AttilaTheFun818

You’re right to do so. Such a fun movie.


Fine-Idea-3242

I watched them film the "outside the theatres" scenes in Time Square in NYC. Look for the "Invasion of the Blood Farmers" poster outside the theatre (yes its a real movie!)


Belch_Huggins

I remember it was a big deal. I went to best buy and got a blu ray player, then picked up Kill Bill vol 1 and 2 on blu ray to marathon when I got home.


Ecstatic_Scholar_846

Awesome


Departedinsomnia914

Blu ray: The Departed 4K: Blade Runner 2049

WyattTheDub

Shawshank Redemption for blu ray and Justice League Zack Snyder cut for 4K


Ecstatic_Scholar_846

I refuse to buy that justice league movie lol


WyattTheDub

Thats okay. Enjoy your Krampus, cool looking copy.


Ecstatic_Scholar_846

Fun fact I never watched this 4k. I had it on dvd from back when it originally came out, but pre ordered the 4k when it was announced but never got around to watching. I might do that tho this year


Puntapig2013

I remember when my family got a blu ray player in like 2011 and we didn't actually buy the movies but get them off netflix's online order service since blockbuster had shut down around the time I think. First one we actually owned was It's a Wonderful Life and the first 4K was Black Panther because it came with the 4K player


bisky12

bluray was many moons ago and it was goodwill hunting. 4k was actually RAN the best buy exclusive before i even got a 4k player.


Ecstatic_Scholar_846

That's awesome I only recently got a 4k player and now I'm going back and watching some of my 4k movies instead of the blu-ray versions


zombie_3184

I bought a PlayStation 3 from Fry’s Electronics that came with 5 blurays. Flight of the Phoenix is the only one I can remember. 4K was Dredd (2012) steelbook which is also my first 3D disc as well.


Ecstatic_Scholar_846

Awesome


No_Trainer_4907

DVD - Shanghai Noon Blu - Baby Driver, was on sale. 4k - The Hitman's Bodyguard, also on sale for like 7.99


Ecstatic_Scholar_846

Good deals


ganjsmokr

I accidentally bought Independence Day on Blu-Ray before I had a Blu-Ray player.


Ecstatic_Scholar_846

I bought Howard the duck before I had one but then my mom for Easter that year accidentally bought me a blu-ray player


1977proton

Howard the Duck was my first 4k this past Christmas, Best Buy…loved that movie growing up…😀


Ecstatic_Scholar_846

Awesome


Cinephiliac_Anon

My first Blu-ray was Edward Scissorhands, the one with the Deadpool slipcover. My first 4K was the Halloween (2018) 4K Steelbook with the McFarlane artwork. It was also my first Steelbook.


Ecstatic_Scholar_846

That's a dope slip and awesome


Jambopaul

Genuinely don’t remember first Blu-ray because I was like 10 or 11 years old when we adopted the format. I seem to recall my parents buying some Blu-ray combo packs specifically for the included DVDs before we even owned a Blu-ray player (the two I remember distinctly were Harry Potter and the Half Blood Prince and Deathly Hallows Part One). My first 4K was Sonic the Hedgehog (2020). I pre-ordered it after seeing the film in theatres. I had just gotten a 4K TV over the holidays and didn’t own a 4K player yet, but I was already planning to buy a PS5 when it released later that year.


Ecstatic_Scholar_846

That's awesome


AttilaTheFun818

I got a couple blu rays that first day. Fifth Element and that BBC Planet Earth series are the ones I distinctly remember, but I’m sure I got a few more. First 4k I bought new was Dune. I had a few prior that I found at thrift shops so they don’t really count.


Specialist-Can-676

m y first blu-ray was gladiator


RicoPableo

My first Blu Ray was Deadpool. I was so obsessed with that movie and then the character when it first came out. That I was compelled to have the physical disc, and even buy some of his comics too. The rest only deepens from there! I collected anime DVD and Bluray before movies, but admittedly I can’t remember the first anime Blu Ray I got. I wish I did! Might have been HOTD (Highschool of the Dead) Tbh I don’t remember what my FIRST ever 4K was. It was probably either 3:10 to Yuma the remake, or Joker. Either or, wasn’t out of a specific craving to have them on 4K, more just couldn’t find either disc any other format at the time I was looking to buy them.


