There's a used copy on hold (for me if I choose to take it) at a local store for $60. Now, I already own 1 and 2, so the decision to rebuy the OOP 3 disk set is even more painful. So, I'm curious about a few things. 1) Is the third "extras" disk worth it? Are the features insightful, fun...

Hello all. Here's the scenario. Recently, my five disk player croaked due to a "mecha error". I've since purchased another player and instead of going optical (as before), I went coax for digital surround. I did have a problem with this arrangement. The coaxial connection produced no sound...

Hey all. I received a fairly good deal by picking up a pair of Titans for $150 out of the box. They have served their purpose well by pulling surround detail. However, I'm approaching the end of the free upgrade period over at my dealer, and I can't stop thinking that I should take the step...

Watched Soderberg's (spelling) Solaris last night. I enjoyed the plot and concept of the story, but I had some problems with a few other points. For instance, the rough cutting towards the end of the film made it more difficult to follow than I would have liked. The pacing was a bit off...

I'm sitting around on Sunday afternoon with Lost World: JP II playing in the background and a question comes to mind. What films have people added to their DVD collections solely for home theater enjoyment, based on audio/video presentation, instead of for film content quality (story, acting...

Hey all. This thread comes up from time to time on DVDtalk and usually draws quite a gathering. Haven't seen it in awhile, so I figure to start one up on HTF. Who's knows, consider it an experiment to see how fast the thread will end up on page 2 ... Here are the rules. First and...

Evening all. For Christmas, we at work have a list of items to buy as gifts and essentials for a down on their luck, family. I chose to go for the DVD purchase, thinking that with a little research and input from all you pros out there in HT land, I might be able to get the perfect movie for...

First of all .. sorry to have posted this with the "software" section on htforum. 'HT Construction & Interior' would probably be more appropriate, however that section seems geared more towards DYI and environmental topics; not completely associated with my question. So, admin, feel free to move...

Any thoughts/experiences out there on quality region free players? Willing to entertain up to $300 and looking for: 1) progressive scan 2) pal to ntsc (good to better converter) 3) VCD/MP3 capabilities. (mp3 isn't important, just desirable. however, VCD is a must) And help is...

Checked out the last one of these posts and I'm not sure I get the "poll" association or the subsequent arguments relating to the matter. So, I'm threading this little subject for what it's worth. Fun and simple, no? Titles this week, purchased, to be purchased or in the mail: Hero...
