And damn, wouldn't be awesome if we actually got every Godzilla movie ever made on Blu-ray? The Japanese versions and the American versions on the same disc, of course. I'd probably die from the excitement, and I don't even have blu-ray equipment yet
I would be absolutely delighted to see all the Godzilla films(or even just some of them) released to Blu-Ray format.

That said I would like to suggest, Crow, and as an owner of a hi def TV(a 32" 720p Samsung flat panel) and a Samsung Blu-Ray player, that you may find that ownership of these high end(and hi-def) electronics has a novelty(for lack of better word) and that "novelty" may wear off much sooner than you think. I watch my standard DVDs more often and have evolved to a point where I enjoy them as much as the Blu-Rays. The euphoria of watching my first Blu-Ray DVD has long worn off, replaced by weary anticipation of handing a Best Buy cashier $30 or more for a movie title I could also buy for about $10 less, albeit with less pixels.

I own approximately thirty two(32) Blu-Ray DVD titles and all of them look fabulous on my HDTV while in the Blu-Ray player. Most of the Blu-Ray titles I have cost me $25-30 each and about a half dozen were over $30. Standard equivalents of these DVDs would run between $19-22 depending on whether I buy these online or at Best Buy. Because of the economy I scaled back my Blu-Ray DVD purchases. Now I may a Blu-ray title every couple of months and that's it.

I look forward to the day, Crow when you can post here that you've got these high end electronics in your possession and you're using them. I also believe you'll find that they have a pleasurable effect which, unfortunately, may not last long as long as you'd hope. winky
