Bourne in HD

Some weeks you look at the movies on the £5 a month PictureBox subscription service and think "so what?" - in fact, most weeks that's been my reaction. But looking at the line up this week they have all three of the Bourne movies in glorious HD...now that's pretty neat. Details here

Only the first one is in HD (in Kent anyway) but the opportunity to watch all 3 is worth a fiver!

I've had these on Blu-Ray for an age and the films themselves have been shown over and over on Freeview channels. HD or not, it'd have to be some far newer releases before I'd even think of parting with a fiver (or any extra cash) for this service. It doesn't help that all the films come from one studio either! I have to say I feel the same way about single pay per views as well.

Oh how dull the posts and comments are getting on here since VM actually entered the world of HD proper... It's like the period immediately following a great War. Blessed relief, with a marbling of anticlimax running through, following the great struggle. How the once mighty crusaders have been reduced to "Well I wouldn't pay a fiver for Bourne, I've seen it"..

Haha, sorry guys, just the musings of a war weary, now redundant war correspondant watching from the sidelines..

Now this is not the end. It is not even the beginning of the end. But it is, perhaps, the end of the beginning.

Some way to go before the war is over!

"Oh how dull the posts and comments are getting on here since Virgin actually entered the world of HD proper"

I wouldn't call the Picture Box "service" HD proper! It's Bargain basement Sky Movies and Freeview channel Film4 has better choice!
