All good.
Now just go get a PS3.
Anyone pick up any movies at fry's yesterday? Some good titles for $16.99. I got Tropic Thunder since I have all the other ones that were on sale.
Fry's and Amazon are the best places to buy Blu's.

Why are people even arguing that there is no difference? That's like saying water isn't wet.

Are there any good movies for under $20? I really don't feel like dishing out more than $20

Has a lot to do with the capabilites of the player. Decoding DTS, 7.1, BD Live, Ethernet, etc.
Unless you have your own home theater in your house, and just want a SA just to watch movies like any average person, the $150 will be more than enough. Iassume you are looking at an Olevia or Insignia tho.
I would spend a few more bucks and get a BDP-S350.

Check Amazon, Fry's, and Best Buy.
Tons of blockbusters from the past few years are less than $20.
Eagle Eye, Transformers, Tropic Thunder, Iron Man, all kinds of others.

Sorry to stray a little bit off topic here guys but quick ? for ya'll with PS3 Blu players, Every once in a while when im watching a movie, it seems likethere is a lagging in the frames, movements seem slower, but the sound isn't affected. Is this the PS3 or is it my HDTV?
