This has been in the news for a bit online, reddit and trolls have discovered Wallstreet and are shorting the shorters. Or something... I won't pretend to fully understand it, but it's a heck of a story that's playing out and I kind of love it...

Just saw this article, and the writer really nails a lot of my thoughts on the PS5/Xbox X machines coming out. Thought it may be of interest to some. https://www.ladbible.com/technology/gaming-8k-teraflops-and-loading-times-the-new-consoles-sound-so-boring-20200227 *I know, Ladbible for...

And I'm kinda freaking out since I'm not the most techy person. Mainly bought it to use as a plex box, get my library in one place. Any set-up tips/warnings I should be aware of? I'm expecting it to arrive next week. Watching vids and stuff on the net, it seems pretty straight forward, but you...

Hey folks! Any suggestions would be appreciated. I currently have a bunch of hard drives in docks plugged into a USB hub to watch movies with my PS4/PS3. It mostly works, but I've been thinking of upgrading to a proper NAS and consolidating some of those 1-2TB drives into a 6TB. At some point I...

I recently discovered the Letterboxd site for tacking the films you watch. I find it a nicer design for tracking than IMDB. I'm curious if anyone else is using it? I've been periodically tracking my "watched" films on spreadsheets but this one looks much nicer. IMDB is still better for movie...

I've been getting the retro bug the past year, and was thinking of picking up a Wii just to get the virtual consol games. I've come across RetroPi for the Raspberry that appear to play everything (roms) from Atari 2600 to PS1. Curious if anyone has used it. I've watched videos and it appears to...

Thought some might be interested in this since I see no postings. Here's the release, it's the only film directed by The Prisoner McGoohan. : ------------------------------ Etiquette Pictures is proud to announce that its third release will be the home video debut of acclaimed actor Patrick...

A big announcement from Vinegar Syndrome/ Etiquette Pictures shows them partnering with Xenon to release key genre titles. I couldn't be more excited, I'm sure some here in the forums might be interested. They've already confirmed that they, along with DOLEMITE will be getting new transfers...

Hey hey, I mentioned this one in another thread about Kickstarter and thought I'd post here since it's in relation to streaming. Vinegar Syndrome, one of the leading companies restoring exploitation films are getting into the streaming game and are having an indiegogo campaign to speed up the...

Hey there! So, my ears are going itchy from using in-ear buds on my commute too and from work (about an hour each way). So I'm thinking of getting some on-ear phones. I don't want over-ear, mainly because I want to still be able to hear a bit of my surroundings so I don't get killed and they...

Sorry if this is inappropriate Mr. Harris, I'm simply a fan of movies and your work. I've been watching KINO's release "Thomas Edison: The Invention of the Movies" and last night came across a peculiar bit of film damage. Having read your numerous posts on the restoration of film and enjoyed...

I've been going through this set the past week and highly recommend it. One of the best sets I've seen. The cartoons look great, the commentaries are informative and some of the cartoons are flat out amazing. This set deserves to be on store shelves and in the hands of every cartoon collector...

I don't see a thread on this, but I thought I'd ask. Anyone in the states using this? I just got a Sony notice saying that it launches today here in Canada, and it sounds too good to be true. For $8 a month you get unlimited streamed movies and tv? It kills the Sony video store of paying a...

Hey music fans! I thought I'd be bold and post a link here. I've started a listening project, listening to all 1001 Albums You Must Hear Before You Die, as published in the 2005 edition. This is a follow up to a project I did a few years ago where I listened to all 500 of Rolling Stone...

Anyone have any suggestions on this? The installed MP3 player is frankly rubbish. I like listening to my music based on albums, not random songs, and have my albums in nicely labeled folders. This worked great on my old phone and with WINAMP on my PC, since I could chose a folder as a...

Here it is, the official thread for this years challenge! Come one, come all and celebrate the 10th horrid year of this terrible challenge! If you've never attempted the challenge, now is the time to dip your toes into the (acid) pool of celluloid atrocity known as the Scary Movie Challenge...

Just wondering if anyone's interested in going through this again since Oct 1st is just a week away. I'd be willing to "host"/ start up the thread despite once again coming in 2nd place last year and not really deserving of the "honour." ;) Feed back is welcome, I was thinking the same rules...

Hey, On XP, you can assigne a thumbnail to be displayed on the folder icons, anyway to do this with Vista? I can't seem to get rid of the flipped open folder look with a partial thumbnail. My reason is when I rip CD's to MP3, they look nicer with the full album art displayed instead of the...

Vague thread titles like this one has. You know, you click on it to see what's up, then you find it has little or nothing of any interest to you personally and you feel like you just wasted minutes you could be doing something else? Yup, I sure hate that and wish people would have the actual...

I know this is going to sound really sad and pathetic, but I've been saving movies for months for a repeat challenge like we did last year. We're 3 days from Oct 1st, and I've seen no word. Is anyone organizing this? Now, I would do it myself, but I'm totally crap at keeping track of this...

I have found nothing at most of my usual haunts, but I though I'd give the audio experts at the HTF a shot at this. I am looking to buy a CD player, as I have found, that CDs tend to sound way better on a CD player than on a DVD player. What I am looking for is a CD player that either is MP3...

Anyone pick up the individual releases? I couldn't find any reviews. this is one of the few shows I actually held of on buying, but the pricing on the mega set is decent enouhg to make me bite. Just wondering if these are the original shows as aired on CBC, or if they got any cuts in them. If...

Found this on "JAM News" This is now my most anticipated film of next year! Gondry is a visual genius, add to that the manic energy of Jack Black, and this can not fail!

I picked up the LG HDD/DVDR with a 250g hard drive, model # lrh-539 and discovered that it has periodic problems woth keeping the audio in sync with the video when recording to the HDD from a VHS source. It seems to be random, as if I re-record the program that goes put of sync, it well record...

I'm curious, this just hit the shelves in Canada, by Aliance. The Uncut and Uncensored cover is different than the US release (missing grey band with the smiling Kevin Smith giving the thumbs up). It lists a running time of 1hr07mins and is rated 18+. Is this the same running time as the US...

Anyone know anythiong about this? I saw this on amazon.ca, but not on amazon.com so it might be a Canadian release, if so, I hope it is actualy a complete version on the Comedy Network run, so I can toss my tapes!:emoji_thumbsup:

It looks like a repack of 3 Gordon Lau "Master Killer" films. Anyone have an opinion on the series, and Tai Seng's handling of them? I've never seen them, but gordon looked pretty great in the Kill Bill films, and the price is right (about $20 cdn). Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

Anyone thinking of getting these? I'm excited for the remastered "Funhouse" as the current bargain bin version leaves alot to be desired in the sonic department. Not as much of a fan of "the Stooges" as the song "We Will Fall" grinds the whole album to a halt that it never recovers from, but...

Has anyone heard about this? It appears to be a re-release of the previous mega collection, with 2 bonus discs. According to AMazon.ca, the one bonus disc is the "Life At The Hollywood Bowl", I have no idea what the second disc would be, unless the "LATHB" was a 2 disc set. does anyone know...

Wondering if anyone is receiving there orders from DVDSOON.COM? I have a bunch of pre-orders that have yet to be shipped, some from July! I got an email back from them saying it was slow due to it being summertime and suppliers being slow at this time of year, which sounds like horseshit to me...
