Definitely one of the best shows to ever be prematurely cancelled. I love my BR set. Although I do admit I never knew about the show while it was on the air. When i first saw Serenity I didn't know it was based on, or taken from a TV show.

Thanks. I'll be sure to track that down.

Up In The Air Saw this in the theater. Great movie looks and sounds like it should for a contemporary movie.

The Hangover Watch this once a month, love it.

An emotionally draining night to say the least.

Ninja Assassin

Haven't had that much fun with a newer film of this type since Rambo. PQ was solid and AQ was a little ridiculous. Thought my TV was going to blow up.

The Crazies - The PQ is just stunning for this quality of film. I have no problem with people saying its Romero's worst, it is in so many ways. The cast is just putrid, but I actually like the movie.

Pandorum. Nice underrated movie, but the PQ left alot to be desired. I didn't expect it to be great since alot of the movie takes place inside a dark ship. AQ was good.

King Arthur After sitting through the crappy Last Chance Harvey on SD I needed some action to make me forget. One of the first BR's I picked up and it never fails to entertain.

Midnight Meat Train: the AQ was great but the video suffered from alot of mosquito noise, which I thought was visually distracting.

2001: A Space Odyssey -- it's going to take awhile before I gather enough steam to watch the sequel.

Sympathy for Mr. Vengeance - This movie is so highly rewatchable, it is just flawless film making and is probably the weakest of the three films which is just a testament to who I consider to be the greatest working director in the world. I'm just in awe of the directing and choice of shots. The PQ is amazing, pretty much perfect. I remember buying a bootleg of this film when it first came out (I think from Poker Industries) & to have this movie looking the way it does now is why I love Blu-Rays.

Paris - I'm a sucker for movies about Paris & I am deeply in love with Melanie Laurent (whom I much prefer as a brunett), although she isn't in the movie that much, when she is its the best part of the movie. Julia Ormond also looks amazing in this movie. Its a decent movie, with decent PQ not great.
