Blu-ray Movies Worth Getting
« on: January 16, 2009, 02:59:20 PM »
I use my PS3 for watching Blu-ray movies.

Any recommendations for movies that blow you away with the picture and sound quality differences between Blu-ray and standard DVD.

I'm still using 8mm and an old sheet stapled to the wall.  Can't wait till we get something to hear it with.

300. the quality is excellent  :o
sunshine. again fantastic quality  :o
iron man.   for surround and visually great .I'm not into comics turned into films but was very impressed.
apocalypto. for an old film visually fantastic.

do not buy the mummy 3 .  very disappointed , could have been so much better.
have been told   The Fountain    is visually awesome but haven't bought it yet

Agree with you on 300.

I fancied getting apocalypto. Thanks

Blackhawk Down is fantastic, I have it on DVD as well and was very impressed with the difference between them.

I will have a search on amazon later.  ;)  ;D

Don't plan on replacing the DVD's I have with Bluray, but there are some that I will.

Always looking for a bargain.  ;D

I have a PS3, but my TV is a bit too old to see a difference between dvd and blu-ray  :-\

You're the man!!! I cant relate to blue ray without a superior TV.n Seriously!! I dont need that image in my home. Literally everyone I know has a nightmare story to tell about their NEW TV imaging system. No matter what kind it is. It f*&%s up and costs a fortune to repair...........Ill wait thank you.

that's bad about the TVs.
i don't know about anyone personally that's had trouble
you do need a strong signal to get a good picture.

I don't have a PS3 or have watched an entire movie in Blu-ray, but I'm pretty sure Blade Runner would look damn awesome in 1080p.
