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

    I need to win this receiver as my wife would leave me if I were to purchase it. On the other hand I would have to buy more speakers which might end in the same result. Hmmmm... If I win, I might lose a wife of 34 years but I will have a brand new receiver...

    Is the OOP, Recalled, Unaltered version of The Devil's Advocate still very valuable?

    The original DA part number was: 15090 The repressed DA part number is: 16172 According to what I have read this number is on the box spine AND on the actual DVD itself. The original DVD had problems with Playback. There were problems with specific players both with audio and lock up...

    Grand Prix: Will it EVER be released?

    An interesting WB sidenote...I just watched ICE STATION ZEBRA (a former MGM widescreen LD) DVD and there was a making of about the "cameraman" who also worked on GRAND PRIX. There was a lot of footage from GRAND PRIX so maybe it will be one of the "options" for the next AOL/WB vote.

    Problem with Looney Tunes LASERDISC set

    It played fined on my LD player (Philips). I have encountered a similar problem you are talking about on other titles. What I mean is that a disc would skip/jump in one player but not another. I used to have a Pioneer player and every disc I owned played perfectly on it. Then a few years later I...

    Stolen collection: advice sought

    I work in a used CD/DVD store. We have a form that allows victims to buy back their collections at the cost at which we purchase them. There is no way of being able to tell a customer who is selling "stolen" items to: "hand them over or we're calling the cops" with out possibly having a...

    The Deadly Spawn?

    I'd never seen it before and did a blind buy at $14.99. I wasn't all that thrilled. It was OK, but nothing special. It does have extras which I have not yet gone through. I wouldn't recommend it as a blind buy.

    PILLOW TALK problems: Framing, freezing, etc. (MERGED THREAD)

    On the 17th of July I received a Monty Python MEANING OF LIFE disc and called Universal (see my previous post). They told me that the PILLOW TALK DVDs were not done yet - Interesting since someone received their replacement two days later.... Anyway calling in September I was told that...

    Dvd Collection Question Needs Answered......

    The only reason you have run out of space (unless your collection is bigger than mine -3100-) is that you have "locked" all your movies. What happens is that by locking the movies, it takes more space. I have gotten to the point where all I lock is the Title and Cover. Every-once-in-a-while (if...

    Canadian gets ARRESTED bringing THRILLER DVD across the border!

    The opening sequence does involve a little girl. So if the movie was "thrown in" to give it a "quick look" you could see why customes might question it. The movie has been available via Mail Order for a couple weeks.

    Original GODZILLA

    Many years ago Criterion announced it was going to release several Godzilla films on LD and then nothing more was said. I see that Columbia/Tristar is releasing GODZILLA VS THE SMOG MONSTER in a month or two.

    Battle Creek Brawl AKA The Big Brawl aspect ratio

    I looked everywhere for the DVD yesterday, and finally found it at Circuit City for only $6.99. I'll suspect that Walmart will put it in their $5.88 bin. Anyway on to your question... The package is mismarked (not a first for Fox). The DVD/film is aproximately 2.35:1 and anamorpically...
