...with new movies being released simultaneously on DVD and Blu-ray and more catalog titles coming every week, I honestly don't see how anyone who claims to like movies and care about video quality can convince themselves they don't need blu-ray.

I don't need any of those pictures except The Godfather. Unforgiven is mediocre IMO but if The Unforgiven came out I'd consider. Like I said, eventually a tipping point might be reached, not yet.

So you don't understand people who don't think like you, eh? I'm that way about some things myself but not about video.

  I'm with you though. My BIL's ~60HDTV has a much better picture than my X1, I can see that easily. Does it bother me, no. Sound; seriously important, particularly for music. But video, eh. If I had endless cash I'd get an HD PJ and probably BD. But as it stands, I'll wait for my X1 bulb to blow first. When it needs replacing I'll go HD.
  There are just too many things to spend my money on (even just in my room) before I'd upgrade the picture.
