    Three Stooges

    Another rabid Stooges fan here who would immediately scoop up a complete box set of the two-reelers. I have all of the Curly-era ones on VHS (transferred from Beta, where I originally recorded them from TV more than 20 years ago!) and most of the Shemps as well. At this point acquiring these has...

    Carnivale (Season 2)...

    If you read the character bios on HBO's site you'll find what seems to be solid confirmation that this is correct. So we've got Management/Lucius Belyakov with a son and daughter (Justin and Iris) and then we have Scudder with a son (Ben) and, if you believe (as I do) that the tattooed man is in...

    HBO's "Carnivale" - status on season 1 set?

    I think you're more likely to see season 1 replayed on HBO to lead into and promote season 2. That's why they don't release it on DVD prior to that.

    Denon 2900

    Looks like this might be the one! Any idea (based on prior experience with Denon players) whether it will play SVCDs? It only says "Plays Audio/Video CDs" in the specs.

    Mode question for Pioneer PRO520HD owners

    As others have said, Full takes the input picture and displays it across the full width of the screen, hence it is the mode of choice for anamorphic/widescreen enhanced movies regardless of the aspect ratio of the film. No stretch, no zoom in this mode. Cinema wide is a zoom mode which is...

    HARRY POTTER -- comparison of WS v FS (merged thread)

    Right on, DaViD, you went straight to the heart of the matter. :emoji_thumbsup: This is a very interesting and relevant topic and I'm rather shocked and dismayed by the attempt to stifle discussion on the grounds of some perceived incompatibility with the forum mission statement. I'm as...

    Scrubs: Hilariouso

    This has become one of my favorite shows. And I was particularly happy to see them have JD and Elliot get together without all of the tortured "will they or won't they" nonsense which has become a sitcom staple. Even "Ed" is guilty of that one. And was there ever any question that Elliot is...
