Latest firmware installed. Very clean! Includes original box, remote control and power cord. Working fine except that, on occasion, the tray will not eject on its own. I am 99% sure it is just a worn belt (see photo) but I have not researched replacing it. I usually just manually assist with...

Sorry if this is a re-post / old news. I came across this today and wanted to share: http://www.openculture.com/2012/11/nine_classic_superman_cartoons_restored_and_now_on_youtube.html If I recall, the cartoons included in the recent Superman Anthology Blu-Ray set were not restored or in HD, so...

Well, it only took about a year, but I think the bargain price is here now. I saw this at Fry's this week for $6. Still not cheap enough for me. I'm in the Mission to Mars camp. When that eventually arrives on Blu, I will wait for the bargain price first, but will pick it up.

It was here a while ago and now seems to have vanished.

DVDBeaver has a review up: http://www.dvdbeaver.com/film/DVDCompare3/savingprivateryan.htm Looks like another fine job in the video department, consistent with the Minority Report release. There's a color shift but I do not see a problem with it. The colors look more natural now.

DVDBeaver has a review up on the Region B release and it looks good: http://www.dvdbeaver.com/film/DVDCompare2/timebandits.htm This has me wondering about when North America will see a release as well as when we can expect Brazil. Criterion still had the rights to the latter last I checked and...

I'm surprised to see no coverage on this release anywhere so I will offer my thoughts on it. Very briefly, First Contact - Nemesis are the best looking of the four. I can see no evidence of any manipulation of the image in any of these. However, Generations kinda has the appearance of *some*...

Well I know this isn't a great film to many out there but I've always enjoyed it and feel that it puts some closure on 2001. The special effects were also very good for the time and hold up well. I've never been satisfied with any version available to the home video market until now. The...

Well since I have upgraded my primary display to an LED-backlit LCD, I am now more clearly seeing what others have pointed out. HD material with excessive DNR applied makes objects looked smeared and lacking in detail. And, yes, people's faces look like wax-figures. I have noticed this quite a...

Disney's done such a good job with BD right from the start. Anyone know when they will start to visit some older live-action titles like Tron and The Black Hole? I know the latter isn't exactly worthy of restoration work but I suspect some may be required to get it up to HD standards. Actually...

Could someone provide the most recent information on what the arrangement is between these three entities? I read a two year old article that said Sony would be handling the distribution of MGM films on Blu-Ray but the Bond films have the Fox logo on them. If Fox does have control over the...

So Hi-Def Digest is reporting a January release: MGM Planning 'Spinal Tap' Blu-ray | High-Def Digest This is one of those "how are they going to handle the grain?" Blu-Ray announcements I have been thinking about. I for one wouldn't mind the "Life of Brian" treatment as long as we also get...

I felt this forum was the best fit for this info. Its not exactly news but I didn't see it mentioned anywhere else on HTF yet. SciFi Japan » GODZILLA X HI-VISION - Godzilla Restored in HD Now I wonder how long before HDNet can air them. Even better, how long before we'll see them on...

* Note to moderator-- please move this to the Movies section. This is something that has been on my mind for a long time but I've never acted on. Thanks to the miracle that is the "Internets", I may finally obtain the answer I've been waiting for. I am a child of the 70's and I have a hazy...

There is a known defect with this receiver that I know some of you are aware of. I believe I may have been hit with it but I want to be sure. After close to a year of ownership now I noticed my LEFT FRONT effects speaker channel is dead. I tried replacing the wire, the terminals, the speaker, as...
