rockNrollaDIM Posted January 31, 2012 Share Posted January 31, 2012 What do you mean Blu-Ray worthy? As in, "so good I'll buy it" or "something I'd wait to rent"?The Town is pretty awesome but I was kinda bored with it at the second viewing at home. Still haven't willed myself to watch the near three hour director's cut. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gopher Posted January 31, 2012 Author Share Posted January 31, 2012 Blu-Ray worthy for me means either or both of two things: the movie is the best of the best, or I at least know I'll be watching it many more times. Most recent Blu-Ray buys were Anchorman, 50/50, Once and Moneyball. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
acsc1312 Posted January 31, 2012 Share Posted January 31, 2012 I caught the last 40ish minutes of Black Swan last night on HBO and it reminded just how good it really is. I saw it 3 times in theaters and when I first bought the blu ray, but I hadn't revisited it since mid last year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BK007 Posted February 1, 2012 Share Posted February 1, 2012 Blu-Ray worthy for me means either or both of two things: the movie is the best of the best, or I at least know I'll be watching it many more times. Most recent Blu-Ray buys were Anchorman, 50/50, Once and Moneyball.I think for me the most important aspect to determine Blu-Ray worthiness is whether or not the film will hold up on repeat viewings rather than being a "you should watch this for so and so's performance/set-piece/visuals etc." after all, you realize once you've seen or own enough films, there's not enough time to revisit films that don't hold up. Who wants to sit through something again just to say, "Well, I guess I enjoyed that." Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rockNrollaDIM Posted February 1, 2012 Share Posted February 1, 2012 I've got a problem, I feel a need to keep buying blu-rays, I do have a criteria in that I have to like them but it's not like how I used to be with buying DVD's, where I'd only buy DVD's that I'd end up rewatching 40 times. Now I have a bunch of blu's I haven't even watched yet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lately I've tried to limit myself to only stuff I know I'll watch over and over. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rockNrollaDIM Posted February 1, 2012 Share Posted February 1, 2012 I felt guilty after I wrote that so now I'm watching the Golden Compass which I've only seen once, in theaters, and have had the blu sitting on my shelf for almost a year. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
