Recommended Picks (Yours may vary)


This is the best Korean movie from 2011. Basically this is Apocalypto with arrows. It starts out slow but once chase starts it's non stop thrill ride. If you have good sound system you will appreciate the sound of the arrow string being pulled and let go. Also only $14.99 to boot.

Im still amused by the fact that they called a movie "NINJA ASSASSIN". Could they have found a more banal title? It screams straight to dvd POS.

1 star out of 5 This review is from: War of the Arrows [Blu-ray] (Blu-ray) One star is for lack of effort to make a film with a universal language (Enlish) It really seems like a good interesting movie,but in the Korean language, kills it for me.If other nations wish to have a better market here they need to use our language.I have seen some really good German and French films also.But they were in their own language,so i did not purchase. War of the Arrows [Blu-ray]

lulz

[StriKeVillain]

Still just waiting for Game of Thrones. Soon...

Even though, I may pick up Speed Racer. I've never seen it and I know GAF gushes over it.

[sixteen-bit]

Martha Marcy May Marlene for me

[TheKaeptain]

War of the Arrows will be mine.

[Clevinger]

Could you make the pictures a bit bigger next time? It's hard to see some of the title text. Thanks.

[Buckethead]

If you have a soul, buy Almost Famous on Amazon.

It's the extended edition and only $14 on Bluray.

Holla.

Not just banal but also redundant. Ninja(s) are by definition assassins.

Can't wait for KILLER HITMAN!

Lock the gates!




Forget Kate Hudson, this is a good movie.

Damn . . . Blu-Ray prices are dropping. Nice. Just picked up a pile of Blu-Ray discs. Of course, they were mainly just replacing DVD (largely unopened ).

[Gila]

Might as well ask this here, where's the best place to buy blu-ray steelbook editions online? (Canada shipping)

[gatti-man]

For all its cheesy-ness i really like Ninja Assasin. looks great on a quality display too.

Assassination was only one of their duties. Espionage was their main job.

Everyone buy The Prestige NOW.

I love The Prestige but BR covers that obscure the box art really piss me offffff

[swoon]

the bowery and blank city are worth a rent at least. great looks into artist communities that will never exist again.

Me too. Only really thing I have against it is that it's too damn dark at times.

NINJA ASSASSIN 2: NINJA SPY

[Kabuki Waq]

how is broken blade? does it have a satisfying ending?

[speculawyer]

Is it worth picking up? I stopped watching after the 2nd season. Not because I did not enjoy the show, it was just a change of life thing.

No idea. The wife and I watch Weeds this way. Only $19.99 at Amazon for the blu-ray right now. Way cheaper than subscribing to Showtime.

It looks like amazon has three different image sizes. Small if u search from all department. Medium if u search from movies and tv dept. Large for item page. Lesson learned.

[purple cobra]

Do you guys mostly order Blu-rays through Amazon? I remember a site called Blu-ray box set.com but it doesn't seem to exist anymore.

J Edgar is already out? I feel like that was JUST in theaters like, a month ago? WTF time, what are you doing to my head

It was Oscar bait. May as well try to recoup losses now with Oscar's around the corner.

[T Dollarz]

Martha Marcy May Marlene and maybe Unforgiven, depending on its price. Also, I think it would be better if you included newer price drops in the OP because those were already listed in an older thread. There are tons great more deals and price drops I saw when I was at Best Buy and it would be good to spread the word.

[Aaron]

Everyone buy The Prestige NOW.

Everyone should run out to watch a movie they can only see once? Maybe you skip around through it the second time, lingering on the Tesla scene, but I guessed the twist way before it was revealed so I didn't think it was really needed.

[crazy monkey]

Pusssss in boooots. So cute and awesome.

Why buy any movie then?

[Expendable.]

Top 5 of the year.

[TheKaeptain]

AVN: ALIEN VS NINJA

Wasn't that releases a year ago?

[dvdjamm]

What is this movie?



Edit: Thanks,Buckethead

[Buckethead]

World On A Wire ^^

[brianmcdoogle]

Top 5 of the year.

I wouldn't go that far, but a very solid film and definitely a top 20, maybe top 15.

[Evenball]

ZAAT in HD? i wonder what that transfer looks like. gotta be better than the red-o-vision the mst3k version had.

[Scullibundo]

Top 5 of the year.

It was good, but noooope!

[Herpes Reasons]

why are the images so small?
can hardly distinguish the titles

[Scullibundo]

I made the image sharper! The other ones look damn near pixelated by comparison!

[rhfb]

Thanks for including those great deals at the bottom of the post. Speed Racer bough!

edit: Doh! Prestige added as well. First movies I've bought in forever!

[ThirstyFly]

Wasn't that releases a year ago?

Yes, it was. Why is it listed in this batch?

Which reminds me, I really should get around to watching my copy...

[Aaron]

Not every movie is built around a big twist. Knowing the twist alters your repeat viewing so much is almost a different movie, and in this case I personally think it's worse for it. I didn't find the perfomances in the Prestige anything special, and I thought the ending is pretty contrived.

What? Knowing the twist makes every subsequent viewing of The Prestige so much better for it. The scene where Borden says goodbye to his brother is heartbreaking the second time through. For me, it's Nolan's strongest character film outside of Batman. Bale has never won my sympathy as much as in The Prestige. It also feels like the most passionate and honest film from Nolan.

Except for the part where it's an apt description of the main character of the film.

Oh, sorry to interrupt the shit attempts at wit in this thread here.

Proceed with the circle jerk.

Yeah I gotta agree with this. I definitely like it more after each time I watch it. I think it's his best film outside of the two Batman's.

[TheKaeptain]

I hate how dark Ninja Assassin was. You could not see shit in the theater.

Interesting.

I wonder if your theater is just darky dark?

I've watched the movie twice at home and it's been great both times.

I think its his best film.

Check my earlier reply. Amazon has three different image sizes for product and somehow I picked up the smallest ones.

Wasn't that releases a year ago?

This one's BD/DVD Combo.
