This is not a discussion of what a person can or cannot afford. Or what is or is not available to them at this partcular time. I really don't care if someone shares internet service with 4 other people. It's a discussion of whether blu-ray discs are worth the extra money. I say no, since there...
The HDX as used by Vudu requires extremely fast internet. I had to perfom a test with Vudu to see if my internet could handle it. The picture is better than any other streaming I have seen. No artifacts, no inconsistant quality as on Netflix. I'm watching this on a 40-inch flat screen, and I...
The future absolutely is streaming. I just wathed Grease streamed on Vudu in HDX (their highest quality) and I defy anyone to tell the difference between Blu-Ray and ths download. This was their 99 cent rental of the day. No going to a rental store, no mechanics to adjust. In the future you are...
When Blu-Ray is good, it looks terrific. I've seen some that are mediocre at best. I have 2 Blu-Ray players and not every Blu-Ray will play on every Blu-Ray machine, as I found out when I took some out of the library. And I don't care to go through "updates" on one of my machines every time a...
Mill Creek has just inked a deal with Sony Pictures to re-issue Sony Properties that have been previously released. This supposedly includes Bewitched, I Dream of Jeannie, Charlie's Angels, The Love Boat and more, including many feature films. From what I read on TV Shows On DVD, this would not...
My name is Leslie Eckhardt. No, I'm a guy. I was given this handle by my Mother, who supposedly named me after a friend of my Grandfather's. I was born in Chicago and lived there all my life until July, 2012, when my partner and I decided to get away from the crime and shootings that had become...
As I recall, Love, American Style went into network daytime reruns at some point. The original hour-long shows were re-edited into half-hours and they ran in that format for several years. The unsuccessful TV version of Barefoot In The Park was also included in this package. The first season may...
Shout! probably would have finished Mister Ed if their relationship with Fox, the supplying company hadn't reportedly gone south. I understand that Fox asked for notably higher prices for Peyton Place from Shout! that they were not prepared to pay, resulting in the stalling of that series. It's...
It indeed seems that Shout! Factory is taking a new direction in what it plans for the future. The Scream! division will have a broader appeal to a younger audience. When you don't see any activity on a series like Hazel, which had three releases in 2012, you have to wonder if the DVDs had...
