I love movies. I always have. But there’s one thing that keeps me from enjoying them as much as most everyone else. I am blind. I can only “watch” movies and TV if my wife is watching with me. Although I can tell a lot about what’s happening onscreen by the audio presentation, I can’t always...
A few sound effects do not make or break a film. That is just ludicrous. In fact, you wouldn't be conflicted in you decision once you got a taste of it. The new blu-ray transfer of Nightmare on Elm Street is fantastic in both picture and sound and blows away all previous video editions. Seeing...

I voted for Howards End on Blu-ray for two reasons, because I love the film and it was the best title of those that were listed. A title like Howards End really benefits from an HD transfer because of the intricate production design and costumes. The cinematography for the film is fantastic and...
