What's great about it: audio and video-acting is good
What's not so great: cannot think of any
My family and self is a mummy fan so this one fits right in. Good plot, acting and special effects...without giving too much away the yettes (aboniable snowmen) were pretty far fetched, other than that good movie.
I would recommend this to a friend!

What's great about it: Audio and video alright
What's not so great: kind of boring
The first time I watched only half way through and turned off. A couple of weeks later I finished watching and it really did not get any better. The aliens head and aliens kind of ruined it, should of stayed along the original lines of past movies, not make up artifacts......my son agreed with me, he finished the whole movie the first time and told me it gets worse, and aliens show up. He was right.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

This is really a great film. Audio is fantastic with True HD (I also own a HD version and only came in DD+). True HD sounds a whole lot better than DD. Video is very good also. This is one of my all time favorite movies.

What's great about it: Great 3D and color was all right on my set up
What's not so great: could not think of any
I thought the color was great, and so did my wife and teenage son, maybe it was the darker home theatre set-up and a large plasma television, 50". 3D experience was excellent along with the dolby digital surround. It does state to set the tv at a certain setting for color and 3D setting but I have my set-up that way anyways. I thought this was one of the better experiences for movies for the year. Highly recommend this Blu-Ray.

What's great about it: acting
Watched last night with my family. If you want a good movie to make your wife shut her eyes and plug her ears this is it. It is a suspenseful movie, you do not know where the strangers are going to be next..in the house or outside. Anyways overall not a bad movie.

how much is a gold membership?

Is it cheap? o_O at least, what's the best buy?
If you buy certain games they include a free subscrition for x-box live for a month and it is usually a gold membership. I have two accounts one for me and one for my son. It is around 40 dollars a year if I remember right and I think it is worth it. You can download demos of the games and play them before you buy. Very expansive network of things to do

X-box 360 or PS3 which and why

Have not tried a PS3 but have a Elite and Pro for my boy. I use my elite to stream music, pictures, movies from my computer to my tv which is pretty neat. Also they just did a update for x-box live which improved everything a lot. I enjoy all the games you can purchase and the x-box live experience is awesome. Hope this helps.

What should i buy, a Xbox or a Xbox elite?

I purchased a Elite. The reason at that time the other consoles did not have hdmi cable hookup and also did not have a 120 gb memory. Now I believe most of the 360's have hdmi hook up. And you can also buy a 120 gb for memory now as a accessory.
