A quick preamble before the actual post. I was totally blown away by getting a blu ray player for Christmas. I was actually a little in a no-man's land about formats. Why mention this? Because I must admit I'm clueless about releases and such. Which brings me to my question. Most if not...

Does anybody have any unique ideas for storing 1000+ cd's? I've read the existing threads and didn't really find anything that fits what I am looking for. I'd like to say there is an emphasis on "cheap". I saw some cases on sale that hold up to 450 CD's in sleeves but I don't know what I...

The Damned have released there newest album. "SO, WHO'S PARANOID" for download for $9.99. It's available on their website, OfficialDamned.com - The Damned official website. The CD will be out soon as well as a double album. I've been a Damned fan since the 80's, from the very first time I saw...

There's been lots of reports from people who purchased the Director's Cut of Jet Li's FEARLESS and found that the two discs contained the same content. If you pick this up you may want to check the discs. For once I am happy I didn't pre-order something.

I have Directv and am pretty happy with it. The other day an Optimum "Account Manager" knocks on my door and gives this great deal on the whole Optimum TV/Phone/Internet package. I could save a lot of money by switching to Optimum and getting the package deal. I was actually thinking about it...

From Director Noboru Iguchi comes the Japanese gore-fest, THE MACHINE GIRL. When Ami's brother Yu and his friend are killed by the son of a Yakuza she seeks revenge. Though only a high school student Ami is a strong fighter and fiercely protective of her brother. Their parents comitted...

I've seen listings on Amazon for Collector's Editions of 3 Joy Division albums. I believe these may also have different material than what is in the box set, Heart and Soul. I didn't get the box set because I have the original pressings of the CD's and maybe with the exception of one song...

There are lots of threads about movie remakes and how these remakes stay true or stray from the original movie or concept. So where is the line drawn between a remake, a story based on, or just using the same title as an excuse to draw a theoretical pre-audiance? To be honest, the reason I...

Ok, I am not going crazy. Pepsi has a commercial with the song Jet Boy,Jet Girl being sung in French. This is probably the original. Does anybody speak French or know the song? Because in the versions I have heard in English by The Damned (Captain Sensible and the Softies), and Elton Morello...

Admins, feel free to move this if this isn't the right place for this. Here's my dilemma, I have an older HI8 Hitachi camcorder but I don't have the original charger for it. I have since replaced the charger but no longer had a way of powering it directly. I need to dump the tapes to my...

Does anybody know if there will every be an anamorphic From Dusk Till Dawn? I noticed it's been playing in HD on some stations and was just hoping that this may get a new release someday. It doesn't make sense that this wasn't realeased anamorphic. I know it isn't Star Wars, oh, wait a...

I recently bought a 42 inch Samsung DLP set and love it. I was gently cleaning the screen today and noticed some slight blemishes on the inside of the screen. I only notice these wen it's on if I look at it at a certain angle. The problem is, I know they are there and my eyes go to it whenever...

I have been using Cakewalk to get some of my long out of print albums and singles to CD and have been pretty happy with the results. I was thinking of doing this as a "service" and had a few questions. I apologize if this isn't the correct forum for this. Would there be any legal stuff I...

Any help on this would be greatly appreciated. I have a 47WX49 and a while back every once in a while the red in the picture would just go out. It would come back in a minute or 2 but it was entirely unpredictable. I had a technician come out 3 times and he couldn't find anything. Now...

Apologies if this isn't the correct are to post this. The instruction booklet that came with the care adapter for the receiver said that leaving the power supply connected could drain the car battery. Is it safe to assume that this would only happen if the receiver is left on? This is in...

I did a search and didn't find anything on this. Any word on an Addam's Family season set? Matt

GAME OF DEATH 2 begins with Bruce Lee investigating the death of a friend. He begins by tracking down his friend's daughter. During the funeral, he is killed while trying to stop a helicopter form stealing the coffin. It is up to Bruce's brother to find out what happened and get revenge which...

PRODIGAL SON is the story of Leung Chang (Yuen Biao). He is called the "Street Brawler" because of his prowess in Kung Fu, at least that's what he thinks. What he doesn't know is that his father pays his opponents to lose so his son doesn't get hurt. Leung Chang only find this out by getting...

A big thank you to the great people at Fox who sent me the latest wave of Martial Arts movies to review. This is the first of 5. Next will be PRODIGAL SON. Here's some trivia for you. What where the stars of CROUCHING TIGER, HIDDEN DRAGON, and THE LAST samurai doing in 1986? Starring in...

For those Green Day fans, you'll want to know that the remastered CD has extra multimedia content and the same tracks from the previous cd. To me, this is Green Day's best. The first singles, which are on this CD are great. I can see why they became popular. I still have the original green...

To those who are unfamilar with BAD RELIGION, they have been around since the early 80's and have lyrics that may surprise you for a Punk band. You may find yourself breaking out a thesaurus when listening to some of their albums. BAD RELIGION is so much deeper than your run of the mill Punk...

In case anybody is interested, The Descendents just came out with their latest EP, called "'MERICAN". There new album is due in another month or so and is called "Cool to be You". For those unfamilar, the Descendents have been around since 11979 or 1980 and have released some great albums...

I need to clean the screen of my Panasonic 47WX49 RPTV and was wondering what is best to use. I had some work done a while back on it and the technician installed a free protective screen. I recently noticed dirt in between the protective screen and the regular ones. I had already taken...

Although there is slight room for improvement, Fox/Fortune Star is doing a great job with these Hong Kong titles. I hope everybody who is interested in Hong Kong films supports Fox so that they continue this line. Below are brief reviews for the latest wave of Hong Kong DVD's. In just about...

I'm not sure if it would be appropriate of if it would require too much maintanance, a master thread of problem DVD's would be great. By problem DVD's I mean one's that without a doubt have a problem such as missing dialogue (Reservoir Dogs), replaced dialogue (Day of the Dead), or different...

I generally don't care for MP3's but I was considering making mix CD's for a party. Of course, a CD filled with MP3's would hold a lot more and I won't be changing CD's as often. The five disc changer doesn't last that long depending on which CD's I have in it. If I use a high sampling rate...

I know this question comes up every once in a while but I wanted to see what everyone thought. I make VCD'S for myself of my daughter's pictures and I set them to music. If I were to do this for other people and charge them, would it be a copyright violation if I had them supply the original...

Miramax has a marketing team contacting web sites offering goodies in exchange for putting up links promoting their release. I ask any other webmasters to refuse if asked unless the movie is uncut and has the original soundtrack. I have heard for a while that there is an English dub and some...

I couldn't find the old thread with the search function so I apologize in advance for starting a new one on this. The Mei Ah remastered HARD BOILED DVD is now available. I haven't personally seen it yet as mine is in the mail. While it probably won't be perfect, it is really the only one in...

I have a reliable source that says there is a good chance that Mei Ah will be releasing an anamorphic HARD BOILED with DTS in a month or so. I hope the original mono soundtrack is included. Mei Ah generally isn't big with extras but I don't think a trailer would be out of the question. Their...
