    Trying to understand a problem with WNET

    I was hoping somebody could help a guy who isn’t tech-savvy make sense out of a problem I’m having with some WNET/Channel 13 programs. I get my cable from Comcast and don’t have an HD capable TV. In fact, my TV is a standard 4:3 screen. I just haven’t taken the leap yet. My favorite...

    "Ring Two" ... Two versions, but one's only in full-screen

    I've been wondering when this was going to be released, and last night I caught the first mention of it (well, for me, at least) on DVDAnswers. I'm hoping that this is early or incomplete info. The idea of keeping the theatrical release MAR is mind-boggling.

    A.I. and Columbia House

    After looking through the CH online catalog, I noticed that they offer A.I. with both wide and fullscreen on the same disc. I thought there were two releases for this film? Have I missed something or does CH have their own edition available? Thanks! :) Gary EDIT: Even the cover art...

    Question re: Early Morning Leno Repeats

    In the New York area, the Tonight Show is on at 11:35pm (the usual time slot), and then again at 2:05am with repeats of what I think are recent episodes. My question is if the 2:05am episode is a repeat of that night's show, or recent episode being shown a few days later? I missed a guest...

    Can you buy blank DigiPaks?

    All of my frustration over security tags planted beneath DigiPaks has had me thinking about customizing as well. I like DigiPaks when they're done well. In regards with the justifiable issues of wear and tear, I'd use an Amaray style sleeve. It would do wonders in integrating DigiPak...

    An open letter to all studios about Security Tags

    These are the honest words of an angry DVD customer. One of the many aspects of the format that I enjoy is the overall presentation. The art, the style of case used, whether if it is an unusual design - I love it. Now while I can understand the many reasons to protect your product from...

    Hey all, I have to admit, I'm loving the Gap's new ad campaign. The two other commercials are good, but "Two White Shirts" -the one with Dennis Hopper and Christina Ricci poolside against the Beach Boys - has me fascinated. A favor to anyone who might be able to help; I'd like to have this...

    Comcast has struck again, and this Max Headroom fan is not happy. When the YES Network was installed as part of Comcast's line up for Northern New Jersey (I live in Essex County), they put it on channel 64, Tech TV's spot. I had heard from various sources, both print and newsgroups, that the...

    Bakshi's "Fire and Ice"

    I finally had the chance to sit down and look through the Frank Frazetta: Testament folio that I picked up a couple weeks ago, and to my delight Fire And Ice was touched upon briefly.

    800.com - shipping and service question

    Hi all, I've looked around the internet, pricing the upcoming Emma Peel (Avengers) mega-set, and found that 800.com has the best price - $119.99. My concern is this; 16 discs bundled in a box set could become a nightmare if the company is lousy with shipping methods. Has anybody ordered from...
