    Love Bluray & it's much better than DVD. I've got probably close to 50 now. I don't rebuy any movies that I have on DVD. I just buy new ones, mainly movies the kids will watch over & over & over again. I started a kung-fu bluray collection, so I will be rebuying Hero & Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon someday.

    I slowly but surely am replacing a lot of my DVD collection. At first I wasn't going to, but a lot of catalog titles can be had for cheap--especially if you like buying used.

    Might as well add Drunken Master and the Legend of the Drunken Master too.

    Never had them on DVD, but will be sure to add those to my collection on Bluray.

    So far I only have:

    Fist of Legend (my fave Jet Li movie)
    Seven Swords (same director from Crouching Tiger)
    OngBak2
    Enter the Dragon
    Kung-Fu Hustle (one of the coolest movies ever made)
    Kung-Fu Panda...oh wait...that doesn't count but it looks AWESOME on Bluray.

    Need to add:

    Legend of the Drunken Master
    Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon
    Hero
    Every Bruce Lee movie
    House of Flying Daggers (one of the most amazing scenic movies ever shot)
    A bunch of Jet Li movies

    Not really kung-fu, but if you're into asian fight-movies, I suggest Battle Royale.

    from time to time some of the studios will offer upgrades on them... you send in your dvd's and 5 bucks and get the bluray... it is more common for hd-dvd though... I buy those for cheap on ebay and then upgrade them to bluray when the sales happen.

    I have a bunch of torrents on my computer w/vga connection to my tv...Comparing blu ray to DVD is basically comparing standard def to HD television.

    Pans Labyrinth is gorgeous. One day I'll have to buy it.

    Anybody see "The Girl With the Dragon Tatoo"? It's #1 on Amazon right now. Never heard of it.

    Buy it.

    It's a good movie, probably 8.25/10. Solid acting with a great script. The trilogy is really interesting.

    Should receive mine by next week.
