BATMAN BEGINS Oct. 10th!
And it's not even my birthday!
http://dvd.themanroom.com/dvd-newsview.php?id=295 http://i13.photobucket.com/albums/a2...d-dvd_case.jpg I believe this is the european version which is far cooler, but it's nice to look at. |
We know. It's already been posted twice :)
|
I think some really high profile titles are worth highlighting in their own threads. Admittedly arbitrary, but...yeah.
|
oh i know.
we're just going to have 3 different threads of :drool: After this and the Superman announcement (whenever that happens), I wonder what title moves up the "bitch list?" :) |
I bought the HD-A1 essentially for this film. Obviously I want most of the HD DVD library, but when I closed my eyes and imagined watching Batman Begins in HD, there was no going back. My mind was made up and now it will be mine, oh yes, it will be mine.
|
heck yeah!!

Now I just have to decide if I wanna sell the SD-DVD version and lose that comic book it came with. |

But all the content and more will be on the HD DVD so I don't miss it at all. |

Who are these bastards that flood ebay with several postings of ridiculously low prices? There's someone there right now with 3 auctions selling the BB 2-disc for $1.86. Do they steal these things? Guys like that are why I am rarely over at ebay anymore. I can sell a DVD at my local resale shop for $5-$7. Why would I bother going through all that trouble to sell something online for $2? |
Yes yes yes yes yes yes YES!
|
This is a must-buy for me. Definitely picking it up.

He suffers from numerous delusions I don't have the heart to correct him on. He has a 52" 768 DLP that he swears he can watch 1080i programming on...in 1080i. Apparently something displays on the screen for whatever the encode is. Obviously it is getting downmixed but he swears he's getting the full monty. He also thinks over the air HD is the same as HD DVD. He's always had a need to show off, despite the fact that until recently he hasn't had anything worth showing off. So I throw him a bone every now and then and let him feel superior because he saw the HBO HD version of Batman Begins. I tell him his HDTV looks better than mine, which is only half true (I have a tweaked 65" CRT). |

And I netted $5.51 for the single disc at Half.com last week, again, about what I paid for it ($5.86). Not a lot, but better than $2. (However, it helps that I have 100% positive feedback ratings at both places, and that both DVDs were in perfect, "like new" condition.) Needless to say, I saw this HD DVD release coming and am mightly pleased BB is going to be released so soon. :) |

Any word on wether the TrueHD track will be 16 bit or 24 bit?

Batman Begins 10/10, Mission: Impossible III 10/30, King Kong 11/14, Superman Returns presumably 11/28, nice to see some of the big boys...
Things are looking good.....I wonder if we get a Harry Potter 4 official announcement. |
This might be the first title I pick up when I do get a player...
|
And no pre-order on Amazon. No wonder they went with a 10% off scam. They don't ever have any to sell people. :grunt:
|
Was Superman confirmed at CEDIA?
