    Frank Herbert's DUNE Director's Cut: Worth a blind purchase?

    Thanks for the info about the interview Bill, I look forward to reading it. I also look forward to seeing how Harrison tackles Dune Messiah...that is probably my favorite book in the Dune series...I consider it the Empire Strikes Back of Dune, very dark stuff.

    Rush Vapor Trails leaked - My comments

    As far as the synth thing goes I just think that on PW the synth is overpowering. I think it is more of a production issue rather than a riff issue. I mean Signals is a very synth driven album, but the synth doesn't seem to overpower the songs, on PW it is very overpowering in my opinion...

    Rush Vapor Trails leaked - My comments

    I have to chime in on the PW vs MP debate. Anywho I think that in PW the use of synth became too central to the music. I know synth was used heavily on Signals and Grace Under Pressure, but the use of it on PW was very overpowering in my opinion, almost overshadowing. It still is a great...

    Rush Vapor Trails leaked - My comments

    I am very glad to see the good reviews. I too think this album is the best they have put out in years, in my opinion the best thing since Moving Pictures. I have been a Rush fan for 5 years, their song have honestly touched me like no other band. I first discovered them during a very...

    Lawrence of Arabia

    Well I bought the DVD of this movie last year sight unseen. I was honestly blown away. A buddy and I watched the movie on Easter Sunday and we both said the same things. "My god what a concept, a plot, character development!" and... "Wow, good camera angles, held for more than 5...

    *****Official 'Star Wars Episode I' Discussion Thread

    You know I gotta say the more I see this movie the more it grows on me. When I first saw it I was very dissapointed and I really wanted to like it. After not watching it since the theatrical release I have gotta say that my perspective changed cause I am enjoying it more and more...and yes I...

    The Terminator: SE 5.1 Audio Track -- Thumbs Down!

    I have been reading this thread since yesterday and I figure it is time for me to put my two cents in. I can honestly see both sides of the argument for the mono and for the 5.1 remix. I prefer the remix. I think Terminator is a damned good movie, but honestly when I popped the dvd in...

    Star Wars Definitive LDs

    I don't think any version of the original Trilogy on LD is worthless. I think you got a good deal, the book isn't that big of a deal. The sound is PCM stereo and can be decoded into Pro-Logic.

    Star Wars Definitive Collection LDs

    I own all three sets as well. Actually I have picked up all three within the last 2 years. I would hold on too it. I doubt the extras on the set will ever be included on a future dvd set. Plus it is a nice big boxed set...you don't see that kinda stuff on dvd, I actually got into LD after dvd.

    Gandhi, what a wonderful disc.

    I didn't see any threads on this so I figured I would just praise this new edition of this wonderful film. I am quite tickled to have this gem on dvd finally. I just want to praise the people who worked on this disc because the transfer, and the packaging is wonderful. Anyone else in...

    how to identify the new JP (and LW?) dts discs + who has done a review yet ?

    I have been following this story since its begining and I have to say shame on you Universal. I want to pick up the repressed DTS version but I really don't think that I want to give my money to a company that doesn't have the guts to admit it made a mistake.
