    It’s a 4k Digital Code Christmas!

    Looks like the 4k issues of A Christmas Story, Elf, Christmas Vacation and three Rankin-Bass Christmas Classics will all include Digital Codes with the 4k discs.

    General Discussion Why Some Classic Shows Are Not Available For Streaming

    Outside of a few isolated episodes here and there, I wonder why “Combat!” has never been picked up by the streaming services. Robert Altman directed quite a few episodes, and the guest artist list features the likes of Robert Duvall, Lee Marvin, Richard Basehart and many other stars. With Vic...

    UHD Review A Few Words About A few words about...™ - The Great Escape -- in 4k UHD

    I just received the Kino 4k UHD which I bought thru amazon. My copy did not have a slipcase, which I know exists as I’ve seen it in online reviews. The slipcase is pictured at amazon. Does anyone know why or how this happens? Any chance I was resold a copy that got returned minus its slipcase?

    Unable to enable ARC between Hisense & Yamaha

    I like ARC as it allows me to play audio thru my Roku soundbar when I am viewing discs played thru my X-Box.

    UHD Review A Few Words About A few words about...™ The Guns of Navarone (Updated 11/8/23) -- in 4k UHD

    I found the 4k disc to be a noticeable and positive improvement over the 1080p BluRay. Would recommend purchase.

    How do you explain your love of physical media in an era of streaming?

    Many of the physical disc movies I own also show up on the streaming services, or are accessible thru Movies Anywhere and Vudu due to my redeeming the digital codes. When at home, I endeavor to play the discs for these titles because my internet carrier (Cox) will ding me if I exceed my monthly...

    Yamaha amp goes into protection mode

    Check your wired connections to your speakers and amp. You may have a + and - wire hitting each other. That happened to me on my center speaker and caused my Yamaha amp to shut down. Securing the wires better fixed it. Happened when I had moved the speaker to dust. Sheesh.

    2021 Universal disc player

    I am also in the market for a player that will play 4k UHD movies and SACD audio discs. I was looking at the Sony 700 and 800 model lines, but the interwebs are rife with articles and videos documenting that these players freeze when playing 4k discs. They also freeze up during streaming...

    International THE ALAMO (John Wayne's extended cut)

    I find that the added footage in the scene where the Alamo defenders discuss their belief or non-belief in god is much more balanced in the extended version than in the cut version, which basically endorses the Xian point of view.

    UHD Review A Few Words About A few words about…™ The Ten Commandments (1956) - in 4k UHD Blu-ray

    Considering that the whole “Jews were enslaved in Egypt and built the pyramids as slaves” is an outright myth (ask any Egyptologist/Archeologist), I don’t know if outrage over not casting Jews as the thousands of extras is an issue. I mean, the guy playing Moses wasn’t a Jew. 🤔😱 BTW - I noticed...

    A Few Words About A few words about...™ The Great Escape (Criterion) - in Blu-ray

    I watched the new Criterion version last night. I greatly prefer it to the 2013 BluRay. Yes, I like the grain. The whole picture is clear, clean and natural to my way of looking, and the mono ST is fine. Worth the $30.

    A Few Words About A few words about...™ The Great Escape (Criterion) - in Blu-ray

    I’ve got this on preorder. Hoping it’s an improvement over the BluRay (which I reviewed unfavorably upon its 2013 release (https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/review/B000IZ0WQ4/R1QJS65U7ZXESI/ref=cm_cr_dp_mb_rvw_3?ie=UTF8&cursor=3)
