Thanks for the suggestions guys. Grizzly Man may give the kids real nightmares, as well as the parents. It is in bear country!

My wife and I just purchased a weekend getaway cabin, and I put in a small home theater set up. I won't have dish for a while, and was looking for suggestions for movies with summer, lake, cabin, etc. themes. A few that come to mind are The River Wild, The Great Outdoors, and Funny Farm. Any...

I recently saw Hitchcock's The 39 steps for sale for 1.00 at the Dollar Tree. This came in a cardboard envelope with no case. I didn't have the time to look at the specifics of the disc, and was wondering if any one has any information on the quality of the disc. I'm not sure who released it as...

I for one like that movie a great deal!

I have the Runco CL 700 projector, and I LOVE it. I think you will be quite pleased. The room looks great. I would like to have loungers like that at some point.

Another recommendation from a satisfied viewer!

I love this thread! I almost posted the same thing last night. I watched Standing In The Shadows Of Motown, and was blown away. If you like music, and more importantly Motown, you will love it.

Let the berating begin!:)

Thanks for the information guys. Is this series aspect ratio 16x9, like Band of Brothers? I thought that Band of Brothers had the best video quality of any television production I've ever seen.

I was wondering what you guys thought of The Sopranos for a blind buy. I'm not a huge mobster genre fan, but I would rate Goodfellas in my top 5 of all time, and I liked the Godfather films. I also thought that the HBO series Band of Brothers and From the Earth to the Moon were first rate. So...

Thanks for the replies guys. I took your advice, and my 5 y/o, and 2 y/o watched Singin' In The Rain, and we LOVED! it. I can't believe how athletic Gene Kelly, and his fellow dance partners were. Amazing, with great tunes. Thanks again. I will get to several on this list.

Wow, thanks for the replies guys. I should have been more specific Derek and stated OAR, as I would miss out on great musicals from the 50's. There were many good suggestions.

Thanks Robyn. I will check these out. I have also considered Cats as I believe my daughter might like this one.

I am unfamiliar with many of the old musical classics, as I've never been fond of this genre. However, I have a 5 y/o daughter who is crazy about them. I'm asking for your opinion on DVD's with widescreen transfers, with relatively good transfers and audio that my daughter might enjoy. I think I...

I used a counter similar to this from a Wal-Mart eyeglass counter, which was lighted, and I got it for free to boot. It really looks great, and I painted it a deep midnight blue to match my decor. Look around for places going out of business, remodeling etc.
