    Indiana Jones on bluray

    http://www.blu-ray.com/news/?id=8283

    So the original trilogy will finally be on bluray! Nice!

    Not fussed about the odd recent one, but the original trilogy I'd like to own on bluray, if only to get a copy before Lucas finally decided he can improve them and starts f***ing them up as badly as the Star Wars films!
    Look again at that dot. That's here. That's home. That's us. On it everyone you love, everyone you know, everyone you ever heard of, every human being who ever was, lived out their lives. The aggregate of our joy and suffering, thousands of confident religions, ideologies, and economic doctrines, every hunter and forager, every hero and coward, every creator and destroyer of civilization, every king and peasant, every young couple in love, every mother and father, hopeful child, inventor and explorer, every teacher of morals, every corrupt politician, every "superstar," every "supreme leader," every saint and sinner in the history of our species lived there--on a mote of dust suspended in a sunbeam.

    I don't think that will happen because of Spielberg. He's stated that he learned his lesson with E.T., reversed what he had changed, and would never do it again. I hope Lucas would have the respect for Spielberg not to change anything behind his back.....

    As for the set - Oh hell yeah. Day one purchase. New features too! Woot woot!

    Shame Spielberg can't rub some of that opinion off onto Lucas. I watched the beginning of Return of the Jedi last night and grimaced at the stupid CGI'd new music track in Jabba's palace! Damn you Lucas!

    It's about DAMN time! I was getting tired of Crystal Skull being the only Indy BR disc in my collection.

    The only thing I'm worried about is the HD transfer. Hopefully they will get it right. If they do, this'll be a first-day purchase for me.

    I bet they'll release this set around the same time as the blu ray collections for James Bond and The Twilight Zone. The wife is going to kill me....

    lol. I know the feeling. Just tell her it's to 'future proof' your collection and that you're buying all this stuff for your kids.
    That's what I do.


    doesn't really work though

    I'll probably get the first two, if they can be bought separately. I've no desire to polute my shelves with the other two.
