Love Film

I have been persuaded to try out Love Film by a friend. It's a great idea, you have unlimited rentals of DVD's but you are only allowed 3 at a time, it only costs 16 pounds a month so seems a very cost effectual strategy, but I will tell you in future how this goes.

The thing that caught my eyes was that blu-ray dvd's are included in the package, so even if I only borrowed 1 a month, it should be worth it.

More later!

Blu-ray Update

I mentioned at the beginning of the month that I had moved over to Blu-ray, so just a bit of an update on what I think:

I'm personally very pleased with Blu-ray, the quality is much better, but I wouldn't call it a completely necessary upgrade. Blu-ray is the perfect upgrade for anyone that is CRAZY about movies, but for anyone else, DVD can perform just as well for most movies. In reality most movies don't need the extra speeds that Blu-ray has to offer, being made to be compatible with DVD they tend to make thing optimised for DVD!

• But there are a few points in which Blu-ray excels:

• The initial impression of the movies that I hadn't previously watched have been very good, though it may be just that the movies they pick to go onto Blu-ray are just the better movies...

• Action works really well on Blu-ray as the lens is said to be 4 times faster

• There seems to be more colours on Blu-ray

• This may seem only a little change, but with High Definition it is much easier to see the eyes, which it reality adds another eliment to the movie, as the eyes tell so much about what someone is thinking!

So try to hold off from Blu-ray as long as you can, but if you can't wait, go ahead and buy it, and enjoy it!

Blu-ray

I've finally made to move over to blu-ray, perhaps a little slow for a movie geek, but nevertheless I made the change, and feel much better for doing it!

All the adverts are true! Blu-ray rocks big time! It can read the discs really fast! and the Sound quality will be the best movie sound experience you will ever encounter! Believe me!

Expect a few more posts about Blu-ray in the future, but for now, I think it's the greatest invention in the world!

There is one let-down though... The dvd's are far too expensive to buy (usually about £20-25 each...) so for now it's just the most visual movies that I am going to get on Blu-ray!
