blu-ray

I bought a new laptop and it comes with a blu-ray player. I really don't want to spend a bunch of money on movies I already have. But sacrifices must be made and Costco had an excellent deal on 7 blu-ray DVDs for 129.99

So I now own:
Spiderman
Spiderman 2 / 2.1
Spiderman 3
Ghostrider
Hell Boy
Underworld
Underworld Evolution

I have watched Spiderman 2, Hell Boy, and Underworld.

I have always thought the Spiderman movies looked...cheesy. Lets face it, all of the movies look totally fake. Hell Boy looked much better in the theaters than any of the Spidey movies. And now I have seen them on Blu-ray, and ya know what?

It looks even cheesier. The clearer picture makes the CGI look even worse. Spiderman looked clean, crisp, clear, and totally horrible! Hell Boy looked pretty decent except for a couple of scenes. Underworld for some reason looked really good. None of the CGI looked cheesy or strange or anything.

I wonder how Ghostrider will turn out?

The Happening

The Happening.

I don't even to have to see it to tell you how good its going to be.

The beginning is gonna be spooky and draw us in.

The middle is going to shock us and make us hold our breath for the ending.

The ending...is going to blow chunks.

You know why? Cause it is a M. Night Shamalayan movie.

So far 6th Sense and Signs have been his only good throughout movies. Signs kind of blew at the end, seriously Aliens try to conquer a planet that is 70% of a think that will kill them. A planet where death literally rains from above!!!! And are you telling me that Farmer Gibson never turned on his sprinklers for his corn crop.
