    Sony KF-50WE620 image blocks?

    Oh my, I've been a big fan of the ThunderCats since the 80s. I've already started building up my collection beginning with the old school Transformer DVD by Rhino.

    Studio Ghibli movies coming to DVD this year?

    I've already ordered my Spirited Away DVD from YesAsia.com. I can't wait to see it. I have most of the other movies from Ghibli Studio. I have to see this movie before it comes out in theaters. Hopefully, the red tint problem plaguing the R2 version won't show up.

    Japanese Horror Flic: Audition

    I heard a lot about this movie and checked it out when I saw it at the local Blockbuster. It was quite disturbing. I also got confused with certain scenes, but it all settles in a while. Another thing, I think there were some parts that had some poor editing. This was very obvious in the...

    Amores perros

    I see the subtitles, too. However, I noticed that the screen gets coated with a faint yellow color every time the subtitles come on. It is very annoying. The problem is very noticeable during the night scenes. Go to the part where Ramiro first robs a store. You will see him talking to his...

    Are there any rare DVDs?

    Ahh, I see. That price is currently out of my reach. Also, I have yet to see a Criterion edition. Just imagine how much a first copy would rake in, especially if it is a Criterion one.

    My Grave of the Fireflies didn't come with the inner insert thing.

    Hi there, What do you mean by inner insert? As far as I know, my copy of GOTF only had the registration card as the insert. Carlo

    Are there any rare DVDs?

    I've never seen one. Is there such a thing? If DVDs are collectible, then there has to be some special, rare DVDs out there.

    100" TVs

    Just out of curiousity, has anyone encountered these things? I'm seeing a lot of these on Ebay latelty. I know they are no good, but I would like to see some reviews and an explanation on the basic setup. From the limited info I obtained, these use some sort of magnifying sheet. Nevertheless...

    Looking for the best/cheapest way to get VHS tapes converted to DVD... Suggestions?

    Turning VHS home movies into VCDs would not be optimal. From my experience, VCDs tend to have lower image quality compared to VHS. You can, however, do it your self and as mentioned above, invest on a video capture card and a DVD burner. For the capture card, I find Pinnacle Systems' DC10+...

    Shaolin Soccer

    Hi folks, I just read that Shaolin Soccer is being released in US movie theaters. I guess Hong Kong flicks are gaining popularity every minute. Anyway, I just saw the DVD for this movie on sale and was wondering if anyone has a copy? What do you think?
