InCrYsIs Posted March 18, 2009 Posted March 18, 2009 I just got a Blu-Ray player. What should the first movie I buy be to really get the experience? Preferably SCI-FI or Action. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
LoArmistead Posted March 18, 2009 Posted March 18, 2009 I think one of the most stunning Blu-rays I have is Kingdom of Heaven... but if you want to stay within your genre, I think the absolute BEST sci-fi blu-ray you can get right now is The Fifth Element. Be sure to get the Remastered one. Supposedly the first blu-ray release of it had good sound but terrible picture. The Remastered version looks and sounds beautiful. It's the first sci-gi bluray I bought, and already being a fan of the movie, it made me love it all that much more. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Silverfox Posted March 18, 2009 Posted March 18, 2009 Transformers is a great demonstration of what Blu Ray can do. I also have the Terminator Sarah Connor Chronicles Series 1 and it looks cracking. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
InCrYsIs Posted March 18, 2009 Posted March 18, 2009 I already have transformers on HD-DVD for my defunct hd add on to xbox360. I do love fifth element though. I was thinking of buying wanted too. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
MINDSCI Posted March 18, 2009 Posted March 18, 2009 (edited) If you're into chix get ULTRAVIOLET on Blu-Ray. She will knock your drwawers off! Flik is shot in total HI DEF so you get the the best experience! Milla is hit- melt your crap- in this one one! Other: Blood Diamond Resident Evil (all) Training Day (oscar winner Denzel Washinghton). Have fun popping your Blu-Ray Cherry!!! Bottom line: Regular DVD's Upconverted onto a 1080p 5ms or better set look just as good as Blu-Ray, by a hare! Edit: Get Terminator 3 or Starship Troopers... Hope you have 20/ 20 vision or better or contacts or eyeglasses... It's that good!!! Edited March 18, 2009 by MINDSCI Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

One problem with ultraviolet is its a terrible movie. Resident evil extinction is a thought. I already have the Resident Evil degeneration cgi movie on dvd. I would have gotten that.

Was 5th Element worth the Blu-Ray investment? My Maganavox Blu-Ray player upconverts regular DVD's Perfectly? I love that flik although!

Here's what I have on HD-DVD: Batman Begins, 300, Transformers, Beowulf, Knocked Up, King Kong and Space Cowboys. I love all these movies with the exception of Beowulf. I am considering getting Dark Knight on Blu-Ray. Best Buy has 5th Element re-mastered for 15 bucks.

Turophiliac Posted March 18, 2009 Posted March 18, 2009 I am considering getting Dark Knight on Blu-Ray. Dark Knight is AWESOME in 1080! The best I've ever seen! I even liked it better than when I saw it in the movies. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
