Trying to find a bargain at local retailers for an LCD monitor is nearly impossible. I've never purchased a TV online and am interested in hearing from anyone who has. Most of the online sellers have a "No Return" policy on an opened box TV that doesn't work and indicate that any sucj problems...
Here's my situation. I want to buy a 26-27 inch LCD TV for our kitchen. I want to get the best bang for my hard earned dollar... I see the terms WXGA SXGA and XGA tossed around a lot and have tried to get the resoulutions for these terms set in my mind...with very little success. So far I've...
I've heard rumors that the movie "Crossroads" (1986) is being released this August....however I can't confirm this. Columbia was the company that released the movie in 1986 and I assume they still have the rights. I want to contact someone from that studio that can confirm the release of this...
Can anyone confrim that if you have a Dish system installed with the HD receivers and you take the local stations as a part of the Dish package.....AND the locals in your area are being broadcast in HD over the airwaves...will these locals be received through the Dish programing in HD or SD...
Hope someone can answer this question. I have an Hitachi 32 HD ready TV. I currently use the set's one set of Component inputs for my DVD player (progressive scan). I'm thinking of having the "Dish" installed in our home with the HD programing package. Since my set only has one set of...
I want to replace the 20 inch JVC we have in our kitchen with an LCD. I'm in sensory overload trying to decide which is the best LCD to purchase (money and features). So far we have seen a panasonic 20" TC20LA1 at Sam's for $964....has a nice picture and does the line doubling for regular...
I encountered this after buying the old Sam Elliot movie "The Quick and the Dead"...I updated my DVD profiler with the barcode and was surprised to find after downloading..that it was the "Hackman/Stone" version listed in the details etc. No picture was downloaded..just the other items. I can't...
Bought the DVD at the local Circuit City and found that there was no insert included with the DVD. I didn't notice a "Chapter/Scene's list" anywhere on the DVD back cover either. Did anyone get an insert?
I picked up this title at the local Costco for $9.99. I loved this movie when I saw it as kid. I was so pleased to see it released on DVD. I watched it last night and was surprised at how high I had to crank my amp to be able to hear the sound track. I'm wondering if this normal for this title...
We just finished watching his TV show and he did not look well. His mouth had a noticeable "droop" on the left side. He mentioned he had a surgery a couple of weeks ago. Anyone have any info on his current condition? He is my favorite critic and I want him to stick around for the next 50 or 60...
I'm a fan of David Mamet and would like to know if his 1991 movie "Homicide", starring Joe Mantegna and William H. Macy is ever going to be released on DVD? I've checked a few sites that list upcoming releases and haven't seen it. Any help would be appreciated.
I've heard that the movie "The Big Picture" was going to be released on DVD. I've been looking for it in stores....Costco, Best Buy, Circuit City etc. and have not seen it anywhere. Was it released on October 8th or has it been delayed?
Thanks
;)
It was a toss up as to where this post should go...so I picked this forum. I have an Hatachi Ultravision 32" HDTV and use it mostly for watching my DVD's. My DVD player is a Pioneer 525. The TV produces some really great looking pictures from DVD, near film quality, when I have the TV in the...
I picked this title up and finally had the opportunity to watch it this evening. Upon opening the DVD case, I was surprised to find no insert (the glossy paper with scene listing and usually a few pictures) included with the DVD. Does anyone know if an insert was supposed to be included with the...
Was having this debate with a couple of friends about the single best weatern released on DVD. We were not talking about the best transfer or sound or supplements..but just what we thought was the best all around Western movie ever released. The kind of movie that, if you could just own one...
you could buy the DVD in the Theater lobby right after just seeing the movie?
That's always been a fantasy of mine....seeing a great movie and then taking it home with me that night. Imagine how many impulse buys would take place if this was possible. Often times I find my desire to own a...
My question is regarding a Blade Runner SE. Originally I was going to purchase the Director's Cut when I heard that a SE was being released. I thought I would wait for the SE as the Director's Cut was bare bones. When I read that the SE was pretty expensive and it included posters and lots of...
I was thinking of some of the old movie serials I used to watch as a kid..and was wondering if we will ever see some of them released to DVD. I remember a few with great fondness and would like to see them revisited using the DVD format. It would be nice to have all 12 episodes on one...
I've been trying to find out if the Region 1 U.S. version will have an English audio sound track? I've read the specifications for this DVD at various websites and had gotten conflicting information. Does anyone know for sure if there will be a dubbed English option on this DVD? Thanks
I know that some of the earlier JVC models that advertised progressive scan did not incorporate the 3:2 pulldown...seemed like you had to pay upwards of $450 for one with that feature (remember the Pioneer model 434). Does this new JVC 500BX model selling for around $179 have the 3:2 pulldown...
I'm going to buy a second DVD player and have been shopping local retailers for brands. I see some decent prices on Toshiba DVD players...but seem to recall many problems people have with Toshiba DVD players handling different DVD titles. I currently have a Pioneer 525, and it handles every DVD...
Finally got to see this little gem. Any idea if it will make it to DVD? This one of the best movies "about making movies" I've seen.
Thanks :emoji_thumbsup:
I've been using the profiler for a while and think it's great. The problem I'm experiencing is when I try and view other members collection on line..I get the following error message everytime I try. Title Coll # Microsoft VBScript runtime error '800a000d' Type mismatch: 'lbound'...
Anyone have an opinion on this DVD? It's produced by Ovation Software (same people that make the AVIA). Does anyone know if the S&V DVD will allow you to calibrate your TV as well as the AVIA DVD? The S&V DVD comes with a blue filter and test patterns to adjust all the TV's user accessible...
I posted a thread a few days ago regarding the Circuit City price of the Hitachi model 32UDX10S HDTV for $999.00. Today I went back and purchased the set and found out that they also offer a $50 in store gift card when you purchase a 32" or larger set. So this unexpected wind-fall paid for a...
Okay...I'm going to scurry down to my local Circuit City and snatch one of these things for $999.00. After downloading and reading the owners manual, I see that you can connect a DVD player using the component connections OR a Hi Def Tuner.
Our cable company will be offering Digital cable in...
I've been looking for a Digital TV for the last 6 months and saw this one at the local Circuit City (price drop from $1160 to $999). I was leaning toward the Panasonic 32" HDTV..but it's $600 more than the Hitachi. I've compared picture quality in the store and both sets look comparable...
I've been going crazy looking for "The Big Picture" and "Clock Watchers". I've checked local Blockbusters and other independents (what few are still around) and have been unable to locate either of these titles. I hate to buy them just to view them..
Any idea where I can look for these two...
This has been driving me nuts. Don't even know why I thought of it. But while shaving this morning a recollection of a movie line (not even sure if I remember it correctly) popped into my head..and I can't remember what movie it's from....help!
The line is first said by a girl's...
