    Fright Night - questions

    I hate to break it to dvdcompare.net but, the R1 is anamorphic. Even though they'd really like to think that their edition is so superior.

    Question about Beach Blanket Bingo double feature disc

    I just got the Midnite Movies Beach Blanket Bingo/ How To Stuff A Wild Bikini Double feature. And while it says both on the back cover and on the disc itself that it is "Letterbox", the disc plays the second film in full screen. It even has the "modified to fit your screen" disclaimer. If...

    Worst DVD covers!

    There is absolutely nothing wrong with the cover for "Married With Children" season two. Anyway, I'll put in my vote for the recent release of "The Monster Club". The poster art is really nice and compliments the movie very well. Also, Damien: Omen II which makes it look more like a family drama...

    DVD Review HTF Review: The Pink Panther Film Collection

    I found another audio anomally on "Revenge Of The Pink Panther". On the new disc all of the sound effects are missing for the final animated sequence before the end credits.

    DVD Review HTF Review: The Pink Panther Film Collection

    "How does the overall image quality compare?" Except for the cropping, the image quality is improved over the older discs. Especially on "A Shot In The Dark". The only exception being "The Pink Panther Strikes Again". I'm very disappointed in this title. The pre-title sequence looks...

    DVD Review HTF Review: The Pink Panther Film Collection

    I just got this set today and I am very disappointed to see quite a bit of image cropping. Comparing the new discs to my old ones, I see that "Pink Panther Stikes Again" has cropping all around the image, especially during the animated title. "A Shot in the Dark" has slight cropping on the top...

    The Naked Gun Trilogy

    What may I ask is wrong with what we've got? They look great, have 5.1 soundtracks and commentaries. I'm quite happy with my Naked Gun trilogy. There are plenty of films out there that have never gotten any DVD release at all. I'm more interested in getting them out.

    Quick review on 1080i scaling Liteon LVD2001 DVD Player

    I just got this player today and found that after switching to 480p,720p,1080i and then the next one is NTSC CVBS Ypbpr. What is this last setting? To me it seems the sharpest, while 720 and 1080 seem the softest.

    Has anyone else noticed when John Rhys-Davies sings right before Indy throws the date up into the air, The end of the lyrics are missing? He sings all the words on the french track. Maybe I'm just remembering wrong.

    DVD Review HTF Review: Monty Python's The Meaning of Life SE + TRANSFER PROBLEM FEEDBACK

    This disc looks fantastic on my Toshiba sd-3750 with the progressive in auto mode. I can see some very minor alising on about every 5th still frame, but even to see that i need to get up close to my 50inch Toshiba set.

    Let's drop the term "fullscreen" because it hurts the OAR cause!

    I think that the two versions should be called: Theatrical Version (widescreen)and Modified TV Version ("full screen") that would make the most sense.

    Artisan has sunk to a new low

    I just picked up the new Artisan release of "Bride of Re-Animator". Not only is it full screen only but it's also the worst looking piece of crap I have ever seen. When you start the movie you are greeted by the old Vestron Video logo which looks video based and jitters like crazy. The whole...

    Does anyone know the setting for red voltage on a Toshiba 50H82?

    I have a Toshiba 50H82 and it has a red tinge to the right side of the screen. I have heard that this means my red voltage is set too high. Does anybody know what the setting for red voltage is called in the service menu? I would really appreciate it.

    Framing and lack of headroom in Excalibur

    Quote: ------------------------------------------------------------ Also, Warner's DVD of another Boorman classic, DELIVERANCE is badly framed - overmatted, to be precise. It should be 2.40:1, but it is overmatted to somwhere in the region of 2.60-70:1 - GAH! But the transfer is sharp and...

    Does Warner know the difference between 1.75:1 and 1.85:1?

    I also thought that "natural born killers" was cropped on the sides for warners dvd, As well as "Creepshow". But then I realised that every widescreen Warner Laserdisc that I owned was acctually slightly windowboxed on the sides. So it just seemed as though picture information was lost on the...
