Hey Terrence,

It really was that good wasn't it. I don't know how they did it but it was just superb. Made me think my time and financial investment was all worth while! Although, I think, given some of your posts, your system probably surpasses the majority of home theater systems, so it was probably really great at your place.

As for release date, The local vid store tends to put them up for sale prior to the street date and then puts them out for rent on the street date. Bloody good marketing if you ask me. If you are will to pay the $30 to buy it, you get it a couple of weeks before the rental people. Kind of elitist but I like that! Besides, I was going to buy M and C anyway.

Kill Bill Vol 1 is also available to buy here, although I am a bit reluctant to do it because they will inevitably bring out a 2 or 3 disk "Collectors set" or Ultimate Edition or some such marketing thing so I am thinking I will just rent it when it streets and then buy the entire set. Having said that, the local store also tends to put out full screen editions, which basically guarantees I will buy movies I want to see... If you can believe it, Matrix Revolutions rental version is the full screen version. How painful is that???

Thanks for the reply, good to see some other people are enjoying this film as much as me.
