I know some sequences in 'Dark Knight' were filmed with IMAX cameras. Due to nature/depth of the film for a first viewing would you recommend seeing it on a big spectacle IMAX screen or a typical sized multiplex theater where it might be a slightly more intimate viewing?

I'd love to get this fantastic PBS educational series for my kids however it seems only 3 dvds (6 episodes) were released in 2004 and the DVDs are out of print and practically impossible to find. Any news on a rerelease or a box set of the 40+ episodes???

I know this got pretty much panned but anyone see reviews for the dvd? An interesting premise + a decent scifi/action director in Hyams should have produced something worth renting.

I'm looking for rope lighting for my trey ceiling and also for under riser edge. I've read the clear rope lighting can yellow a bit. I'm thinking of going with white (which I believe is also known as frosted.) Here's what I'm thinking of getting...

I'm interested in a set of 4 Optimus LX5 speakers with the Lineaum tweeters. If anyone has upgraded and have some lying around please get back to me thanks! derek [email protected]

Anyone by chance using Green Glue in their HT project have any extra tubes? I"m looking for 4-8 thanks! derek

I'm planning to have my equipment rack in a storage room next to my home theater with an opening (custom glass door) into the HT room. Based on equipment I need to be accessible/IR controlled (ie DVD player, cable box, receiver but not power conditioner/amps etc) I'm wondering what a good height...

A dumb question but do most/all manual lifts accept 12x4 sheets of drywall??? I'm thinking about renting one this weekend thanks.

Discovery is having a marathon Saturday replaying all the specials on this week. Anything of note worth taping??? The consensus here last year was that Shark Week was becoming a bloated un-original recycled event...

I have 100 sheets of drywall sitting in my driveway from Home Depot. No way can I move all of that in till at least a week or two. If I cover it with tarp is it ok to keep outside for a bit? It may be a dumb question but I'm unsure if the summer heat/humidity could damage it? TIA.

I need to add approx 6 new circuits in my Cutler-Hammer main panel. They are of CH type and I don't think I can find the tandem breakers (CHT2020) I need locally. Can I use another brand with same ratings/same form factor if I could find one? Would this be any type of code violation? TIA.

Well yes I guess you could call it 'The XFiles of Faith.' Found the adult drama to be good with decent characterizations, attentive pacing, intriguing plot developments and some nice camera/visual work. The religious angles are interesting yet from my Christian perspective it amounts mostly to...

I'm currently laying wire for the recepticles around my basement. I'd like to run the 12/2 up the stud from the recepticle to about 4 ft above floor level then over horizontal to the next recepticle location. Every 4 feet drilling a hole through the stud and snaking the wire through for support...

I've begun construction on finishing my home basement and have come across a dilemma. Currently I plan to have the HT room approx 14'x22' with a storage room adjacent. Also a small niche area for possible wetbar/media storage. I plan on hiding my equipment rack in the storage room. I've thought...

I'm starting a thread for those following the new BSG series that debuted on the SciFi channel last Friday 1/14 here in the States. So spoilers only for those episodes broadcast on SciFi. As a big time fan of the original BSG I hesistantly welcomed the new miniseries that debuted last year. I...

I'm seriously considering a 50-60" LCD projection tv for our family room viewing. Looking at the Sony Grand Wega's in particular. One thing I'm concerned with is the fingerprints, food smudges and the possible inadverdent plastic toy damaging the screen. My 3 young children are warned to not...

Well I'm getting some contractors in to give us estimates on finishing our basement. Obviously of most importance is the HT room! I'll be mounting a CRT projector with probably a painted wall screen. I'll be doing the low voltage wiring/conduits myself. I plan on having a dedicated 20amp...

Thinking about picking up this direct-to-video DVD for the kids wondering if anyone has seen reviews or has personal feedback? Thanks!

...be safe...

Anyone have a wall mount for a 19" set they are not using? Or any suggestions on where to purchase one? TIA!

A friend of mine is in the market for a used/refurbed laptop (under $500 if possible) that would be able to play DVDs. What would be the minimum processor/speed/ram requirements? TIA!

I’ve tried to catch most of SG1 through season five now (syndicated) and just watched the episode ‘Red Sky.’ What strikes me was the negative slant by O’Neill specifically regarding the faith of the planet inhabitants. Jackson said their religion was sort of an evolution of Norse mythology. I...

The Criterion dvd is available online for about ~$30 or so but there is also what looks like a bare bones DVD available on ebay for under $10. Is this an import or Goodtimes release (p&s?) Does it have the anamorphic transfer? Any info appreciated. TIA!

With 'Walking with Dinosaurs' and 'Walking with Prehistoric Beasts' being among the best DVDs in my collection can anyone share some comments on this BBC DVD release? Narrated by Ben Stiller apparently it was sorta a 'Walking with Dinos Lite' that was geared towards the child/family audience...

I missed the film in the theater (unfortunately never went wide release.) The anamorphic (& full screen) DVD set is filled to the brim! Di$ney should be ashamed when this little studio (BigIdea) & Artisan can give us so much good stuff. Check http://www.bigidea.com/videos/veggie...vdfeatures.htm...

http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn...-2003Jan2.html Quite an interesting concept. Convenient and well priced...just DON'T keep it too long! Selection will probably be mostly recent releases but could force BlockBu$ter to reasses their pricing strategy.

I need to replace the drive in my ReplayTV and looking for a higher capacity EIDE drive that someone may have to spare. TIA!

Any reviews of this BBC TV produced two disc set that streets today?
