re: Last BD (or, unrealistically, HD DVD) you watched?

I finished watching Battlestar Galactica: Season One on HD DVD. This was my third time, I believe, fully watching the season. Absolutely amazing. I still love this series as much as ever.

At first I was disappointed by the video/audio quality but it seemed to improve as the season went on. Also, compared to the DVD's that are out, it was a HUGE step up. There is no way I am sticking to DVD for this series. I can't wait to own the entire show on Blu-ray. Should be a total blast to watch it that way!

That's it, That's all - The first ever snowboarding video filmed with High Definition cameras with photographers from National Geographic. It's insane, the movie looks sick, great music, AMAZING visuals, really love this one.

Amadeus - I wasn't terribly impressed with the quality. I'm glad I only paid 15 bucks for it.

I bought the Australian HD-DVD Box Set (because the packaging was better) and have yet to watch anything other than '33'.. but I had no faults at all with the PQ. That's kinda what they were going for.

Funny Games UK Import Blu-ray.

What an extremely screwed up movie. I'm in shock by just how shocking it was. It was definitely a terrific horror movie in that it completely messed me up in the head tonight... but should I keep it? Dunno. Not sure yet. I might sell it... can't see myself wanting to subject myself to such horror again anytime soon. But it was technically a very well made film.

Got a chance to watch Cat People for the first time with Universal's HD-DVD. It relates to American Werewolf in London the same way Orca relates to Jaws as a way to tap into a secondary market -- only Cat People has Kinski's entrancing feline performance and stylish cinematography going for it, while Orca has little more than a killer whale's fetus. I enjoyed it a lot more than I was planning on, both the movie and the disc.

Dirty Dozen As far as Blu-ray's go it is toward the lower end of the quality scale. Compared to my previous non-anamorphic, dolby surround version, it was still a significant step up.

Hmm I just got this from the $5 sale, I may have to check it out this weekend. I've wanted to see it but everytime I look at it on the shelf, my eyes move to the Val Lewton set and I feel shamed for betraying the original lol.

Wyatt Earp - I grabbed this for $12.50 at CC. I always liked the movie but I prefer Tombstone. The disc PQ and AQ were very good. I forgot just how long that movie was. Kevin Costner really likes to tell a complete story.

Step Brothers (extended)

I hate Ferrell so this was just a curiosity. Movie wasn't that funny. PQ was very good though, although golden.
