    Lamp Replacement for an EPSON 8500ub

    I agree and believe that if something seems like it is too good to be true then it probably is. Thanks for the help. I appreciate it.

    Lamp Replacement for an EPSON 8500ub

    Hello. All. It's been a few years since i've posted here, nice to be back. I have a EPSON Home Cinema 8500ub with a picture that has gotten noticeably dimmer. I assume that I am looking at a replacement lamp. I checked the hours on the existing lamp and it shows 1350 hours. This lamp was...

    Receiver advise

    Well in interest of full disclosure, after many many many tries I was finally able to get a hold of customer support for Onkyo. I do have to give it to them. When I talked to the guy he informed me that the receiver was out of warranty. When I told him about the trouble I had with contacting him...

    Receiver advise

    I thought I would chime in on Onkyo/Integra. I currently have an Onkyo that needs servicing (TX-NR5007). At the time it was their top of the line flagship receiver. I have been trying to get a hold of their customer support for, I kid you not, well over a month. I called their number and was on...

    The best TV series to watch in a marathon setting.

    I never got past the first season of Lost when it was being broadcast as I could never keep up with all the storylines. A few days ago I saw that it was on Netflix and started watching it back-to-back. I have discovered that really is the best way to see a series like this. No commercials and...

    South Park: Season Fourteen

    Watched it again last night at Southparkstudios.com. I noticed that there aren't any female vocies at all during the whole show. Whenever there was a woman in a scene the men always went off on how they couldn't understand why anyone would "want" to have sex with a whole lot of women and every...

    Caprica

    The first episode that I felt really captured me. Hopefully the pace will pickup because I really can see some definate cool sifi potential. But why am I complaining. It should be no wonder the plot moves like molasas. After its "58 years before the fall". They've got some time to kill. :)

    2010 at the Box Office

    I'm sure most people have heard that Avatar has now become the top gossing movie of all time. I have always found statements like this to be disengenious. Mainly because how much money a movie makes depends more on how much the tickets prices are rather than how many people actually went to see...

    V - Season 1

    I for one am glad they reveled visitor's true reptilian nature quickly. I remember when I originally watch the show how that was such a huge climatic moment for the show. There is no way they could re-create the same drama from that plot point again. Either the audience is old enough to have had...

    I saw PA this past weekend. I really like it we had a packed house with everyone screaming and having a good time. I have just a couple of comments. 1. All the previews give away too much. If you want a truely terrifyling experience go into the theater completely unaware what the movie is...

    11) Rosemary's Baby (1968) (not recommending) This was a pretty good movie that had allot of freaky moments. I have serious misgivings about having watched it because of the writer/directors actions. For this reason I'll not rate it nor recommend it. 12) The Blob (1968)

    OK Thank-you for the clarification. I think Rocky Horror can get in as it literally is shown in a movie theater with actors performing in front of the screen paradying the movie as it plays. However I'll not include any of the other stage shows I intend to see during this Halloween season...

    Thanks. I guess I decided that I will count it, even if Rocky Horror is a parady of the horror film genre and the audience is paradying the movie.

    I have a question, I plan on seeing a live stage performance of "Rocky Horror Picture Show" in a week or two. Does live theater count?
