    DVD Review HTF Review - Alpha Dog

    This is the only DVD where I had to turn up the brightness all the way up just to be able to see the night scenes. Even after that it was still dark. I would have liked to have seen what the parents were doing while their son was kidnapped, stuff like talking to cops, handing out fliers or...

    Columbia TriStar Television Inc. Shows that need release

    Still waiting for season 3 of The Flying Nun. I just hope that the delay is due to getting some of the actors together for featurettes. I already own the first 2 seasons and was fully expecting this to have been released by now.

    Happy Days, Laverne & Shirley and Mork & Mindy - Season 2

    I just went through the complete episode guide for Happy Days at tv.com. Penny Marshall & Cindy Williams appeared in 6 episodes of Happy Days as Laverne & Shirley. Most were in Season 4. L&S Appearances in Happy Days: Season 4: A Date with Fonzie Happy Days 2nd Anniversary Special...

    Happy Days, Laverne & Shirley and Mork & Mindy - Season 2

    Yes, the Mrs. Babbish music # is cut from the Christmas episode. I think when TV Land aired the show that episode had the Babbish song included. So it looks like I'll have to dub that episode to DVD anyways. What are the epsiodes where the music has been changed or Carmine's singing was...

    If you're recording VHS tapes to DVD, what's the best speed?

    I bought a replacement DVD recorder for the one that went out on me, and I have lots of VHS tapes I would like to copy to DVD. What would be the best speed to record the DVD at? I don't want to waste space on the disc recording at a faster speed, if it's not really necessary. I guess what...

    My DVD recorder is acting up, please help

    Update: I disconnected it from the power for several hours and then plugged it back in. Now it won't power up at all. Seems like it may have something to do with the power supply. Any ideas?

    How to reglue plastic holders in a case?

    I just received a DVD where the plastic holders that hold the dvd's have come detached from the paper case. It's the Smallville style case that's sort of book-like. I don't want to damage the paper with too strong of a glue or a glue that might bleed through. Thanks for your help.

    DVD Review HTF REVIEW: CARS - HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!

    The concept reminds me of that old cartoon that I remember from my childhood about a little blue car and it's different owners throughout it's life. "Susie the Little Blue Coupe" from Disney was it's title. As for the Cars DVD, it'll have to wait because I'm saving up my money to get...

    X3: X-Men The Last Stand DVD review

    I just got the order from Wal-Mart.com in the mail today. I ordered the one with the exclusive DVD. I opened up the Bonus case and found that instead of the Bonus DVD I actually received another copy of the movie itself. The movie in the Bonus case has just the 13 deleted scenes. So...

    Warning: "X-Men: The Last Stand" Wal-Mart bonus disc

    I just got this from Wal-Mart.com and the strange thing is that instead of getting the exclusive bonus DVD I got another copy of X-Men 3. And one has 10 deleted scenes and the other has about 21. Very strange indeed. But what do I do know? I'll probably just sell the one copy to a friend.

    Star Wars discussion from The Bits...

    Just got done watching Star Wars and am happy with it. The video is a little soft at times, but is on par with the old LaserDiscs I still have. The only reason I bought these was to replace the old LD's and obviously don't have to flip them over 1/2 hour or so. It's nice to be able to watch them...

    A few thoughts about....THE TOWERING INFERNO SPECIAL EDITION (with Photos)

    Just got mine today. As stated they come in Keep case that slides into a paper sleeve. The sleeve has 3-D artwork. It's a rather tight fit to get the case back into the sleeve. I haven't watched anything yet, but can confirm that it comes with both the Lobby Cards and the booklet...

    Worst DVD covers!

    No you're not the only one who gets annoyed by actors faces not matching their names. If you don't know who the actors are you assume who is whom by the names above their pics. Like the Edison Force cover. You would assume that Morgan Freeman is the young white kid on the left, LL Cool...

    Questions about straight to DVD titles

    Anybody know of a site that lists all the straight to DVD titles that have been released. And do straight to DVD titles have extras or are they basically just the movie? Or is it a title by title situation that determines any extras?
