    Default Predator blu-ray $13.95 on Amazon


    The RRP has been changed from $39.95 to $19.95 so websites like have also changed ($13.35). I can't post links because I'm not allowed >_>

    It's a decent Blu-ray of a pretty good movie. $14 is approaching the threshold I would buy it at.

    Usually when Amazon has a Blu-Ray priced that low it's because it's substandard quality and not much better than the best DVD version. I believe Predator is another example of this.

    I never had Predator on DVD or VHS before and picked this up a while back when it was 50% off so it was 19.95. I wasn't really impressed with the PQ, too much grain but I suspect its a source problem (being filmed in a jungle) - also the complete lack of extras was annoying too

    uhhhhhh no. Predator is a nice Increase from the DVD. It's limited by it's source but it looks fantastic in comparison to the DVD. Believe me I have both and have compared.

    DVD was like 7$ and BD was like $35 at Target for so long... took long enough for it to drop in price.

    I just can't justify this purchase. Not based on all the 3 out of 5 PQ reviews out there.
    And as mentioned, there is probably and Uber edition in the works.

    B2G1 with this, Commando, and T2...I'd buy it for $30. I realize T2 isn't Fox.
