I liked 3. Somebody on these forums thinks 2 is the best one. Don't remember who.  |  IP: Logged Claude S.

Costco and others have a very good deal on the RAMBO collection for about $53.00 on BD and is wondering if they are worth getting. -Claude  |  IP: Logged Jesse Skeen Phenomenal Film Handler Posts: 1517 From: Sacramento, CA Registered: Aug 2000 posted 11-12-2009 05:43 PM                     Die Hard With A Vengeance has one of the WORST modern video transfers I've ever seen, and proves that THX-certified video transfers don't mean anything. It's got tons of edge-enhancement, so it looks like someone took a black marker and outlined everything on each frame. I've heard the Blu-Ray disc has a new transfer that doesn't do this.  |  IP: Logged Mark Gulbrandsen Resident Trollmaster Posts: 16657 From: Music City Registered: Jun 99 posted 11-16-2009 09:08 AM                     I like all the Die Hard films. There are certainly alot worse picks available in this genre of films. The Rush Hour series of films come to mind. Jessie... was yours a regular DVD or Blew Rae? My Blew Rae looks pretty good and sounds great. Mark  |  IP: Logged Claude S.

There was a sound problem that was reported on one of those HD sites for the second film. When the blu-ray collection was released to the market.  |  IP: Logged Mike Blakesley Film God Posts: 12767 From: Forsyth, Montana Registered: Jun 99 posted 11-16-2009 03:13 PM                        When I first saw Die Hard 2, I liked it better than 1, but lately I've liked the first one better. I remember Ebert said the second one was better than the first.  |  IP: Logged Joe Tommassello Jedi Master Film Handler Posts: 547 From: Coatesville, PA, USA Registered: Jan 2008 posted 11-16-2009 03:19 PM                  Bill - is there a way if you can tell if you have the "defective" DH2?  |  IP: Logged Bill Gabel Film God Posts: 3873 From: Technicolor / Postworks NY, USA Registered: Jan 2002 posted 11-16-2009 03:47 PM                     The defect was with the DTS-HD MA track of the film.
