    *** Official CHARLIE AND THE CHOCOLATE FACTORY Review Thread

    This movie was insulting. And by that I mean that I felt like my intelligence was being b*tch-slapped as I watched it. I love the original, and as I got older and watched it as a teen and then adult, I picked up on so much more that was in the film (Gene Wilder's quips still occupy a fairly...

    Late Late Show with Craig Ferguson?

    I love it when he calls the audience his "cheeky wee monkeys" and than plays a sound effect of a bull-whip.

    The Big Lebowski: CE - 10.18.05

    Thats a do-able price for the gift-set. Brandt can't watch though, or else he has to pay a 100.

    Aspect ratio seldom as expected

    Speaking personally, when I went into DVD Profiler and checked my list (see sig), 2.35:1 narrowly beat out 1.85:1 as the dominant ratio. I have quite a large variety of DVDs too, so I'de wager that most other HTFers have about the same ratio.

    Do actors/actresses like to watch their movies?

    I'de expect that all actor's have some curiosity for how some little project that they dedicated a portion of their life to turned out. Except for some character/overacters *cough* Pacino *cough*, who might forget that they were ever in a different film from others ("was I angry? did I have gun...

    Ticket sales down 20%...Nothing worth seeing?

    The are nothing but remakes and re-hashes of worn plots in the theaters right now. I'de love to go "experience" a movie, but so far only Star Wars seems to be the only good reason for going!

    Name This Movie [Very Graphic / Decapitation / Gore]

    That is the most terrible thing I have seen as of late. No wonder the average IQ of an ICP fan is somewhere in the negatives...:)

    Blade Trinity Review?

    Blade Trinity starts out pretty hot, and then loses steam gradually until the end. Here are some of the gripes that I had... Using the Zoey character as the plot device to the ending. Whose idea was it to throw in the blind chick and the King of Queens guy??? TOTALLY unneccessary. It was just...

    DTE:ES and DD EX

    A better test would be a DVD with both ES and EX mixes, as it might be a better way to compare. I think Blade Trinity has both, I know Blade II does.

    Calibrating My Television ...?

    Owning a 27" CRT presently, I'm personally waiting until I can afford a nice big set before contracting an ISF calibrator. Until then, I'll cope with the mediocrity of my "stock" tube!

    Anyone talking about the Sony PSP UMD Movie Discs?

    The Sony PSP screen is not 4:3, it's 1.78:1. It is 4.3" diagonal though.

    Question re: Radio Shack SPL

    One is analog, one is digital. Quite a few people prefer analog because of it's fluidity when scaling up/down and it's lower cost. Both will do fine for HT calibration.

    You might have seen this idiocy

    I bought one of these chips and let me tell you folks: NIGHT AND DAY! The sound on my Bose 3-2-1 system was so much FULLER and RICHER, with CLARITY and SMOOTHNESS. Paired with my Monster THX certified cables (what a difference already!) and the price that they are selling, its a veritable...

    Funny Bose story

    Sadly, in most cases, the employees may not know much about anything that they sell. They often confuse company propaganda with knowledge.
