Worth buying it even if I have the DVD version? I have the one with the box art with Optimus Prime, Bumblebee and Megatron faces on the cover and Shia & Megan below. And it didn't had the Disc 2 bonus.

Does the Blu-Ray version have a lot of differences?

 

 

 

*hopes everyone ignores all of his posts with the obvious spelling and grammatical errors*

The Blu-Ray disc has the same stuff that the regular 2-disc DVD set had.

I mean graphic-wise, does it look a lot better than the DVD version?

I hope it does, it is a Blu-Ray DVD after all, but I'm sure that it does look better than the normal DVD. I already have the 2-disc DVD and I don't think this movie is good enough to buy again on Blu-Ray.

If you have a flat panel HDTV, then by all means only get Blu-Ray versions of movies whenever you can. This is especially true of modern movies that are digitally stored in 4k formats. They look stunning on BR 1080p home video.

 

Now if you're just on a regular TV set of some CRT type, you're not going to get much advantage over DVD.

From my personal experience, it mostly depends on what kind of TV you're using. Watching Blu-Rays on my 42" 1080p TV I can see a remarkable boost in image quality, but watching them on my friend's 720p TV of the same size is a pretty minimal improvement over regular DVD's. Why he bought that thing I'll never know.

I don't know much about TVs but I just bought a new one and its says (37" FullHD 1080p).

 

I don't have a HDMI cable but I was recommened to get one, supposedly to use the full potential of HD...

This is true if you're using a PS3 for playing your Blu-Ray movies. It will only output in 1080p using the HDMI cable. This is supposedly because the HDMI format has anti-piracy protection, though I'd expect pirates would use software to rip the data directly from the disc, rather than worry about trying to record the output signal from a player.

 

Speaking of Blu-Ray, I just gave a demonstration to my parents using the movie "Sunshine" in 1080p in 5.1 digital surround sound. They were blown away by the picture quality.

Wait, what? I have a PS3 and a 42" Samsung HD TV and buy my movies in Blu-Ray. I use my HDMI cable and I'm not limited to just 1080. If you follow the setup correctly it will go through the configuration of what your TV is capable of and then only let you choose those options. You can go from 1080 down to 720 if you want to.

 

BTW when you go to get your HDMI cable, stay away from "Monster Cable" unless of course you got serious money to burn. I believe Engadget did a great comparision on Monster vs. Brand X.
