    Outtakes : why don't we see them more often?

    I second the Liar Liar CE outtakes - Jim Carrey's improv scenes are hilarious! With CG animated movies, I enjoy the added fake outtakes, but don't forget that there are outtakes from the animation process - as a tech geek I like seeing the CG goofs. A couple that comes to mind: Ultimate Toy...

    HTF REVIEW: "The Simpsons: The Complete Second Season" (with screenshots)

    Looks like it's worth the wait, though I can hardly wait any longer to get this set. A few of my favorites are in this season. "Fugu me!!!" Thanks Ron for the review and the great screenshots. (Fingers crossed for Season 3 early next year... come on Fox!)

    Chinese Mandarin DVDs Question

    Another DVD suggestion: Shower (aka Xizao) - funny & heart warming. If you aren't aware, there is a subtle difference in the Mandarin accents of people from Taiwan and often different parts of mainland China. So...I guess you'll have to watch movies produced in both places, although "Beijin"...

    ST:TNG as multiple discs in DVD Profiler?

    I'd like to confirm what Neil said above - put the disc in your dvd-rom and identify the disc by its ID. Even if it's not found in the Profiler Database, your local database should be able to distiguish between the discs and you can manually enter some of the info for each disc. I was able to...

    Amelie - U.S. Specs

    So, compared to the French 2-disc SE, we're missing (AFAIK): DTS track, Jeunet commentary, "the world of Amélie" featurette, production notes, bloopers of Audrey Tautou, picture gallery, the short-film "Foutaises", and DVD-Rom section. Was there deleted scenes? I didn't see that listed for...

    Can someone explain this 480i, 480p, 1080i business?

    There's a faq at AVSForum: http://www.avsforum.com/hdtvfaq/HDTV-FAQ.htm There's a short but informative section on the formats that you're asking about.

    Digital Bits rumor mill: BTTF and The Sting next summer!

    George, I see that you frequent both TheDigitalBits and DVDFile regularly like me. :) You might want to update the post title to the other site. BTTF is one of my favorite series and would be nice to have on DVD. I also hope that this rumor gets confirmed soon.

    Easter Eggs

    I personally go to www.dvdreview.com - they seem to have a pretty comprehensive list of discs and Easter Eggs. Look in the "Hidden Features" section of the site.

    Where to buy a region free DVD player?

    To answer Charles' question about DD and DTS decoding - the answer is a definite yes that the Malata does both. I have an old Sony receiver with only 5.1 inputs and I use the Malata to do both DD and DTS decoding. I've played a few DTS titles, including Gladiator and Die Hard SE. The audio...

    HTF REVIEW: The Simpsons Complete First Season Collector's Edition

    I totally agree with what Matt G (Giggey, not Groening) said about the show and the seasons. :) Definitely looking forward the the dvd's. In my circle of friends, I'm the biggest Simpsons fan - though I wouldn't call myself a "fanatic". (Does having 20+ tapes of episodes in EP count?)

    Baby Cart Samurai movies

    The Babycart series are available currently on DVD in Region 2/PAL only. There's a specialty rental place in Seattle called Scarecrow that carries them: Link Removed I rented the 2nd one of the series (River Styx) and I agree with Matt - the video looks like an old letterbox transfer...

    MALATA N996 review - The word, is GOOD!!

    I'm also interested in purchasing this player, but as it will be my primary (only) player to replace a dead Panasonic A310, I want to get as much reviews as possible. Anyone encounter any quality issues with this player so far? MP3 playback is one of my interests also. Someone please comment...

    College student needs cheapest possible solution for complete hi-fi system

    A budget of a grand? And you call yourself poor? :) First of all, it's definitely doable to get a respectful system in that budget. You may want to clarify some of your wants & wishes, and your "environment" -- Are you more interested in Video than Audio, or vice versa? Are you in a small...
