Every time I watch this, I find the trash-talk scene with Joker and Mother incredibly jarring.. Their back and forth is so unfunny and the reactions of their audience so overblown ("Well, they call me 'the joker'.. LOL!! Oh no he didn't!! LOLOLOL HAhahahaha!!), that I have to ask - is it some...

What the.. Why so expensive on Amazon, et al?? Along with Last of the Mohicans, Rob Roy, and Master and Commander, this is one of my favourite 18/19th century dramas.

Just rewatched it to get the bad taste of Genesis out of my mouth.. Great, classic movie.. But I still don't get the paradox of Reese going back in time to save his unborn son who would not have been even concieved... if he hadn't gone back in time in the first place!?? Has this been...

Okaaaay.. Guess they just threw the cliffhangy stuff from last season out the window (Bruce moving back to the US, Emma getting cozy with her ex, Emma's parents splitting).. Still, glad it's back!

Just curious just how far back I'm 'supposed' to be seated from my TV (LG - 32"x54"), and how high it 'should' be on the wall (from the floor to the center of TV), optimally? How far apart should the fronts be (as far as possible, I assume), and do I point them at the center of the seating...

Anyone see this? Looking forward to the new season.. Btw if you like Homeland, you'll love the Isreali TV series it's based on, 'Hatufim' (Prisoner of War).

Anyone watching this? Some good, good stuff...

Anyone watching this? Should I be embarrassed that I laugh so hard??

My settings are fine, anyone else have this issue? Also not getting newsletters..

I've noticed this with a few Blu-ray movies, most recently the Empire Strikes back, yesterday the Sound of Music.. The frame freezes for a millisecond, then it's fine, then 3 minutes later it does it again.. Is this normal? Do I need to update the firmware on my LG BD570C player (Haven't done...

I was ordering my Blu-ray of Ran, and I got to thinking.. I always tell people how pretty much all the common themes in films today boil down to Kurosawa films.. Ie. Story told from several different perspectives? Rashomon. Villiage saved by wandering hero(es)? Seven Samurai. Rogue...

Going to be upgrading my fronts, finally.. Paradigm Studio 60 v.5's to go with my 10 year old LCR-450 center, my ADP-450 dipole surrounds, and my PW-2200 sub. I would LIKE to upgrade the center channel as well so they match, and hopefully it won't be ANOTHER 10 years.. But is the...

Anyone else heard this? I forget where I read it (EW?), but in the article, they were talking about scheduleing of Rome and other HBO shows getting in the way of another show, that was the main topic of the article (Deadwood?).. Sorry the details are so hazy.. But I DID read them.. Man...

I'm building a house.. My rec room will look like this, with a 7.1 system to be arranged thusly: The system will be Paradigm Reference, with ADP-450 dipoles for the rears (if I get them), and the surrounds.. The reciever I haven't picked yet.. Suggestions? As you can see, the...

Ok, let's see if we can get a consensus.. There's 2 camps for the following 2 issues.. Is THIS the ideal configuration: http://tinypic.com/ih731g.jpg With the speakers proximal to the listening area? Or is this the ideal (and if not ideal at least acceptable)...

I'm in a bit of a pickel.. It's becoming clear that if I want 7.1, I may have to go with speaker stands.. Which would mean exposed speaker cable, no? As I don't want to go under the carpet with it, and have that ugly line showing up under there.. :frowning: Here's a top view of the...

Here is the floor plan, and where I was thinking I'd put the sub and floor standing speakers.. http://tinypic.com/igglmv.jpg I want (I should say my wife wants) to have opitimal (by optimal I mean out of the way, AND the best sound quality) for listening both in the living room, AND the...

You know the ones in the hotels where they have the TV that can be pulled out and rotated? Where do they get them? Or am I going to have to get one custom built? Thanks!

See, now, Bill Hunt at the Digital Bits would say that it was an hour too SHORT, as to him it seemed almost as if the stuff that makes the first 90 minutes boring (character development, pacing etc) comes into play in what makes the rest of the movie feel one-dimentional.. I dunno, I haven't...

This anime movie (divided into chapters, and as of yet an unfinished masterpiece): http://atomfilms.shockwave.com/conte...jai/index.html Just blew me away! I laughed, I cried (like a baby! :b ).. I can't recommend it more highly.. WARNING!! It is SUPER violent! Think Ninja...

Can anyone tell me if this series is a kind-of prequel to Episode III, or is it better watched AFTER? I was watching a bit of a DVD of the series in the mall today, and it looks awesome, but I don't want it to ruin anything for me for when I watch Episode III, which I fervently hope is better...

Just got finished watching "Finding Neverland" on DVD.. Imagine my chagrin at being subjected to a truck commercial after the trailers, quickly turning into murderous RAGE when I discovered I could by no means fast forward through it.. I hit the "skip chapter button", nothing.. I had to hit...

Looks like they're slowly going to be squeezing Gil out of a job.. Well, William Peterson has made no secret of the fact he's not happy.. So, they're either "killing" him off... Or they're going to shake things up enough to keep him interested..

Sartre was right.. Hell IS other people.. It's so cliche.. The moron who thinks if he unwraps his candy SLOWLY, it'll be less annoying. But every movie I go to.. Would it be so time-consuming to take the crap out of the wrappers and put them in something like a pop-corn bucket, or a...

Anyone notice how not a movie has gone by in the last year or so where someone has not enjoyed a good cigarette? Gratuitous cigarette scenes abound in EVERY SINGLE MOVIE that I've rented this year.. Hidalgo, Open Range (they do a CLOSE-UP on Kevin Costner's coffin nail, for the love of all...

I was watching a Sopranos re-run the other day.. Tony's maid is Russian, and is speaking in "Russian" to her husband.. And it was just EXCRUCIATING!! Phyisically painful.. To all those other Russian speakers out there whose ears bled with mine, I appologize on behalf of casting directors...

Hi! My brother was asking me if there were any decent front projectors out there for under $2,000 US.. I know, I know.. Decent will be a stretch, especially for home-theater.. But does anybody have any suggestions or referals? I have my Sony VPL-400Q... You might be able to find one...

Saw it yesterday and thought about picking it up.. Haven't seen it, but I love the novel, and have read it countless times. Can anybody who has read the book and seen the movie tell me if it's worth it? Or will it just ruin the book for me? The vampire looks pretty cheesy.. But how is the...

I don't care who knows it, I still love this show! Last night was awesome! Francis: "I'm sorry Otto, I dunno what happened, it was like someone else was hitting him... " Otto (one of my favorite characters, btw): "I know, it vas me!!". I still can't stop thinking about that and...

Anyone have it? How hard is it on the system? I have a P3 450, 128RAM, Geforce 256 video card. I won't be upgrading till next year, and I need a good game that isn't too demanding to tide me over till then.. :) Thanks in advance for your comments! Also, anyone know of any good...
