Movies

Yeah, so I saw a lot of movies this weekend.

Elizabeth: The Golden Age - Mediocre, at best. Slow and dragged on. Shorten it to 2 hours and it's golden. It's not, so it fails.

Michael Clayton - Amazing. Everything about it is awesome. However, it's VERY complex and mind bending. You have to think, so be prepared. I still feel like I'm missing key details of exactly what happened. Gotta see it again.

Across the Universe - Perfect is one word that comes to mind. It just works. And, contrary to many people I bet, the movie is best viewed sober. Trust me.

I only upgraded DVD to blu-ray for the movies that really benefit from HD. Such as Lord of the Rings for example. Or if I find a good deal on a blu-ray, such as Dawn of the Dead. It was 10 bucks at Walmart

That's how I approach the upgrades. Yes, I upgraded from VHS (and some LD) to DVD over time (it wasn't overnight, but I had far fewer movies then).

Before DVD is completely worthless, you should take them all to a resale shop and use the money for something not dust collecting.

With young kids, I absolutely loathe DVD technology. Ours are constantly getting scratched and messed up because the kids don't take care of them worth a shit. We end up watching old VHS tapes with the kids as much as DVDs, because at least they don't skip.

Blu-Ray would be advantageous.

Backup software has saved many DVD's from damage. DVD Shrink is my friend. I just wish it was still kept up on development.

Laserdiscs rock. I remember paying $200 for my Stars Wars Triology Collectors Edition. Original cut of the movies, with audio commentary from many of the ILM guys on the alternate audio track. Still have those.
