I'm getting DSL from SBC. They advertise speed "up to" 1.5 MB, but I only get half of that (768 kbps). I wish it were faster, but there's nothing I could do about it.
What's wrong with the smell of chocolate? As for me, I only rented the DVD from Netflix and the rented copy didn't smell like anything. I don't know if I'll buy it or not, because I didn't like the movie AT ALL, but I did enjoy the songs quite a bit.
I agree with you there, but think of all the problems this would cause. Already, by the time the last person standing in line gets into the store, they have already sold out of whatever it is that the last person was looking for. Hell, they sell it out everything even before the people in the...
Like Thomas T, I too know every single movie that I own, even though I have a collection of 3,000 DVDs. Never have I ever bought the same title twice by accident unless I actually wanted a different version. For example, I have "SAW (Unrated Cut)" but went out and bought "Saw (Theatrical...
If it were true that opening stores at 5 am are turning off a lot of shoppers, then there wouldn't be lines, a mile-long just to get into these stores. I think a lot of people enjoy getting their shopping done as early as possible so that they can have the rest of the day to enjoy the things...
Dave, I could be wrong but I believe that 1 PRD005233 DVD : FRIDAY THE 13TH PARTS 1-8 (5D) $ 49.69 was the one that was not discounted in your order. The prices you posted already have had the discount applied to them, correct? Well, I seem to recall that the Friday The 13th boxed-set was $49.69...
This is terrible advice. I went to my local Walmart at 7 am, looking for the $3 DVDs, when to my horror, discovered that almost every single DVD that was priced at $3 was completely gone. I was gonna buy "8 Mile," "All The Right Moves," "Spy Game" and "Sleepers" and all I found was...
You know, many people will argue with you about this release, but I am in agreement with you on the way that this DVD looks. Bjoern is always talking about how "flawless" and how detailed and unfiltered this DVD is, but the last time I watched my Platinum Series version, it didn't look all that...
I'm not exactly sure I understand what this means. First of all, what do you consider to be a "high end" setup? Next, what kind of flaw are we talking about here? What happens? Does the flaw only appear on progressive displays (like a front projector) or does it also happen with 1080i HDTV...
Thank you Holadem. How much do anamorphic lens cost? Are there different kinds? Are some better than others? Will all anamorphic lens fit all projectors? When you say "external scaler," do you mean something like a computer equipped with a great video card?
I don't think I'd be interested in the Constant Area method. I have a question. You stated that people use software to do the Constant Height method. When you use software (let's say for instance, I were to use ZOOMPLAYER) would I be loosing resolution with smaller aspect ratios (like 4:3)...
This is absolutely absurd! How dare they actually remove actual scenes from the episodes! Columbia is the worst studio of *ALL TIME!* :thumbsdown: :thumbsdown: :thumbsdown: :thumbsdown: :thumbsdown: :thumbsdown: :thumbsdown: :thumbsdown: :thumbsdown: :thumbsdown: :thumbsdown: :thumbsdown...
I'd like an answer to Steve's question as well. I'd also like to know if it's possible to turn *ANY* projector out there, into a 2.35:1 projector, so that all movies are the same height and the only thing that changes, would be the width of the screen as movies get more and more narrow.
I only have 1,600 DVDs so far. Only 200 of them are still sealed. I've been trying to watch them, but the pile of sealed DVDs keeps going up the more I keep buying discs. A lot of the sealed ones are recent purchases; for example: The massive order I received from DeepDiscount today. I bought...
Tony, In "Ken Park" the guy who's living with his grandparents goes to his room to masturbate to the sound of a woman's grunting, while she's playing tennis. The sound of her grunts get louder and louder as he gets closer to climax.
I hope I wasn't too explicit. ;)
Even more than I would like to own a restored, anamorphic version of this on DVD, I would much rather it be released on Blu-Ray right now! I'd pay $100 for an HD version of it!
I think that most celebrities are just too busy doing whatever it is they have to do, or even just going out and having fun with their friends/family that they don't really have time to watch DVDs. I've seen a lot of episodes of MTV's "Cribs" and the celebs that do collect DVDs usually don't...
The first row of seats 13' away from the screen is just about perfect for a screen of that size. Why put the 2nd row of seats so far back though? 19' away from that screen will make it look very small. Nobody is going to want to sit in the back row, being that it's going to be way too far away...
That's wrong. There isn't a plasma screen that is not susceptible to burn-in. Of course calibration can help slightly, but the fact of the matter is, it will get burn-in eventually no matter what. It's inevitable. The only way it won't get burn-in, is if you stretch fullscreen to wide and...
The thing is, that you're going to need all that gas anyway. Every drop of gas you put (even if it's more than you need) will eventually get used up. Fill it up, no matter how expensive it may seem. That way, you only have to go once in a great while. Also, that way you find find yourself in...
I have to agree with Felix Martinez on this one. The DVDs (parts 1 & 2) are both flawless DVDs with absolutely nothing to complain about. Have you watched it in HD yet? I saw Toy Story 1 on ABC 720p HD. Unfortunately, it was not a true 720p transfer. It was just an upconvert from the...
Amen! Why on earth doesn't everyone fill up their cars? I have always filled my car up, every single time, so that I don't have to keep going to the station over and over. I have a cousin who always puts as much gas as needed, to go somewhere. For example, if she wants to go to a certain...
Back when I first started buying/collecting DVDs, I bought a lot of the original versions of certain movies that I liked. Of course, those were then released in better editions and I would buy those as well. It eventually got so bad that I felt like the only DVDs I was buying any more, were pure...
