I have to assume this is subtle humour since no one could be this deluded: "Am I the only one who thinks the punishment doesn't fit the crime here? Come on, she killed a cheating husband, how many time has that happened in history? She is not a murderer that needs to be isolated! I'm...

They also now support P&S discs so screw them.

A nice, laid-back slash film. Not quite on the level of "Friday the 13th" but enough people were killed in enough ways to qualify. BTW, I thought Dina Meyer (for the 3 minutes she lived) look like Sharon Stone!

Check out the cheap DVD "Kill Cruise" if you want to see Hurley without clothing. I think the movie was done around 12 years ago.

I rent all the time. There are few movies I'd want to watch over again and so I buy about 4 discs a month.

How about simply bringing lawsuits against movie companies that intentionally put out bad movies? You could nail them on acting, script quality, cheap, unconvicing special effects; A whole range of things. Imagine how much money we've all wasted going to bad movies that we didn't know...

The engineering spec is for full power from one channel and 1/8th from the rest. According to Sony.

Rather than buy a newer model, you might consider something used. If you check the trade in sections of specialty electronics stores (as opposed to Future Shop,etc) you might find something at a considerably lower price than new. Most people keep their equipment in good condition who deal...

So, according to Sound and Vision and Sony, the power rating on this receiver is only something like 120watts, then six channels of around 20 watts each. This is no surprise and I think other mfgs' should come out and admit their receivers only produce a fraction of their so called WPC when...

It's not the continuous power needs that is the problem. Most of the time, that does not go very high. What does are transients that demand huge power increases immediately. This is where most receivers fall flat compared to separate power amps. And how can they not? We aren't likely to put...

Try Bracks. They offered me the best price I'd seen on a Rotel 1066 and they carry the Anthem.

Why not just avoid it and look for an ad that you can tell is legitimate? Besides, in the scheme of things, who buys many Japanese speakers anyway when there are so many excellent American and Canadian brands?

I've had a 35" RCA for about 7 years, no problems. A neighbour has the same one (10 years) no problems. Unless someone has some actual statistics about RCA reliability, it's simply a case of a buyer who got a raw deal telling from between 11-26 other people about it, because that's what...

The capacity for humans to extrapolate the extroidinary from the ordinary is momumental. Giant squids become huge, ship-eating sea monsters, gorillas were considered by the Romans to be a new species of man. When you find the actual skeleton and date it to the last 20 years, then maybe...

First, I hear about a flaw in their televisions they can't correct because it would mean incorporating technology from a non-Sony company. Then, no appearance of the TA-E10ES that was to replace the old TA-E9000ES. Now, the 4ES receiver seems to be a major cost cutting effort compared to the...

More margins in "computer speakers" that cost $0.50.ea to mfg. than there is in upgrades to high end equipment. Americans should learn to look at alternatives to mass market junk like Klipsch (cheezy metal "coloured" polypro drivers that they use) when it comes to speakers at least. As far...

ratings: Jason X 1 star, Orange country 3? Uh huh.

It may make your life more interesting to believe in things like Big Foot, Lock Ness, UFOs, Rods, Sasquatch, ghosts, witches, voodoo, etc, etc, but that doesn't mean you dispense with standard scientific methods used to PROVE something. If it does, you'd have felt at home with the peasants of...

"MSNBC searched and found out that the other 5,000 shoplifters (a couple of which stole MORE valuable merchandise) were all offered misdemeanor plea bargains. Every single one. Ms. Ryder was only offered a felony. Why? You know why." Oh boo hoo! For ONCE a starlet is handed a stiff sentence...

I sometimes sit through them to see who did the music or if they were made in a certain area, just in case they don't identify the city, etc. Also, to see if they list bit-parters I think I recognize but who don't get a listing at the front of a movie.

WSR's latest issue has them reviewing some kind of pseudo-porno (Playboy? Not sure) D-VHS just to try to make it look like something is being released. This says to me that the format will be more of oddball than laserdisc was. Frankly, I'm content to wait for HD-DVD.

Anyone who pays MSRP price on a product must like to waste money. I am amazed a place like Crutchfield can actually survive. There is one example of them in Toronto where I live, it's called Bay Bloor Radio but it sells mostly to wealthier inner city people who need them to come and install...

All so their pathetic attempt to sell VOD in New York might work. Liebenfarb is a clown. http://www.videobusiness.com/article...=4254&catID=30

The DVD is garbage. The print they used for it was thin and damaged, suffering from colour fade in the extreme. The DVD is riddled with compression artifacts and (you are right) the sound is terrible, distorting and clipping all the time. The LD was better, except it was in P&S. Warner...

That list is likely to change fast. If "Spiderman" did $170 million in it's first three days of sale (that's about 8.5 million DVDs at $20/ea) then it is probably past many of those on the list I guess.

You can only go by kill ratios when judging fighters and there is nothing out there that matches an F-15.

Bay Bloor Radio is a @$!!# ripoff shop. They have good inventory, but their pricing is predatory. Try Audio Excellence on Bayview ave just north of Hwy 7 or American Sound on Yonge St. north of Hwy 7 or Brack's on Yonge St. just south of Hwy 7 on the West side of Yonge St. Bracks is also...

Entertainment Weekly, Rue Morgue (better than Fangoria, which I also read), Empire (sometimes), Premiere (sometimes).

Maybe because the subject is teenaged? Notice how movies (sometimes) and television (almost always) soft-filters people once they hit 25 years of age or older? I hate that blurry crap.

From: alt.video.dvd: I wrote Blockbuster recently, complaining about Insomnia being available from Blockbuster only in FS. Here is their response. I guess I will be going to Hollywood Video from now on. ---------------------------------------------------------- Thank you for your...
