    Any thoughts on what this is on Samsung display?

    I was thinking the same about pressure on the screen and not a specific area of pixels not working. Thanks for the replies. We have a newer unit available to replace this one, as I know it would not be worth trying to have it repaired.

    Any thoughts on what this is on Samsung display?

    My 87 year old Mother-In-Law has this area in the left-upper corner of her Samsung UN60F6350AFXZA Display. (Please ignore the reflection of the lamp in the upper right-hand corner!) I do not think it is a logo burn-in since most of those are in the bottom right corner. Bad pixels? Any thoughts...

    Concert Blu-rays (rock and pop) you recommend

    Just got "Billy Idol Live At The Hoover Dam", which is pretty good. I was hoping for a better volume level than when it was in the theatre. It is Dolby Atmos, though, I wish it had been on 4k. The visuals are great.

    Press Release PHE Press Release: Star Trek: Strange New Worlds - Season Two (4k UHD SteelBook) (Blu-ray SteelBook) (Blu-ray)

    Until I saw your post, I had no idea this had the magnetic images! I had noticed the package was much heavier than any other steel-book we have. Cool concept. My Wife also suggested putting the ones we do not use on the refrigerator!

    Star Trek: Strange New Worlds (2022) - Season 2

    My Wife even said, when we buy the disc release for the season, she will not want to watch that episode ever again. What a waste.

    UHD Review A Few Words About A few words about...™ - Singin' in the Rain -- in 4k UHD

    I have noticed WB has a tendency to put the 4k on the left and the BR on the right. We had issues with the disc hanging about 23 minutes in while playing on our Oppo UDP-203. We took the disc out and cleaned it and still had problems. We then decided to watch it on our PlayStation 5, and it...

    Mad Max Anthology 4K replacement discs

    Received today. The OLD UPC is 8 83929 68905 7. The NEW UPC is 8 83929 78999 3. I am sure the disc itself has a new identifier, but my vision is not good enough to obtain those numbers for you.

    Mad Max Anthology 4K replacement discs

    I have not heard anything from them since late January, when they said the discs would be shipping in late February. However, I came across a notification yesterday in my FedEx account, showing a label had been created for a shipment from "c/o P3 Global Services WBCP", Reference "MAXWB", with...

    Paramount+ Star Trek: Discovery - Official Thread

    I really stopped liking the show once it went into the future, (even though it had to). I have not liked anything about this season. It is just not "Star Trek" to me, anymore. I did not need much of a push to decide not to watch it any longer after this last episode, but I got it. Ridiculous.

    2022 MLB Season

    You are correct on all counts. If they really had wanted to keep Freeman, they would have wrapped him up this time last year. He was not only a great player, but the heart of the team.

    Cry Macho (2021)

    Yes, we watched it Sunday and enjoyed it. Good story. Eastwood fit perfectly. I read somewhere they had tried to make this as far back as 1991. And, don't forget - the guy is 91 years old, and acted in the movie and directed it.

    HBO Max 50% off HBO Max for Six Months

    I inquired with HBO Max about this through the web site, and by phone after I found a number for them. I had just started back on September the 1st, and did not see the option to get this deal by switching the plan. The phone support was not helpful, even trying to guess that if I cancelled...

    UHD Review A Few Words About A few words about...™ Cruella -- in 4k UHD Blu-ray

    We really liked this movie. We went in with low expectations the day it became available on Disney+. Afterwards, I immediately ordered the 4k disc. I myself grew up loving the original "101 Dalmatians", and it still one of my favorite animated movies. As for "Cruella", I thought it was well...

    Pre-Order Nightshift (1982) (Warner Archive Collection) Available for Preorder

    I have been waiting a long time for this to come out on Blu. I remember this being very funny when I was 21. I have it ordered, so we'll see how well it holds up.

    Are Amazon and Kino Feuding?

    I ordered "Shenandoah" from Target today, and I am supposed to have it Thursday.

    Are Amazon and Kino Feuding?

    I went ahead and cancelled my order, and used the promo credit they gave me for something else. No more ordering in advance with Amazon for me.

    Are Amazon and Kino Feuding?

    My order for "Shenandoah", placed in May, was supposed to be delivered this past Tuesday the 27th. I now show it "Arriving Aug 18 - Sep 16". I fussed at them and they gave me a promotional credit for $17.01, so I left the order with them. It looks like it is no longer available to order from...

    Blu-ray Review Let Him Go Blu-ray Review

    We watched this last night on HBO Max. I thought this was a very depressing film, showing how stupid and evil can be scary. Booboo Stewart was great. It is definitely worth viewing. Also, I may be crazy, but some of the music by Michael Giacchino sounded similar to that in "Unforgiven", which...

    The Tomorrow War (2021)

    We really enjoyed this. The Atmos sound was powerful, but the voice track seemed a little low.

    UHD Review A Few Words About A few words about...™ Indiana Jones - 4-movie collection -- in 4k UHD Blu-ray

    Same here, ordered March 16, and they sent me an e-mail to hold or cancel. I left it until this morning, when I cancelled and ordered from Target. They say I will have it Friday. I am fed-up with Amazon doing this to me on pre-orders. I can always purchase somewhere else, it seems, and...
