High-Def Movies

I could not get into Firefly, but I fully enjoyed Serenity.

Watched Leon: The Professional in 1080p this weekend. I almost forgot what a ride that movie is.

One of my all time favs. Luc Besson's best picture ever, imo. Also one of my favorite Gary Oldman performances. Is the Blu-ray version uncut?

Wow, ya know, I can not recall. I have seen the movie so much (even own the DC on DVD) that I don't know what is added footage anymore. I actually borrowed the movie from a work mate and gave it back so totally unsure. <- FAIL :|

The main things cut out were a lot of the extra hits Leon goes on with the girl. Like the one where she goes to the door and he is waiting with the bolt cutters...

Doesnt the DC expand on the weird "love/relationship" shared between them and much of that is taken out of the theatrical? Damn, it might be that I have never seen the theatrical release then cause I recall all of that and dont recall never seeing it without that stuff.

IIRC, Leon: The Professional is the complete as to where The Professional is the theatrical release? I could be wrong. I need to look this up, heh.

Correct.

I'm not 100% sure either, but I think "The Professional" was the US Release title and the cut version while "Leon" was the European title and was uncut.

Either way, just a phenomenal film. I really like some of Luc Besson's stuff. And for some reason I still haven't seen La Femme Nikita. Gotta put that at the top of the queue...

La Femme is great, just avoid that crappy US remake "Point of No Return" with Bridget Fonda. GOD AWFUL.

Speaking of Besson, I should check out Fifth Element on the new system. Very colorful, vibrant film so I bet it looks great.
