The DC of Daredevil I will agree was FAR superior to the tharical release. Doomsday was a pretty bad movie. It had some cool action sequences, i'll give it that, but over all it wasn't that great of a movie. Riddick was a good movie. I thought it was cool when I saw it in the theater. I own the HD DVD and i'm looking forward to the sequel that is in pre-production.

The directors cut of Kingdom of Heaven, the theatrical release was a disjointed mess but the longer version makes more sense and is a much better story.

"The Postman" with Kevin Costner. It takes place in 2013, just (gulp) four years from now. I've always liked this movie.

Agree with Daredevil and Doomsday (and the DC of KOH was great, too, though I still liked the theatrical). Hate Riddick - such a weak follow-up to Pitch Black. Anyway, who am I to judge - I liked The Number 23. (sigh)

Riddick is entirely different from Pitch Black. There is little thematic connection to PB. Take away the common characters and the few references to PB, and it would be a stand-alone film. I liked it.

"FDTD"? "From Dusk Till Dawn"?

I've always liked the film. It's amusingly over-the-top and gets sillier as it goes along. I liked it so much, in fact, I bought the Blu-ray edition from Amazon Canada some months ago.

Daredevil is bad, no matter what cut you watch...tell me, I own both versions, all from Walmart's $5 bin...

I'll say Aeon Flux and Superman IV...I have Flux's HD DVD (from the 5 free offer....ah, the times...) and I might even be tempted to double dip it on blu the A/V quality is amazing...
