You want it that badly? Why? Considering New Line sucks at Blu-Ray. I've seen their BRs, very poor at best.
I have the UK DVD and it's great. I doubt you can improve it significantly in any way.

I'd quite like to complete the collection. I don't see anything wrong with New Line. I bought the Blade blu recently, and it was superb.

The American Blu-Ray has video compression issues. The sound is Ok but the picture isn't good enough.

What's the diagonal of your screen? And what player do you have? Sony, Samsung... etc.

Well, on such system everything looks fine. But on a 260 inch screen it's different.
Hell, even on a 65 inch TV you'll see problems with many Blu-Rays.

But I don't have a 65" tv. I have a 40" TV, therefore everything looks fine on my Blade disc. So I'm happy.

BTW why '40? It's too small... These days people buy atleast '55.

Everyone don't have tv rooms or living rooms the size of a football field. :lol:
I have a 46" tv and that's by far the biggest still enjoyable to watch in my reasonably small living room.
Work occasionally keeps me off the grid but I'll be around sooner or later.

Yeah, I know. Shame though. :lol:

Nah, for me '65 is a minimum size. But '46 is a very popular size for some reason. Lots of guys I know have such diagonal.

I like it that size because it's more practical for my house. Anyway, it doesn't matter if I have a 65 inch migrating apple or a 55 inch crocodile machine, I'd still like to know if anybody hasw news on a Rush Hour 2 Blu release, and why it's been held up when the other two have been released.

For the same reason why so many movies were never released on DVD. In other words: it's simply not worth it.
You aren't happy with your DVD?

*sigh* Fine, I'll indulge the little conversation. It's strange because Rush Hour 2 was by far the most successful in the series, and it's odd not to capitalise on that when the first was recently reeased. I'm assuming Bad Boys 2 is 'not worth it' when it comes to blu as well? That's got to be one of the most anticipated 'blow-your-socks-off with the A/V' releases when it comes down to it. Or is that wrong, because you didn't particularly care for that one either?

The first one is way better.

I wouldn't compare Bad Boys 2 to Rush Hour 2, seriously.

That's got to be one of the most anticipated 'blow-your-socks-off with the A/V' releases when it comes down to it.


Bad Boys 2? I doubt Sony/Columbia gonna release a decent BR. So far they failed with other movies.

Or is that wrong, because you didn't particularly care for that one either?


I'm simply crazy about Bad Boys 2, but don't expect a good BR.
But considering that awesome Suberbit DVD I've got, it aint a big deal to me.
