    I'm having to upgrade my power supply from 325w to 700w. The sound card I added, along with the video card I have, are too much for that stock psu. So I'm easing off on testing that z-5500. The few times I tried it out were spectacular. Glad I spent the money. The subwoofer is particularly...

    I picked up several from that $3 bin: We're No Angels, Stepford Wives, and There will be blood. Btw, watched Master & Commander not long ago and was floored by it. Excellent film. I just bought a new sound system for my PC, a z-5500. I'm thinking overkill, but I'll try some things out on it.

    Mine has the bin and a shelf with some of the choice titles (like Short Circuit, hee hee). I picked up Panic in the Year Zero/Last Man on Earth MGM set last week for a fiver. That was the only one they had and just that one copy that I picked up. If there are more they are underneath all...

    I wish I had a decent sound system. I have a couple of PC satellite speakers and a sub. It sounds surprisingly good but I need a proper system. I've looked at the cheap Phillips that walmarts has. Real tempting... I'm a fan of anything involving the sea. Athough those Disney Pirate movies...

    Master & Commander in widescreen, finally! They've only ever had full screen of that before. EVen that double set with Dances with Wolves, I believe, was full screen all over the place. Can't wait to see it. Looks amazing. I nearly picked up Willow because I thought it was a fiver. But it...

    Heh heh! Well, I'm actually a fan of CUT on some things. Several Italian horror films look as if the gore put back in should have stayed out for good.

    Thanks for the info. That's the one I'll get. Off Topic: I just watched Legend (Tom Cruise) in the reworked version and the difference is amazing. The thing feels less empty now and much more fun to watch overall. I've heard MBV has it's problems...wondering if the uncut helps matters....

    I need to snag one of those Robin Hood MIT DVDs. I didn't care for that originally. Long passed due for a revisit. I picked up Alexander 2-DVD Unrated version for $5. Never seen it, don't tell me how it ends!! Haahaha! And Tootsie 25th Anniversary Ed for $7. I didn't see much else in...

    I heard that Italian films were almost always redone completely for sound even if they were done in english originally. I believe it was never dubbed since it was never released to english speaking countries.

    Nice! Although that predator pack I think only includes the old release. And The Man with no Name...does that included the extended remaster version?

    Usually they just leave it there. I just know there's a few oop titles at the bottom. I'd like to take the whole thing out in the parking lot and dump it out and sort thru. :D And if they want me to put em back then... (should be a pic of a bulldozer)

    I saw that comedy set just today! And didn't retain the titles either. :D I didn't see the Death Wish one. Probably would have bought it since 2 of the flicks I don't have. I also saw Hook/Indian in the Cupboard in there. I already have Hook (not my favorite movie) and have never seen...

    ^^^ Neat! I was in there the other day and saw a 3 movie set with Death Wish in it. All in widescreen. Can't remember the others. $5 for 3 flicks. Not bad! I picked up that Mill Creek Howdy Doody set late last year. I'm sure there are still a few of those in there.

    Thanks. For now on I'll do that too. Rocky V skipped too even though it wasn't a floater. :frowning: I'm watching these on a DVD player prone to problems, an old RCA. It's really good at finding the tiniest little problem. I was thinking EMSA won't detect an error if if can "get over" the...

    I picked up the 2 Matrix sequels in widescreen. Reloaded and Revolutions. Very happy to finally have these. I saw Ultraviolent PG-13 with sexy Milla Jovovick but didn't buy it. ... looks terrible. I hope I see Fargo in mine. I'll dig down. I haven't seen that little gem in years...

    A few of those sports DVDs were $1 at my Walmart! Nothing of interest to me. I was hoping that Mike Tyson fight collection was among the cheapies (if that was ESPN). That's one I'd buy.

    I'm still finding a lot of great stuff in my bin. Every few weeks I wonder what the next Mill Creek set will be in there for 5 bucks. I've pretty much bought them all...lated, The Legend of Rin Tin tin.

    I've got to go back and pick up a spaghetti western that was in there. Hang em High, I think it was. I'll be sad to seem them go. But I can get similar deals online. No big whoop if wal mart doesn't want my standard DVD biz.

    I'm thinking a lot of stuff like this is going to be much much more common in the near future in the form of streaming shows all over the place. I'm hoping a lot of stuff comes out of the woodworks. That happened when cable was new. HD TV too. I remember when I was in Sears years ago and...

    Well said. the worst thing is when you're going thru those boxes and some other schmuck shows up to look too. You just kind of smile weakly and say "hi". What you really want to say is "step aside dickhead until I'm done!!" Good luck finding those. My guess is that these episodes for sale...

    Mike, the Howdy Doody show probably looks exactly like you'd expect. But they really aren't that messy looking. Time has taken away the sharp detail, the prints certainly leave a lot to be desired. BUt I would've be disappointed if I paid $4 or 5 for these instead of only a dollar...

    Just noticed your post. I'll open them when I get home and give you a report. The shots on the back make them look like they have a lot of overly bright blotches and that sort of thing. I have 2 DVDs of color episodes as well that were done in the 70s. I was disappointed since I wanted the...

    True. Although that makes it look more nostalgic, like TV. Might actually be better that way alongside the Old School TV set. Please...nobody throw things at me. :eek: I almost never buy anything but widescreen unless it's a rarity with heavy nostalgia.

    I agree. Some good ones. But I spent my gift cards on something other than bargain bin stuff. Interview with a Vampire and Dirty Dozen better be in there in a few weeks when I visit again. I also saw Best of Bonanza and Best of The Lucy Show from Milll Creek in the bins. Didn't buy either...
