Oh, oh, and I picked up The Pacific at Costco today, so I watched the first episode of that. Should be an experience.

Conan from last night was funny. Watch this clip of him visiting Warner Bros. Animation where they discuss some of your favorite DC Comics superheroes.

![]() Watched my Inception Blu-ray today. Some nice low bass moments. Which is worrying me. I also got the Pulse Blu-ray simply for the scene at the end with the waves of bass (still haven't watched the rest of the movie), and the extreme low bass is making something rattle. So far I can't decide if it's the subs themselves or stuff near the subs. Anyway, the sound was there, though to a lesser extent, with Inception, and these two are the first movies I've watched that have flushed out this rattling. I've also watched some of both Imogen Heap's Everything In-Between: The Story of Ellipse and Lang Lang: Live in Vienna. Imogen Heap seems to be a very determined and upbeat person. I'll have to watch the rest since it hasn't gotten too deep into the music yet. Lang Lang is a goofball when he's playing piano. He could be enjoying it a little too much. Ha ha. But yeah, I think any future classical purchases by me are going to be concert Blu-rays. It helps me appreciate the music more when I can actually see it being performed, as opposed to simply listening. |

I finally got around to watching the Blu-ray of “Ironman 2.” I’ll save the audio/video quality review and just say read what Blu-ray.com has to say:
http://www.blu-ray.com/movies/Iron-Man-2-Blu-ray/13501/#Review As for the movie itself I liked it much more than it’s predecessor. They thankfully gave us the back-story during the opening credits like “The Incredible Hulk” (2008) did instead of dragging it out like the original “Iron Man.” The only thing I really didn’t like about the movie were Hammer’s monologues which seemed to frequent and to long. Still don’t see much replay value save the scenes with Scarlett Johansson. ![]() When I watched this I realized that I hadn’t actually seen a movie in my HT for several months since I’ve been mostly gaming and watching various TV series. Nice to have a feature film playing again.

I'm just the opposite. I like the Iron Man 1 much better than 2. To me 1 was interesting, whereas 2 just seemed to drag most of the time.

I bought A Bug's Life on blu-ray today, and just finished watching it for the first time since it came out in 1998. All I can say is it was FANTASTIC! The sound was the best part with plenty of LFE to go around.
