Seeing that Laufey "collectors edition" just made me laugh and solidify my decision to never spend money on any Sony first party game ever again.

@MrOde - yes it does and a beatiful one at that!!

Both the collector's and deluxe are worth grabbing - also helps the game is excellent

Hi @VectorTwoSix, the sales page for that shows releasing 15 October for all three consoles on my side, which is the official release.

Not sure if there are more shipping delays like other games recently.

Didn't know Armatus existed until now and this looks like it's going to be a banger game!

Prometheus
Got the 3 disc blu ray. Disc one movie, disc 2 3D version & disc 3 bonus features.
I've watched the dvd a few times, & the blu ray looks great!
4hours of bonus features!
There is no real extended opening & ending.
The "extended" opening is just seconds long.
The engineer at the beginning, is surrounded by his comrades.
There is no extended ending, just alternate dialogue. Where they mention the engineers come from a place called "paradise". As thats what the film was originally going to be called.
Both offer nothing really significant to the overall movie.
I still love it

Ghostbusters (2016)

What a great movie! Both my girlfriend and I loved it, and couldn't stop talking about it the entire drive home. Another BluRay buy once it is released.

Ghostbusters - Thoroughly enjoyed it. It really was a re-imagining of the Ghostbusters concept. It was really different from the originals in almost every way, just borrowing a few elements here and there. Loved the whole cast, but Kate McKinnon just blew me away.

Suicide Squad - Turned out to be awful. . .ly good Very entertaining, which was a good surprise as I was expecting a total turdpile. The only bad thing in the movie was Leto's Joker - absolutely horrible and stunk in every scene he was in, worst Joker ever - and Robbie's Harley Quinn. She was pretty terrible as well. Everything else though

Suicide Squad - a heckuva lot of fun. Not GotG fun and maybe around Ant-Man fun, maybe just below, but fun and worth your popcorn money. Story is meh, but carried by Deadshot and Harley and to a lesser extent El Diablo and to a an even lesser extent Captain Boomerang. The rest are pretty forgettable. Killer Croc looks like[censored] and they buried a great actor under makeup with almost no lines. He's wasted. Slipknot, oh my[censored], what was the point of the character! What they used him for could've been accomplished with a simple 10 second scene.

Criticisms, yeah a few. Soundtrack is great, but feels like a teen's mixtape. all the songs thrown in with no rhyme or reason, except glaringly obvious ones for a couple. Amanda Waller is intro'd to Sympathy for the Devil ( ) and AC/DC's Dirty Deeds intros Boomerang because they are both products of Oz!

Villain(s) is pretty generic and forgettable, like Marvel's villains, and the scheme is pretty much a meld of Avengers, GotG and Apocalypse. Evil villain wants to rule the world so creates a light show with a spell in the sky to destroy the world's armies.

Leto's Joker is not in the film much and he is annoying as hell. He also has a stupid line similar to Lex's "psychopath is a 5 syllable word" one. I almost face palmed when he said it to Harley. He is trying to be cool, almost gangster with some psycho, but comes off as, well a twit. His voice and laugh are annoying as hell.

The film is too dark. Everything takes place in the dark so you can't see WTF is going on in the action scenes. Coupled with quick cuts and your head spins. Deadshot and Harley have a couple of cool scenes, i think, but i couldn't really tell what was going on.

Tonally, the film is still dark, but it works as we are dealing with bad guys, but PG-13 did hurt the film.

Risen - Roman tribune must investigate the disappearance of a crucified man whose followers believe he will be resurrected. Quite compelling like a CSI Jerusalem. It does lay it on a bit thick in the last 30 minutes which is a pity as it was doing a great job of a middle line prior to that. Still pretty decent.

Batman vs Superman - I enjoyed this despite the nonsensical story. Got zero interest in watching a longer version though. None of the film made any sense so the few disjointed scenes mattered zero to me. Can't even discuss any points because I have forgotten everything already but that is OK. I do remember thinking it was fun. Lex was terrible and Diana was great. Looking forward to WW less so for JL.

Army of Darkness
Upgraded to the blu ray. The dvd I have is ancient, so the quality looks way better!
The ending is the S-smart one, which is the best & canon.
There is a standard def version on the disc as well, with the "over slept" ending.
I don't know why they put the whole movie on again, just for the other ending?
Standard def looks terrible. They could have just had the other ending as a extra.

Eye in the Sky - brilliant, no moralizing at all (aka Sicario). Must watch. Also clearly shows the difference between UK and USA ROE regards drone strikes.

Alan Rickman's last role.

Is this the one with Ethan Hawke? If it is I don't think I can take this film seriously

Uhm it's the one directed by Gavin Hood and starring Helen Mirren and Alan Rickman, the one with 95% on RT.

Here is the review from the Bolshevik rag The Guardian

Ghostbusters (2016) - While not the complete cluster(censored) I was expecting, it was still a terrible film. Not a terrible Ghostbusters film, just a bad film period. The very definition of a paycheque/mine-it-for-money-franchise film. It was the terrible writing and horrible, I'm-here-for-the-money acting that really killed it. Kate McKinnon felt like she wandered in from a different movie and decided to stay, easily the worst performance of the bunch. In fact almost everyone went through the movie like been here was a chore after an all night bender. No "oomph" in most of the performances whatsoever. Chris Helmsworth looked like he was having a blast though. That plus only one joke worked in the entire movie. Which is really sad because, beneath all that, there's actually a pretty decent plot and some really cool ideas that just never really got utilised. One thing they did get right though, was having a threat that legitimised the need for the Ghostbusters while not been so overblown that no sequel could top the bad guy.

With some better writers, a different director, some tnt up the main casts rears, and they could have a pretty good follow up.

Star Trek Generations
Still a great ST movie

Star Trek Insurrection
Its still...okay, but not that interesting.
I should have watched First Contact after Generations, instead of Insurrection. But I can never remember the order of those two movies.

Generations?! Really, that was one awful film with a story almost as bad as Star Trek the Motion PIcture's. The way they made it all about Kirk instead of the whole TOS cast was exteremely disrespectful.

Its a topical ST TNG story, that you would see on the TV show.
It wasn't all about Kirk. He was at the beginning, which was nice seeing some of the old crew again. & then near the end, where we got to see the two greatest ST captains of all time meet.
& the destruction of the Enterprise D was pretty cool.

Now Nemesis, THAT was a stinker!
