![]() | Stargate (Extended Cut) [Blu-ray]
Buy new: $7.99 / Used from: $5.00 The first movie I ever bought on DVD. This version doesn't really add much beside picture quality. The original movie was shot in a very fast 35mm stock, so there is a lot of noise to the picture. All hairs/defects/etc. were pulled from the print, and this was mastered well. Audio has more pop compared to the basic version and the special edition released a few years ago.

![]() | The Fifth Element (Remastered) [Blu-ray]
Buy new: $14.99 / Used from: $10.48 This is the second go at T5E on BD. Apparently the first was so abysmal that Sony recalled it. The result is a top notch re-do of the Luc Besson instant classic.

![]() | Blade Runner (Five-Disc Complete Collector's Edition) [Blu-ray]
Buy new: $21.99 / Used from: $16.99 The re-master and fixes to this movie are so amazing the movie could have been made last year. A perfectly crisp transfer of the director's cut, this is the edition to buy. Previous DVD releases don't even come close to the detail provided here. Ridley Scott's obsessive attention to detail pays off in this release.

![]() | Iron Man (Ultimate Two-Disc Edition + BD Live) [Blu-ray]
Buy new: $19.49 / Used from: $13.99 One of the releases in my collection that I have never seen in DVD. This was a buy-on-sight after seeing the movie in the theater. As a modern age movie, one expects perfection from the transfer, and this disc delivers.
|
![]() | Batman Begins [Blu-ray]
Buy new: $11.49 / Used from: $8.87 This was one of my first BD buys. I had this movie on DVD, and it was phenomenal already, but BD kicks it into overdrive. Every detail is available in even the darkest scenes thanks to VC-1 encoding. Brilliant disc.
|
![]() | The Dark Knight (+ BD Live) [Blu-ray]
Buy new: $12.99 / Used from: $9.99 I saw this movie opening night at a midnight showing. I didn't want to see it again until it came out on disc in order to fully appreciate the work that went into it. Another flawless transfer, and the jump from Panavision to IMAX is amazing. Color in the day scenes is beyond real, and shadows hold detail well in the night scenes.

![]() | Serenity [Blu-ray]
Buy new: $17.99 / Used from: $15.39 I'm going to gush a little. This movie is up there with T5E and a small handful of others on my lists of favorite movies of all time. I jumped on the opportunity to own this in BD, and it has really paid dividends. The PQ is perfect perfect perfect. The sound is outstanding, and the extras are superb. If you're a browncoat, you'll love this disc.

![]() | Kill Bill - Volumes 1 & 2 [Blu-ray] (Amazon.com Exclusive)
Buy used from: $34.38 The DVD of this pair of movies was already excellent. I'm a huge fan of Tarantino, ever since seeing Reservoir Dogs at a party in high school. This disc set is wonderfully detailed and the audio is excellent. I wish there were more exclusive features, because I love listening to Q ramble on like a fan boy over movies.
