We watched Wreck It Ralph tonight. What can I say that hasn't already been said about this movie? It looks and sounds fantastic. Unlike Brave (which won best animated picture) you actually like these characters. My kids and I got a kick out of the pause feature. This is one of the rare films I want to watch the extras on. WIR is just a fantastic movie

I enjoyed WIR even more this time than when we saw it in the theater. Make sure you pause the movie and enjoy the little bonus feature.

Wreck It Ralph was a great movie with great characters...I absolutely love the Pause feature. This is definitely one edge that discs have over digital storage. I reckon even after importing it, I'll probably still use the disc for that movie in the future...just because of the pause feature.

Yeah, this should have won best animated picture. The AQ/PQ are fantastic as well.

Hit pause during the movie and it takes you to a bonus feature where they point out little details of the movie. 2.0 activation is not required. Just plop it in and enjoy.

Do you order your movies from Amazon here in the States? I've read mixed reviews on Pi so I will rent it first. Let me know what you think of it.

Do you guys have stores similar to Best Buy, Target and/or Walmart down there? I'd think it'd be cheaper and faster to buy locally. Plus you can pick up some Vegemite and Fosters while you're out.tongue.gif Yes, Paperman is included.

We have Target but there Blu ray stock is horrible. Sometimes Amazon get there movie earlier than we do so its easier to buy from them. Nothing like Fosters and Vegemite sandwiches when watching a movie biggrin.gif

Yeah, Targets BD selections aren't that great. But they do stock new releases. I occasionally buy some BDs (Steelbooks) from Amazon.UK. What does Amazon.com (U.S.) charge to ship a BD to you in OZ? Lol. I haven't had lunch yet. Sign me up for the Franin special.biggrin.gif

I usually go courier. I could pay which includes the DHL around $30 a movie but I will pay that over here esp for new ones anyway.

Btw how was Rise of the guardians?

Nothings cheap anymore.

Rise was a lot better than I thought it would be. It was a rental, but after watching it my kids said I should buy it. Yeah right. As soon as they pick up their rooms.

Hey there, Franin.

My vacation was well needed and fun. Thanks for asking. We're back in the US of A now. But still keeping it going with an extra day in Florida. The kids are out swimming, and I'm just killing time in the hotel room. How have you been, mate? Add any new blu's to your collection?

I broke down and bought Rise of the Guardians for the kids. What can I say? I'm a softy.biggrin.gif

On a different topic, we watched Life of Pi tonight. Watched it with my kids and two of their friends. Lol. When the movie was supposed to be dramatic and sensitive, all I heard was giggling and muffled talking. biggrin.gif Also, kids make some good observations. Such as when they're stranded on the boat in the ocean, one kid says, how come the animals don't poop? Where's the poop? Which then lend into a whole other discussion.eek.gif All in all, it was a pretty decent movie.

That is a very good observation I guess we got to look pass the poop and make our own conclusion on what happened to it biggrin.gif
