The Mist

The first time I've seen it. I watched the B&W version and it was fucking amazing. I'm still thinking about it three days later.

This past weekend, The Dirty Dozen HD-DVD, and Monster House BD. Both great presentations.

Edit: forgot, Iron Man BD as well.

It sure sounds like it's the same as the previous version. Taken from the review at highdef-

This Blu-ray double-dip is the disc we should have got the first time around -- the video and audio are the same (which ain't a bad thing).

American Psycho BD last night. Transfer was alright, the opening few minutes were poor.

Honestly, i've never seen it before this. But with the $10 off BB coupon, I just went with the new 2-disc version. I really really liked the movie, looked great, sounded pretty good. Another great blind buy.

Transfer was ridiculous. Audio was jaw-dropping. Extras were "eh". BD-Live was worthless.

Yes I agree it's a great movie.one reason I'm considering buying it on BD. IMO this is the best Bond movie(because of Craig's performance)
The 2-disc (SD) version I have now was only in DD, I believe the BD one is in TrueHD. IMO there is a difference with TrueHD and or DTS-HD/MA. Yes I have a $10 off coupon and thinking of getting Casino Royale with it but only if the transfer is a good one.
