The first range of Bond on Blu Ray releases...
- Dr. No
- From Russia With Love
- Thunderball
- Live and Let Die
- For Your Eyes Only
- Die Another Day

to coincide with my brand new PS3 coming next week. :(

Good deal. Also, the PS3 is reputed to be the best Blu-ray player on the market. I have one and I love the functionality of my PS3.

The Bond movies look great on Blu-ray with striking color and detail and fantastic audio. Perhaps the weakest transfer in the first wave is For Your Eyes Only, but even that Blu-ray is very impressive and blows the Ultimate Edition DVD away.

Brilliant!

Oh, my dear friend. I wonder if you could tell me something. The 'Inside' documentary's have apparently been remade, could you confirm this for me? and If so, what has been changed about them?

I see the second movie isn't on Blu-Ray yet.

I saw that as well. I am probably in the minority in that I actually prefer the second Tomb Raider movie.

The Princess Bride. I've never seen this movie, but the book is great, and I'm constantly hearing about what a classic the movie is. I've watched a few clips on YouTube, and they were pretty good.

I just picked up Fast Times At Ridgemont High, 12 Angry Men, and Lust, Caution. I was looking for Volume 4 of the Bond UEs, but only one store had it, and it was $10 more than it would've been at a different store.

I think the last DVD I bought was the two-disc special edition of Cloverfield. It was on sale for £7, and since I never got around to seeing it in the cinema, I figured "what the heck" and got it. Pretty good, I thought.

I know what my next DVD is - Quantum of Solace.
