hi guys,

my friend is goin to HONG KONG & i got RM500 budget for him to buy me HONG KONG bluray disc. need some advice:

1 - the best HONG KONG release bluray disc
2 - website/webpage on HONG KONG BLURAY $ & review
3 - any cool movie only can be found in HONG KONG.

please advice/suggest.

thanks brothers.

I think i've mentioned this in the one of the previous versions. You really have to be patient with B&N shipping although its International Priority Airmail, it all depends on clearance end and MYS customs. Probably Amazon would got lucky with it , but B&N may not be, but your item should be save , at least..

Yalo... just wait until end of month April.. I think long enough.. haha

It must be really annoying waiting for something which should had arrived long ago. Complaint.

use this website as a reference when you scout for your HK bd.

http://www.play-asia.com/paOS-14-71-13a-49-en.html

Then ask your friend to buy the movie at the BD shop around Mongkok. Price will be cheaper around rm10-20 than playasia.com

The shop name "Laser Collection"
The prices there are quite reasonable, atleast its cheaper than HMV HK.

Sure they are not one of those pirated shop in HK ?

nope, bought a few bd from there before.

Its how they display the bd kinda funny.
They display the movies with self printed empty bd case.
You need to ask for the movie at the counter or present the (empty) bd case.

I say its an efficient way to prevent theft.
only that shop have this style of shopping

Prevent theft or to prevent 'goods' being confiscated by authorities during raid....

lol . . they store the original bd just behind counter only

though it does feel like shopping pirated dvd at KL . . LOL

nice

i will getting Goemon too, when the price is right . . hehe

Speaking of which, what are the price ranges of BD's available? Do they have Region A titles?

i think HK ver. all is region A
based on playasia.com info

bought Tangled 3D combo for my friend

Tangled (3d+2d) combo - hkd268 = roughly rm107

actually i am kind of confuse, i heard from some of my friend the BD at HK is around RM50/disc, but from the web, all sell at least RM100++, very expensive.

He could have informed you about pirated kot

most the shop does offer 3bd for hkd199
old/not popular movie are in the list and they use BD25.

Sino Centre (mongkok) - basement lvl
There you can find bds below rm100
Maybe that place is where your fren saw rm50 bds
They sell english movies in Japan packing quite cheap
The packing is like what you see at Amazon JP

Those bds I cannot confirm if it is original or not
coz I haven't buy 1 to try yet . . hehe

My Toy Story 2 Blu-ray Review

Packaging : 1 BD 1 DVD comes with embossed Slipcover

Video Quality : This sequel, a film that was released 4 years after Toy Story 1, holds a lot more amount of detail to it , hence it's the vast improved on the CGI. The guys at Pixar's excellent craft finally produced yet another of my favorite "demo disc. Transfer is really top notch and the black level is pretty sold , color looks definitely vibrant. This is solid 5/5 rating from me.

Sound Quality : I would say , i've enjoyed every litte sound effects and it sound realistic. Bass was good. It got as louder as it could and i felt like my ears could go blistering if i were to crank up loud. Another 5/5 rating from me.

Bonus Material : Haven't had the chance to completely watch the Extras. I only watched the Toy Story 3 Sneak Peek in High Def and it was awesome. Waiting for my Toy Story 3 from eBay to arrive

Overall, this is a fan pleasing stuff and the DVD combo in this pack was rather useless. I would definitely recommend this for the beginners , who has the love affair with High Definition animated films.
