Would love to upgrade our Onkyo HTiB to a legit theater like experience with this Dolby Atmos capable Denon receiver! Our family of 11 (!) would have much better movie nights!

Looking at the Target ad, these are regular DVDs, not Blu-Rays, with the possible exception of The Dark Knight which shows a Blu-Ray package. Each of the others when viewed online, shows DVD when you click the package to view details. The Dark Knight doesn't have any details available when you...
I don't see it in Today's Deals... today (Tues). But found a $10 coupon on Slickdeals.net that brings it to $9.99...

Am I the only one that noticed a big improvement in the picture quality? Last season's HD Premiere was a let down as I didn't think the picture looked all that great.
I picked up the Sony XDR-S10HDiP. It's a clock radio with integrated HD Radio and iPod dock (iPhone/Touch compatible). I paid $179 at Fry's for it, and got a $50 mailed rebate from HD Radio. Don't know if the rebate is still active, but Amazon has it for $149. I have been VERY...
Wow, I guess I'm not alone in my boredom. If you guys haven't already, you really should check out that link in the first post to the Boston Globe's Big Picture, it's cool. Anyone else have a cool site like that I can add to my bookmarks?
Alright, It's 4:33am, and I'm bored. I was thinking that with the web being around since Al Gore created it back in the 90's, I really should be having more fun then this. One of my recent favorite sites is The Boston Globe's Big Picture Blog. So what do you guys all spend your web time...
Yeah, I've been complaining to my wife with each new season, "It's STILL not in HD?!" Better late, than never though! Now, if we could just get the people behind Amazing Race to follow suit!!!
Hey Ron, Long time no see man! Hope the holidays were good... Have you considered the Mazdaspeed 3? It's won every comparison test in the recent car magazines that I've read. $24-$26k, about 270hp. 0-60 times in the mid 5's. Hatchback (is that a deal-killer?). Here's a quick YouTube...
Chris, you have to take my movie recommendations with a grain of salt, because I'm pretty easy to please... but I would say The Kingdom is a definite buy if you enjoy action movies. My wife and I saw it at a preview screening here in LA with the director Peter Berg present. It was pretty...
Good idea Jason... I'm a 911 Dispatcher and you'd be amazed (well --- maybe YOU wouldn't!) by the number of open 911 lines we receive from cell phones. Heard everything from guys talking about the pot they just scored to very, uh, "energetic activities". As for testing 911, it's not all that...
No kidding... that's like a target shooter bragging about hitting the broad side of a barn! If you want to impress me, show me the field mouse you shot at a 100 yards with that .50 cal!!!!

Here are a couple links to the "driverless car"... http://www.lse.co.uk/ShowStory.asp?s...car_unveil ed http://www.breitbart.com/article.php...=1&image=large
Kenny, The response time is important if you watch lots of sports or want to use the TV for gaming. If yes to either, you'll probably want to stick with a set that has an 8ms response time. Not mentioned in this thread is the Sceptre line of LCD's. They are available from Costco's website...
With all the LA traffic in mind, you'd be smart to consolidate your trips. For instance if you go to the Getty in the afternoon, go a couple miles East to Westwood in the evening. Great theaters (The Village) where lots of red-carpet premieres are held, and tons of sidewalk cafes and the like...
