All I know is that I don't do any tweaks to the player itself, only to the display. My OLED has separate viewer profiles (that can be individually calibrated) for SDR, HDR, and Dolby Vision that kick in automatically when each encode (am I using that right?) is detected.
But seriously, we...
Hey guys, I apologize for the momentary thread derailment!
Now, I'm REALLY confused because that's actually the OPPOSITE of what I was getting at, LOL. I have the x700 and our machines behave in mighty similar ways. The way I understand it, AUTO detects HDR signals coming from the DISC not...
Let me preface this question with the admission that I MAY not understand exactly what I'm talking about so please bear with me (and if you'd like to forgive me in advance for my potential ignorance that would be sweet, too! :) ) but isn't the 4K disc encoded with HDR? Isn't the HDR encode...
I HATE to get into aguements that pitch the current generation against previous generations BUT (and face it, you KNEW there was a "but" coming) this is everything that's wrong with modern day reviewers raised in a era where their personal opinion about, lterally, everything was given undue...
I realize this is completely off topic and I apologize but I have a real affinity for Edie Adams as she was born in Kingston, PA just a few blocks away from where I was. Just had to give a shout out for the home town girl!! :emoji_heart: :emoji_heart:
I'd go so far as to say that, once you've seen it and registered the opinion that you're not a fan, it really should be the last of it. Relentlessly hammering the point over and over again is not helpful to anyone or anything, in my opinion, and just becomes thread crapping. None of it has...
Though I'm terrifeid at the thought of a 13 year old boy in his own in the city, I realize that New York wasn't the same place then. I'd like to think your adventures were much like Tippy Walker and Merrie Spaeth using the city as their private playground in WORLD OF HENRY ORIENT.
Sandra...
In all honesty, Thomas, I don't think anyone is refering to YOU as a gloater. I certainly wasn't. Not fully embracing the movie or, for that matter, not even liking the movie is completely valid as it's an honest reaction.
There are those who have had the knives out for this release since...
I wouldn't let it get me down, Carlos. There are more than a few people in this thread who are really really invested in the idea that the box office malaise is a direct result of either the quality of the film or the audacity of remaking it in the first place. They think it validates their...
Hear, hear!
I never understood the adulation of Kael at ALL.
As an aside, she hated WSS in 1961. Except for a somewhat muted appreciation of THE HAUNTING, she seemed at times to have a vendetta against Robert Wise. That lady could hold a grudge.
Wasn't the former backstage area also converted into a third theater call the Orleans? They showed borderline adult films with it's own entrance on (I wanna say) 47th street?
That's kind of a to-MAY-to/to-MAH-to situation. Everybody sees things differently and I'm sure we will still be...
Not for nothing, but Crowther was a mean SOB and got it wrong as often as he got it right, lol.
It's not a zero sum game so it doesn't matter what he considers a materpiece because it has nothing whatsoever to do with what he doesn't. I don't mean to accuse you of this but, in my experience...
