    Should I buy Onkyo TXDS797 or Denon 2802?

    I think you're right on target, you'll like either receiver and their features; and will learn to enjoy what is new to you and will begin to differentiate from your previous experience with non-THX and non-EX (thx or otherwise) experiences in HT.

    Superbits Look and Sound Great!

    Yeah, the DTS is fine, but the Superbits Desperado, on my Sony 670 Carousel chokes consistently at the 18:03 mark, and then starts playing again. At first it paused at the 17:54 mark, the 17:59 mark, and then stutter stepped thru the first few seconds past the 18:00 mark. With a few repeated...

    bad Gladiator disc one?

    turns out that it had a glaze on it, that was removed by cleaning with warm water and a cloth towel. I had used disc cleaner on it and the disc showed a faint glaze, which I noticed after its return to me. The damm thing would either freeze or replay a section or not play at all.

    The French Connection and Citizen Kane DVDs

    hmm, time to get out of the home theater forum thing. KANE DEAD deep focus & story construct not touched upon, time & room permitting . . . never mind the incredible cast or KANE's making of history must not mean anything to you because citizen kane story structure and filmic techniques...

    Foreign Film Preorder List

    anyone have a clue as to what is missing from Image Entertainment's release of Luchino Visconti's Rocco and his Brothers? Image shows a 168 minute version, while IMDB tells of several scenes being cut, including some of the rape scene, from an original 180 minutes, and further cut upon its...

    I haven't been following this topic at all until my friend emailed me about Amazon's reply, but I thank you very much, Glenn and Mark, you are both right on target. I asked my friend why Amazon? I guess my other friend is starting to look *smart* by pre-ordering the Japanese R2 version . . . .

    Ordered your Region 2 copy of DON'T LOOK NOW yet?

    Florian - what site is that? it has a different picture - of the cover? - than that shown on Dvd Station and Amazon. No questions asked - Don't Look Now is one of the most bone-chilling thrillers as it plays upon the viewer's mind by suggesting an apparent psychic connection between the...

    R2 release of Hard Boiled? ++

    Hendrik - yes it is anamorphic, and yes, right, it is pal (using an Apex and vid grade crt; I know, the 4% speedup, and the occasional prob with those extra scan lines announcing theirselves). *But it is nice to see it with the extra res.* But Tartan's picture is not the repaired one that...
