    Man, what time did you place your order? I thought I got in there rather quickly. 10/30/2005 5:15:48 AM But apparantly I was soundly beaten.

    HDMI -- Not being practical?

    That's an issue I've been dealing with too. My dvd player has a HDMI out which I've got going to the tv for image quality but I'm running the soung through the receiver for surround sound. This has resulted in much tweaking in my dvd players settings to get the sound and image to match up. My tv...

    Carnivale (Season 2)...

    I'm of the mind that it was Scudder who healed Ben, but who can be sure? I also thought he had marked up his face fairly recently as he had the crazy hair by then and normal hair when Ben tried to take himself out of the picture. Of course maybe it was the Scudder inside each of us that...

    Carnivale (Season 2)...

    Didn't Scudder wipe out pretty much the entire town of Babylon? The way I figure it he got caught in the mine collapse and use the life of pretty much everyone else to help him get out of the cave-in. I see your point about Jonsey though.

    Carnivale (Season 2)...

    Here's the thing, Sofie is not special in this regard. Scudder was ostensibly the Evil Avatar and brought Ruthie back from death as well as Ben in season one. Healing's nothing new for these guys on either side of the coin. Also just cause Sofie's evil doesn't mean she's bad. Scudder fought...

    Carnivale (Season 2)...

    well....damn Poor F'n Jonsey I was really counting on Ben to use Brother Stroud and bring him back, guess not. Course maybe he'll turn into the Kenny of Carnivale. damn

    Ok, just got my PB1-ISD, got a question.

    It's Cool....:D Haven't hooked it up yet, but I've noticed that an academic understanding of what 18x20x21 looks like is somewhat different than actually experiencing an object of those dimensions in real life. Which brings me to my question: The port on the side of the sub is larger...

    Fletch Won

    One of the other names that Kevin was bandying around was Brad Pitt. And honestly, if Smith can get him, Pitt would probably be the best choice (well, on par with Lee). He fits the chatacter (Fletch being blond and rather laid back in the books). I can easily see him as the character described...

    HBO's "Carnivale" (SPOILERS!)

    Just a warning for those that are planning to tune in tomorrow and then complain about how slow the show is progressing. In interviews before the show started (and I believe, in the "making of" special) Ron Moore stated that nothing really happens until episode 8. Now it is entirely possible...

    Who remembers these cartoons that used to be shown on Nickelodeon?

    HBO's "Carnivale" (SPOILERS!)

    yup, John Savage (the guy from Dark Angel) does SEEM to be Ben's father. It's stranger for me though, I have issues seeing little country Claude from Hair picking up a gun and tromping through WWI foxholes.

    HBO's "Carnivale" (SPOILERS!)

    I have to say that I completely agree with Dwight's view of the aftermath. It certainly seemed to me that the "dead zone" followed the girl as she ran towards the house also I (and, as it seems, everybody else) am getting the hint that the preacher might be on the side of evil but I don't...

    Issue with my Vega and DVD Player, please help.

    Say for example the opening to Toy Story 2 the starscape is a flicker fest. Also much of Sum of all Fears (the scenes which take place in the Russian Prez's bedroom). Just ablout any scene thats very dark causes the screen to go out.

    Issue with my Vega and DVD Player, please help.

    Currently, whenever the screen changes to a picture that is 75% or more black the signal gets lost and the picture changes to a black screen with "SAT " in the upper corner (that's what displays there when there's no input). I've tried the DVD player in other TVs and had no problem with it then...

    I guess I've just been beaten down by the system. I automatically assumed the price woulf be about 60-70 bucks. Hell, I paid more for Band of Brothers and that was only 10 episodes (albiet in nifty packaging).

    Babylon 5 newbies? (Richard Biggs - RIP)

    The only problem with the Midwinter site is that no other show has a info site that good. When I started checking out BtVS (armed with only a faint knowledge that there was some sort of arc and liking the movie) I was disappointed to discover that even the really good sites weren't up to that...

    Babylon 5 newbies? (Richard Biggs - RIP)

    For fans of "Day of the Dead" and of course jusr regular B5 fans I highly recommend the "Day of the Dead: Babylon 5 Script" whis is available from DreamHaven Books it's only 5 bucks and the one I got was signed "Beep Beep". May want to order by phone to make sure but in my experience everything...

    Babylon 5 newbies? (Richard Biggs - RIP)

    That's part of what's good about the show even though you think the "secret of the vorlons" has been revealed there's actually much more to it and let it be know that your issues with Sebastian have come up before. I offer This link as the only defense. BTW this Midwinter site is the next best...

    Miracles - 2/03/03

    *cough*Angel Heart *cough also the quote "Darkness is it's own thing" seems to imply an actual Satan who's taking a role in all this. When bad things happen they're on purpose and his doing. Am I correct in assuming that Satan sent Paul to meet the kid in the first ep to Take him out of...

    Firefly 12/06/02

    Great Show, easially one of the best to have come along in a while. BTW if you are interested in the chinese that they are speaking, just watch the show with captions on, not only will you pick up a bit more about what they are saying but they have the actual chinese words as well not just ""...

    John Doe 9/27/02

    Don't forget that he was able to speak Vietnamese and the other Asian Language (in the pilot) just by hearing it, there's no reason why he couldn't be speaking English the exact same way. He could be from anywhere. My only issue is that what kind of ultra secret foreign intelligence operation...

    Firefly Episode 2: NO WIDESCREEN!

    You think the loss of widescreen is bad, check out the last five minutes again. There's sound for the ships in space in the preview for next weeks episode. Here's hoping it was just put in for the ad and won't really be there. Sadly, I can imagine some network tool(soon to be patented as...
