Wow. All kinds of fun -- The Outsiders, The Crying Game, Apt Pupil, Midnight Run, The Blue Lagoon, Hackers, Eight Men Out -- all movies I've enjoyed and will look forward to seeing in HD. Is Mad Max 2 any good?

And somebody tell me Disorderlies isn't that godawful comedy starring The Fatboys. Where's Krush Groove when you need it?

MAD MAX 2 is as good or better than the first one. It's a classic of the Post-Apocalyptic genre.

DISORDERLIES is, indeed, the Fat Boys' epic. It might be good if you're really drunk and have some friends over to poke fun at it.

CASINO ROYALE is not a great film, but the set design and its oh-so-mod editing and structure make it worth watching. It's never dull and you get to see just how much Mike Myers ripped off when he made AUSTIN POWERS.

DRAGONSLAYER is surprisingly decent. It was one of a handful of films co-produced by Disney and Paramount during the early '80s and was quite a big-budget flick for its day.

THE TRIPLETS OF BELLEVILLE should be amazing to see in HD. It's one of my favorite animated films of the last twenty years.

The Sure Thing is a classic for me. Typical love angst romantic comedy but has a great story, Rob Reiner and John Cusack. Nuff said.

surprised no one mentioned the classic obscure Fahrenheit 451.

The Sure Thing is a classic for me also. I'm looking foward to watching Mad MAx 2 and F 451....a classic book.

Great movie with a very obscure ending...

If you read the book there's a VERY interesting side note at the very end by Bradbury. The movie does a pretty good justice to the book...I think it's probably the best movie of a book (religious ones aside). I thought there was another version being made but the one I know of was the one in the 60's...
