zallapo Posted July 17, 2007 Posted July 17, 2007 Just bought Con Air on Blu-ray today and Disney have once again put out an amazing looking/ sounding disc. PQ is razor sharp and ultra clean, but I did notice a few tiny bits of dust and scratches here and there. Sound comes in the usual Uncompressed PCM and Dolby Digital and is very impressive (I only can listen to the latter). A little bare on the Special Features side, but hey, that isn't why I buy an HD disc these days. PQ and SQ are fantastic which is what matters most, and is ABC region free. $35.99 from JB Hifi.

I bought 'THE ROCK' today. packaging style is identical to con-air. a bit concerning was a DTS HD MA logo on the back in the audio specs. I take it there is no such audio format on the disc. Anyhow, haven't had a chance to check it out yet, but i'm sure it won't dissapoint.
HOMETHEATREMANIAC Posted July 17, 2007 Posted July 17, 2007 Picked up Kingdom of Heaven today at JB $33.00 and saw Hollywoodland at Big W. Was 38.00 Seems to be a lot of releases at the moment.

Probably the biggest blu-ray week since launch.

I'm gonna show restraint, and wait for the POTC trilogy to be released as a box set. Kingdom of Heaven for $33 sounds like a (insert sarcasm) bargain. Now where can I get it besides JB HiFi.
