    SIRIUSXM: Still Lazy After All These Years

    I got the free trial for SiriusFM on my new car and decided to subscribe. Several channels (Like the NPR channel) sound terrible but my favorite channel -- the Broadway channel 72 -- sounds very good. It's a world away from my old alternatives which were AM and FM radio. Where I live the radio...

    Ghostbusters (2016)

    My family and I saw the movie today and loved it. It had the same mix of just scary enough ghosts, rude and funny humor and innocent sweetness that I remember the original having when I first saw it back in the 80's. It hit on the same story beats as the original without being a direct copy. And...

    Airport: The Complete Collection (Blu-Ray) Available for Preorder

    I too saw Airport 75 on a double bill with Earthquake but it was at the local drive-in theater. My parents took our family when I was 10 years old and I was a little grumpy we couldn't see Earthquake in Sensurround but the drive-in was the only game in town in those days. Anyway Airport '75 was...

    Blu-ray Review Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan Director's Cut Blu-Ray Review

    Anyone else having their order delayed by Amazon? The customer service person I emailed said they ran out of stock but I wonder if they could be waiting for a shipment of corrected disks?

    Weekly RoundUp 4-12-2016

    The Best Buy near me still has lots of media. In fact today they still had a few Force Awakens steelbooks on the big display in the front of the store.

    Could the original, unaltered STAR WARS be on its way to Blu-ray?

    I first saw Star Wars in 1977, when I was 11 years old. I remember standing in line with my best friend being nervous about whether I would like the movie or not. Maybe that furry monster guy would be too scary. Then we went in and sat down and that spaceship roared over our heads and the droids...

    The Good Dinosaur

    Took the kids to see it today. Only us and another family ( about 8 people?) in the 2 pm 3-D showing. I have enjoyed all of Pixar's movies but this is the first Pixar film that I got bored by. My kids ( ages 9 and 10) loved it though.

    Win an Onkyo TX-NR1030 9.2 channel Dolby Atmos AV Receiver

    I always have wanted the latest and greatest but budget and space constraints has me capped at 5.1 so it would be nice to win this receiver and then figure out the space constraints later. An investment in the future.

    3D BIG HERO 6

    I received my copy the other day. No DVD, digital copy or Disney reward points. It's nice to have a 3D copy though.

    Blu-ray Review Breaking Away Blu-ray Review

    I've lived in California my whole life and have never been anywhere near Indiana but this has always been one of my favorite movies since I saw it in high school all those years ago. I even loved the TV series. I'm looking forward to the blu-ray arriving in the mail. I haven't seen it in a long...
