    Some interesting Blu-ray releases coming up

    ... for January.

    First big interest for me is RIGHTEOUS KILL , starring Deniro and Pacino. I understand the script is just so-so, but we may never see these two great actors in another film together, so for me it is a must own.

    Next up is BANKGOK DANGEROUS starring Nick Cage. I will rent this first then decide whether I want to own it.

    BABYLON AD starring Vin Diesel. Another one I will rent first.

    Oh boy, Oh boy, Oh boy... a WESTERN:
    APPALOOSA starring Ed Harris and Viggo Mortensen. A definite BUY !

    LAKEVIEW TERRACE starring Samuel L Jackson looked interesting but old, plotwise. I'll rent.

    MAX PAYNE starring Mark Wahlberg. Another rent before buying.

    THE EXPRESS a football movie ( I love 'em ) so it will likely end up in my collection.
    PRIDE AND GLORY another cop film starring Edward Norton and Colin Farrell that I feel cerian will end up in my collection.

    THE BOURNE TRILOGY also comes out January 27 but I am happy with the PQ of my DVDs so I will put the money to new releases I want to own.

    I think I'll definitely be giving Appaloosa a look see. These "newer" old westerns have looked great (loved 3:10 to Yuma).

    Can't wait for Bourne Trilogy on Blu-ray either, as I just sold my HD-DVD Bourne trilogy!

    Will probably wait for the great George's reviews on the others

      I bet a lot of folk will be getting The Bourne set. I may get them myself eventually. Right now I'd rather put my money on new releases.

        Appaloosa is the "must have" on that list for me. The rest are rental material (again, for me). As for Bourne, I already have the HD DVDs and I see no need to replace them.

          Righteous Kill was actually quite good. I enjoyed it very much Kind of has you thinking through the whole movie trying to figure things out.

            George, we can only hope Appaloosa will be as good as Open Range, but I couldn't wait. I pre-ordered the Blu-ray from DVD Planet for $25.

              I also have my copy on pre-order, Tex. I really won't be too disappointed if it isn't as good as Open Range ,but it's a Western and it has Ed Harris and Viggo Mortensen so I feel pretty good about it. Actually I am biting at the bit waiting to see it.

                Got the Bourne set today. Have not watched them yet, but can say I really like the case. I have been pretty disappointed with various movie/game packaging lately, cheap crappy plastic cases that was thin and wouldn't even keep their square shape. This box is a heavy duty cardboard, holds the three bourne movies all in standard blu-ray cases with a section of the case cut out to easily pull them out. Coolest part is the front flap is magnetic to keep the case shut. Anyhow pretty dorky of me I'm sure, but nice to see some companies still care about their product quality. I'll probably get to watching them quick.

                  There's really too many to put in a post but I'll put down some that I think no other site has listed. I think I'll also list more mainstream titles as well.

                  The Bourne Identity - a review
                  by Patrick Sun
                  I thought "The Bourne Identity" was okay, not as good as I'd hoped, but not horrible, just didn't have enough bite to it. Matt Damon is okay as Jason Bourne. I found Franka Potente endearing in her role. Bourne is definitely a badass, even if it's just reflex kicking in when he needs the moves....

The latter is a comedy directed by Stanley Kramer, but he should stick to serious drama and avoid slapstick at all costs.This film came out in 1963 and stars many comedians who look a lot differenet today ( or who...
