    UHD Review A Few Words About While we wait for a few words about...™ The Godfather(s) -- in 4k UHD

    Press Release Announcing the launch of MOVIES ANYWHERE

    The "Jurassic Park" movies seem to now be 4K HDR, but for some reason, although I got the first three on a digital code, they aren't upgrading for me. Only "Jurassic World" did, which I bought on iTunes.

    Does the NBC app output 4K? Or, more specifically, will we be able to stream any of the Olympics in 4K?

    3D Terminator 2 Judgement Day 3D

    The film never played in China. The 3D conversion was done specifically for the Chinese market. U.S. is an afterthought here.

    Incorrect Framing or Artistic Choice?

    When shooting a movie you want the focus on the face, and you want to give a little room for the chin to drop as the actor talks, so often DPs frame from the top of the forehead down to the neck. You learn it pretty much on the first day of camera classes in film school.

    Win a Denon X5200W 9.2 channel Dolby Atmos AVR with a copy of Insurgent on Blu-ray!

    Ideally? I'd have a basement where I could set up an Atmos theater with proper overheads. But, since I live in Florida basements are a rare find in homes. Maybe id I close in the garage...

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

    Ideally, I wish I had a basement I could set up into a nice home theater. But I live in Florida, where there are no basements, so I'll make something work.

    Epcot Mickey? Oh, no, no, no, no. You've got to go to the Mickey at the Magic Kingdom. He's in the Town Square Theater up front. He's far more...interactive. Trust me. (Spoiler Alert: he talks now.)

    Criterion in 2013

    I was thinking "The Circus" since Criterion has been working through Chaplin's catalogue.
