Default Re: The Hi-Def Movie Thread

Everyone should pick up a Denon 790 (or 1910 sometimes) receiver. It's pure bliss. The PS3 hooks up via HDMI and everything's flawless from there. You get Multi Direct 7.1 uncompressed sound out of everything.

Every game is uncompressed audio, and some even support 7.1 channels. Movies do too. It also comes with Audyssey surround setup which eliminates distortion, reflections, and cushions in the room to make sound INCREDIBLY spacious.

A lot of your old consoles can be upscaled, even Wii. So good.

And the best thing is that I hear it goes for $500 in the states. If you have 5.1 speakers lying around it's a really good to consider something like it if you've ever given a damn about sound and music, especially in movies.


Aaaaaaaaaaanyways, like I've said before, I've got over 50 blu-rays. They're all so good. Some must haves from me are:

Wall-E (and every other Pixar)
Dark Knight
American Psycho
3:10 to Yuma (7.1 lossless audio and a hell of a movie too!)
Baraka
Shoot 'Em Up
