    Please Kill me, I'm an idiot.

    I don't know how this idea will be received from a common lurker, but I enjoyed this thread so much and empathized with Mike to such a great degree that I wanted to do something for him to ease his pain and help him enjoy his new set. What do people think about chipping in 25 cents each to a...

    Bubba Ho-Tep

    Little off-topic, but fans of this movie should read Joe R. Lansdale's excellent short story (more of a novella) that the film is based upon. It's available in his "High Cotton" collection. Highly recommended reading, as is almost of his work for fans of dark mystery/humor.

    Need IN LIVING COLOR out on DVD

    David, I also would LOVE to see this show released - presonally, I think that Jim Carrey and Damon Wayans have never been funnier in any of their subsequent endeavors. Unfortunately, Peter Staddon from FOX told us that this show has little, if any, chance for a release at all in the future...

    Viable alternative for watching unstretched 4:3 material on some 16:9 RPTV's...

    Manuel, Great idea and post! I have the panny 53WX42 and have been using JUST when I (rarely) watch broadcast tv, but I may switch over to your method. The panny remote I have even allows you to create the 3 small PIPs w/ the touch of one button - "search" if I remember correctly...

    Center Channel placement on RPTV?

    Hello all - I'm (finally) taking delivery of a panny 53WX42 today, and I was wondering if it would be alright to place my center channel speaker (20 lbs or so) on top of the set. I've heard of bowing experiences, but usually only with multiple items (like bulky receivers) on top. Thanks...

    First impressions of my panny 53WX42

    Josh, thanks for your suggestions. Unfortunately our HT room is also our living room, so the closed-door theory won't work. But the plastic/wood sheet certainly will, and is cheap/easy to boot. Also, my girlfriend has been talking about making theater curtains for the set - obviously not as much...

    First impressions of my panny 53WX42

    No protective screen on the WX42? Hmmm... while I'm thrilled that glare won't be an issue (GF likes watching movies with the light on sometimes), we do have a dog who is not generally destructive or clumsy (and has *never* jumped up or scratched appliances, or paid any attention to any of our...

    First impressions of my panny 53WX42

    Tony and Josh, You guys are killing me! Or rather my patience. After both of your recommendations, I placed my order late last week for the WX42. Now the wait.... mine should arrive around the 12th of next month (shipping from the east coast warehouse, which is why it's taking a little longer...

    Be honest....Since most of my dvds are 2:35:1 is burn in that much of a threat???

    Chris, Some DVD players *can* move the 2.35 image around the screen, like the malata n996 - not as nice as the popular panny progressive models, but still a nice player (region free as well), and *very* helpful for avoiding screen burn-in. Having this player was one of the reasons that I...
