    So now we're reduced to personal attacks? I'll take the high road on this one. I'm out.

    Godfather Blu-ray Confirmed

    And I intend to watch the dvd version so I can make a comparison. I encourage everyone else to do the same before jumping to the conclusion that the bluray version is so much better than the dvd version.

    Godfather Blu-ray Confirmed

    I strongly suggest that you watch the DVD version of this new restoration. Considering all the work that was done for this project, I'd imagine that the dvd version of this restoration is a huge improvement over the 2001 dvds.

    Godfather Blu-ray Confirmed

    I stand corrected. Now I'm not saying that I wanted this bluray to look like Patton...but I do wish the image was a little bit sharper/clearer. Look at the Star Wars dvds. Nearly all grain was taken out without sacrificing the film like look of the trilogy.

    Godfather Blu-ray Confirmed

    Does anyone have the new DVD version of the Coppola Restoration? I'm curious about how it compares to the bluray... I'm sitting here comparing the 2001 dvd of Part 1 to the bluray version...and the difference isn't as obvious as I thought it would be. The bluray version has a little...

    Upscaled dvds no better than 480p through component?

    You guys misunderstood. I have my ps3 connected through HDMI. I was saying that "upscaled" dvds through hdmi on my samsung look no better(maybe worse) than my 6 year old panny rptv hooked up to a panny rp82 progressive scan dvd player through component. So now that we've established...

    Upscaled dvds no better than 480p through component?

    I should also mention that blurays look very good on my tv. HDTV programming is a mixed bag...sometimes it looks decent..sometimes it looks like crap...I use QAM to get local channels in hd through cable...but I think I will go out and get a silver sensor antenna soon.

    Upscaled dvds no better than 480p through component?

    I am seriously starting to believe that upscaled dvds look no better than 480p through component. In 2002 - 2006 I had a 53 inch panasonic RPTV and a panasonic rp-82 progressive scan dvd player connected through component. DVDs looked great on it. Especially Lord of the Rings. Today, I...

    The Dark Knight (2008)

    yes I remember, and I'm glad they toned that down for TDK.

    The Dark Knight (2008)

    NO!!!! Nolan's Batman universe is supposed to be realistic. Flashy Kung Fu/Karate/Tae Kwon Do is NOT realistic. Watch Jet Li and Jackie Chan is you want to see that garbage. I'd much rather see some brutal Muay Thai technique...elbows, knees, etc.

    VIZIO 1080p 47" vs. VIZIO 50" 720p plasma(P50)

    Which TV is overall better quality? I'm trying to decide between these two.

    Anyone here work for a temp agency before?

    Nothing in particular. I am open to any non-technical(engineering, accounting, computers) position, mainly because I don't have the qualifications and training for those. I was interested in trying out a human resources position, but the recruiters I've spoken with so far have told me that it...

    Anyone here work for a temp agency before?

    Thanks for the advice everyone. I forgot to mention. I'm more interested in temp-to-hire positions then simply temp assignments.

    Anyone here work for a temp agency before?

    So heres the deal. I just graduated college with a psych degree, and I lack work experience. I had planned on pursuing either clinical psych or teaching, but since last year I have decided I want to avoid it if possible. From what I've read so far, temp agencies are a good idea for people...

    Blockbuster to favor Blu-ray HD discs over DVD format

    Actually, that's EXACTLY what they just did.

    Yeah, that's EXACTLY what I implied when I said acting like you don't want the job doesn't work well. :rolleyes

    Dreamz is a scumbag. Period. He couldn't even admit his mistake. Complete joke of a person, I'd be a ashamed to be associated with him in any way.

    Rome Season II

    Was anyone else disturbed by Marc Antony and Cleopatra's rotted bodies being displayed at the ceremony? We have seen those types of things happen with other defeated people's heads being displayed in public, but Marc Antony was actually a character I liked.

    lol @ Dreamz trying to convince Alex and Mookie that he didn't turn on them. Get a clue Dreamz. All it takes is for someone to know elementary school math to realize that you screwed them over.

    HDMI cables for only $2.94(amazon.com)!!!!

    http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00...d_i=B000E8OVMQ I just ordered these. so when you can get them at such a low price... why would anyone spend over $50 for HDMI cables at the store? Also, the reviews for this cable are very positive. Some reviews say that they are even more...

    Forget that part then. I'll change it to: Strongest female player of that season.

    Survivor: Fiji

    So what? It doesn't take a genius to be able to lie to someone then stab them in the back. You seemed to imply that somehow that showed skill and/or intelligence on Dreamz's part. When I was in elementary school, I would lie to people who were far more intelligent than me all the time. They...

    Not true. Outlasting does not = outplaying. According to you...Jenny and Kate from the Palau Season played the game better than Stephanie(the strongest female player ever in survivor)??? After all, they lasted longer(mainly because they were riding coattails).

    Survivor: Fiji

    So Alex is clueless. Doesn't change the fact that Dreamz's move was pretty stupid. Dreamz accomplished two things with this stupid move: 1. He let Earl know that he cannot be trusted. Now that Earl's Alliance has the numbers, why the hell will they keep Dreamz around? 2. He just threw...

    Actually the opposite. He was homelss growing up, but was able to work his way up to being....a cheerleading coach.

    Survivor: Fiji

    Dreamz did not punk anyone. Anyone can flip and screw over a smart player when it makes little sense. It's just that rarely are players stupid enough to do it. Dreamz is not thinking more than 1 move at a time. The Horsemen's plan was going to work. Period. Earl Alliance were gonna...

    Dreamz is a dumb ass. "I'm mad that they didn't tell me they had the idol earlier" then a couple days later: "Mookie has the idol!!" Great. So now Earl knows that you are not to be trusted, if you so easily just expose a former allies secret like that.
