The Official High Def Digest Movie Night Thread

Hello all, thanks very much for visiting our little movie night thread. This is the official thread for requesting and keeping track of all our community movie nights. What is a movie night you ask? Well in brief one of the more popular BD-Live apps being published by multiple studio's is a movie chat feature, so our plot is to have High Def Digets community members get together and watch movies together. Below I have 2 billboard setup, the first is for officially confirmed movie nights, the second is for requests I kind of threw on a calandar, dates subject to change

Confirmed movie night Billboard:


Ghostbusters (Friday June 19th at 10PM EST)

WoodStock (Friday June. 26th at 8PM EST)

Watchmen (Friday July. 25th at 10PM EST)

Fast & Furious (Friday Aug. 7th at 10PM EST)

300* (Ult. Ed. Bluray Required) (Friday Aug. 14th at 10PM EST)

where can you pick up wall-e cheap? I didn't plan on getting it but this sounds fun.

[DaveS1138]

Cool I'll be there for this one too

Just to confirm that will be 10pm Eastern time US.

Also it might be a good idea to update the first post with all titles that support BD-Live chat as a reference for anybody that wants to suggest their own movie.

[Onslaught X]

I would like to buy the 3 disc edition of Wall E, but I like...wanna pay less than 20 >.>

[DaveS1138]

Amazon have it for $25 at the moment (three disc or two disc they are both the same price ) but you would probably need to pay extra for postage to get it in time.

Best Buy price themselves out at $30 and $40 respectively (no suprise there)

Other than that you can try renting from Blockbuster or Netflix ect.

[crazzeto]

Those of you looking for wall-e on the cheap, amazon market place is a good bet but you might have issues getting it by the 5th...

We can always delay for a week to give people that dont have the movie time to get a copy.

[crazzeto]

Very good idea... Ok movie night rescheduled to... Friday december 12th!

Ok, so everyone interested please get your wall-e discs by friday of next week!

[junglalien]

I'm going to walmart later for Saw 2 and price match Sears for Wanted. I'll see what they want for Wall-E. Well my truck is getting inspected now. If that don't break me I'll pick it up.

Actually Amazon Market place do have it for $20 for the 2 disc set and you now have long enough to do the free shipping

[junglalien]

Can you change your disney BD-Live user names? What if we all put HDD before or after our name? Yay or nay?

So come one, come all high def digest forum members and join in the fun that will be our night to not just enjoy our fav films in high def, but enjoy it with some good company. The festivities will be kicking off on December 5th 12 2008 with Wall-E Disney BD-Live! If you feel like joining in do the following:

I applaud you for setting this up, these HDD Community Events can be a lot of fun. A bunch of us from the HD DVD Forum did a community screening for Harry Potter & the Order of the Phoenix about this time last year and we had a blast. But I think I'll wait and hopefully we can get one going for The Dark Knight; I'm not willing to give Disney all the personal info they require.

EDIT: Most of my post moved to Crazetto's smackdown thread on BDLive, as it's more appropriate there.

[crazzeto]

@Cochise

Yes it's a little involved but I can understand where Disney is coming from. They built their name on being family friendly thus they will be taking the protection of your kids pretty seriously. Unfortunetly that means right now Disney BD-Live is a little... Involved as far as getting a movie chat going.

So spend a little more for the digital copy if you really want it Or you can join me in rebelling against Disney's idea that a digital copy is something you can charge for. If they're going to give me something for the road give me the DVD and rights to rip it to iPod or Zune.
