Dear Andrew

After reading your post, I can't help it but to say "I AM NOT ALONE"!!!

Similar to you, I have already got 40 titles with 2 more coming (from B&N) and a few more pre-order that will be released sometime this year. And all were purchased after Christmas. I think I am addicted and looking for a cure soon!!

Now, I am actively looking for a nice cabinet to store these Blu-rays..any suggestion?

[*]The Close Encounter of the Third Kind  - Beginning until middle still ok, quite interesting, once it step in where the actor like crazy human building that mountain, ok la.. I dislike it already, and the ending using that few notes to communicate looks stupid to me, sorry this not my type of Sci-Fi movie and I think this the only Steven Spielberg movie I dislike.
Agree. Ditto with 2001 Space Odyssey. Both with good beginnings and end like crap.

I already got 6 titles, I tried my luck because all not yet available eleswhere, around RM48/disc included freight,
MIMIC - directed by GUILLERMO DEL TORO, good scifi horror, released by NEW LINE same year with DARK CITY, both suffer in box office, PIC is B-, no remastered & very dark movie, SOUND is better in DTS-HD 5.1 
FROM DUSK TILL DAWN - directed by Robert Rodriguez, with George Clooney & Q. Tarantino - the pic is very good quality, A-, sound very good too, US Vivendi might release this title soon, so hold your horses
LIFE IS BEAUTIFUL - u can find the review in Blu-ray.com, very good quality both in pic & sound, & very good italy movie
CHOCALATE - 1080I, but very good PIC quality
CONSTANT GARDENER - Pic B+, however no subtitle, very dificult to watch as it is heavy dialoge driven movie
THE CELL - I read from the forum u all love "THE FALL", i think u guys should already knew THE CELL, both directed by TARSEM SINGH. a very beautiful psycho thriller with J.Lo, again u can find the review at Blu-ray.com, pic & sound both B/B+, again no subtitle & zero extra feature.

I watch the above BD with my Optoma HD86 projector, so the effect is dif watching at HD LCD/LED/Plasma.

Just made another order for 6 more titles, all in STEELBOOK & DIGIBOOK packing, will comment when arrive.

Hi,
I got the older packing, also in box set, the PIC & Audio quality is very good, with cool menu

I think if u are not desperate, please wait as Pirate 4 is coming to theater soon, Disney will have to clear all trilogy box set & there will be more discount. eg. X-Men trilogy box set (9 disc) used to sell at U$50, now U$30, other example like Rambo Trilogy etc.

U$50 is reasonable but not cheap, U$30 is a must.

hi dirtrun,
ya, is Le Chocolat.
I would like to order English Patient, but i think no subtitle, right?

Just order CRITERION COLLECTION - CHE - 2 disc pack.


Some sharing on IPARCEL & Standard International Shipping:

the lowest cost is Standard international shipping, with no tracking, & it is by post Malaysia to our house. It has improved a lot during last few year, usually arrived in 4 weeks for 10 disc pack & 10 days for single disc, & i never encounter lost in mail

IPARCEL - suppose better than normal post but IPARCEL screw up recently. My first few order via IPARCEL arrived in 20 days, then it got delay to 50 days, now even some order been lost in mail. When ever i contact AMZ US for this, AMZ US never hesitate to replace me the order with upgrade to faster post at their cost. IPARCEL suppose to hav tracking no but they never update it. I got lots of package already received but in their tracking history, it shown in US werehouse.

I think the main reason IPARCEL delay is due to all blu-ray crazies like us made too many order until they cannot cope with the high demand. ha..

Recently I pre-order a lots to avoid the IPARCEL. I re-order 10 disc at once with dif release date, so AMZ US will deliver via Standard shipping 1 by 1 whenever it is release.

something to add to Dirtrun, Life is Beatiful is one of the best, do not missed it.
