Toadofsky Posted November 28, 2009 Posted November 28, 2009 Yeah, Black Friday had a deal I couldn't pass up. It's a Samsung Blu Ray player (about a 150 bucks), I already have an HDMI cable for my tv that does about 720p or so resolution. I was just wanting to know if any of you have one, and what movies you could recommend that really makes the quality stand out. I already bought the new Star Trek on a regular dvd, so I probably won't rebuy that movie (at least until it's 10 bucks on Blu Ray if even then). Quote
Gollgagh Posted November 28, 2009 Posted November 28, 2009 heh, I've had two bluray players (PS3's) for like a year and I still haven't seen any bluray movies Quote
EdgeCrusher Posted November 28, 2009 Posted November 28, 2009 Only blu rays I own are Day and Dawn of the Dead, Evil Dead 2, Up, and Snow White. You can guess which ones are mine and which are my wifes. Quote
Nabeel Ansari Posted November 28, 2009 Posted November 28, 2009 You should've gotten a PS3; You can play games, the online is free and you can do 1080p. But The Dark Knight on Blu-Ray has fantastic quality, and so does Final Fantasy VII: Advent Children Complete Edition (It has like 20 more minutes of movie content, as well and the visual effects in some scenes were changed, like the entire Seph vs. Cloud fight their swords glow blue) Quote
Schwaltzvald Posted November 28, 2009 Posted November 28, 2009 whatever movies you enjoy normally This pretty much, should have gone for the PS3 though imo... Quote
KyleJCrb Posted November 28, 2009 Posted November 28, 2009 What if he already has a PS3? Ever think about that? Quote
Vivi22 Posted November 28, 2009 Posted November 28, 2009 What if he already has a PS3? Ever think about that? He'd probably already have some Blu-Ray movies then. Anyway, definitely go for the movies you already like, though some of the better looking movies I've seen in HD include 300 and the last two Bond movies. Quote
linkspast Posted November 28, 2009 Posted November 28, 2009 I heard that wall-e looks amazing.. Though I have not bought it cause bluray is so expensive Quote
EdgeCrusher Posted November 29, 2009 Posted November 29, 2009 Look for blu rays used on amazon. That's where I got some of mine for 7 to 10 bucks. Quote
Nabeel Ansari Posted November 29, 2009 Posted November 29, 2009 What if he already has a PS3? Ever think about that? Then he'd have no reason to buy a Blu-Ray DVD Player. "Ever think about that?" :tomatoface: Quote

I considered a PS3 for some time, but there's very few games I would play on it. Not to mention that I only like keeping track of one console (my nintendo wii), I spend enough time playing it. Quote
DarkeSword Posted November 29, 2009 Posted November 29, 2009 Check out any of the Pixar movies. We just got Up on Blu Ray and it looks awesome. BALLOONS IN HD. Quote
Nabeel Ansari Posted November 29, 2009 Posted November 29, 2009 BALLOONS IN HD. Quoted for awesomeness. Quote
atmuh Posted November 29, 2009 Posted November 29, 2009 up in 1080p actually does look really nice yeah as does wall-e Quote
ifirit Posted November 29, 2009 Posted November 29, 2009 If you haven't seen the movie "The Fall" yet. I highly recommend getting it on Blu-Ray. It's an absolutely visually-stunning film. http://www.traileraddict.com/trailer/the-fall/trailer Quote
Sixto Posted November 29, 2009 Posted November 29, 2009 The Watchmen, Star Trek (amazing in Blu-Ray!), Sin City, Casino Royale, Quantum of Solace, Pirates trilogy, and both Transformer movies. Watching these on a good screen is like looking out through a window at times. Quote
Hum4n After All Posted November 29, 2009 Posted November 29, 2009 You should've gotten a PS3;You can play games, the online is free and 'shitty' and you can do 1080p. I like paying my 50 dollahs a year for outstanding online gameplay and experience. Quote
Gollgagh Posted November 29, 2009 Posted November 29, 2009 I don't care one effing whit for online I hate playing people online Quote
