    DVD Review HTF DVD REVIEW: Secretary

    I am a fan of this movie and glad to see the re-release. The original release I have is Non anamorphic and grainy with edge enhancement so it would sound as if at least for the PQ there was a good upgrade.

    HTF HD DVD REVIEW: 300 (Recommended)

    I did notice that the bluray and HD-DVD both got 5/5 on extras but shouldn't the hd-dvd have a slightly higher score than the bluray disc as it contains extras not found on the bluray including an extra commentary (on the dvd side) and PIP Blue screen overlay of every scene matched up to the...

    DVD Review HTF REVIEW: The Little Mermaid - Disappointingly NOT Recommended

    The image isn't bad but is a bit muted and soft. The sound I as well thought was horrible. They have vocals and instruments coming at you from all speakers without much thought put into it. I enjoyed the home theater mix for aladin and lion king but this is bad. The vocals and instruments sound...

    DVD Review HTF REVIEW: Jonatha Brooke Live In New York

    If you like good acoustic rock or folk rock check out here "steady pull" dvd. It is a real hidden gem. How she is not more well known i don't understand. That disc is top notch from beggining to end without a bad song in the bunch and many of which are way better than most of whats on the radio.

    DVD Review HTF REVIEW: Serenity (HIGHLY RECOMMENDED)

    Did anyone see where it was the 3rd best selling dvd this week on the top ten list? I was hoping for one but 3rd isn't bad especially since I bet it will hang around the list for awhile.

    DVD Review HTF REVIEW: The Polar Express - Two Disc Widescreen Edition (HIGHLY RECOMMENDED).

    I agree that the movie itself is overall fairly good but some of the locals they go to even at santa's home are more just scary then endeering and the characters do have a slightly scary look to them that just turned me off. I can see where some people found the movie to creepy for a christmas film.

    Rumors of more pop/rock SACDs coming from Sony

    If the sacd release of Room for Squares uses the same mix as the dualdisc it won't be worth getting as the mix sucks.

    So how is Sheryl Crow's "Wildflower"

    I thought her last album before this was pretty good though not outstanding. This album I like better. It is more mellow thow and lilting. I think there are some good songs on it though I havn't had enough time to listen to it in depth. So far I would say if you are a fan you will enjoy it so...

    HTF REVIEW: House, M.D.: Season One

    Actually it seems to me it took more effort to not make it anamorphic widescreen since it was aired in HD they have 720p widescreen digital version of it.. how hard is it to convert it down to 480p and stick it on a dvd? Instead they took the widescreen digital masters and made it letterboxed...

    HTF REVIEW: House, M.D.: Season One

    Both me and my roomate watch a lot of shows and this is one of our favorites (as well as lost). It has some of the sharpest dialogue on TV. The episode "three stories" that you mentioned is also our favorite of the season and right after we watched it we just sat back in awe and commented that...

    HTF Review: Dead Like Me - The Complete Second Season

    For anyone who doesn't know already the same guy who did dead like me did a short lived show on fox called "Wonderfalls" which has similar characters and setup and is also well written and has the same dark sense of humor and offbeat characters. If you like Dead like me it is worth checking out...
