    Review your favorite Movie Theater

    I'm not the biggest fan of the entertainment available in Wichita, Kansas but, that said the several Warren theaters that are there are much better than any other theaters I've ever been to anywhere else in the world. They have balconies, large comfortable chairs, state of the art sound...

    Official Oscar Nominations and Discussion Thread

    To this day I think that "Shakespeare in Love" winning over "Saving Private Ryan" had more to do with many of the Academy members disliking or being jealous of Speilberg than it being a better movie. I liked SIL but it was not near the movie "Saving Private Ryan" was and still isn't. to this...

    Nine Inch Nails: Beside You In Time BD

    I agree, and I did see a review on www.hddvd.high-defdigest.com and he gave it a very good review in both picture quality and especially sound quality. I've been a big fan in the past (in fact at one time they owned a house in New Orleans and I've been in it, they had a large claw foot...

    Toshiba HD-XA1 HD DVD Player Wins Sound & Vision Product of the Year Award

    Sometimes when I read a posting that states or repeats something that from my experience just doesn't sound right, do you think it might be someone posting with an agenda in mind? Like when someone posts that his such and such is freezing and stops all of the time and is just not that good of...

    Correct, but you can purchase the XA2 for less than $800 now through Amazon, I believe. And the XA1 for less than $400 and it also has 5.1 analog output.

    refurbished HDA1

    Factory refurbished (factory refurbished is important to note) is just as good as new, maybe better because when the get them back (small problem or just maybe unhappy customer not realizing what they were buying) they go through the unit from top to bottom making sure it is perfect before...

    Toshiba HD-XA1 HD DVD Player Wins Sound & Vision Product of the Year Award

    ou have abad cable?) I also own an XA1 and after the first day or so I don't even notice the long start-up/load time any more (the excellent PQ and SQ more than make up for the slight wait). After loading the firmware update, I've had no stoppages and never have had any stopping because of...

    So why shouldn't I buy the HD-A1

    I had a few problems with disc playback when I first got my Toshiba HD XA1 but, once I installed the firmware updates I've had no problems at all and I rent alot of discs from netflix. My Brother has a HD A1 and he installed the firmware updates and has never had any problems with freezing or...

    Speaker System

    I think a good choice for home theater sound system is the KEF 5.1 systems KHT1005, KHT2005, KHT3005 ( I hope I'm correct on the model numbers). I do know that they are amoung the highest rated Home Theater systems by Cnet reviews. And I've seen them for sale for $500 to $1400 new, and...

    Question

    I just find it hard to believe that he has gotten a new HD-A2 DVD player but only has a 19" CRT to watch it on. Then he states he really wants a Blu-Ray and he'll just sell the HD DVD player in 5 years when he gets a HD Televison to watch or next Christmas when he gets one then. This has...

    Frank Miller's 300 (merged)

    Wow!, I'm going to have to see this one, I loved the 1960 movie when I was young and know I'll really enjoy this version also. The movie looks really stylized and beautifully designed, I know some people will not like that look but, I do so I will probably really like the entire feel and look...

    APOCALYPTO --- Mel Gibson's Latest

    I am not a huge Mel Gibson supporter, I meant by "alleged" that we don't know what he exactly said and what he was apologizing for, for all we know he could have said "Jews don't know how to wear baseball caps and dress crappy" or he could have said all sorts of really biased things. And if...

    APOCALYPTO --- Mel Gibson's Latest

    I was actually referring to the anti-Mel Gibson coalition that tried again to derail any chance one of his movies doing well through a negative media blitz aimed at him personally. Although Disney's media marketing using Mel's name prominately worked very well in this case.

    APOCALYPTO --- Mel Gibson's Latest

    Well, those naysayers in Hollywood have failed again, the movie opened to be number one this weekend. Not as big as his last film but alot more then the haters in Hollywood predicted it could possibly do, they thought after all what is the chance that a movie with a bunch of no names...

    APOCALYPTO --- Mel Gibson's Latest

    Everyone in Hollywood apologizes for everything real or imagined just to stem some bad press at one time or another. What he considers to be anti-semitic remarks might be extremely mild compared to what alot of people would assume to have been said. I don't know his reason to have...

    APOCALYPTO --- Mel Gibson's Latest

    I still do not really believe all the hype about what really happened. I don't see the leap from him being drunk, pulled over and starting to rant about how "the Jews are the source of all the wars" and referring to a female police officer as "Sugar Tits". I don't see any reason anyone...
