Those are very good points. I wonder if Microsoft will get involved in this further by making their next XBox HD-DVD compatible. I don't know if they will go Blu-Ray or even if Sony would allow them to since those two consoles are competitors. However, maybe they will work out the differences...

Yeah, I'm not a big Comcast fan either, but they are a necessary evil right now as DSL is not available here and dialup is not an option. :) What really stinks is that our cable internet bill went up $15.00 because we ditched cable TV and went to DirecTV which is much cheaper than digital...

One factor that favors HD-DVD over Blu-Ray is that it costs less to manufacture. I remember reading an article here where a demonstration was shown in Japan. A DVD manufacturer made a batch of HD-DVD's. They then stopped the batch, made a couple quick changes, and then started making a batch of...

I'm just wondering if Columbia will do anything stupid like make Full Screen 16:9 films for those dummies who have 16:9 TV, but still hate the smaller black bars at the top and bottom. I wonder what those same people are going to think when they play one of their Full Screen 4:3 films on a 16:9...

I wanted Warner to win so that all of the rights issues concerning The Hobbit would be out of the way. I don't know if we will ever see Jackson's version now. Patrick

Thanks for the information Ray. At least I know I don't have to exchange the set. I just hope there is nothing major wrong with the other discs as I haven't been able to watch them yet. Patrick

Thanks for the information Jari. I'll just keep the set I have since it seems like a mastering or encoding error. Patrick

I just picked up my set Tuesday and I think I've noticed a small glitch in the 4th episode on Disc 1 called "Slouching Toward Bethlehem". I noticed there is a funny stuttering effect that lasts for about half a second at approximately one minute into the episode. It occurs right after the...

Hello, I know Universal said it was a DVD Player problem, but I'm not so sure. I believe it could be limited to a bad batch of discs. I recently bought the Southern Cross boxed set which is an Anime title from ADV. On two of the episodes I ran into severe interlace artifacts. The motion...

Yes I would. I know many may criticize me for that, but I feel what you describe is more of a limitation of the way the effects had to be composited. The matte lines are not that big of a problem for me as I've stated. The biggest complaints I have are adding what I feel to be uneeded scenes...

I too agree that the theatrical presentation of all films should be preserved. Just because I don't like a certain film doesn't mean that someone else doesn't. I really hope the new Alien Quadrilogy boxed set features both the original and director's cuts of Alien and Aliens. I'm more concerned...

He could have a DD5.1 and the original sound. I don't her anyone complaining about E.T. having DD5.1 and DTS5.1. What was E.T.'s original sound format? As I've said, I believe that he cleaned up the video for the entirety of the movies before making the Special Edition alterations? Patrick

Aaron, I understand what you are saying. I do agree with Hector's theory about the films being cleaned up before the Special Edition changes were made. That is what I've always believed as well. I could be wrong though. If I'm right, I would be happy with that print since it is already cleaned...

I'm also interested. Do you take PayPal? What would shipping cost be to Virginia? This is if you haven't already sold it of course. :) Thanks. Patrick

I saw this film many years ago, so I don't remember very much about it. I would love to see it again though. I do have a question about something that stuck out in my mind from it. Thanks Patrick Possible spoiler. Wasn't there some kind of scary photograph. I think it was in a part where...

Hello, I created a petition for Fox to release the 1971 version of Vanishing Point on DVD. It is coming out in the UK in September, but I see no news about Region 1. The UK release is 16:9 widescreen, but it doesn't list the aspect ratio. Also, it is only in mono and doesn't mention the...

How about this classic? I have created a petition for it at: http://www.petitiononline.com/vpoint02/petition.html I see that it is coming out in the UK in September. When can we have a Region 1 release in 1.85:1 Anamorphic Widescreen. Also, please reinsert the cut Charlotte Rampling scenes...

Ric, I just wanted to say that I love your Star Trek: TOS DVD case art. I have just received my 5 disc cases from InetDVD and my legal size photo paper from Staples. I plan to print these babies as soon as possible. You have made it possible for me to free up some much needed space on my DVD...

Oops. Hit the wrong key and can't kill this post.

Forgive me if this has been posted before, but the search function is not working right now. Please Warner, Release the Gettysburg Director's Cut with all of the extra footage and goodies like the Kunsler Book, Map, bullet, etc. that where found in the deluxe VHS boxed set from several...
