Best (and Worst) High-Def Discs of 2006

Posted by ryuzaki0 on from the buyer-beware dept.

An anonymous reader writes "High-Def Digest has released their first annual 'Best (and Worst) of the Year' list of movies released on HD DVD and/or Blu-ray. Not surprisingly, the 'best' list is heavy on superheroes. Superman, Batman, and the Hulk all made the list. Not a bad cheat sheet for those of us with a Blu-ray capable PS3 or an XBox 360 HD DVD add-on on our Christmas lists."

    Ugh. You and your friends obviously have no taste at all.

    Go back to watching fucking Borat again, fellate your personal Will Ferrell doll, and leave actual movies to those with a modicum of intelligence and taste.

    (Except for MI:3. That freakin' scientologist won't get a dime from me).

    I for one have to admit I fail to see the point in HD.

    As a kid I saw movies every chance I could get if they appealed to me. There's nothing like seeing a great movie on the big screen (and in those days they were big, not the piddly little things they have at multiplexes these days).

    Today with the cost of going to the cinema I keep an eye on the up-coming trailers. On the rare occasion I see a movie that appears to have a good story line + good SFX I'll spring for the ticket. If it has good story line but SFX are not major part of the film I'll wait for the DVD.

    Even on the largest wide-screen TV SFX can't match that of the cinema screen. I'd personally prefer a decent audio system giving cinematic quality reproduction. Audio atmospherics enhance the experience to a far greater degree than visual.

    Just my $0.02

    I am so fucking sick of this elitist attitude on /. when it comes to music and movies.

    FUCK YOU ASSHOLE!!!!

    obviously some people liked these movies as they made huge fucking profits in the theatre and DVD sales.

    Just because you didn't like it means it sucks. I am sure the other 500 guys who fucked your girlfriend in the ass before you met her thought it sucked but you seem content with it.

    Man I wish you would just go home and kill you fucking self.

    God I hate you. You embody everything wrong with the world today.

    YOU SUCK.
    MERRY FUCKING CHRISTMAS ASSHAT!!!!
    GO DIE!!!
