    Is There Any Update on Remington Steele?

    Agreed to that... Without Stephanie Zimbalist, I really thing Remington Steele just wouldn't be the same. I'd like to see a movie, but I'm just happy to re-live the episodes. It's like an hour of happiness...

    "The Flash" - A Worthy Blind Buy?

    After a somewhat glitchy start(wierd things that I can't explain), my disc 1 and two played fine on my Lite-On dvd recorder. However, because the player defaults the subtitles on, and I was too lazy to turn them off, I noticed much subtitle wierdness. Several instances where the subtitles were...

    Star Wars: Episode III - Revenge of the Sith (2005)

    I'm sure this has been mentioned, but I just don't have time to read 9xx posts. I really hate when an idea or concept is introduced 5 minutes from the end of a film. As entertaining as I found this movie, I was royally disappointed in the ending, namely the qui-gon reference. As a casual...

    Need help starting a DVD collection for video rental store...

    I second the idea of tv show rentals. Especially series such as 24, Band of Brothers, CSI and the like. I know that many of the rental places around here don't carry those shows, and people are always asking for them.

    Question about dvdcoverart.com?

    my experience is that since most photo printers are able to handle borderless prints, just tell the printer that you're using 8 1/2 x 14 paper, and your covers should print fine, up to double cases. I was attaching the strip of paper for a bit, but stopped once I realized that I didn't need it...

    Convince me to watch Family Guy Vol 1 & 2

    Love the show. I never really got to watch it on tv, but embraced it fully on dvd. Many of my friends say that it's stupid, but find much of the humor funny when they sit and watch it. Go figure. It's definately an acquired taste, but at least give it a try, because if you don't like it...

    Ed Wood delayed AGAIN???

    It's been stated once, but if you have access to your local AAFES Military exchange, go there. I purchased one copy thier yesterday, and there were still several on the shelf. Funny thing was, the copies weren't there a couple of days ago, so they were just put out. It's worth a try, and...

    Two Towers Platinum Edition- Worth it?

    Honestly, I did not care for the Two Towers at the theater, and watching the extended version made a whole lot more sense, and greatly improved my enjoyment of the film! Definately something you should get. robyn

    Poll: The next HTF National Meet - what shall we consider?

    I've been envious of everyone who has been able to participate in a HTF event. I think that I'd be most interested in a L.A. meet-no cruise, and it would probably fit my budget better.

    Musicals appropriate for 5 y/o

    I forget about Cats, as I've never seen it, but I know a couple of 10 year olds that love it. :)

    Musicals appropriate for 5 y/o

    Well, there are several that would fit the bill as far as good musicals. Some transfers may be questionable, but good musicals all the same. The Music Man(my favorite) Seven Brides for Seven Brothers Brigadoon(may not be as interesting, but still a good one) Singin' in the Rain Guys and...

    DVD Market Fragmentation Attempt

    To those that believe that the local stores can affect change as far as widescreen v. fullscreen, think again. Our store has consistently provided widescreen copies, and for some reason, Corporate decided to send fullframe copies of Charlie's Angels. I know it's not because we requested them...

    My Favorites are actually ones that often get overlooked: The Tale of Mr. Morton (subjects predicates) $7.50 Once a Week(the allowance song) Dollars and Sense(the bank song) Hey Little Twelvetoes(the 12 song) Of course I like some of the more popular ones, too, like Interjections...

    Any reviews of Jimmy Neutron??

    Actually, I thought it was funny as heck. I don't have kids, but I'll probably be buying this one as well. Very cute parts, and the kind of humor that kids will enjoy, as well as several things that are just plain "Cool" for adults. I'd be suprised if your kids haven't seen this one...

    DVDsoon.com...has anyone used them?

    My experience was that they were slow. Charged the card upon ordering, got the dvds exactly two weeks from shipping. If you're not in a hurry, I would recommend them. Thier prices were cheap, and ulitmatly, I got what I paid for. I'd give them at least 3 stars. robyn

    OK, show of hands: Who wants Popeye (1980) on DVD?

    We have a copy of Popeye at the video store, and we watch it at least once a month. I never get tired of it. This is definately something I would add to my collection if given the opportunity!

    Muppet Widescreen campaign to the Henson company

    Let me rephrase my question--I guess my question was whether or not anyone had actually heard anything regarding whether our comments are having any kind of affect on powers to be. I got a nice, polite reply from the muppet guys, but all that said was that they are forwarding my comments to...

    Muppet Widescreen campaign to the Henson company

    Disney - phone drive is 99.9% in favor of Pan and Scan!!!

    Just got through. I spoke to Sara, who was very friendly, and was typing while I spoke. I basically started the conversation by telling her I wanted to complain(and kinda laughed.) Then I told her I was going to do it nicely, and she chuckled, took my info, and off we went. She chatted with...