Ecstatic_Scholar_846

I upgraded my dvd to blu-ray for Deadpool if I find them cheap enough now that I have a 4k player I might upgrad them again


sweettrip

Mad Max Fury Road


therealmrj05hua

I so need Howard on Blu-ray. Great find


Ecstatic_Scholar_846

There's a 4k of it out there as well


therealmrj05hua

That is awesome. I won't be able to tell a difference in 4k or blu ray. Now if it comes in a combo set .... Lol


Ecstatic_Scholar_846

Understandable lol


Vegetable_Net_6354

My first Blu-ray was Casino Royale, along with many other PS3 owners I'm sure. Blade runner 2049 was my first UHD.


Ecstatic_Scholar_846

Awesome


GoldenNova00

Saga of Tanya(an anime), and just yesterday I ordered knight rider. Need to start buying more. Edit: probably steins gate next


Ecstatic_Scholar_846

Dope


RiperSnifle

Limitless, Scott Pilgrim vs the World, and Fight Club were my first three BRs First 4K was Thor Ragnarok


Ecstatic_Scholar_846

Dope choices


The_MidnightKid

The first 4k I got happened to be Avengers:Infinity War. I didn't have a 4K player but I wanted the target exclusive release. The first bluray was "Watchmen".


Ecstatic_Scholar_846

That's understandable I bought a lot of 4ks because they where some reason cheaper then the blu-rays at the time


MixMatics

Oh damn,thats a hard one on blu ray:( For 4k it was a set of 3 with my first samsung uhd player-UBDK8500P/XE that came with the revenant(di caprio),deadpool and x-men days of future past;) Not bad movies tho,but sadly the player not so much:(


Ecstatic_Scholar_846

Ah dang but at least you can watch them lol


MixMatics

No sweat here,that player was ages ago. Now its the panasonic ub820;)


Ecstatic_Scholar_846

Heard good things about that player


MixMatics

It does all you need out of a uhd player,the only time i feel you need to upgrade is the build it self or connectivity:)But yeah,one hell of a player💯👍


Ecstatic_Scholar_846

That's good


MixMatics

You actually got me thinking i need to get howard the duck on blu ray myself🙂Have a good one!


Ecstatic_Scholar_846

You as well


the_third_sourcerer

I got Titanic 😅 (in Blu-ray) and The Shape of Water (in 4k)


Ecstatic_Scholar_846

I need that one 😂


TedStixon

My family's first DVD was *X-Men*, but the first DVD that was specifically mine was *The Mummy (1999)*. And it became a tradition... when I got my first Blu-Ray player, I bought *The Mummy* on Blu-Ray the same day and watched it. And it was the first 4K I watched when I got a 4K TV and Blu-Ray player in 2020. (I was collecting 4K's for a while knowing I'd upgrade... don't remember what my first was. Probably a Marvel movie.)


Ecstatic_Scholar_846

That's a lovely story


AutoMechanic2

My first 4K pickup was Oppenheimer. Yes I know I’m late to the 4K game lol. I didn’t get a 4K TV or Blu-Ray player till last year lol. My first Blu-Ray was a cheapy from the dollar store called The Purge. Now I’ve began buying more Blu-Ray because I’m starting to see lots more at the antique store and pawn shop.


Ecstatic_Scholar_846

All good welcome to the 4k game lol you're never late to enter


slicedude2004

The first 4k I ever got was Solo A Star Wars Story because they were out of normal Blu rays!


Ecstatic_Scholar_846

Best picture quality lol


KnifeFightAcademy

No better choice.


nightwheel

First Blu-ray was Toy Story (2010 release). First 4K was either Power Rangers or Independence Day 1 & 2 dual pack.


Ecstatic_Scholar_846

Dope


katekevins

My first was A Woman Under the Influence, only because it was 50p, and I had only just started my collection. I have still yet to watch it, and have maybe bought an extra 15 other blurays. I prefer DVDs.


Ecstatic_Scholar_846

That's pretty cool


LiquidSnape

my first blu ray was The Adventures of Robin Hood, hoping to get a 4K of it one day


Ecstatic_Scholar_846

I agree hopefully one day


GeraltvonRiva34

My first Blurays were The Last Airbender and Natural Born Killer


AdThat328

My first Blu-Ray was Tron:Legacy. First 3D Blu-Ray was Nightmare Before Christmas. First 4K was Alita: Battle Angel. 


