Just get the movie you like.

Unless you want to test your audio and visual system. Then try below few awesome 4K HDR, Dolby Atmos/DTS titles

- Blade Runner 2049
- Dunkirk
- The Greatest Showman
- Kong: Skull Island
- Murder on the Orient Express
- Overlord
- Ready Player One
- Schindler's List
- The Shining
- Arrival
- E.T. the Extra-Terrestrial
- First Man
- The Martian
- The Phantom of the Opera
- Blue Planet II

does anybody still dwell into the black friday sales on amazon since friday... or no one here has any interest in physical copy anymore? laugh.gif

i think the price of blu-ray and 4k titles not as alluring as they used to be years ago. blush.gif but i bought some, because some titles i held back from purchasing during streetdate releases, so they're quite a good bargain.

i just have this disease of impulse purchase, especially during black friday... cannot tahan the cheap price reduction laugh.gif yup... actually it's for keeping (for collection)! some movies just nice for holding and looking at the covers etc; and not just watching the movies in them... if to just watch, then can go to netflix or other 'sources' whistling.gif

btw, do you consider selling the unopenend collections after a few years...? sometimes i do feel that – wanted to sell those titles and then repurchase later on those with a bundle-up or in boxsets which are value for money and bang for the buck while save on shipping per item fee! cool2.gif

I do not have that many unopened titles. should be less than 20.
don't think I will sell it since it will make a lot effort to sell that tiny unopened collection.

Actually now I am more enjoying watching those cover at TV or PC monitor, can select whatever version I want and make it nice.

I already nearly 90% completed re-encoded to digital media for all my blu-ray collection. Haha!

My shelf is full, so not buying any already. Haha!

Maybe wait for next - blu-ray 8K tongue.gif

I always skip a version. Haha!

I buy Video Tape, don't buy Laser Disc.
I buy VCD, not buying much DVD.
I buy Blu-ray, not buying much UHD Blu-ray. Haha!
