QUOTE(pratt @ Jan 14 2009, 07:14 PM) Tomb Raider I would give both PQ and AQ 4.5. Yes worth getting. Even the the presence of Angelina Jolie is already worth getting without any feedback from others Thanks pratt 4 da feedback... and yes, Angie Jolie...wow-wow-wee     you're absolutely right there, my friend...  Now, off to the cart..._____________________________________________________________________________________ BTW, my parcel finally arrives today...

QUOTE(Berserker @ Jan 15 2009, 12:09 AM) Did the kastam ever charge for the bluray or cd related purchase from amazon? Out of 2 & half years I've been purchasing dvds/bds from Amazon via standard shipping, I've never been taxed by our kastam so far. Probably due to the fact that I'll make sure my total order not exceeding RM500 |

QUOTE(wintzen @ Jan 15 2009, 10:33 AM) yeah sellers here are good! It could be the grain from the source film material & that's normal if its not too intrusive. Grain on purpose by filmmakers/studios like what Jep mentioned is ok (like Casino Royale early b&w scene or in 300) btw, i want to ask i have purchase spiderman trilogy and have tried running it on my ps3, when i watching it, it seems like there's a lot of small particles running around. could it because that i am not using a full hd tv? i am currently using samsung lcd, an old model but inconsistantly done like in Transformers... is not ok, to my eyes dat is  |

QUOTE(wintzen @ Jan 15 2009, 03:07 PM) so guys? standard shipping ok to malaysia? or fastest shipping? Bro, I onli use standard shipping all this while....onli USD$4.99. If expedited shipping oredi USD$13.99, and priority/courier sudah USD$29.99 - walao weh....  if you buy bulk like all the sifoos around here (at least 20 per order?) then use courier, worth it la.... but tax another issue pulak.  Standard shipping from Amazon UK is much faster than US, but got to be careful which title u order... is not region locked. Don't think2 la bro, just take the 3-for-2 deal... expires Jan 16 (here, maybe until 4 pm on Saturday?) |

QUOTE(wintzen @ Jan 15 2009, 05:28 PM) @fadthill Standard shipping delivery from US to M'sia normally will take around 10-14 days if no hiccups like festive season delay or others. The order received yesterday took about 3 weeks & 2 days to arrive (X'mas traffic). The longest I've to wait was 7 weeks!! i see.....normally how long they deliver? reliable ah? But after I received the parcel finally, I dropped them an email & they gave me a USD$10 voucher to use on my next order (dat is sooo good, worth the wait!)Reliable ah? Hmmm.... from there - YES, here.... only our Kastam/Pos can answer dat Added on January 16, 2009, 12:15 am QUOTE(evolutionize @ Jan 16 2009, 12:07 AM) no it was less than rm500, to be exact it was just one movie.. i guess i'll seek for a refund from Amazon..anyway thanks for the help. Only 1 movie? Definitely kena "kebas" one... Ask for a replacement one la if you still want the same title. Usually for the replacement order, they will use the faster expedited shipping.Added on January 16, 2009, 12:20 am QUOTE(megatron007 @ Jan 15 2009, 10:25 PM) X-Men (2000) and X-Men 2: X-Men United are due Apr 21. Any chance for a X-Men trilogy & Fast & Furious quadrilogy boxset? The Fast And The Furious, 2 Fast 2 Furious, The Fast And The Furious: Tokyo Drift are all due May 28.

QUOTE(robinlim @ Jan 16 2009, 09:09 AM) Fast & Furious 4 will only be released in theater this year lar, bro Yup, I'm aware of dat. if were to get the quadrilogy boxset, earliest next year only  As usual, this will be a marketing strategy by Universal... just like what they did to The Mummy franchise, they released the first 2 Mummy series prior to the 3rd one coming to theatre. Wait for a few months later, they release everything in boxset - dats when I'll buy, better deal la... no need to pay extra 'per item' charge crap Added on January 16, 2009, 9:56 am QUOTE(piscesguy @ Jan 16 2009, 07:57 AM) Vertical Limit SQ and PQ 5/5. good reference movie. Eh, I got this title for more than a month oredi, unopen yet...  now baru teringat ley . Will check this one this weekend...This post has been edited by fadthil: Jan 16 2009, 09:56 AM |

QUOTE(xbox360ps3 @ Jan 16 2009, 03:55 PM) i wonder how u guys managed to reach 200/300 club when i just reached 12 already drained my pocket? i guess i am in wrong line of work. Wrong line of work or wrong hobby... dont know whether this is good or bad things about sony, but just want to share with you guys. i fully paid for sony home theater ht-sf2300 last friday from sony 1 utama and was promised to have it delivered to me by today. then today sony call center said cannot deliver it and no idea when it will be in stock. the earliest should be after chinese new year. as replacement, they will loan the display set and have it exchange when my unit arrived.  Lesson learnt... don't buy from Sony Center, hehe... nolah, I'm joking. Dat model must've been selling well especially nowadays... festive season, "bonus" & all... A good HD-HTIB set for starters I guess, too bad it's only 5.1... |

I couldn't make up my mind on a few titles for the 3-for-2 deal at Amazon b4 it expires. One of them is Payback: Director's Cut. Is dis one any good?
I've seen the original theatrical cut & kinda fancy its blue-ish/monotone/bleached look and I've read a REVIEW that it's all missing from this dir's cut and also some scenes/character. Anyone, opinion? BTW, I love this movie..... the ori one dat is... |

QUOTE(danmooncake @ Jan 18 2009, 01:37 AM) You gotta be kidding.. Ya, I've seen this crap. I think House of Wax is way better... This is the WORST horror movie I've ever seen.  Stay away from this movie.. if wanna watch, just get the DVD version. Not worth the BD media at all. |

QUOTE(horray @ Jan 18 2009, 06:49 AM) Agreed...I have the HD DVD version. I particularly enjoyed 2 parts of the movie: 1. The Bontosaurus stampede and 2. The T-Rex vs King Kong sequences of the movie. Hmm...come to think of it, that's the only part of the movie I enjoyed. The only thing I like about King Kong was the 2-disc Production Diaries DVD! Very good PQ though. But having said that, the technical qualities of King Kong like the PQ & AQ must be good & worth getting on High Definition... not so much of the story, generally |

Anyone tried order from here: CD-WOW! Eventhough price slightly costly, its free shipping to M'sia! And you can choose which currency you prefer to buy it with (eg. USD, GBP, Aussie $, German etc - select on the upper-right corner of the website). BD sold from Region A (US & Asia) & B (UK & Aussie). But I have yet to order anything from here....
