Oh, it's that movie. For the life of me I didn't know what movie this
was. Oh, it's the "Will Farrel NASCAR movie". It might be interesting as
a rental...but as a HD demo??

I wouldn't have minded Fifth Element really. It's a fun flick, and got me
interested in DVD way-back-when. Unfortunatly, I've heard the transfer is
less than HD quality... Makes me wonder what they're thinking over
there...
Otherwise, I don't see anything that'd be worthy of owning, much les worth
owning in HD. Honestly, my attitude towards HD is quickly becoming one of
ambivelance. Sure, HD provides a better picture and all that, but
compared to a good DVD transfer, it just seems to me that DVD is going to
be "good enough" unless it's something I deem "worthy" of HD.