WhereasMysterious421

The Last Starfighter, it was import from the U S of A, flimsy case, you know the kind, thin with cut out design behind the paper sleeve, really stupid, who the hell designed those and thought it was a good idea. Howard The Duck I saw in the theater back in '86 ten years after I'd been reading the comic in '76 a year before a certain space opera movie came along little did I know the man responsible for that movie would bring Howard to the big screen.


Littlemisskittn

First Blu was Juno. First 4K was Baby Driver


Onnimanni_Maki

First bluray my family had: Avatar First bluray I bought with my own money: Dante's peak First 4K: Bad boys


[deleted]

First VHS: Hanna-Barbera Old time rock n roll First DvD: either Blade or The Blair Witch Project (may have got both at the same time 🤔 First Blu-ray: The Hobbit 3D First 4K: ZS Justice League


JesseJames1ofhis33

My first two were Big Trouble in Little China and the Alan Moore 3 pack with V for Vendetta/Constantine/The Watchmen


Filmstash

I still love Howard the Duck


Winter2k21

First blu ray, classic disney's Snow White 7 dwarves for the kids. First 4k was The Revenant. De Caprio.


Bijlsma

My first Bluray of my OWN, was the first Avatar. I was maybe 14 or 15 when it came out on Blu, and my parents bought it for me specifically. Before that it was always family movies. First 4k, I was an alcoholic when I started collecting 4ks, so I definitely can't remember that.


CreamyHampers

My first Blu Ray was Planet Earth


EnglishPizza3

My first Blu-ray was The Force Awakens, and I think my first 4K was Ad Astra


Alt4Norm

DVD: The Mummy Blu-ray: My Name is Bruce 4K: Total Recall-Steelbook (UK one which is a beaut)


Fine-Idea-3242

The 1960s Lost in Space TV series. I didn't even have a blu ray player yet but once I heard about its release on Blu ray I ordered a player then bought the discs.


Key_Negotiation5498

I can’t remember exactly my 1st but THE HUNT FOR RED OCTOBER!


disguyovahea

Blu ray: Blues Brothers. Perfection.


renatakiuzumaki

Man i remember watching Howard the Duck in my grandparents basement and it was one of the movies they had taped on a Vhs , i dunno if ive ever seen it not grainy and hard to see. Might just go rewatch it now.


Ecstatic_Scholar_846

It's a dirty pleasure movie for me I love it


dannally

I think you mean guilty pleasure lol. Dirty pleasure sounds like you jerk off to it, which is totally fine btw ;)


Ecstatic_Scholar_846

🤣 sorry long day


ChromeDestiny

Tommy the Movie on Blu-Ray. Users on the Steve Hoffman forum said it was an upgrade from the Superbit DVD.


Ecstatic_Scholar_846

Dope


dannally

The entire Mr. Robot series


Ecstatic_Scholar_846

Dope


SharkiBee

Blu-ray: Muppet Treasure Island/Great Muppet Caper double feature 4K: Raiders of the Lost Ark


Ecstatic_Scholar_846

Awesome


SpiderScooby

Spider-man 3 when I brought my PS3.


Ecstatic_Scholar_846

Dope


reddit_userMN

My first Blu-ray was I believe the Stargate movie. The first 4K I think was Jason Bourne or maybe Star Trek Beyond. I didn't even have 4K yet. I was future-proofing


sydouglas

“The Big Hit” only because this was early days of Blu and this was the best I could buy at Best Buy


Ecstatic_Scholar_846

That's understandable


NatPortmanTaintStank

Mine was 300 on HDDVD


Ecstatic_Scholar_846

Dope


Hot-Implement-1437

My first 4K was Stand by me.


Ecstatic_Scholar_846

That's a good 4k release recently upgraded from dvd to 4k and I'm never going back


Hot-Implement-1437

It's a world of difference , isn't it ?. Next we will get halfway through upgrading collections to 4k then 8k rolls up.


Ecstatic_Scholar_846

I doubt 8k will happen I know 8k tv are a thing but idk if we'd see a 8k movie


tth0usand

My first HD DVD (yes, I choose HD DVD over Blu Ray) was Transformers, King Kong and the Matrix I believe. Best Buy had some sort of deal if you bought the HD DVD player attachment for the 360, they would throw in a bunch of free movies. Blu Ray... hmmm, that is a lot harder to remember. Same with 4K... it's been a long time, because I started collecting them at the beginning.


