I stopped collecting my favorite series because the quality of the discs just don't work for me. I've been wondering if this is gonna happen?

Sunday was gloomy, rainy and cold; perfect for a classic horror movie. I had been washing and folding clothes all day and was ready for a break. My wife had gone food shopping and was determined to watch a chick flick (her words) in the theater. The bedroom system is just standard def but works...

From the Criterion newsletter: "This August, Barnes & Noble is offering a special dog-days-of-summer deal for Criterion lovers as a way to stave off blockbuster fatigue: 30% off all Criterion Collection releases. The sale runs through the end of the month, both in DVD-carrying Barnes & Noble...

My theater has been missing a quality sub for years, but next week barring anymore cash-sappers (please no) I should have it in time to play on my birthday. Sometime ago I posed the question on sub choices and after talking to folks here and the guys at SVS settled on the 20-39 PC-Plus for my...

Didn't see this elsewhere so figured I'd post; a customer rep read the same message to me at 9PM on a Sunday in response to an email I'd written, letting them know I was checking other options after comparing Dish Networks 30 channels of HD with DirectTV's 8. Let's see how long this takes...

My wife asked this question last night as we were watching Rosemary's Baby and I realized I didn't have a good answer. It's one of her favorite movies, and she kept commenting on how sharp and clean the picture was. Are the networks running standard video through an upconversion process, or is...

My wife and I watched this last night on Turner Classics and were floored. We tried watching a couple years ago via Netflix but the picture was so poor we had to abort. Looking for the best available transfer, region not important.

Hi, Looks like my window to upgrade is here and I'll soon be saying goodbye to my trusty but less than stellar KLH/Atlantic Technology/Sony sub and speaker combo. I told my wife I could do this for about $1500 for speakers and sub, and another $1200 or so for a receiver. Our theater room is...

Ok, I'm waffleing. I'm upgrading everything; receiver- Yamaha 5140 to Outlaw 1050 (Outlaw amp later). Sub- Sony to HSU VTF-2. Where I'm stymied is the speakers. Main focus is home theater, which is why I was all set for the HTD Level III towers, center and bookshelf surrounds. But,and there's...

Ok, my brother is and always has been a huge Godzilla fan. He claims to have them all but Godzilla VS. the Smog Monster. Everything he's found says this one was never released in a home format. Is this true? Thanks

Was cruising through Circuit City and saw some Pioneer towers next to an Infinity model. Remembered they were fairly well-regarded way back when ( " I don't know a tweeter from a woofer from a hoofer..." )just wondering if these were any good as I'm looking to upgrade to towers before Christmas.

Still pretty new to this, so I'd appreciate any responses. My questions: * I've heard of Anime, Manga, Hentai. What makes them different, and are there sub-classes? * History of the art * What studios/directors/writers comprise the "major players", past and present? This should get me...
