14 minutes from Guardians!!! Fantastic sequel I have seen a bunch of my friends on Facebook say it's as good as the first and a few said they liked it even better. I really need to watch the first one. How do you think the second one compares?

The first one is so great its really not fair to hold it to that standard but it is real close. I need to see the second a few more times. Both use kickass classic rock almost as if its a character in the movie and I love that.

On an objective standpoint I think both are probably even, however due to Kurt Russell being a FAR better villain than Ronan was, I place preference to 2. It seems to be getting slapped for not having the element of surprise that the first one has.

The blu ray transfer is the best I've ever seen. They cared about this box set.

What's this? Jason praising Blu Ray now? It's the only decent transfer I'd ever seen, and I was convinced a transfer of that quality from a film that old could never be done. But looking at this box set, people actually put legitimate work into making a grade-a transfer. Best I've ever seen. That set is so worth it.

Phantasm really fell apart when I first watched it on DVD. The mausoleum sets really looked fake with the improved clarity. Also, films like The Texas Chain Saw Massacre are best viewed on a well worn VHS. Adds to the experience.
