It is the episode where Lucy wins the privilege of calling a baseball game for a radio station. When she arrives, she encounters a sound board with the various sound-effects buttons and switches labelled with pieces of paper. But she accidentally turns on a fan, thus blowing all the labels off...
Shortly after the Blu Ray Trilogy came out, I found someone selling the 3 movies separately, so I grabbed the first (one of my all-time favorites!) I have now decided to get the Ultimate Collection, and so I no longer have need of this copy of "The Matrix." Here is a want list, though I may...
I have never seen an episode of this series, but I found a second season set real cheap, so I picked it up. Of course, I want to watch the pilot and first season before watching the second season, but I can't find the pilot anywhere except in the Definitive Gold Box Edition. Is the pilot...
Willing to pay up to $20 shipped for just the Portal disk (and the manual...or if there is only one manual for all the games, then a photocopy of the Portal section of the manual). Alternatively, I would be willing to trade a factory-sealed Virtua Fighter 5 (PS3) for Portal. If interested...
I am in Seattle for a couple of days, and I was thinking of checking out places that sell used DVD sets. Does anyone have any suggestions of places I should visit?
Awhile back, I read about a British series that involved two female protagonists solving crimes, and it was described as being something like "Olivia Benson meets Veronica Mars." Is anyone familiar with this series?
I watched both the "Dune" and "Children of Dune" miniseries quite awhile ago, and I remember a scene involving 3 characters (I can't even remember now who they were), where one character, in response to what another character has said, spits on the ground. The other character begins to take...
I picked up a used copy of this movie on Amazon Marketplace, and when it arrived, I found that he has totally different cover art (including the DTS banner across the top). And the bonus features do not include: - Deleted Scenes - "Tim McGraw: Off the Stage" - Player Cam Action Shots - "Real...
It appears that it is really hit & miss as to whether the coupon is included or not in the Desperate Housewives set. Has anyone received this set from DeepDiscountDVD yet, and if so, does it contain the $10 rebate coupon?
I realize that their website said the bonus disks were available "while supplies last", but I thought that ordering it on Aug. 21 would be early enough. Did any of you order from Best Buy after Aug. 21, and still receive the bonus disk?
I was just browsing at DVDSoon.com and saw that they had it listed for $11.98 (CAD) with a release date of July 19, 2005. I was surprised to see it because I hadn't heard anything about its being released, and I checked with a few major etailers and they don't have it listed. Does anyone have...
I have been watching this series on the "Space" network (in Canada), and I noticed some details from episode to episode that suggested the episodes are not being shown in the intended order. I checked with epguides.com and sure enough, the episode numbers and production numbers match only for...
I just bought this recorder, and while reading through the manual, I noticed that there was no mention of the capacity to jump to a specific spot in a movie (to a specific hour-minute-second). This is such a basic function that I just assumed every DVD player (and recorder) would have it. And...
I have come across some of her routines on video, but I'm not aware of any on DVD. I remember the first time I saw her on TV; her style was just so different from everyone else's! In that routine, her recurring gagline was something like "...and officer, that's why I shot my husband" but I...
I recently saw an episode of Voyager that I'd never seen before (I thought I had seen them all!) It was set several centuries in the future of Voyager's time, and it involved a museum that depicted the Voyager crew as vicious renegades. Does anyone know off-hand the name of the episode and the...
I have a DVD that freezes up at a certain spot when played in my DVD player, but it plays fine through that spot in the DVD-ROM drive of my computer (in fact, I have 2 DVDs for which this is the case). There does not appear to be anything on the surface of the DVD that would cause the problem...
I was doing a search for the best price on "ER - season 2" and found that most etailers were selling it for over $40, but BestPrices.com had it for under $30. And when I looked more closely, I noticed that while Amazon.com had the retail price at $59.99, BestPrices.com had the retail price at...
I remember years ago there being a thread giving detailed instructions on how to navigate the menus, but now I can't find that thread. Is it still around? Or if it isn't, could someone please just tell me the easiest way to get the movie started? Thanks!
For a course I am teaching, I am looking for an example of the ever-increasing practice of a character in one TV series making reference to a different TV series. I realize that "Gilmore Girls" is famous for its pop culture references, but the proportion of its pop culture references made to TV...
I was in Future Shop today, and noticed that all three Law and Order box sets released today have this sticker on them. But there are no details on the sticker; it simply directs you inside the box for details. Is this just a Canadian thing, or is this offer available in the U.S. as well? And...
My 80-year old dad has just gotten into DVD, but he's not that up on what's out there; so if he went to a rental place, he would probably only recognize a few titles out of the thousands available. So I was wondering if there is a magazine out there that comes out monthly, with reviews of new...
I remember, while watching my "24 - season 1" DVD set, that there were scenes not in the original series. There was nothing significant; at the time, I thought it was just extra material to get each episode up to a minimum length. More recently, I've been wondering: if the DVD producers don't...
Back when "24" was being promoted, a big deal was made about how it was done in "real time": each one-hour episode covering one hour of a single day. When I heard that, I immediately thought of "Murder One". When it was on, it was also promoted as being done in "real time", but it was each...
I have been looking for something like "Best of '80s music videos" DVDs, but I haven't been able to find a single one that has half decent selection, half decent audio quality and half decent video quality. Are there actually any in existence?
I have heard many good things about this series, but I've never seen a single episode. As far as sci-fi goes: - Star Wars: I really enjoy them (especially the original 3) - ST:TNG: I enjoy it - Voyager: I only enjoy it somewhat - DS9: I don't enjoy it at all - Andromeda: I enjoy it So...
I just happened to notice that Amazon.com has this DVD listed as being available Dec. 30. I've been waiting for this one forever! Amazon doesn't give any specifications; does anyone have any information on this release?
I am looking for a movie clip to show in a class. The clip needs to show someone who is so committed to fulfilling a task that they are willing to die trying. (If the clip had loved ones pleading with the person not to risk their life by going, that would be a bonus.) I have in mind someone...
When Universal released the pilots of Monk, L&O-SVU, and L&O-CI all on the same day, and then released full season sets of only L&O-SVU and L&O-CI, but not Monk, I thought Monk - season 1 was dead in the water. However, now that it has won an Emmy, how can Universal NOT release the season set?
Disks, box, and fold-out case are in excellent condition. Would consider trading.... ....STRAIGHT UP for: E.R. – season 1 Earth: Final Conflict - Destination Dark Earth: Final Conflict - Face the Horizon ....for any 2 of the following: 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea SE (1954) Born on...
