Sony's putting out a new, slim PS3 that uses 34% less power, is much lighter and slimmer, I think on September 1st. It's gonna be $299. It'll have all the Blu-Ray capabilities. Plus, you get all the automatic updates from Sony, so you'll always have the latest BR features when watching movies. On top of that, you get an awesome gaming system. ;) And it's not much more expensive than a decent Blu-Ray player, and you're getting one of the better Bly-Ray players out of the deal.

My cousin works for Mr. Softee so I have an Xbox 360. I don't play it enough to consider another gaming console. At least, not at this time.

That's only because you don't have a PS3. ;)

My dad was buying a Blu-Ray player a year or two ago and I told him I would pay the difference between the player and the PS3 so we could get a PS3 instead. He said we weren't getting another gaming console. :(

Any advance thoughts?
Also, it's definitely not a semi-spoof of 'The Dirty Dozen'. It does pay homage to the original Inglorious Bastards, and it's definitely a spaghetti western.

What else is left for Tarantino to do?

I posted this in the wrong thread. So, figured I would post it here also.
