I;m a huge tremors fan i have all 4 movies and the entire series on DVD...and i still watv them several times a year.
Tremors has just the right amount of everything i think it's the kind of movie you'll want to watch again and again.
i'm very happy it's coming to blu-ray i can't wait to buy it in november so if you are the kind of person who likes old tme desert monster movies with plenty of scares and laughs then this is for you ENJOY! BECAUSE I KNOW I WILL.....
What's great about it: Are you kidding ? everything is great about this movie
What's not so great: only one thing which is they stopped makng the tremors movies
If you are a marvel fan or even if you are not this is a fun movie with great effects...now i have this movie on DVD as well and i can tell you that i have seen both dvd and blu-ray versions on the same tv with all the same settings and the blu-ray definately looks and sounds better than the dvd imo...
What's great about it: the acting and the effects
What's not so great: needed alittle more action i think...
Still grieving the tragic death of her parents, Elena Gilbert (Nina Dobrev) returns to Mystic Falls High School with hopes of reconnecting with her friends and nurturing what family she has left. All hopes of a normal year fade, however, when she meets Stephen Salvatore (Paul Wesley), a new student, and his brother, Damon (Ian Somerhalder). The siblings share more than just dark good looks, a deep interest in Elena - they're both vampires, and one of them won't stop until he's gotten a taste of Elena's blood.

Ok i might be bias little here but i think this is f the best TV series of this genre ....let me break it down for you.
1. the storyline is interesting and complex but not hard to follow
2. They actually follow "THE REAL RULES OF VAMPIRES" or at least close enough for me.
3. it's perfectly cast and the acting is great the actors really inhabit those roles no apparent OVER ACTING here.and it doesn't hurt that the cast is pretty above average in the looks deparment and they don't stare at the ground and mumble their lines with there eyes half open...they are there awake and getting the job done in brilliant form. I have to admit when i first heard about this show i wasn't expecting much however i soon realized that this is one awesome show well written and well acted..
What's great about it: Oh everything really don't like "uncle john too much though.
What's not so great: uncle john gilbert from season two needs his hand cut off..
No one can go wrong with this movie it's very well done it's a laugh a minute it keeps your interest it has a good pace great wrighting great acting great cast and a ton of extras including both theatrical and extended versions of the film and it's a great blu-ray transfer! but be warned don't get this movie unless you really like to laugh until your sides hurt because they will.......
What's great about it: everything
What's not so great: nothing it's a great movie that i'll watch again and again...

i have had this series as well as hercules for years now on DVD and it is awesome intense and funny the acting is spot on and so it the production value in fact it's much better than the garbage the put on TV these days and if i were rich i would get a new tv and a blu ray player so i could buy this in the blu ray format but i work for a living so thats not an option for me...still it is great....
I don't own the DVD yet but i will soon i do watch the show every week however and it's fresh clever smart funny well acted directed and written.
Futermore no one seems out of place on this show they are all very well suited for thier charactors the show is a hoot! and i always look forward to seeing it.
What's great about it: Everything
What's not so great: When a seasons over it always seems like the future of the show is up in the air
Transferred to DVD in a widescreen anamorphic picture format (1.85:1), this film comes with only a single audio track option, Dolby 2.0 Stereo, a deficit partly compensated by the DTS Surround Sound. Closed-captioning is also included. Among the bonus features are an audio commentary by actors David Naughton and Griffin Dunne; interviews with Rick Baker and John Landis; a making-of documentary/featurette; production stills, notes, and storyboards; and the usual theatrical trailers. Picture quality is what would be expected from an '80s film brought over to a DVD version.

This is my all time favorite movie and i have been saying that consistantly since 1981 i can't tell you how many times i have seen it it's that good.
THIS WAS WAYYYY BETTER THAN THE OTHER HULK (the Hulk). This one had good action, pretty good camera work, but it was missing something. Watch it and see for yourself.

Seen it 4 times
July 6, 2010
I saw this movie in the theater twice and on blue ray twice and it looks and sounds better on blu-ray then it did at the IMAX this is a great movie but i do think they should have had more of the hulk jumping and running like they did in the first hulk movie which i didn't think was that bad i thought the hulk parts were pretty good.
Really enjoyed this movie. I feel like this has the potential to be the next lord of the rings or Harry potter. The story is great. I am hoping this does well enough to release the next book to movie.

