    Osbournes Season 1 Uncensored - gives you choice of censored/uncensored soundtrack

    Nice. Nothing was funnier than watching Mallrat's on the USA network (I think, or maybe it was TNN or something) a couple of weeks ago. Jay's voice dubbed over %90 of the time by someone else.. heheh.. funny stuff.

    Waiting For Guffman. We Do Not Understand Why this Movie was Well Regarded.

    I thought WFG was terribly unfunny as well. I bought it because of recomendations, and having enjoyed other "mockumentary" style movies. I just didn't "get it". Bored me to tears, and I turned it off after about 40 minutes as well :) Of course, Office Space on the other hand is one of my...

    Touchstone redesigns "Signs" cover. Why?

    I thought it was cool that the Donnie Darko DVD included a sheet inside that fit perfectly over the from cover that basically was the original movie poster. More DVD's should do this. Maybe they do and I just don't have the right ones :) Aaron

    Anamorphic might be the wrong choice. In this thread, we discuss why.

    "I believe that as long as the 4:3 set has an anamorphic squeeze function, the resolution would be the same as the widescreen set." Interesting. Well, then I think I see what Javier was getting at. If I go HD, I will go 4:3 then. Bigger 4:3 immage, same sized 16:9 immage for the same...

    Anamorphic might be the wrong choice. In this thread, we discuss why.

    I have a question.. call me "the noob". So you have 2 TV's. One is a 16:9 TV.. the other is a 4:3 TV. Both are High Definition sets. Both are the same width, but the 4:3 TV is obviously taller. Now, you have an anamorphic widescreen DVD who's AR is approximately 16:9. It fills the 16:9 TV...

    Would (some)people like letterboxing if it was done differently? done

    I think it would actually exaggerate to a pan-and-scan fan just how much screen is being taken up by the black bars. And I always wondered why players don't allow you to move the player-generated subtitles... I can't stand when they are in the black area (I have a 4:3 TV) because it forces me...

    THX version of Fight Club

    "Actually, that's the store not knowing any better " I doubt that, unless just about every major retail outlet in my area doesn't know anybetter. I've seen the DVD for $15 or under at several stores. Fred Meyer, Walmart, Best Buy, etc. Aaron

    THX version of Fight Club

    I bought the 2 disc set on sale for 14.99 at Fred Meyer about 2 months ago. Strange practice: Announce a featureless re-release of a product, then throw the usually $20+ dollar release down a bunch. I'd wanted to buy Fight Club for a long time, but every time I looked at it the DVD was...

    HTF REVIEW: "Movie Night" - UPDATED FEATURES SEE PAGE 2 (with screenshots)

    I have a feeling that the warning was pointed almost directly at me :) I apologize if anyone was offended, but I surely didn't mean any offense. It was meant to be humorous, and I truly do smile at the fact that you all like this type of product. It is certainly up to the moderators of this...

    HTF REVIEW: "Movie Night" - UPDATED FEATURES SEE PAGE 2 (with screenshots)

    Pointless, absurd, geeky. That's probably how I would begin MY review of a product like this :) But having said that, I can't help but smile seeing your excitement for this product. I'm happy to know that this DVD fulfills your dreams. But, I still can't help but think how not practical this...

    Signs (2002)

    DonC: About the microphones. That is most likely not the fault of the movie itself, but the theater playing the movie. I'm no technical expert on the subject, but often times a theater will set up a movie for the wrong aspect ration. Basically those parts with the microphones you saw were...

    Seattle = WideScreen City. What about your city?

    I've been there (once), didn't notice a Walmart :) Aaron

    Seattle = WideScreen City. What about your city?

    One Note: There aren't very many Walmarts in this area either. In fact, I don't know where ANY Walmarts are, I've heard they exist in the Seattle area, but I KNOW for a fact there isn't a Walmart in existence with a Seattle address. That could tell you something about the area as well. Aaron

    Seattle = WideScreen City. What about your city?

    OK, I live in Seattle, and I frequent Best Buy at Northgate, Best Buy/Circuit City in Federal Way, and even Best Buy/Circuit City way up North in Lynwood (near Alderwood Mall). I've noticed that with any big release that has both a WideScreen and FullScreen release that the WS releases are...

    Signs (2002)

    Point taken. Maybe "proved" wasn't the right word. My point still stands tho. Despite the fact that this movie was trying to "preach" the other side of the coin, it only re-itterated in my mind the reasons why I don't have "faith." And I do think that this movie was trying to point out 2...

    Signs (2002)

    Since Atheism was mentioned, I'm going to chime in again :) I am an Athiest. And this movie only re-iterates why I am an Athiest, it points out the flawed logic of Faith exactly. Relying on magical mysterious events that all come together to save people to prove the existence of a God, or more...

    Signs (2002)

    My thoughts: -I can't stand "preachy movies." -The Sci-fi logic of this film is as FLAWED as it's religious message. -This film lacked any coherence to a believable story. -I HATED Unbreakable, thought 6th sense was merely.. OK -BUT.. I was very entertained for some reason :) Not sure...

    Ok, I just saw Requiem for a Dream and..

    I have watched this movie several times in the year and a hald since I purchased it sight unseen. Every time I am no less disturbed, but I am always more impressed with this film. I love resurected threads :)

    Eminem oscar calliber actor?

    "Will Smith dont have to cuss in raps to sell records, well I do so fuck him and fuck you too." Will Smith BTW happens to be a rapper who recieved an Acedemy Award nomination recently I believe. Eminem is talented, he has the "flow" that every rapper wished they had and it comes to him...

    Will you edit your own movies?

    John (about Pan and Scanning): "Right, which means that the studio has accepted that those changes were authorized or approved in some way by the filmmakers." John: "Absolutely not. Regardless of whether the original is available for purchase or not, the P&S version is not the correct version...

    Will you edit your own movies?

    "You're talking apples and oranges here." I was refering to your comment about Pan&Scan... is it not the studios that do this? "Doing it on your own just because you don't like a scene is nothing more than second-guessing the filmmakers and the unauthorized editing of someone else's work...

    Will you edit your own movies?

    "On the former, I disagree. The content is still there and you are given the choice to skip over it if you wish. You are not modifying the work itself. The latter, however, most certainly is re-eiting and again is second-guessing the filmmakers. " What is the difference between skipping a...

    X-Men Digital VHS Review At DVDfile

    I would like to point out that nobody is really discussing this particular release (well, maybe 1 or 2 posts)... So what is the difference betweeen the anti-HDVHS and the pro-HDVHS posters on this thread? Absolutely nothing, you are all off topic...

    Fight Club Discontinued - 9/11 sensitivity?

    I am not posting this as news of Fight Club being discontinued or to create a duplicate thread about this subject. I only want to see others views on the possibility of this DVD being discontinued for reasons having to do with the 9/11 tragedy. I did a search and could not find a similar thread...
