    Eh, CD Exchange runs from about 20.00 and up for Blu-Rays, which is more than I'm willing to pay.

    What store did you go to? I just got T2: Judgment Day for $9.99 on Blu-Ray at the Bitters store this week. It seems like most are 14.99, 17.99, or 19.99. You also have to shop regularly to check for deals. Any store can also check the inventory of all stores if there is something specific you are looking for. The also have a frequent buyer card. You fill 10 spots, you get a used item up to $9.99 for free. Two cards gets you a used item up to $19.99 for free. I'll bet I'm in the top ten card cashers in SA.

    Non Disclaimer: I am not in any way affiliated with CD Exchange, other than as a very satisfied customer.

    I went to the one off IH-10 and Wurzbach, I believe that's the Colonnade.

    I really want to see The Godfather on Blu-Ray, but I don't want to spend almost seventy dollars just yet, I need to see if anybody I know has it so I can borrow it.

    Anyone here seen it on BR yet?

    I only buy the cheaper ones. 30 bucks is too much.

    Yeah, everything that's animated looks great, Cars look awesome, especially with surround sound.

    Re-encoded, it's still 1080P but only about 10mbps.

    Yep.

    It's pretty freaking sweet.

    Let me tell you, Iron Man really shows off what 1080p is all about. Not as fantastically jaw-dropping as Planet Earth, but a marvelous movie in it's own right.

    Agreed on the Planet Earth series...mind-blowing.

    The visuals on "Across the Universe" are unbelievable...conversely, the ones on "Speed Racer" might make you vomit.

    Large list from my collection coming; I would say that Iron Man, Blade Runner, the Planet Earth series, Sunshine, Lost season 3, Rambo (2008), all the Disney Blu-rays, Batman Begins, I Am Legend, boy, Transformers, Spider-Man 3, FF: RotSS, 300, V for Vendetta, Pan's Labyrinth, Cloverfield and The Terminator are some of the must-see Blu-rays in my opinion. There are loads more but those are some of my favorites in terms of film quality and PQ of the disc.

    Highdefdigest.com is a good source for reviews of BD and even HD DVDs so you know of some good ones to pick up. Also, be sure to use Amazon if possible to buy the discs, as it's simply the best and cheapest place to get BDs from.