Better than harry potter i think
August 23, 2010
This movie seems alot fresher than something like harry potter it has a good pace to it a good story and good special effects.
i can't wait for the next ones to come out the acting was pretty good over all but i want there to be alittle more character development in the next one.
so if you like harry potter and the cronicles of narnia then you'll like this because it doesn't really bog down quite as much as the other two...they are good but i think this might be alittle better...and alittle more imaginative perhaps.
Movie was better than I expected...but what really blew me away was how good this bluray looks. Spectacular colors, no noise or grain....crystal clear picture.
If all blurays looked like this, everyone would want one. If you have a new high def bluray setup and want to show your friends what it can do, highly recommend this movie.

loved it !
September 26, 2010
this movie like just about every other movie has it's flaws however if you are a superman fan and you like great acting action and special effects like i do then you'll really enjoy this adaptation/addtion to the legend. there are some really outstanding and memorable scene's in this film....
ps: if you watch the same film day in and day out regardless of the film you will eventually learn how to hate it.....fyi
A great movie made better in blu-ray. You can pick out lots more details easier now than on the dvd or even from having seen it on the big screens in theaters.

Really really good on blu-ray!
October 4, 2010
Ok i just watched this movie again on blu-ray and i have to say that to me this looks like a perfect blu-ray transfer not just during parts of the movie but the entife film... the story and the acting etc is spot on never really any dull moments to speak of very good all the way around and i think it's perfectly cast you will definately get your moneys worth with this one great extra too! one minor suggestion though you may want to adjust your tv brightness alittle because alot of the scences are taken at night

Great halloween movie
October 4, 2010
I can't say enough good things about this movie it was everything i thought it should be one thing i can definately say is that it is a perfect blu-ray transfer all the way through the movie the action acting tone look and sound are all great i think anyone who buys the movie won't be let down it's just alot of fun and very well done!
This movie is one of the funniest movies of all time! Ben Stiller plays the ego maniac jock in the world of Dodgeball, while Vince Vaughn owns a small gym where geeky weaklings hang out. After several funny events, the two characters end up facing eachother and other teams in a Dodgeball tournament. The tournament was when I really noticed the audio, hearing the perfect ring of red rubber smacking against a face. This movie rocks!

A TRULY FUNNY MOVIE!
October 10, 2010
This is a great well written and well acted comedy with many funny moments and gag's.. I just got through watching this blu-ray version for the second time this week! it is a great/PERFECT blu-ray transfer in fact i don't think it could look or sound any better. so if you want to roll on the floor laughing DEFINATELY get this movie the" wrench training" sequence alone is worth the price of the movie....
Another great marvel character taken into the world of blu-ray. Definition of the movie is outstanding. Plus throw in all the extra features and you have a great movie. The plot was pretty good for an action type movie but could of used a little more character developement and tried to stay closer to the comics.

Makes me sad
October 10, 2010
That this movie was critically underrated and the fact that there hasn't been another daredevil movie yet ! make no mistake this is a great movie i'll admit i'm not a huge ben affleck fan but he is at his very best here this role was perfect for him and of course the blu-ray version looks awesome. my advise is don't believe anyone who tells you this isn't a good movie because it certainly is and it's more than worth getting on blu-ray....
The studios are starting the bait and switch under the Blu-ray banner.. Bought this movie to update my video collection to Blu-ray. Realized after the fact that the video is not 1080p HD. Specs says MPEG 2 @ 18 MBPS. Video doesn't look any different than my standard DVD copy version . Studios are starting to downgrade Blu-ray quality without informing the consumer. Make sure if you are buying Blu-ray movies from 20th Century Fox to read the specs to make sure you're getting full 1080p since they seem to be the only studio downgrading at this point or just check them all to be sure.

on my tv
October 25, 2010
i have an insignia NS-37L550A11 LCD HDTV AND A SONY BDP-N460... and the blu-ray version definately looks like any other blu-ray on this set and blu-ray player certainly much sharper and more colorful than the DVD version i have taken a good hard look at both versions on this set. so AVC @18MBS doesn't seem to matter at all it's still a blu-ray in terms of the way it looks and sounds i looked for flaws in the blu-ray and could not find any.. i suppose some disks might not be as good as others or on other HDTVS but on mine this is definately blu-ray quality all the way.
This would be worth picking up if it was the Extended Edition and some extras. Save your money and wait for the extended editions.

it's worth getting anyway
November 27, 2010
As it turns out there are some special features on the DVD that comes with it. i believe in having more than one set of these movies they are that great
It is truly a great movie...Wish I could enjoy watching it. My BluRay drive on my computer will not play it, and I cannot find updates or anything so that I can play it. They are obviously open now, and if I can't enjoy them at home what can I do? Feel a little helpless....good movie though

This is not a good way to watch this movie het yourself at least a 37in 120hrz flatty and a sony blu-ray player for you living room it'll play it and you'll be glad you did make the investment. watching it on your computer is not the way to go anyway not with this movie unless it's on DVD....
