Though, to be honest, the discs were free...

Well, I supose you can use "World Trade Center" as a paperweight or something :D

 

<_<

 

I'll be getting a load of HD quality films for coppers while the blu-ray owners continue to pay through the nose though. So swings and roundabouts.

 

Honestly the negative spin you put on things. Real glass half empty kinda guy aren't you.

No not at all really, I just thought World Trade Center was one of the worst films I'd ever seen, and I was surpised to see a film buff like yourself buying it :razz:

Ah right, thought you were referring to the death of HD dvd which was confirmed this morning...

EDIT: WTC was good, but I was never fussed enough to get the dvd. Being free though, I thought it'd be an excellent choice for testing out the sound quality. When the building drops the sound is immense.

Serenity is canny in a wants to be Star Wars but a bit more grown up and cynical way. I'm not a huge sci-fi fan really.

 

I was a bigger fan of Children of Men than The Prestige. COM was brilliant I thought. Prestige was canny.

I liked Serenity too, although I got the feeling you'd have been better off having watched Firefly first, which I hadn't.

There were just a couple of bits that let Children of Men down for me. I thought it was very good but the bits at the farmhouse for example - the supporting cast were a bit hammy and the bit near the end when they make their escape - you know they've never seen a baby for 20 years or so but one explosion and they all forget about it and go back to fighting allowing them to slip away. I thought it was very well realised other than that though. The Prestige was canny enough - 7/10.

I'd watch Firefly before you watch Serenity alex, it's by the same guy who did Angel and Buffy, so you know what to expect. Snappy dialogue, decent humour and affable characters. Don't expect social commentary or subtle nuance lead plot lines.

I enjoyed Serenity but I found Firefly very tedious, a western set in space just didn't work in my opinion.
