My dream living room would involve an Oppo BDP 103, Paradigm speakers, Infocus projector, and this fine receiver! I definitely could use it. My current Sony receiver is 10 years old and doesn't have HDMI capability. :(

Would love to see Jolie's UNBROKEN in Bluray. Thanks!

Not a big fan of streaming, but I do plan on trying out Netflix soon because I've had it with cable. It's true I don't go to the theatre as much as I did in the late 1990s and early 2000s. I still go out if there's something I want to see, or something unusual happens along. A screening of...

This sounds like an interesting low-budget indie film. I'd definitely like to give the DVD a spin. Count me in for the giveaway!

Anyone here see THE STEPFATHER (1987) Blu available at any B&M store? I can't seem to find it anywhere. Thanks in advance.

/img/vbsmilies/htf/alien.gif Thanks for the heads up, guys! This is pretty incredible news. I never even bothered checking iTunes for this. I've been waiting for a widescreen version of this since...umm...1996! Wow, time flies.

Great thread topic. So far, I only have seasons 1 and 2, but I would also mention EVAN from season 1. I think the second season is much stronger in terms of storytelling. The BUSHIDO was great and focused on Castillo's backstory. OUT WHERE THE BUSES DON'T RUN was tense and exciting. FRENCH TWIST...

Michael, I usually don't respond to Blu-Ray reviews, but I wanted to take a moment to let you know that you knocked this one right out of the park. This is an excellent critique of the film, and a great summary of this latest edition. I guess I'll have to still hold on to my old 1996 Pioneer...

Matt, I just wanted to congratulate you on a job well done. These covers will be excellent for the Bluray Bonds. I'd like to ask you a favor. I still need to finish my Bond DVD covers. The CD-R zinema sent me a few years ago has been corrupted. The copies I made of the covers are lost. It would...

I'm pretty impressed by the new transfer on the Blu-Ray. The colors are much stronger than anticipated. I've seen this film countless times on VHS, Laserdisc and the earlier DVDs. It feels much less hazy and I'm noticing greater detail. However, I've noticed a slight jitter or flutter to the...

Hey, guys. I'm really excited about these releases, too. Especially since FOR YOUR EYES ONLY is my favorite Roger Moore entry. I picked up FYEO and From Russia With Love from Target last night. They both ring up at 19.99 each. No problems here. I threw them on the PS3 last night. They load...

I picked up both Demons and Demons 2 last week. It felt great finally getting 16X9 upgrades. Unfortunately, I experienced playback issues with Demons 2. Halfway through the film, during chapter 12 (the garage melee) the picture froze and staggered and could not be fixed without going past the...

I agree. I'm a Michael Mann fanatic. I have all the Anchor Bay discs etc. I still cherish my WHV widescreen laserdisc from the early 1990s of the theatrical cut. Now, I haven't checked out the new MGM release, but I'll stick with my Japanese DVD import which I believe is NTSC. It's a remarkable...

Thornhill, Glad I'm not the only one that remembers these incredible films. I don't know anything about Toto Le Hero, but there is a decent Region 2 Pal DVD of The Hairdresser's Husband. It's from a company called Second Sight. It's 16x9 Anamorphic in French with English subtitles. It also...

I'm currently setting up a small room for primarily music listening. I'll have CD, SACD, DVD-A, Sirius, and a turntable. I have everything set-up including speakers and receiver, but right now I'm looking for a small subwoofer that works well for 5.1 music, but won't overpower the room, or click...
