    Vudu FandangoNOW Fandango at Home (formerly Vudu) Customer Service Issues

    I wish they allowed for a gift card balance instead of just allowing three gift cards with a max of $100 on each. Sometimes I want to take advantage of deals on lower priced gift cards, but I don't want to minimize my total gift card balance. Hopefully with the rebranding, they will finally...

    UHD Review A Few Words About A few words about...™ - Aliens -- in 4k UHD

    I think you misunderstood the point I was making. Josh said that filmmakers are human beings, and just as prone to making bad decisions as anyone else. I was saying that you could apply the same logic to the other side of the argument -- the fans are also human beings also prone to bad...

    What annoys you?

    Freaking taxes. Doing them each year just gets more complicated and I'm firmly in that middle ground of having more than just W2s to be put in but don't have a big enough return to justify paying someone else to do it. But it's the filing itself that's being extra annoying. Just so many extra...

    UHD Review The Abyss UHD Review

    Does Dolby Vision always mean 4K? I'm not all up on the Dolby terminology, so I'm just wanting to clarify that last part of the "Fandango at Home" answer. I don't have my copy yet, but I'm trying to figure out the best place to redeem the code to make sure I get maximum quality for both...

    Press Release BVHE Press Release: The Abyss, True Lies, Aliens, Titanic, Avatar and Avatar: The Way of the Water (4k UHD) (Blu-ray)

    I read somewhere that Target was switching to only putting out new releases every other week, but I have not seen that officially confirmed anywhere.

    Star Wars: Rogue Squadron (2023)

    I just wish these people who have more money than brains would stop buying comics, so that those of us who genuinely collect and read them can buy them at reasonable prices.

    Films in which the opening theme or song bleeds into/plays over the opening studio logo(s)

    The better exercise would be to make a list of Paramount titles that actually use a fanfare. I just spot checked a few, and the only one I heard a fanfare was Sonic the Hedgehog, and even that was altered to use the sound of Sonic's rings.

    The same logic can be applied to the fans who always argue against any changes to a film.

    Superman (2025)

    No, it just means that sequel naming conventions have gotten quite . . . interesting over the years. Used to be able to just add a number at the end. Then we moved to subtitles. Now, we gotta go with making everything seems like the first one, until it's cool to tap into nostalgia and make it...
