The General DVD/HD Disc Bargains Thread!

I got mine from Amazon Market Place before the DVD.co.uk offer and I wasn't sure if it was worth trusting the other two, especially for only £1.87 more.

You bought Battlestar Galactica? crikey didnt think you were into that at all, still its an amazing show, if not the most exciting if the last few years.

I have had HD discs from all 3 of them companies, so there is no trust to be had, they deliver

Eva convinced me it was excellent and at £15 for the entire series 1 in HD I thought why not. Correct, normally I wouldn't.

I do love my Scifi TV series though (like Star Trek) so should like it.

Battlestar Galactica give me goose bumps

it gets so good its insane how good TV can get. Still I have only seen the Miniseries, Season 1 and 2 so far, it may get shit later

but hell I paid 19 quid for the HD DVD set a while back from australia and I dont feel ripped off to much as I paid more than that for the standard dvds way back

so sold them, it was almost a free upgrade really.

£19 is good value for a Series Box set.

That's a good price. I'll definitely be picking it up at some point. Rambo 4 is the best action film in years and easily beats Rambo 1-3. I was so surprised quite how much fun it is. It could've so easily been a disaster but Stallone knew exactly what people wanted and he gave it to us.

Apparently there are a number of warner titles at £4.93, but there seems no way of finding them in a group.Last Samurai is there at £4.93. edit: there's a few here

With Quidco you get 10% off, and if your risking it theres a voucher for 50p off each title as well (but I wont risk it as they cancel Quidco refund sometimes). Intheory £4 each then if you want to risk it.

well your opening statement that you were wondering if Warner were going to drop their prices to a fiver when they clearly already have led me to believe you were posting a list of warner releases,not a list of titles in the offer

I bet it will be the best looking version of the Theatrical Cut for awhile yet. I can just see the August BD will be the Extended Cut again.

I love where it says:

"Optimum System Requirements: Blu-ray optical player and HD TV"

Good luck using it without a Blu-ray Player

.

Now that's worth picking up. I mean, who knows when we'll see a better presentation of the TC? I suspect all Europe will dish out only the SE.

bradavon · Post by **bradavon** » 02 Jun 2008, 03:01

I imagine it will be easy to sell on eBay if the August BD does turn out to have the Theatrical Cut too, not that I can see that happening.

I imagine it looks pretty good quality too, if bettered by the French HD-DVD.
