    Official HTF HD Review: Heroes, Season One (Highly Recommended)

    I'm deeply puzzled. Most of my HD-DVDs look fantastic. My LOST Season 1 Blue-Ray looks INCREDIBLE. This series however I would say is way-overly compressed. There's one scene in which the bald-headed Hatian guy is in the background. I would say about 200-300 feet from Claire in that same set...

    Battlestar Galactica: Does Season 1 include the mini-series?

    These shows look GORGEOUS on INHD Comcast. I wish there were more HDVD sets, I think I'm going to just stop purchasing regular DVD now.

    Official HTF HD Review: Brokeback Mountain (Recommended)

    I have mine on the way from Amazon. I did have a somewhat bizarre experience in trying to trade my old DVD copy. I know that EBGames does trade on titles and I thought I could get at least $5 for it. Their system offered me $2 so I just left with it. However, the transaction process...

    Jeremiah Season 2- Any Word yet?

    I agree the wait is endless! Seperately, I do see that on Amazon that Jeremiah 1 is available in their "unbox" service. When I search for Jeremiah Second Season I'm presented with Diff'rent Strokes (nice)

    *** Official BROKEBACK MOUNTAIN Review Thread

    I can't believe I just got around to seeing this. I bought the DVD a long time ago from Amazon and it's been sitting in the "TO WATCH" pile. A few days ago my Tivo Series 3 pulled down Crash so I was reminded that Crash beat this film, so I watched it last night. I'm glad I watched it alone...

    HTF REVIEW: LOST - the complete first season - ADDICTIVELY RECOMMENDED!!!

    I'm really really annoyed at how Best Buy has marketed this. First they tempt pre-orders with a $10 coupon. Now that it's on its way already, they're offering a bonus DVD which my package may or may not come with. AND they're offering $5 off. If I don't get the bonus DVD then I will feel totally...

    If Faroudja is the Pentium4 of DVD players who is the Athlon ?

    I would dispute the analogy - on most weeks looking at a cost/performance ratio , AMD wins. On a few weeks occasionally after a price drop, Intel wins. AMD accomplishes this on probably 1/10th the R&D budget. I think that the impression that AMD is a 'close second' is fueled by a huge Pentium ad...

    Another butchery - Felicity Season 2 Music Changed!!

    Apparently to save money the "pop music" has been changed to either music from the parent company or not well known (and therefore not expensive) music. This is such a butchery, based on some searching it seems to have slipped under you guys' radar. Anyone know about season 3?

    DS9:S4 Best Buy Bonus Disc Details

    Suncoast assures me that they WILL have the bonus disk. For $99 pre-order and TRIPLE POINTS last weekend they can often make the best deal.

    La Femme Nikita: The First Season

    Ah, Alias is a cheap copy of La Femme Nikita!! Jennifer Garner is 10% as good as Peta Wilson!!

    La Femme Nikita: The First Season

    This is a MUST HAVE guys. Brilliant show. Way ahead of its time. Good extras. Great video transfer but the 5.1 isn't discreet enough; more like 'enhanced stereo.' Caveat, I've only watched the first ep so far and the commentary/extra scenes of that first ep. But I am 5 years familiar with this...

    Is there Any Buffy Season 3 Reviews out there yet?

    Is it me or was season 3 just not as good as 1 or 2? I just finished it, and while it was good, I just had a hard time with the mayor. He was a case of "intentional fallicy" to me - he was an annoying character, but, so much so, I just got annoyed with him and that whole plot thread, which...

    True. The lowest % of stinkers has got to be La Femme Nikita.

    DVD Review HTF REVIEW: "Deep Space Nine" Season One (with screenshots)

    Ron, If you have a chance, dig out your set and watch "Progress." It's REALLY good. Having said that, is there anything worse than "Move Along Home"??

    CCF Files for Pronto compatible

    Hello, frustrated with CCF files I found on Remotecentral. They don't have any for my Toshiba 61H71, Panny CP72 or Pioneer VSX-811S. I travel a lot and am not really thrilled about giving up 6 or so hours of my weekend time to learn Prontoedit. I say pronto compatible because I intend to...

    Bought a DVP-CP72P today

    I am frustrated with sequential mode. The manual totally conflicts itself, saying it won't work with DVD-Video but then later on telling you how to set it. It won't work for me. Also, I'm really annoyed that I can't seem to get any of the extra angles working with my Planet of the Apes DVD...

    Replay TV 5040 now for $199 with free shipping

    The only thing that scares me about ReplayTV is that SonicBlue loses a lot of money every month. And has been for awhile. I don't have the figures in front of me and Minority Report is waiting for me in the other room with my new Pioneer 811 receiver & JBL NSP1 speakers....

    Display 61HS30?

    I know that "torch mode" is bad for an RPTV. There's an open box at a local circuit city here on 61HS30 for $1999. I'm sure I can get it for $1899. Problem is, there's no telling how long the previous customer had it in his house...or how long it's been in the store, but they say it's only...

    DVD Review HTF REVIEW: Felicity: The Complete First Season

    I am a guy who was never forced to watch this show, and who also thoroughly enjoys it. Ron, are you stopping with ep #3? That's what the review sounded like, what a shame. What's great about this show is the characters. So much "Hollywood" and "typical TV" is about events. Characters have...

    HBO Cheap now on DirectTV

    I was offered HBO all channels (about 5 I think) for just $10 a month, so I just signed right on up. Question is, if I've watched season 1 and 2 of Sopranos can I jump in now? I'm not even sure what Season that show is officially on. Do they rerun starting with Season 3 ep #1 any time soon...

    Watching OZ!

    Does anyone else find that watching OZ is difficult? I have discovered that I should not watch OZ past about 8pm. I had this awful dream last night that was a story right out of OZ except that I was at the center. I can watch all kinds of stuff on TV, including horror movies, with no ill...

    HTF REVIEW: "Star Trek: The Next Generation" Season One (with screenshots)

    That whole Prime Directive thing was so inconsistent to be ridiculous. They used it when they wanted to. They probably never should have even created the "Prime Directive" in the STU to begin with. In "Lonely Among Us" they bring one of the aliens aboard the Enterprise and show her...

    Weird video effect in Star Trek TNG Season 1

    I've been reading about combs on this forum for, about two years. What exactly IS a comb? I see a burst of noise every so often on some DVDs (this one, and OZ Season one.) It's like a frame of white with staggered thick black lines. I *never* see it on movies. I cannot remember if I see it...

    Amelie - U.S. Specs

    I want the regular French version with subtitles ONLY. NO awful dubbing please. Gosh this has never been discussed in the OAR discussions. We should edit the lingo to be just O and not OAR...I want the O version with subtitles!!
