    Marvel Cinematic Universe Phase 2 Blu-ray

    So I was searching for the phase 2 Blu-ray to add to my collection and found a set being sold for $90 Canadian. I messaged the person and he said it's being released in November. I can't find anything online about this anywhere. Has anyone heard anything about this?

    Rogue One: A Star Wars Story (2016)

    Yeah, I figured that would be the only one needed. I would love to show Empire to him at least. Has anyone heard the score for the movie or when it's coming out?

    Rogue One: A Star Wars Story (2016)

    I just showed my 7 year old stepson Episode IV on the weekend. Do you guys think he should see some more of the movies before watching Rogue One?

    Star Trek Beyond (2016)

    I just watched it last night. As a long time Trek fan, I loved it more than Into Darkness. A lot more character moments that I enjoyed and like many have said, it felt like a Star Trek episode. I have to admit I teared up at the end seeing TOS prime crew. Knowing that Nimoy, Kelley, and Doohan...

    Theatrical Captain America: Civil War (2016)

    Meanwhile, I had someone at my work say that X-Men Apocalypse was better than Civil War, and the new Ninja Turtles also. I think I'll stop listening to their opinion on movies now.

    Official 2016 Oscar Nominations and Discussion Thread

    I'm really hoping Room wins Best Picture after seeing it at TIFF, but I think there's very little chance of that happening. Also, is there anyway to participate in the chat on your phone? I can't seem to find a way to get it working.

    10 years of movie tracking! :)

    I've kept my movie tickets since I started going in 1995. I'm nowhere near 1033, but I'm nearing 300 I believe. I actually log the first time I see a movie in a theatre, year I've seen it, and who I saw it with. I've seen most of the movies by myself. I don't know why people don't do this!

    Supergirl (CBS)

    My biggest problem with this show is the same with all the other DC shows, no connection (as far as I'm aware) to their new movie universe. It makes me feel, what's the point of watching if it has no overarching link to the big picture? I guess the MCU has spoiled me with that.

    Assigned seating in movie theaters

    Most theatres here have both and I would always choose the reserved for a big showing, like an opening weekend premiere. I think the advantage of having a guaranteed seat and not needing to line up, would outweigh the disadvantages mentioned earlier in the thread. Also, an hour before the...

    THOSE ANNOYING MOBILES USED IN CINEMAS

    I'm looking forward to the Avengers next week, but may lose it on someone if they pull out their phone to text their friend. Enough already, enjoy the moment!

    Assigned seating in movie theaters

    I love having reserved seating. It saves so much time that instead of waiting in line hours before watching, say, Age of Ultron, I bought my 3 tickets last week. All I have to do is just show up 15 minutes before the movie starts. I've been reading some people say that they're not a fan, here...

    Movie Theatre Etiquette

    We definitely are living in a 'Me first' society. I can't understand how oblivious some people are of others around them, but I don't think they actually care. With the rise of social media, people have a greater sense of self importance that they need to always be connected, and scoff at the...

    Movie Theatre Etiquette

    So, two weeks in a row now I've seen movies on a Friday night (Wild and The Imitation Game). Two weeks in a row I've had people go on their phones in the theatre to either text, check a notification, or even look up the movie they're watching. I'm getting pretty annoyed and frustrated that...

    X-Men: Day of Future Past - Reviews/Discussion

    I just saw it Thursday night. Quite a treat to see an X-Men movie again with some of the old cast. Really good film with tension mounting towards the end. There is a scene post credits so stick around!

    The Dark Knight Rises (2012)

    First things first, loved the movie and can't wait to see it again! Will say more later as it's late and I'm tired, but where exactly was this prison of no hope? Just outside Gotham? A long ways away? I was a little confused about that.

    The Avengers (2012)

    I think that was the most fun I had watching a movie in a long time. Absolutely loved just about every scene with the Hulk. The Hulk/Loki scene was definitely the best part of the movie! Everybody just lost it at that point. Anyone know what Hulk actually said after he smashed Loki? I can't...

    The Avengers (2012)

    I went on movietickets.com and all I could find was one in a suburb. I live in Toronto, and as of now, I can't find ANYTHING besides that one theatre outside of the city that isn't showing it in 3D. My only thinking is that the other major theatres haven't put up that they're showing it in 2D...

    The Avengers (2012)

    So the only way to see the movie is in 3D and that was done in post-production? That kind of sucks. The movie will still be awesome, but boo to lack of choices.

    Official Oscar Nomination Thread

    Maybe it's because I've only seen a handful of the movies up for awards this year but I'm nowhere near as excited or intrigued as previous years. Someone mentioned on Twitter that the Oscars have become an Art House/Indie film thing and while I don't necessarily agree with that, I can see where...

    The official 83rd Academy Awards Nomination and Predictions Thread

    Here's hoping Inception wins Best Picture but I'm going to say The King's Speech takes it. As for the other categories. Best Actor - Colin Firth Best Actress - Anette Benning Supporting Actor - Christian Bale Supporting Actress - Melissa Leo Director - David Fincher All subject...

    Pioneer VSX-1019 Question

    Yeah I didn't want to spend too much money on new speakers as well. I figured since I already have six speakers, I didn't want to get a receiver that was only capable of 5.1. As long as I can properly calibrate the speakers so that it doesn't kill them I suppose I'll be fine for now. Thanks...

    Pioneer VSX-1019 Question

    The speakers were from the Sony DDW870 which speakers are small but pretty good. I'm not sure how that would rate on the low to high end since I don't have a lot to reference from but a few of my friends' speakers. If I don't crank it as loud I'm thinking it won't damage them. Is there a...

    Pioneer VSX-1019 Question

    So up here in Canada we have Boxing Day the day after Christmas and that usually encompasses good deals so I decided to upgrade my receiver and got the Pioneer VSX-1019 which has 7.1 capabilities and is about 840 watts of power. Now my old surround sound was a 6.1 home theatre in a box with...

    2008 at the Box Office

    I don't know if it's just me but I'm not completely excited about seeing a lot of the movies that are out this year at this time. Last year, I couldn't wait to see most of the movies but this year I'm just not getting any excitement for a Frost/Nixon or a Doubt. Anyone else feel like this?

    DVD Review HTF DVD REVIEW: The Dark Knight: Two-Disc Special Edition

    So should we all just wait for a Double Dip in the future if we aren't buying the Blu-Ray or if we want the movie should we just settle for this?

    Honestly, what's the point?

    I've had at least 2 bad experiences in the last few years at theatres but they won't exactly put me off from going to see movies in the cinema. Even though it IS $12 in my parts. I remember when seeing There Will Be Blood back in January at an AMC and for some reason, some of the lights were...

    The Dark Knight (2008)

    Somebody said a few posts above that it's not the GREATEST FREAKIN MOVIE EVER...well at least yet. To me, it was since there was just so much to it. On my way home, I couldn't just help but think about the things that were so interesting but you don't even think about it til after. This is...

    Bond 22 (Title TBD) is now Quantum of Solace

    Nobody Does It Better has to be the best of the Bond themes. But I have to say that On Her Majesty's Secret Service has completely grown on me as I recently started watching all the Bond movies before Quantum. The synthesizers used and all that other stuff, make it quite unique. Goldfinger...

    Casino Royale (2006) on 3/13/07

    I can't remember for sure but I know I bombarded myself with that song before seeing it and I thought for sure I would've noticed the difference right away. Also, the song in the music video has changed which is another reason why I believe it's changed. The differences between the two are...

    Casino Royale (2006) on 3/13/07

    Did anybody else notice that the Chris Cornell song at the beginning and the end of the movie is different on the DVD then it was in the movie?
