    Lost: Season Six

    I don't follow all the lost sites/podcasts etc. so I'm sure this has already been mentioned elsewhere, but on the sheet music jack found in his son's bedroom there was a note written about picking up the pace/tempo. I found that an amusing commentary on the show.

    Heath Ledger's final performance in The Imaginarium of Doctor Parnassus

    just got back from seeing this. it's great that we're 1 week into the year and already have a strong contender for best picture of the year. looks like it won't get as wide a release as it should but definitely make the effort to seek this one out.

    I'm bummed cuz it seems like a drought for good movies this holiday season....

    yeah I think it all depends on what you're looking for. Personally I thought Synecdoche, NY was great and I have high hopes that The Wrestler and Curious Case of Benjamin Button will be among the best films of the year. I'm not personally interested in Milk or Doubt but those are supposed to...

    *** Official SYNECDOCHE, NEW YORK (2008) Discussion Thread

    I guess we'll have to wait until this hits DVD to have much of a discussion on one of the best movies of the year. Seems like no one has seen this one. I'm hoping that's because of the limited distribution and not lack of interest.

    Lost: Season Four

    As far as I know this hasn't been posted here before and I think it could still pretty reasonably explain everything that's happened on the show. I read it a few weeks ago and from what I remember the stuff last night with michael fits right in with the theory. Lost: A theory on time travel

    RPTV Screen Cleaning Question

    I have a Toshiba TW40H80 that has the protective glare guard screen removed and although it survived many years, my kids have finally managed to get some fingerprints on the screen. My question is what would be safe to use to clean the screen? Thanks for any advice. Aaron

    *** Official THE MIST Review Thread

    Saw this last night. The book is one of my all time favorite stories so i was prepared to be very let down and i wasn't. I enjoyed it. I didn't mind the ending either, although the timing seemed kind of compressed (meaning from the time they ran out of gas to the time the tanks rolled through)...

    Price check on Toshiba TW40H80

    Hi everyone. I'm sorry if this is not the proper forum to post this question. I have not been intending to upgrade my display but the $1299 Sharp Aquos 46" on black friday seems like it may be too good to pass up. My question is, what do you think I could sell my current set for. It is a Toshiba...

    Toshiba HD-A2 sells over 90,000 for the weekend

    Just in case it hasn't been mentioned elsewhere (i didn't see it while skimming this thread) I ordered the A2 from best buy for $99 and after a few days got an email saying the item was sold out and discontinued so they would be filling my order with the A3. Extra 2 movies for me! (the other 2...

    Lost season 3 discussion....

    i asked this on another forum but haven't gotten an answer there so, was the woman playing jacks ex-wife in last night's episode the same as we have seen in the past? She looked different to me for some reason.

    DVD Review HTF REVIEW: The Fountain

    On Darren's myspace blog he said that the studio didn't want to pay for a commentary track because they didn't think it would help sales, but that he was going to try and record one and put it up on the web for download so you could listen to it along with the movie. He also suggested writing to...

    DVD Review HTF REVIEW: The Fountain

    I got the HD-DVD/SD even though I don't have an HD player just because it was so cheap. that dvd pacific deal was great. less than $20 and it arrived the weekend before the release date.

    Any reviews of The Fountain yet?

    I just read IGN's review and it said the transfer was awful. I'm hoping it's not as bad as they made it out to be (but it was awfully dark in theaters in some scenes). I didn't see any reviews here yet but does anyone know of any on other sites?

    Darren Aronofsky's sci-fi epic "The Fountain" set to go

    Wow! While I love the music by iteself, when combined with the images I think it is just about the most effective score in movie history. But then again I also think it's the best movie of the year hands down and probably of the last 5 years. (and while i thought they were decent i'm not a...

    Darren Aronofsky's sci-fi epic "The Fountain" set to go

    I wouldn't get my hopes up too high for Mar. 6th. seems awfully soon to have no confirming info anywhere online. All the dates i see point to sometime in may. can't wait though.

    2006 Top Ten Lists - Time to Throw Down!

    OK i'll ammend my list to make it a full top 10. I've obviously seen more movies this year I just didn't feel any beyond the first 7 were exceptionally worthy. but I saw the proposition last night so i'll throw that on here as well. My new updated top 10 for 2006 1. The Fountain 2. The...

    The Fountain - Reviews

    I saw this again yesterday and loved it just as much as the first time BUT, once again people left in the middle of the movie. (although it was a $1 theater so they weren't out a lot of cash). What is it about this movie that people dislike so much? Do they just expect something completely...

    PS3 reviews... looking forward to some hands-on comments...

    I don't know how/if this effects blu-ray playback or not but the big news for today is that the PS3 hardware can NOT upconvert 720p to 1080i so games that are made in 720p like resistance of man can only be played in 480p on some TV sets. All major stores around here (columbus OH) have been...

    Lost season 3 discussion....

    The whole pacemaker thing felt wrong to me for some reason. Probably that it was far too obviously fake for this show. Not least of which because 140 is way too low a heart rate if they expected him to do any more rock hauling and it would have definitely been over 140 when the "other" was...

    Lost season 3 discussion....

    Really surprised how many people disliked the episode. I thought it was a great start to a new season. I agree that the commercials seem even worse than last year though. I think possibly they have more frequent shorter commercial breaks now? That really sucks if true.

    Newradio Season 5

    Figured it was about time to start this thread. Any word on a season 5 release date? Let's get this show finished off. I just hope the common thought that with phil hartman's death this season doesn't match up to the first 4 keeps it from getting a timely release. I'll still buy it!

    Family Guy Season 5 =).

    I don't know about video game plans but Family Guy is supposed to be the next Pinball game released by stern. Should be out towards the end of this year. Assuming you have anywhere left to play pinball on location in your area. :frowning:

    Whatever happened to 3001?

    I saw office space in the theater too but looks like I'm going to miss this one since it's not playing anywhere near Columbus and I doubt it will be getting an expanded release after this weekend.

    When will the price of Blu-Ray hardware start to drop?

    I realize the developers have a ton of money invested in this technology but I think you also have to look at the very real possibility that both formats will either die or become niche (laserdisc type) markets without the mass market pricing structures that followed DVD's very successful...

    Let's Share Some Goth

    I saw bauhaus/nin last night and they both put on very good sets although i missed the last 3 songs from bauhaus due to the freezing cold rain (we had lawn seats and had to bolt to cover).
