Is the BR a noticeable upgrade on the DVD then? As you say its a personal favourite of mine and would love it on BR, but only if there's a massive increase in visual quality. :)
 
None for 2 reasons.
Love film, which works out much cheaper and the fact I built up a huggggeeee dvd collection for it to be outdated. Blu-ray will be outdated even faster. You only have to look at mp3s and the way lovefilm, blinkbox, voddler are going. Will wait till such services start overing blu-ray quality downloads.

Definitely a step up, obviously the DVD is pretty poor, well the version I have, the sound alone is worth it, but the pictures are definitely a massive improvement over the DVD, worth a buy.

Nice one. :) I read some BR review site reviews and the verdict wasn't brilliant. And unless the reviews on Amazon etc are massively in favour of a BR version of a film I tend to ignore them as the reviews on sites like Amazon do tend to be a bit off target. :p
 
Blade Runner
Band of Brothers
Serenity (though to my shame, not Firefly yet... Christmas present I hope)
V for Vendetta

small list - basically it's either films I love and will watch again and again, or films/TV that deserve to be seen in hi def.

On my "to buy" list:

Battlestar Galactica (new version)
Firefly
Lord of the Rings
 
what hd-dvds have you re-bought on blu ray?

My blade runner hd-dvd got scratched to hell as has "The Island".

I do have BoB on DVD and I'm really tempted to get on Blu-ray and Fight Club is one I really want
 
Bought:
All the Pixar films released so far (hurry the %&*$ up with Nemo and The Incredibles, thanks), FF7: Advent Children (waaay longer version of the film to boot), Nolan Batman films... I think that's about it. I was never a massive DVD collector so I haven't had to replace too much and deliberately stopped buying once Blu-Ray was established so I wouldn't have to replace more.

'To buys':
Matrix Trilogy,
5th Element
LOTR: Extended Editions, whenever they're out (and hopefully better quality than the normal lot)

It's great that you can get a lot of things now for under a tenner, and even something huge like the new collector's edition of Avatar can be had for under £15 in regular supermarkets and high street stores.
