Re: **Official Blu-Ray & HD-DVD Thread Part II**
I do, but here's the stupid parents problem (it's just my mom, really):
If I use my credit card, she sees the bill. She'll ask why I used a credit card for movies, and I'll say it's because it's a special promotion for Blu Ray movies. She'll ask why I'm buying Blu Ray movies without a Blu Ray player, and I'll say because I intend to buy a PS3 this summer. Then she'll say that I should be focusing on school work and not playing any more games. She'll say that I should get out this summer (which I will be doing since I'll be interning and coaching softball), and that I can't let games become a distraction in my life anymore. I'll say but these are movies, and she'll say that I'm wasting my life with movies.
After all of that, she would probably return the damn things, even if we couldn't get money back. Chances are, I have to start hiding my gaming systems from her if I want any chance at getting new ones. That's just my mother.

Re: **Official Blu-Ray & HD-DVD Thread Part II**
I think it's time to grow up. When I was 19, my parents didn't see my bills, let alone my bank statements. Live your own life.I do, but here's the stupid parents problem (it's just my mom, really):

Re: **Official Blu-Ray & HD-DVD Thread Part II**
While this is true, it's also different depending on if the parents are paying for college and giving him money to live....it's their money, I doubt they want him spending it on tons of games, you know?
It all just depends on the situation....Nintendo Switch Friend Code: SW-7009-7102-8818Comment

It's my own money, and since I'm an RA next year, I don't pay for housing or food.Samsung PN60F8500 PDP / Anthem MRX 720 / Klipsch RC-62 II / Klipsch RF-82 II (x2) / Insignia NS-B2111 (x2) / SVS PC13-Ultra / SVS SB-2000 / Sony MDR-7506 Professional / Audio-Technica ATH-R70x / Sony PS3 & PS4 / DirecTV HR44-500 / DarbeeVision DVP-5000 / Panamax M5400-PM / Elgato HD60Comment

Re: **Official Blu-Ray & HD-DVD Thread Part II**
Sorry man that sucks. I know I've been waiting for this to drop in price for a long time. The cheapest I saw was on Amazon at $69.99. I checked Best Buy and it's at $89.99. Needless to say I jumped all over this one."You got it man. I don't watch hockey." SidVish"I thought LeBron James was just going to be another addition to help me score."

That sucks. Can you have a friend buy the movies for you and then you can pay them back?I do, but here's the stupid parents problem (it's just my mom, really):

Re: **Official Blu-Ray & HD-DVD Thread Part II**
So nobody here has seen Chronicles of Narnia on BR yet? I want to check it out but since I own it on DVD already, it might not be worth the purchase if its not much of an upgrade. I know I can look up reviews from various websites but I like to hear what you guys think here.Comment

Re: **Official Blu-Ray & HD-DVD Thread Part II**
I posted a few pages back that I had seen it. Video quality is top notch. From what I read, so is the sound but I didnt watch it on the tv with the surround sound so I can't really comment on that. I would recommend it though if you like the movie. Sell the SD version on ebay and make a few bucks back since you are double dippingSo nobody here has seen Chronicles of Narnia on BR yet?

Re: **Official Blu-Ray & HD-DVD Thread Part II**
Thanks a lot bro, must have missed it when I was going through the pages, glad to hear that its worth it. Going to pick up National Treasure 1 & 2 on BR through Amazon, its only 39.99 for both so I figure thats a good price. Thanks again for the feedback.I posted a few pages back that I had seen it.
