As I’m reviewing the movies made by Stanley Kubrick, I’m starting to get to the point where their visual aspect is important, actually spectacular. It just so happens that there is a collection of Kubrick movies on Blu-ray. To compare, I bought this 9-disk DVD collection in 2003.

Now, I’m normally against buying newer media, and I postponed buying a Blu-ray player for the longest time out of spite against Sony, but this time I might make an exception. My rationalization is that those Blu-rays have far more extra features than my old DVD set. In my DVD set there were no extras or commentaries whatsoever, but seemed to make it up with a feature-length documentary (that’s not available on the Blu-ray set). And the thing is that I will watch all the extras, so that may be well worth the price. So, there, they’ll get my money.
