    Does Pioneer still make good HT Receivers? If not, what should I buy?

    That is indeed more than what I wanted to spend but definitely appreciate the info. I guess I better start looking into Denon and Yamaha. Music definitely not as important as movie sound. Want the best bang for my buck there. Is there a specific model you would recommend for a newbie yet...

    Does Pioneer still make good HT Receivers? If not, what should I buy?

    Hi all. I am an old time HT enthusiast who put it all aside years ago when wife and I were outnumbered by our 3 kids lol. My first pioneer Elite was a VSX 49 pro logic. A 5.1 got the same name a few generations later and I had that too. Went for non elite years ago with a VSX 9120 when...

    Help with 4K settings - My biggest fear came true, someone gifted me a 75” UHD TV

    Yes, I know I am being dramatic but it’s true. It sounds petty but I’ve always taken months of research to choose and buy a new TV. A very nice person gave me a Samsung 75NU6900 as a thank you gift. They knew I was shopping for a 75” TV and surprised me. return or exchange is not an option...

    I am sure it's been discussed but now that UV is officially closed, any more conclusive word on when Paramount and MGM will join MA?

    Could the original, unaltered STAR WARS be on its way to Blu-ray?

    Hey I noticed that message on some movies and assumed it was a temporary problem. Are you saying some movies have just simply been removed from my library? I can no longer watch that digital copy?

    Could the original, unaltered STAR WARS be on its way to Blu-ray?

    Oh boy! I was under the impression it was fair play. That as long as they did not sell it, as l Ng Sam they were not making money from it, as long as I did not pay for it and as long as I owned the original HD BD Release then it was not illegal. Don’t know how I missed that. Sorry.

    Could the original, unaltered STAR WARS be on its way to Blu-ray?

    Would this be a good place to ask how to get this de specialized edition? I mean a simple way? I tried looking it up last year or the year before and went through the last and downloaded 2-3 programs to my laptop before I gave up and said I’m too old for this! I have the VHS and laserdisc...

    Star Wars: The Last Jedi discussion thread(Warning: Spoilers!)

    Have not read through all this but around page 14 people started talking about reactions to empire on release. Obviously my first thoughts were about how it’s my favourite, clearly the best by far. Also about how few people I really discussed the movie with back then compared to today seeing...

    Pre-Order DC Universe 10th Anniversary Collection (Blu-ray) Available for Preorder

    I don’t know why but lately if there’s is no digital copy I can’t seem to get myself to buy a movie. I can’t seem to buy these digital only either but somehow physical only doesn’t cut it anymore.

    21st Century Fox Studio Sold To Disney! Sale Finalized See Post #368

    I did a search for Disney buys Fox and/or acquires but turned up nothing. Please move this if it is in the wrong section. So the news is out about Disney buying Fox and it seems all everyone can talk about is the Xmen joining the MCU! Don’t get me wrong, the marvel movies are due for a fresh...

    Win an Onkyo TX-NR1030 9.2 channel Dolby Atmos AV Receiver

    Honestly, since the the third child arrived (9 years ago) there has been no time for more than an average of a movie a month OR LESS! Don't think I've upgraded receiver more than once in 5-6 years. Gone are the days of new TV a year and new receiver every 2 years... Would love to upgrade!

    Star Wars on Digital HD/Disney Movies Anywhere in May?

    Disney needs to buy Star Wars. Disney definitely has the clout and coin to own all 6 films. Why leave the first film in Fox's hands? Seems odd to only go halfway.

    Star Wars on Digital HD/Disney Movies Anywhere in May?

    The scene that bothers me the most from the Star Wars "Special Edition" is the Jabba and Han Solo scene. I can almost live with the rest. The worst change of all in my opinion is the song and dance number in Jabba's Palace in ROTJ. Just horrible. Just thinking about it makes me regret buying...

    Star Wars on Digital HD/Disney Movies Anywhere in May?

    I think most fans, like me, are tempted to buy because we are sick in the head and want to buy them again in any shape available. It's crazy. I have OOT on Laserdisc. Have DVD versions of all 6 including OOT as extras on the 2 disc OT release. I have the Bluray box with all 6 movies and...

    Star Wars on Digital HD/Disney Movies Anywhere in May?

    Which makes not having all 6 movies in the same locker all the more frustrating. I know it's business but it still boggles my mind that Disney would own only 5 of the 6. There HAS to be a deal that can be struck. Whatever Fox asks, it must be worth it to have the freedom to release all 6 at...

    Star Wars on Digital HD/Disney Movies Anywhere in May?

    So do I rant here about no original version for the OT or is there a separate thread for that? Seriously though I find the pricing insulting but typical Disney movie pricing. Don't understand why someone would buy lower quality digital copies when the superior BD releases are less expensive...

    Could the original, unaltered STAR WARS be on its way to Blu-ray?

    Hi guys,This might deserve its own thread but was not sure where to start it so I figured we are already talking Star Wars here. A moderator can move it if need be. Dark Horse is have a huge digital bundle sale of ALL of their Star Wars comics. It really looks like it's everything they've ever...

    Could the original, unaltered STAR WARS be on its way to Blu-ray?

    I've said it before and I'll say it again. I would pay $100 for an HD RELEASE of the original non "special edition" trilogy. You hear that Disney and Fox? please take my money!

    What is best way to get digital copy support from fox?

    FOX COMES THROUGH!Well it's only fair to end the thread with mentioning how Fox came through after all and I am happy. Short version is after another unanswered email I decided to call instead. Lady on the phone was super sweet, looked up my ticket and resolved my issue right away. I wish I had...

    What is best way to get digital copy support from fox?

    I would return/exchange but I bought the disc a few months ago. like I said its my bad for not checking when I opened it. I have tons of iTunes digital files and even a few UV titles as well and I have never had an insert missing either. if I get a "sorry, you must have lost it or you should...

    What is best way to get digital copy support from fox?

    Hi guys, First of all I have to mention that so far support for Digital Copy has been amazing. Most of the time redemption is smooth but I had a few cases where I had a small hiccup response from studios was impressive. Warner Bros, Universal some even answered within the hour of request sent...

    Thor: The Dark World (3D Blu-Ray Combo) (Blu-Ray Combo) Available for Preorder

    Well I am actually disappointed.I have gotten used to getting the all included combo packs. 3D BD for home, DVD for car and digital copy for whenever out or in a hotel room to view from my iPad or Apple TV. It should at least be an option or even a mailing option for an extra $3/$5. No way I am...

    Scream Factory to release "Prince of Darkness"

    Have to admit its one of my Carpenter favorites as well. Actually I would venture as far saying one of my all time favorites from any director.I think I enjoyed all his movies the first time but not many do I enjoy rewatching. Halloween and the Thing are at the top but I still remember that...
