After buying the Terminator movies on every available format, I thought I was finally done when I bought the bluray a year or two ago. Little did I know that the picture quality was very poor. After viewing some screen caps on caps-a-holic.com, I saw quite a difference and decided to use my U&S coupon on this remastered version. The only gripe was that the special features were the same ones found on the previous version, which made me think that the studio could care less about the overall package, although they did take the time to clean up the image.
I'm glad I waited and paid only $5 for a movie I've bought numerous times before. This is the last time I will buy this movie.

Terminator 2: Judgment Day [Skynet Edition] [Blu-ray] [1991]
The Alien legacy is more vivid than ever before in this six-disc Blu-Ray collection featuring Alien, Aliens, Alien 3, and Alien: Resurrection as you've never seen them before. In addition to offering the theatrical versions of each film, the "Director's Cut" of Alien, and the "Special Edition" versions of each of the other films are also included.
Alien on BD? Yes, please! Being a big fan of the franchise I kicked myself for buying the first three movies individually even though I've bought them several times on every format. I sold the three BDs and got a good deal on the anthology which is worth it for the extras alone, not to mention the films look and sound amazing.
So what if it has Alien Resurrection included! It might make a funny coaster!

SAFFTEOTW is a fantastic sleeper comedy/drama. Even though it is more of a drama, the comedy is enough to get you invested in the characters. Carrell and Knightly have great chemistry and while the second half is heavier on the drama, it's forgivable yet overall this is a great film that will laugh, cry and be glad you didn't rent Transformers.
I love The Warriors and for a gritty New York film from the 70s the picture quality is amazing!
My only complaint is that the original theatrical cut wasn't included. I'd prefer to watch the original version without the intro and comic transitions. Either way, it's still a fun film and the picture quality alone is worth picking this up.
The Hobbit is overall a fantastic film and discrepancies with the book don't matter much to me. Ever since LOTR: ROTK ended I've been wanting to go back to the Tolkien/Jackson universe and I enjoyed every minute of The Hobbit.
PQ/AQ is fantastic and while I'm interested in seeing it in 3D, I didn't get it since the movie is split between two discs. Minor gripe.
I don't care that there are going to be two more movies! My wallet and girlfriend might not like me but I can't wait for more!

I could never accept Daniel Craig as 007 but then one day I watched Casino Royale and loved it and was impressed to how he made the role his own. Skyfall may have its plot holes and inconsistencies but it’s a great action movie that will make you care about Bond. The picture quality of this bluray is fantastic and I would personally use it as a demo disc. If you like Daniel Craig, Bond or action movies in general, check out Skyfall.
