    Default In your personal opinon.....


    Which of these is the better movie: FF: Spirits Within or the Prestige. I am asking this becasue I was in a Best Buy today looking at movies and noticed they had both the Prestige and the Newly Released FF: Spirits Within. I was so torn I got neither of them and instead got V for Vendetta on HD-DVD. But if you were me, which of them would you have picked up. (Note: I liked both the movies on DVD and ive already seen the Prestige on BD (not sure if its a movie you can watch more than once) )
    Blu-Ray: PotC 1, PotC 2, AVP, 300, Rocky Balboa, 300, Corpse Bride, First Blood, Superman Returns, Black Hawk Down, Final Fantasy: Spirits Within, The Prestige, Terminator 2, Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy, Crank, Halloween, Dawn of the Dead, Spiderman Trilogy, No Country for Old Men.

    HD-DVD: King Kong, Batman BEgins, Bourne Supremacy, Hot Fuzz, V for Vendetta.

    this shouldn't even be a question. Prestige is 100x the movie FF is. You cannot go wrong getting a movie directed by Nolan. He's simply one of the best in the biz

    The Prestige is the much better movie, although for PQ and AQ ratings they are both top notch demo movies. As for replayability The Prestige is definetly a movie you should watch again and again ( it is akin to Fight Club in that even after you know the surprise you want to watch it many times to catch stuff you might have missed ).

    The Prestige, hands down. The prestige is both a great movie AND has an amazing PQ/AQ, but FF has only good PQ/AQ and an average film

    Prestige is an awesome movie but I would have grabbed Final Fantasy.

    Ditto on picking up FF:TSW. Prestige looks good, but for me not replayable after watching a few times.

    It was in response to the OP's question of our opinions. I am not putting them on the same level as you claim. I would buy FF:TSW over The Prestige is all I claim. The prestige you can find used, at a lot of gamestops for $13.99 if you want.
