RE: re rat race
Actually it shows as
"Availability: Temporarily out of stock.
This title will be shipped as soon as it arrives."
So looks like they`ve received and shipped their initial stock. American Pie 2 was shipped similarly early.
RE: Best Music sequence?
Star Wars Episode 1 - DarthMaul vs Qui gon & Obi Wan with Duel of the fates further adding to the arousal.
Titanic - when it snaps in 2 then finally sinks.
Gladiator - The huge opening battle.
(Not on DVD yet - Lord of the Rings - Gandalf standing off against Balrog)
There`s plenty more where they came from but some of the most memorable for me :)
RE: Buffy on Sky One last night
Likwise the transimission was in all sorts of problems for the last 10 minutes. I quite enjoyed the episodes though and with regards to brining Buffy back being a p*** take all I know is that there are some very interesting results of said resurection to be seen in later episodes.
RE: DTS is nothing more than a marketing gimmick - discuss :)
On discs with both DD5.1 and DTS soundtracks you typically need to select your preference in an Audio menu from the Disc`s main menu.
RE: DTS is nothing more than a marketing gimmick - discuss :)
Well like all quality issues it`s probably a disc by disc thing.
Whilst not having actually compared a large number of discs which contain both DTS and DD5.1 I do remember being extremely impressed by the sound on the DTS release of Daylight, compared to the DD5.1 release it was like a different soundtrack.
RE: Buffy Season 2 picture quality
Check out the region 2 Farscape DVDs for a lesson on TV show quality :)
RE: 100 Hz v 50 Hz
The only problems I know of are to do with games consoles (Playstation, Dreamcast etc). Lightguns won`t work on a 100hz screen and you often see ghosting and extreme blurring on regular games as well.
RE: Wharfedale dvd750 and T2 Ultimate edition R1
I`ve tried this on the Wharfedale and the words never appear, hence then unable to access the extended version. Works fine on the Pioneer DV606 though so I do know how to do it.
RE: Connecting up my system
If it helps Richer sounds were adamant that coax was the best solution.
RE: Children`s Cartoon from the late 80`s...
I think you`ll find that it was called "Lonestar"

RE: LOL @ Deep Blue Sea Reviews

RE: Star Trek First Contact
f***ing hell, and I thought I was the anorak.
Yep, it was number 8, I am an arse. Shall make more of an effort to ommit data that I could get wrong in future :)
