Yay, roll on the bland/average films. They'll feel right at home with those Mummy BDs.

Have you seen any of those films? If not, then you can't write them off as shite.

Knocked Up and 40YO Virgin are above average for Hollywood comedies, but still neither are keepers. My opinion is justified because I've both of those films.

I'm willing to bet I'll think they're shite.

40-year old virgin is excellent, one of the best comedies to come out of hollywood this decade.

Only seen 'Virgin' and it was fine. Not something I'd buy though. I'd like to see Universal sprinkle in some classics though along with the newer releases. It's gotta be weird that U-571 gets a BD before ANY Hitchcock movie for example.

You mean BitchCock - Part 3.

Universal released loads of excellent films on HD-DVD. No doubt they'll come sooner or later.

I wouldn't expect any Hitchcock titles any time soon, none made their way to HD-DVD and so far Universal have only been releasing BDs of: New releases and titles already on HD-DVD.

I don't like the Judd Apatow ones, but Forgetting Sarah Marshall is decent, I reckon I'll be purchasing it.

That was funny Romero. Did you think up that one all on your own or did you invite your mates round for a brainstorming session?
