Xbox 360 HD DVD deal at Best Buy

[dreamcastrocks]

I did think about Departed, but I went with movies I haven't yet seen but know are good and that I don't already have on DVD anyway.

Right. I am pretty sure that I would enjoy Disturbia, and I already owned most of the biggies. (300, Transformers, Departed, etc)

I was really torn. I normally buy my movies for around the $12 or $13 price range at the most, so it pretty much works out, but I have the two movies in hand.

Where do you buy your HD Dvd movies from, generally?

Where do you buy your HD Dvd movies from, generally?

buy.com is a HUGE one.

You can get $10 off by using Google checkout.

You can use it over and over. Just don't use the same credit card at the same time. (wait until you receive the movie before you purchase another. There are a TON of movies that you can buy for around $12 shipped after the $10 off. The more credit cards you use, the more often you can use it.

Speaking of Shane....

how many HDDVD did you end up getting from Buy.com? I ended up getting around 10 total between HDDVD and Bluray.

For the record, I prefer HDDVD when I have the choice.

Which ones should I pick?

That looks like a UK offer.

Yep. We don't live across the pond. Those are better movies.. you got me all excited.

 

[azsouthendzone]

All i know is that I will be getting Babel and Full Metal jacket. The rest are I guess "meh" , i think that is the new chatroom term for them.

 

[D-Dogg]

Flip!

 

[azsouthendzone]

I may be in the minority, but World Trade Center is an excellent HD DVD, one of my favorites. Those lucky blokes in the UK....

 

[abomb]

Play your cards right and Good Luck Chuck should be available in no time!

The Prestige was a hell of a movie. Serenity is another one.

Those are some great movies.

I should have known without even looking at all of the UK stuff on the papers. The Presige is a Bluray only movie here in the states. That's why I had to buy the BR.

 

[D-Dogg]

Ok, then...help me choose now:

Aeon Flux
Babel
The Italian Job

Figure that is better than TIJ.

The Hulk
Pitch Black
The Thing

??? HATE Pitch Black. HATE.

Charlie and the Chocolate Factory
Swordfish
Full Metal Jacket

I like it and the kids like it. Should look awesome.

The Frighteners
U2: Rattle & Hum
Firewall

???

Black Rain
Darkman
Troy

???

I am also going to go Babel. If you hate pitch black, then you have to go The Thing. It is a classic horror movie, in fact, that may be my choice over Pitch Black. Definitely going Charlie and the Chocolate Factory over those others, it is visually stunning.

The Frighteners
U2: Rattle & Hum
Firewall

This is a horrible category. I have no interest in any of these movies especially U2, so I will flip a coin between Frighteners and Firewall.

Black Rain
Darkman
Troy

Another bad category. Too bad it isn't Purple Rain, I'd do that route. I have no idea which to pick from these ones.

 

[azsouthendzone]

I would be embarrassed to own Troy.

Is the Thing the original?

 

[dreamcastrocks]

Yes it is. I wouldn't be embarrassed, but I may have to go Troy.

 

[D-Dogg]

Yeah, I am easily going with Troy in that one. Not a bad movie. Wife loves her some Orlando..and it will likely look sick in HD.

 

[D-Dogg]

I've never heard of the frighteners. Peter Jackson made it, it's a 7 on IMDB...Mike J Fox. Looks corny. I don't understand.

fwiw, my ex really, really liked The Frighteners. I haven't seen it, but for the most part he & I agreed on movies. My older 2 liked it as well.

 

[abomb]

Get U2: Rattle and Hum. I think it won an Oscar or something.

Absolutely ZERO interest.

Absolutely ZERO interest.

It'd be a great demo of the audio and video capabilities of your setup.

Why would I want to demo it? I already bought it.

I poop on Rattle and Hum!

Yeah that.
