Loved Colin McRae Rally 3, and for $19.99 will be picking up #4:D Although it has scoreboards for Live, no multiplayer action :angry: Guess I'll have to wait for RallySport 2 for that. Here's a link to the UK version of the game...
Ron, glad you enjoyed the movie! One of my favorites from last year. It's a good horror/action movie with a ton of style and then there's Kate in her black costume for 2 hours:b The DVD: The picture quality is terrific, very sharp with great shadow detail. The sound is...
I have a very similar setup to what you are proposing. I have the 602's for the fronts, 601's for the rears, I upgraded my center to the CDM CNT and I have Def Tech 1500+ for my sub and I think it sounds great! My receiver is a Denon 2802 with a Denon DVD 1600 which also does DVD/Audio. I have...
I also bought my 1600 a couple of weeks ago and I love it. PQ is great and the sound from DVD-Audio is also great. I got it for 10% off at Ultimate Elec. as I also wanted the full warranty. The only thing I don't like is what is mentioned above. No backlight on remote or even glow in the dark...
I have the Xbox and Splinter Cell, and the Dolby Digital connection, the game is in 4.1. On the back of the packaging for Splinter Cell it says in-game Dolby Digital, but doesn't show the picture with the 5 boxes and the subbox. I don't know about MGS:S because I don't have it. So yes your...
I have had a Sony 32XBR450 for a year and half now with a Polk 400csi on the top. It is 27lbs. and is has bent the middle down about 1/2 inch. But looking at the tv straight on, you cannot see the dip down. It is only on the towards the back part (make sense?) I have my center angled down with a...
I work at a WMT and I am a big OAR fan, I have printed a page out from the Widescreen Advocacy Page and have it placed above the New Release section of our DVD section. I will do the same for this (Im a huge Star Wars fan) and that way the customers can see what they are missing
If they...
Got my dvd player in Nov 98, buy (collecting) movies ever since, now up to 152.
Have bought more in the the last year then ever before:D and still growing rapidly :)
Well it's good to see that my wife is like a lot of yours:D
We (I) only have about 150 movies and I have bought her about 5 movies for her. I don't think that she has EVER bought a movie for herself.
But each to their own, she has her own hobbies and I have mine :D
I buy most of my DVD's at my local Wal*Mart (where I also happen to work). Wal*Mart is supposed to have the lowest price on new releases, and will match any comp. ad. I use Mr. Lambert's EXCELLENT weekly roundup as a guide. If we don't get in a movie in widescreen or a older title I'll pick it...
Wow, great review Ron:)
The moment I saw the teaser for this on the Toy Story 2 dvd, I knew it would be great:D
Saw this in the theater with my wife and kids and we all loved it (esp. the Ep 2 trailer:b )
My kids and I can't wait until next Tues. 9/17 for this DVD, and it looks like...
One of my 80's favorites, I also picked mine up at Best Buy for $15.99. I was bummed that it didn't have any special features, but was still glad that it came out on DVD. The video and the audio are good, but not great. At least the video is anamorphic (unlike Can't Buy Me Love, which isn't in...
I passed on the oringal release and have been waiting for for this one. Im so glad that they did it right, can't wait til midnight 12:01am tuesday to get one of my favorite movies done RIGHT on DVD:emoji_thumbsup: :emoji_thumbsup:
Thanks for the great review Ron
Matt
Saw this in the theater, and I really enjoyed it. I know it was going to make a great DVD, but I did'nt know that it would sound this good. The DD track kicks major ass and the use of the surronds is nonstop. The video transfer looks pretty good on my 32"XBR. Good popcorn action movie...
Been waiting for this movie for along time, since I knew that the SE was coming I also waited:D
Much more of a Star Wars fan, than a Trek fan, but this is the one Star Trek movie I will be buying! Can't wait for Aug 6
I was over on B&W's website yesterday and it caught my eye that Skywalker Sound(George Lucas's recording studio) just switched to the Nautilus 802 surrond sound system. Looks very impressive:D
Matt
Rented this movie for my wife last night, I thought it was pretty good, great transfer and ok sound. She loved it:)
Good for a rental, but I don't think I'll buy it as I have and expensive August coming up.:D
Matt
I've had my 32XBR450 now for almost 9 months and I love it. Like you said, DVD's will blow you away with the clarity and the colors, they look amazing :emoji_thumbsup:
I have regular cable, and most channels look good, but some look grainy. I would say 85% look good, and 15% look grainy...
I also picked this title up last week, after many positive reviews on this forum. And like everyone says, it is one of the best DTS titles I've heard. :emoji_thumbsup: :emoji_thumbsup: :emoji_thumbsup:
This is now one of my demo disks :D
Matt
Ron, once again a great article, I hope that the "right" people read this!
I am one of those people who have been converted, back in the day of VHS only. Now I have over 120 WIDESCREEN only DVD's and a digital TV to see all of their beauty.
I know that I try to "convert" and educate as many...
I had a friend lend me this disk, and I thought, OK I'll watch it (thanks Scott). It now also one of my favorite movies, and I HATE musicals, my wife hates it :angry: , But I LOVE it:b I also now loan my disc out to friends, and I tell them to go into it with an open mind and get past the...

I've had my 32XBR450 for about 9 months now, and I love it. It looks great with analog cable and DVD's will blow you away. Anytime I have my friends over, they are drooling over it. I did calibrate it with AVIA and the color and blacks are perfect! Plus with with the Cinemotion function I...
1. More DTS titles/soundtracks!!!!!!!!!
2. A play all feature for extras instead of watching 2 minutes of a clip and having to go to the menu again to select the 2nd, and 3rd, etc!
3. Anamorphic transfers please !!
4. Ability to change soundtracks during a movie w/o having to go the menu...