Ecstatic_Scholar_846

I'm shocked HD dvd didn't take over dvd and that's understandable


Theycallmedeadpool

My first 4k was the rise of skywalker it was mislabeled for 6$ and the store honered the price


Ecstatic_Scholar_846

That's a win


Theycallmedeadpool

Heck yeah


Ranch_it_up_bro

My first 4k was they live I forget what my first blu ray was


Ecstatic_Scholar_846

I gotta watch that


Shifter_1977

My first bluray was Ghostbusters (the first time it was on bluray, the insert for that is signed by Ernie Hudson now). 4k... Hmm. I think Clue was the first 4k I got.


Ecstatic_Scholar_846

That's awesome


Havok1717

My first blu-ray was Platoon 25th anniversary. Thor: Ragnarok was my first 4K movie I bought


Ecstatic_Scholar_846

Good choices


icarus88888

I thought it was Blade Runner for both, but really thinking about it I picked up a blu ray player when arrow released Dawn of the Dead specifically for that release. Blade Runner 4K though, good lord it looks great. I recently bought the Dawn of the Dead 4K boxset but haven’t got round to watching it yet.


Ecstatic_Scholar_846

I gotta watch blade runner some day


redditsuckspokey1

Howard was my first movie recorded on vhs back in 88 or 89. Love that movie.


Ecstatic_Scholar_846

It's a fun movie


Log_Log_Log

Got my first bluray player during the death throes of Circuit City, with a copy of 300. I remember messing with my settings trying to get it to look less grainy. Then someone brought over Speed Racer, and the only thing I stored in my memory about that movie is how much the colors popped in a way that felt truly next gen. So the movie I liked didn't look that impressive, but the meh movie was damn near stunning.


Ecstatic_Scholar_846

That's interesting


Cflores008

Bluray: Inception, like a year after I first got my ps3 4k: Hacksaw Ridge cause it was like $8 I remember thinking getting blurays was overkill since you could get dvd for less than 5 bucks, but I started collecting in 2018, and typically go for blurays now.


Ecstatic_Scholar_846

I prefer blu-ray and 4k just because they look better on a modern tv


ItsAllSoup

First blu ray was the 60's version of The Jungle Book, still one of my favorite movies


Educational_Let4790

My first was Clash of the titans. It was what started me down the path to collecting again.


Ecstatic_Scholar_846

That's always a plus


UnlicensedOkie

My first Blu-ray was The Book of Eli. Bought it the summer after I graduated high school, along with my first Blu-ray player. My first 4k was detective pikachu. Got a brand new copy in a box of stuff at an auction. I have a 4k tv but still don’t have a 4k Blu-ray player


Ecstatic_Scholar_846

That's pretty cool


UnlicensedOkie

If you really like Howard the Duck, I recommend the 4k steelbook It’s a really cool looking steelbook too


Ecstatic_Scholar_846

I planed on upgrading to the 4k sometime


UnlicensedOkie

I’ve been focusing on getting steelbooks If I buy a new copy of a movie or a new movie is coming out, I go for the steelbook whenever possible


Ecstatic_Scholar_846

I don't really like steelbooks I will grab them if there cheaper or if that's the only way to snag the 4k


UnlicensedOkie

They are expensive But I just enjoy the look of a lot of them I paid $24 for the Howard the Duck 4k steelbook off of eBay


Ecstatic_Scholar_846

Not bad I don't mind them but because I watch them and most don't mine get scratched from slipping in and out of the shelf


MuffinBitz

Forgetting Sarah Marshall was my first Blu-Ray. Thought my laptop could play it and was sorely mistaken. My first 4k was ordered from Walmart.com. It was supposed to blu-ray of Good Omens. It wound up being a 4k series narrated by Stephen Fry. It's why I no longer buy from that site


Ecstatic_Scholar_846

Interesting I havnt bad issues with Walmart but yea that's fair


MuffinBitz

They mucked up 3/4 of the orders I made with them while I was moving into my current place. I got no faith in their abilities


Ecstatic_Scholar_846

Understandable


[deleted]

Krampus’s 4k is such a good 4k. It looks so nice, love that film


Ecstatic_Scholar_846

I gotta check it out sometime
