Thumbs up BluRay Reviews

I bought one of these new fangled players for the theatre room and came across this site a few weeks ago reviewing available titles...

http://bluray.highdefdigest.com/reviews.html

First purchase - Pan Labyrinth [ordered from Amazon UK] and the review was spot on.

I've got a ps3 but only have a few blu-ray movies......gone in 60 seconds, swordfish and ......wait for it.......bruce lee's enter the dragon ...lol

Blu-ray is a big differnce to dvd.......its good as it also upscales normal dvds to near hd quality as well.....definately a huge improvement.

Totally Agree.

We have the PS3 too.. and have found we cannot run 1080p via the tv.. so have to go via the projector.

I guess saying your plasma is hd ready, and has 2 hdmi inputs.. should lead you to ask what upscaling it will accept...

Lesson to be learnt there

At our last house, I spent 15 months saving for the ultimate ( in my view ) theatre system.

We told the builders who built our house, we didnt want the dbl garage option, so to re-do plans to make its a cinema room.

This place... aint got no where to set my gear up.

So gonna have to bloody build something lol.

Nothing like watching a great NRL game on the big screen
