    Alright, I decided to connect our very very old Antenna that's still mounted to the top of our house from the old days when we didnt have any cable way back in the 80's and WOW!! my Hitatchi has a built in HD tuner and at first nothing was coming out clear, just noise and little picture. I then...

    Whats the use of getting HDTV?

    Good points to all. Yes regular DVD viewing is greatly improved. I did buy a HD-upconvert player so I'm still satisfied. For the free over the air broadcast, is that had with those 70-90 dollar HD attenas that you can buy at best Buy and get your local channels on? The ones that are by NBC...

    Whats the use of getting HDTV?

    I screwed up. I went out and bought me a nice Plasma TV because I wanted to jump into HDTV and my old Toshiba 32" wasnt cutting it for widescreen movies :) So I spend a crap load of money buying a plasma, HDMI cables, mounting hardwared, getting my DirecTV HD package, etc. BUT! HD...

    Not happy with a lot TV's out right now

    I know HD can produce awesome picture but whenever I go to locals areas to try and decide I'm never happy with ANY OF THEM. For some reason the image looks LESS real than a standard tv. I'm a intermediate photographer, so the best way I can describe what I see on screen is a AIRBRUSHING picture...

    King Kong (2005)

    I think people just let technicalities get in the way of enjoying a good film. I loved LOTR, but if I was as picky as a lot of you here in terms of technicalities it would be the most crappy movie I've seen. There were soooo many CGI flaws in LOTR, specifically with wide action shots of...

    King Kong (2005)

    I thought King Kong was a very good movie. The only thing that bothered me about it was the sub story of the boy jimmy. They seemed to have focused on him a lot with no pay off at the end. Also I think the movie really really set a great relationship between kong and Anne. Way better than...

    Sub to match JBL S-Series

    Hey guys. My JBL PB12 has gone to crap. The AMP seems to turn on and off real fast at lower volumes. If I crank it up it stays on every now and then. It never did it before so I'm already planning its replacement. The room it will be in is 22'L x 12'w x 8'H . I'm looking at possibly SVS subs...

    Resident Evil Apocalypse reviews?

    I saw this movie and not being much of a RE fan I guess helped me like it a tad bit more. But I agree, how did the dead contract the T-Virus? The only thing my cousin and I came up with were the WORMS inside :) had the virus LOL and made the corpse move LOL... Aside from that, I found...
