Awesome pq and sq. a definite recommend if anyone has blu-ray out there yet. Waiting to buy Flags of Our Fathers, bet that will be awesome to see in Hi DEf. Anyone have any other recommendations?

Yep, not bad, especially for an early blu-ray release. As far as war movies, there's a lot out there. But I haven't seen most of them. Here's a link to reviews:

But I think that BHD is hard to beat at this point for the PQ, SQ, and storyline/acting combo. Definitely a reference disk. Another early title to check out is Underworld: Evolution. Kate, Leather, and Vampires. And you still get machine guns...;)

I would agree completly on BHD one of the best I've seen so far on BD but I watched Underworld last night and I was not that impressed with the PQ, I know it is supposed to be a tier 1 film and I'm not saying it looked bad but no where near as good as Black Hawk Down, Kingdom of Heaven, MI3, or many other in the tier 1 ranking.

I believe he is referencing this "Tier" rating to a thread over at the AVSforum.
Tier 0, being flawless and on down the line...

Just picked up Underworld:Evolution on Ebay. Can't wait to check it out. I found a seller with Blu-Rays at $21.98 in the door -BIN. Not bad at all. The blu-ray PS3 bluetooth remote works awesome.

Definitely a great looking title. I still have yet to sit down and actually watch the whole movie but from the random scenes I checked out it looked phenomenal.

Before BB ran out of stock on BHD last month, you could get BHD and Underworld: E off their buy one get one free list. Hard to beat that...

hey cheddar thanks for the link, I'll put it in my favs folder. Kingdom of Heaven was a very goold film as well. Ice Age 2 was nicely done, definitely a 3d look to it while viewing. Oh by the way millerman, nice system you have, somewhat identical to mine with toys. I have Mi3 on HD DVD, anyone here compare the two formats with this title? Hey mutelight I checked your links nice gear you have also, be careful with those Wii-motes, heard allot of horror stories. By the way what kind of camera gear are you using, I just picked up a sony a-100 about 2 months ago.
