When Rodriguez filmed Planet Terr...

Re: The New "Slim" XBox 360

My 360 is a little flaky. The drive has issues reading disks at times. So I think I'm going to hold on and get a slim model. I know that the hard drives in the new models are different than the previous ones but are they more standard, like the PS3? If so then I might be the new Arcade slim model an...

Re: Official MLB Thread

Should baseball players, or any sport for that matter, be suspended WITHOUT pay when they act like complete jackasses? I'm looking at you Carlos Zambrano! LOL, I'd rather one of my team's players do steroids than act like that. At least they are trying to help the team with PEDs. Pissing everyone o...

Re: BD Transfers to watch out for.

It looks like the digital bits has joined in on the Predator discussion. http://thedigitalbits.com/#mytwocents What do you guys think? I get where he's coming from but I also like a cleaner image. Is an image full of grain because of limitations in the filming process 20 years ago? Or is it intentio...

Re: BD Transfers to watch out for.

Are you talking about the Firmware thing? Mine's not hooked up to the internet as well and I might have to burn an upgrade to a disc and bring it to my Blu-Ray. My Harry Potter Blu won't play and I think it needs the upgrade. I think Blu-Ray players will need the upgrades from time to time or else,...

Re: Favorite Bluray Movie?

Mine is probably Blade Runner Final Cut 5 disk set. It has the cleanest quality presentation of the film I've ever seen. A three hour documentary, all the other cuts of the film and tons of other extras. It's an amazing value.

Re: True Blood Season 3 (with spoilers)

This season needs to pick it up a bit in my opinion. The first episode started well but the last two have been average. Not bad but average. Season 2 was so damn good.

Re: BD Transfers to watch out for.

bluray.com ripped the new Predator transfer. They said that the DNR makes the print look like it wasn't shot on film.

Re: Finally, a Verizon iPhone...maybe?

I still don't see it happening any time soon. I've heard rumors that the original deal with Apple and AT&T was 5 years. Which would leave almost two years.

Re: Wonder Woman's New Outfit

Interesting. Reminds me of the leather jacket era from Avengers in the early 90s. I don't mind when they shake up a costume every now and then. We all know it'll go back to how it was but makes in interesting for a while.

Re: What are you playing right now?

After finally finishing Fallout 3, the main game at least. I'm hitting Final Fantasy XIII hard core now. It's growing on me. Still think they missed the mark but Square knows how to present a game. I love me some squaresoft cut scenes.
