Close Encounters Of The Third Kind

[Misawa]

One of my favourites from Spielberg. Who's seen it? I got the Ultimate Edition 2-disc Blu-Ray set for my birthday yesterday. The high definition makes everything looks utterly fantastic, it's an amazing transition, probably the second best transfer I've seen, next to Crank. I hadn't seen it in years, so it was just great seeing it again, with all the edits of the Special Edition - on the first disc you can watch 3 versions of the film - the Original Theatrical, Special, and Director's Cut editions, with a feature that tells you what parts are different as the film plays. Blu-Ray is such a step forward from DVD in terms of interactivity and quality.

Call me lazy, but are Blu-Ray players only available in PS3s? Or are there special Blu-Ray players? Because I'm updating my dvd system, starting off with surround sound first. And if Blu-Ray players do exist how much do they retail at? Pound Sterling price please!

PS3 is the cheapest way of getting a Blu-Ray player. Yes, there are Blu-Ray players as it's the only HD format now. They retail at like £500 or something.

First of all, Happy Birthday and yeah. Richard Dreyfuss from JAWS right?
I have it on normal DVD.
