We watched our copy on Friday evening and we very pleased with the quality of picture and sound. We still have our older plain dvd, and will likely keep it -- but we have to play it through our DVR player and so the sound isn't as nice. This is one of our favorite musicals, and it's a total...
Sure would love to see all of WKRP on DVD/blu-ray. Also Newhart where the Loudon's own the inn.
Reading that Shout! is bringing out many older releases is disheartening to me as they hardly ever adds CC/sub-titles. Their email to me stated (in part):
I wrote back and told them they'd lost...
LOL! The same could be said for my area of the coast. Dishners has a web site and it looked okay. I'll let you know what we discover on our trip (won't be until fall so don't hold your breath!) Oh, web site: http://dishnersrestaurant.com/index.htm
We drink a caffeine blend here: 1/2 reg. and...
Coos Bay is a few hours south of me. Nice area, but warmer than my area. The drive up the CA coast and then up the Oregon coast is a definite treasure!
Dishner's, eh? We're planning a vacation and we were going to head east at Reedsport, but maybe we'll go to Coos Bay instead, stay the night...
We buy Peet's coffee (already ground) and use it in our AeroPress. Wonderful coffee. I also have a Krup's 12C brewer that we use when we have company, and hubby prefers to use it on the mornings when he's first up. If he's making the coffee and toast, I don't complain - just enjoy. :D
Sweet! Placed our preorder. Hubby can give it to me as a birthday gift. I still remember the date with hubby when we saw this — packed theater, everyone totally into the movie, cheers and applause at "the" moment and applause at the end. To this day I will not go wading in the ocean here. :D
TV is a Sony KDF-E42A10/50A10 LCD Projection TV HD-TV
Blu-ray: Panasonic DMP-BDT110
The TV does have a "normal" setting, and that's when it cut off the sides of the movie. If we go to "wide zoom", it cuts off the top and bottom of the picture and stretches the picture itself. Those are the...
Okay, must admit I'm not technical enough to understand all the numbers. What I meant was that on our TV, if we select "wide zoom", it cuts off the top and bottom of the picture and stretches the picture itself. If we opt for "normal", the movie fills the screen all the way around (no black band...
We purchased this following the link and sat down to watch it last night and we were surprised to find that Amazon had sent us the blu-ray from Jan 23, 2007 (see link below). The 2007 release is full screen (apparently) and we were most disappointed. I'm in the process of discussing this with...
On growing older, from “If You Ask Me: (And of Course, You Won’t)” by Betty White: “It’s not a surprise, we knew it was coming—make the most of it.” "The trouble with quotations on the Internet is that it's difficult to discern whether or not they are genuine." -- Abraham Lincoln
Finished my "Burglar Bernie" book, and read another Nero Wolfe and now I'm reading "Into Thin Air" by Jon Krakauer. Difficult to read knowing the ending.
Adore this movie (and we also owned it on laser and now on DVD). I'd love to have it in blu-ray, but it's a bit pricey ($16.99) for us at the moment. Also, it doesn't state if there are either English sub-titles or CC. Those of you who have a copy of the blu-ray, can you tell me if it does have...
Well, gee ... if that means they'll put the closed-captions in (they are there on the old DVD), and take out the color - then I'm all for a delay. :rolleyes: :D Color? Seriously? At the Amazon site it says:
Until they add the CC back in and remove the color, this is a non-buy for us.
Thank you for the art work! I've never seen this before. Agree that this is a perfect film. My absolute favorite movie of all time.
Not sure if I should thank you or not. :D
The real author is "under wraps", but it's a great promotional gimmick. If you look at Amazon, you'll see Fillion's picture shown for the author, and I understand that at Comic Con he signed books as himself and Castle. :D
The books are based on the show, sort of. They read as though they are...
Oh gads, I love to read, but this year has been a bit of a disappointment, as I've had a lot of books that I set aside.
I'll start with the only 5-star read: “Bridge of Scarlett Leaves” by Kristina McMorris. Fantastic writer. She also wrote "Letters From Home", and that made my top reads list...
We tend to fast-forward through the artsy-fartsy bits in musicals if they stop the story. I'm sure they had a reason for adding them in all these films, but they bore the heck out of us. ;)
Question: when you speak of a "2-disc SE" is this for Seven Brides ...? If so, is there a link from here to purchase so that HTF gets credit? As to musicals, we own a big bunch on DVD. No let me back up, we owned just about every musical (even a few stinkers) on laser disc. Then our player died...
