    HELP! If you had $1000 to spend on a TV, what would you get?

    Tell me more. Are you speaking of an InFocus projector? What model (there seems to be at least a couple X1s on CC's website)? How often does one need to replace a bulb, and how pricey are they? Possibly some stupid questions: Did you just hook up an HD reciever to view HD programming? Can you...

    HELP! If you had $1000 to spend on a TV, what would you get?

    I'm looking to get a new TV, and am willing to spend a grand (or less...). I've been considering some HD models, mostly CRTs from Samsung (30'' 16:9 or 32" 4:3). Still, HD sets are kind of pricey, and for a grand, they're kind of small. Also, I would need an HD set with an integrated tuner...

    Errol Morris Collection Release?

    I saw a flyer for these titles in MGM's When Will I Be Loved (strange marketing choice), but I don't have it any longer. Rest assured, they're coming.

    DVD Review HTF REVIEW: L'Eclisse - The Criterion Collection (RECOMMENDED).

    Simply a beautiful film and a splendid set. One of the best releases so far this year.

    Closer - only a Superbit version?

    The trailer is included. I find it interesting this release is still dubbed a Superbit, even though there are trailers, a motion menu, and a music video. My take at dOc: http://www.digitallyobsessed.com/sho...w.php3?ID=7137

    Jeunet's A Very Long Engagement: May 24 (now JULY 12)

    No, I knew going in how the film would be structured, but I felt like Jeunet's heart was in the war sequences, while the other material seemed rather labored. Just my take. We should probably try to focus conversation on the DVD....

    Jeunet's A Very Long Engagement: May 24 (now JULY 12)

    This was a real disappointment for me; though visually stunning, it seemed as though Jeunet wanted to make a straight war picture, but got bogged down in the somewhat forced interludes. Audrey did a fine job, but her search had little gravity for me, and the end was rather cliched. Amelie is...

    Best value HDTV with integrated tuner?

    Hello all. Sorry if this is a rehash of a previous topic. I'm in the market for an affordable 16:9 HDTV with an integrated tuner. I've had my eye on some Samsung models (a 26" and a 30") that run for under a grand. Right now, I wouldn't want to spend much more than this. These seem like solid...

    Terence Malick Special Editions?

    I'd love to see an SE of The Thin Red Line more than anyone, but I've started to get more realistic about the prospect; Malick avoids special features, and I don't think the 6 hour cut was intended for release. Prove me wrong, Fox!

    La Commare secca is a beauty! My review should be up tomorrow at dOc. A very comprehensive job, Herb.
