    Dukes of Hazzard HDDVD missing S-DVD features???

    I watched the Dukes HD-DVD special features last night and I think some of the deleted scenes from the standard DVD were not ported over. Specifically, I think the alternate ending (that was previously on the S-DVD under the unrated alternate scenes menu) are missing from the unrated alternate...

    Ron's HD DVD Review

    Dan: I called and requested my 1.4 on June 30th from Tosiba. I called the customer support yesterday (7/11) and was told that the new allotment of discs had not yet arrived @ Toshiba, so mine had not been sent to me yet and they couldn't give me an ETA.

    HD-DVD Players?

    Hello All! I'm new to the HD-DVD party discussion, but I do have a question. Other than Toshiba, are there any other companies that will be releasing HD-DVD players in the near future (obviously not Sony - but what about LG, Panasonic, Pioneer)? I see that Samsung and Sony have/will be...

    David Lynch's DUNE--new DVD (merged thread)

    Question: I didn't have any problems playing either version of Dune DVD-18 disc on my player (same with the Frighteners disc recently released). If the disc plays fine, does that mean its okay or do I need to be worried about a delamination (i.e. "Rot") issue sometime in the future...

    LCD vs Projector

    Just a question as to what the folks on here would prefer: If money was no object, would you go with a large LCD screen (1080p) or a projector (1080p) for the ideal HT set-up? Which gives the best picture quality? Just curious.

    DVD Review HTF REVIEW: Elektra: Director's Cut

    With regard to the noise I heard on my DTS track: Its at the chapter change from chapter 15 to chapter 16 (Time 46:49-50). The sound is kinda a quick pop or some kind of noise and its in the music. I listened to the Dolby track at the same place in the movie and the sound distortion was not...

    Edward Scissorhands: Anniversary Edition

    It sounds to me that all of the special features listed are the EXACT same ones from the 10th Anniversay Edition. Below is the description of the 10th Annv. Edition features I cut and pasted from the DVDFile.com review: To celebrate EDWARD SCISSORHANDS 10th anniversary, Fox has created a...

    The Alamo (2004) Director's Cut Question

    I really liked it, but I'm from Texas and into reading its history and therefore probably biased. I did think Dennis Quaid "over-acted" in some of the pre-battle speech scenes.
