AVP on Blu-Ray. Got a Blu-Ray player Tuesday and this seemed like a great first choice. The film, which I always thought was a decent movie, looks absolutely fabulous in 1080p. I also got I Am Legend and Hitman on Blu-Ray, I’ll be watching those this weekend (haven’t seen either one yet). Now I can’t wait for AVP:R and Predator to come out on Blu-Ray in April 😀

At last the High Def DVD war is over thank goodness.For the first time ever,I was not an early adopter,thereby usually losing out to the eventual winner.I stayed with a multi-region player that upscaled to 1080I and P to my monitor and projector.
I know that,as for the present,Blu-Ray discs are not region coded,but for how long.Does your,or any,new Blu-Ray player upscale ordinary discs?

And on a lighter note………….
Michael Clayton-a gripping legal thriller.Tilda Swinton is brilliant (I don’t need to tell you that she has an Oscar sitting somewhere on her mantle piece),Tom Wilkinson is manic and Mr Clooney is in cruise control,seemingly making his job look so easy.Certainly not a blockbuster but very enjoyable none the less.
Oh,did I say I preferred this to No Country For Old Men?
Incoming expected:eek: .

I’m a big fan of Korean films and would like to know what you thought of this film.As far as I know,it tells a story about the suppression/murder of a student uprising in a so-called democracy.

No reply,so I had to find out for myself.I got the 3 disc edition in a beautiful presentation box.
I slapped this into the player earlier this week and,as I thought,it’s the story of events leading up to the 1980 Gwanju massacre in South Korea when thousands of students and protesters were killed by armed troops during an anti-government demonstration.
Chillingly,it reminds me of what’s going on in Tibet and a few northern Chinese states.

The Jammed,a quality independent film from Australia that covers a difficult subject (forced prostitution) and is well worth a view.Cracking performances all round.

No Country For Old Men for the second time,this time on DVD.A good film but not a great film.Really can’t see what all the fuss is about and I still don’t “get” the ending.
American Gangster Really disappointed with this.Good story and Denzil was “cool” but I had that “seen it all before” feel about it.

Get Carter.One of Mr Caine’s best.Happy 75th Maurice;) .

Made in 91 not as good as the original

They’re doing it again Steve.”Killer Tomatoes” to make big-screen return.
Just remember,don’t shoot the messenger:diablo: .

Very windy here in SE7 early on but now it’s just another miserable rainy day.Loadsa probs with the digital TV reception though.
