Just started watching The Meg, they have a much nicer deepwater sub than the Titanic tours company, still trying to figure out how Jason Stathem beats the Meg's ass using martial arts and outdrives it, but we'll see, maybe Dwight will "beet" it to death =D
I ended up making it about half way before i lost interest in this "one catastrophe after another" "thriller". Not my cup of tea. 2/5 stars.
I dislike comic book movies, but in BluRay, they should be visually entertaining (and even better, if you have a decent A/V sound system.
Gravity - I think you will enjoy the tense tale. And visually, in BluRay,spectacular
Not sure John, we certainly have streaming but not sure if in HD or UHD. I certainly wouldn't sign up for a subscription service as I so rarely watch films.
Al, I'm currently using a Yamaha RX-V1400 that is capable of 7:1 but only wired for stereo with centre speaker at the moment. I also have an Aventage A3060 capable of up to 11:2 but it's still in its box.

OP live is on patrol live,they follow police departments all over the country (usa).I had it on DVR from last week
Saw this on the telly the other night. 30 years or more since I last watched it. The late Fred Dibnah, what we call in England a ‘character’. 5/5
Last I remember hearing about him (before he died) was when his missus gave him an ultimatum... her or his steam engine. So old Fred buggered off with his engine and left her! Lol
I just watched the excellent 'Child 44' film on DVD starring the great Tom Hardy, Gary Oldman, Noomi Rapace and the wonderful Paddy Considine.
Based on the true story of child murderer Andrei Chikatilo in 1950's Russia, it is both excellently acted and visually absorbing.
A rock solid 5/5 from me.

Halfway through Sherlock Holmes: Incident at Victoria Falls, and am wondering if anyone knows just what his pipe is? Looks like a Peterson Meer.. but what model, when? 4/5 so far. ;-)
The Twilight Samurai. 5/5
Well my first Blu-ray experience failed when 'Gravity' refused to go past the start screen.
So instead last night I tried the first of the Batman trilogy 'Batman Begins'.
Well what can I say? It really was a hoot with (totally expected) utterly ridiculous scenarios and laughable fight stunts....not to mention Batman's plastic muscle body suit. As for the new Batmobile, I only have vague memories of the big black thing I saw as a kid in the 70's, the new version it was hard to tell the front from the back!
As for Blu-ray being the dog's dangly bits, I was rather unimpressed to be honest.
For sheer audacity & daftness I'll be generous and give it 3/5.
Will I watch the other 2 in the set? Nah, probably not.
Regards,
Jay.
PS: The actor who played Batman I've seen before in something but forget what. I seem to recall whatever it was I actually enjoyed.
