Finished Dexter Season 2. What an insane, psychotic thrill ride through the bleak darkness of this character's journey.
I highly recommend this show to anyone who likes quality television. It doesn't get much better than this.

The Collector - Absolutely awful PQ, DVDs have better quality. Pretty bad movie as well, a couple of decent moments (liked the beartrap death). Worth a rental, nothing more.

Freakin' gorgeous presentation, but such a mediocre (and often times boring) movie.

I've only seen The Thomas Crown Affair (assuming you mean the remake), and I see no reason it should be classified as a "guilty pleasure." That movie is slick and fun, and I have no hesitation naming it a favorite.

Up In the Air - I thought this started off slowly, but by the end of the film I loved it. This is absolutely Jason Reitman's best film yet.

The Relic - I hadn't seen this in years... Loved the book, I remembered liking the movie. Well, it doesn't hold up very well. Piss-poor scripting, bad dialogue... the only thing worth watching it for is Winston's amazing Kothoga creature, but it doesn't reveal itself until there are less than 30 min left! PQ was weak - anemic and hazy, virtually no dimensionality. AQ was fantastic - roaring and robust. I'd say don't bother upgrading unless you're a big fan.

Perfect Getaway Not a bad movie and a brilliant BR. The scenery is beautiful. Nice little twist at least was an attempt to keep it interesting.
Was supposed to get Green Berets on Blu but when I opened the envelope it was Battle Of Britain
