i haven't Grim,look like taiwanese swordplay movies,mark may have seen a couple of them.they are cheap enough to take a chance

Only other one I've seen is Bloody Fight. I don't remember too much about it. I think it was an OK basher - but don't take my word for it. For that price you're cheap enough just trying a couple that sound interesting. Most of them are Taiwanese, some HK films made in Taiwan.

Just think people on forums are paying loads more for second hand version of all of the above.
If Blu Ray prices stay at them resonable price points I would buy a lot more

WOW! Great price. I bet we'll see a few more of these before it ends. It's a shame Part 1 is good but not a keeper, Part 2 is decent and Part 3 pretty much a turkey though.
That said, if it's 3 keep cases, you could always sell the ones you don't want.
I already own MI2 HD-DVD. Which btw they all have Full-Rate (1.5Mbps) DD Plus compared with the 640Kbps DD5.1 found on the BDs.

I saw this over at AVForums. I'm tempted by Unforgiven but will probably get it another time.
Proposition BD £8.34 (Pre-Order)
Bollocks! My copy from The Hut arrived today. It was a good price too, just not that good. I didn't spot that one. That's a super price for a title sure to go OOP sooner rather than later.
EDIT: It's the USA not UK Tartan BD. The UK BD only transfers over a Making of and Trailer from the 2 Disc SE DVD

, whereas the USA BD may transfer all the USA extras over (less than the DVD) but I cannot find any info on this.
The Tartan is a BD25 with DTS-HD MA. I wonder if the USA BD really only has DD5.1?
EDIT: The Making of is 118 minutes

, pity the commentary especially has been dropped though.

Superhero box set (xmen 1 & 2,Daredevil Director's cut, Elektra) £7 in zavvi.

How much better is DD: DC? I've been meaning to check it out but the Theatrical Cut is so poor I've not bothered.
I'm guessing it wouldn't make someone like it if they disliked the TC?

it's a stronger film than the TC imo but if you hated the TC i can't see you suddenly liking the DC despite it being better. review here,this guy didn't like it much either but agrees the DC is an improvement.

I though it was the BD box set

. I'd have definitely got it, if it was on BD. I'm happy with my older box set until I get it on BD.
