    The DVD day’s are numbered.

    Like many others, if I can't hold it in my hands, enjoy the packaging artwork, etc.... I'm not interested. I don't think it's going to vanish anytime soon, but I may have said the same thing about theater projectionist several years ago. I still buy 16MM and some 8MM prints if I get a good...

    What DVD Did You Watch Last?

    Last night my grandson and I watched Laurel & Hardy in "Saps At Sea". He's seven and cannot control his laughter watching Laurel & Hardy.

    Dr. Cyclops – Blu-ray Review

    One of my favorites movies growing up. It aired very often on local TV in the 60's. I'll be getting a copy, thanks for the review.

    Wall vs a cheap diy screen

    I have a "Da-Lite" brand screen (flat white) that I'm happy with. This company has been around manufacturing screens since 1909 and still going. I had one back in the 1970's for film projection (still have it) and picked up a larger one a couple of years ago for my video projector that I use...

    Favorite breakfast cereal

    Honey Bunches Of Oats and plain old Kelloggs Corn Flakes with sugar, eaten fast before they get soggy.

    I like lemon filled and jelly filled, but my favorite is the regular old glazed donut.

    What’s Your Preferred Donut?

    Here in Panama City Beach, Florida we still have a local mom & pop donut shop, "Thomas Donuts" (Mike Thomas). They've been here in the same location, same wood frame building and same owner for thirty or more years. The best donuts around here, Dunkin and Krispy Kreme that we have in town...

    Warner DVD's not working thread - watch to make sure they still play

    I had the exact same problem with "The Orignal Nancy Drew Move Mystery Collection" (Warners). A two disk, four movie set. Two of the movies, on different disk, freezes in several places. I tried cleaning the disk and using "Scratch Out" . Very aggravating, I had only watched them a couple of...

    Julie Andrews on TCM Cohosting A Salute to Julie Andrews 10/29

    I remember as a kid going to the theater with my mom to see Thoroughly Modern Millie, as well as other Julie Andrews movies (Hawaii and The Sound Of Music). I have been a huge fan of Julies Andrews ever since, and love her music. The soundtrack album from The Sound Of Music has always been a...

    Why I don't like seeing films theatrically anymore

    The last time I attended a modern theater was 2011 for "Hugo". Fortunately, we have a Martin Theater in the downtown area that was built in 1936 that shows classic movies, live performances, etc.. that I go to often. It's being repaired from last year's hurricane damage, but hopefully will...
