I just pulled the trigger and bought the A2 with the newest amazon deal. I was going to buy a few other discs no this 3 for 2 deal but wanted to get some quick opinions as I would be duplicating some of my current dvds and wanted to know if other here thought it was worth it: Casino, T3, Superman the Movie, Shaun of the Dead, Goodfellas, Last Samurai, Serenity (just bought the newest release) & 40 Year old Virgin.
My current HDTV does not have HDMI so I will be hooking up via component. Are any of those titles not really worth upgrading?
I was also going to bite on Batman Begins but am a little worried that a new release might be forthcoming since the new movie is coming out next summer.
Any opinions?

I already have just about all of the released HD discs that I want. I did place an order though in an attempt to get The Usual Suspects at a reasonable price.
$48.90 for Pirates 1 & 2 and The Usual Suspects. I will sell Pirates 1 & 2 on Ebay and hope to get around $40.

Back in the day, I bought titles on both formats before I had either - to hold me off from buying the SD DVD counterpart in the meantime...then when I finally got my players, I was set to watch titles right away!

I've been stretching the limits of my credit card, but I just ordered Beerfest, Shaun of the Dead and Eternal Sunshine. I've been wanting Beerfest since it came out, sold off the first version of Eternal in anticipation of the 2 disc sd dvd but then never picked it up and I ebayed Shaun a few months back when the HD was announced... I'll be glad to have those two gems back in my collection!

I really have to hold back on ordering more... As there are video games and future releases coming out that I really want. Damn, nothing for so long then, Bam. When it rains it pours.

Couldn't resist after all. Got Serenity, Unforgiven and The Big Lebowski. Will be selling the Lebowski and Serenity DVDs which should take a few bucks more off the top. Good deal for $40.

Well, don't get too excited, because later this year, you'll see even better deals.
