Do you need to watch "Firefly" to understand this? I was led to believe that it was a continuation of Firefly?

I saw the movie (Serenity, I mean) on HD DVD, didn't like it at all as it has a B-grade feel to it! Looks like a low budget production. But got very good reviews though. shocking.gif rclxub.gif

Talking about submarine...finished watching Crimson Tide yesterday night. Surprising very good PQ and PCM AQ (4/5). But the movie's storyline is absolutely brilliant! Watched it before on Astro but nothing compared to watching it on BD and HT. Nail biting affair! rclxm9.gif icon_idea.gif rclxms.gif sweat.gif

Where's the cheapest place to buy BD in Singapore? HMV or Gramophone?
*
Gramophone, I think. But overall, Amazon is still cheaper!

And their currency lagi strong, S$1.47 = US$1.  whistling.gif

IIANM, a BD at HMV is selling for S$59.99 which is about RM142+. So, in effect, Singapore is selling BD cheaper than Speedy in Malaysia! Buy! Buy! Buy! brows.gif

poor guy like me can only afford 50".....what to do  sad.gif

Wah! 50" still not big enough! Gulp! I watched Journey to Center of the Earth 3D on my small TV (dare not even mention the size!) and the 3D effect was pretty cool but the colour was totally off! Maybe it is because of the glasses. Felt dizzy after watching a while. rclxub.gif

Maybe it would be better if Bolt comes out on 3D BD. hmm.gif

I understand that. Not expecting a 3K tv to provide a one for one visual quality of a cinema - but have you guys seen how bad these 3D bluray titles are?
*
For Journey to the Center of the Earth 3D, the PQ is obviously not satisfactory from the colour point of view but the overall 3D experience is still fun. thumbup.gif Imagine that this is not even possible at all in the past to watch on your home TV and now it is possible through BD albeit not so great PQ. I think if given a good storyline and in 3D (unfortunately Journey is not), then I believe it would be worth while watching if you have missed the cinema version. doh.gif

I didn't watch Journey in the cinema and therefore I am quite satisfied with the overall experience (3D and AQ) but not the PQ. rclxms.gif

Warner Announces Batman Anthology Blu-ray Box Set
Posted in Studios, US Releases on January 7th, 2009 by Dave

user posted imageWarner has finally announced the Batman Anthology (1989 - 1997) for Blu-ray release, covering the Tim Burton and Joel Schumacher Batman movies.

While Euroland appears to be getting single disc releases of these four titles, the US is getting them all in a box set - so no way to avoid the hideous movie Batman & Robin.

Extras include over 18 hours of special features including documentaries from Directors Tim Burton and Joel Schumacher, deleted scenes and music videos!

Retail is expected to be $129.95 and the set is due out March 10th 2009.
*
Amazon UK is also releasing it for only GBP36 which is a steal if you like the first 4 batman movies. It's scheduled to be out on 16 March. Check this out: Batman Legacy.

Just got this from Amazon UK:

If you're a fan of The Police or Sting, this is a MUST have in your collection. PQ is awesome - very clean transfer and AQ is lossless TrueHD. It also comes in 2 CD's! Great value for money! rclxm9.gif

King Kong BD  hmm.gif  Only a portion of the movie is interesting. The other parts.... Zzzzzzzz...

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. doh.gif Very good PQ though. whistling.gif

Wah...Tun Mega already graduated!...Need to give ang pow next year! Hope you enjoy giving ang pow! blush.gif

I have been receiving good luck ang pow only for the last 10 years from my parents and parents-in-law. Otherwise, it's outflow all the way! cry.gif

Just got back to Klang Valley today...North South highway is very clear! Phew! Maybe get chance to catch up on BD the next few days.

BTW, I tried connecting my PS3 to a 46" Samsung LCD TV (via HDMI) to test but somehow cannot get the audio output right! Only got background music but no dialogue. Any ideas? icon_question.gif

No lar...my father-in-law punya...he bought a 46" Series 6 Full HD recently and I brought my PS3 to test the PQ. Somehow, the audio had issues. Maybe cannot decode. Don't know why.

Batu Caves is in Selangor, right? that's why Selangor can have thaipusam as public holiday mah? hmm.gif

how come my calender shows wilayah is not included eh? hmm.gif
anyway, it's still a good news for wilayah to have thaipusam as a holiday rclxm9.gif

Selangor was generous enough to lend Batu Caves to Wilayah to allow them a day off as well! whistling.gif

Yes, Wilayah is listed as a public holiday for Thaipusam. I thought it was never for Wilayah but I guess I was wrong to assume so. notworthy.gif
