The third volume of the beloved animated series Futurama comes to DVD from 20th Century Fox. Volume three contains 22 complete episodes on four discs, originally broadcast on FOX from 2001 to 2002. Each episode is presented with a standard full-frame transfer and Dolby Digital Surround Sound in English, Spanish, and French. Subtitles are available in English and Spanish and closed captions are also accessible. The box itself is pretty cool, with dual-sided character cutouts and two clear windows to see the inside sleeve artwork. Each disc is held in its own slim Nexpak plastic case. The bonus features start off with full-length audio commentary tracks for each and every episode. Each disc provides ample deleted scenes, storyboards, and still galleries. Disc four offers the most special features. A "How to Draw Characters" segment in the character art gallery creates Fry and Leela. Also, 3-D models show some rough-draft sequences. Animatics are included for "Anthology of Interest II" and alternate animation is provided for "Roswell That Ends Well." In addition, there are international clips featuring French, Italian, and Spanish language casts and a couple of Easter eggs. Overall, this is yet another highly recommended Futurama box set from 20th Century Fox in a series of fine releases.

This season is packed with classic episodes like the one where the crew travels back in time, Bender becomes the new Santa, the Star Trek episode, and more. Had me laughing from the first episode all the way to the last.

It keeps getting better

This is the funniest season yet with episodes like when Stewie and Brian get into the miltary, when Stewie fake marries Olivia, Peter is freaked out by his doctor, and so much more. If you're a fan of this series, this is a must have.

This movie had me dying from beginning to end. I had my reservations at first, but after everybody kept telling me how good it is I figured I'd give it a shot and I was very pleasantly surprised. The music from the old school mixed in with the crazy rides these guys go one is just too much. You have to get this movie.

With a new day comes a new leader for the sixth season, as Wayne Palmer (DB Woodside), brother of former president David Palmer, has taken the reins from the corrupt Charles Logan (Gregory Itzin). But President Palmer has little time to celebrate his election, as America faces yet another grave threat, this one from Islamic terrorist Abu Fayed (Adoni Maropis). By way of introduction, Fayed orders suicide bombings of 10 U.S. cities over a period of 11 weeks. But he's just getting warmed up-before Day 6 comes to a close, the threat goes nuclear. Trying to prevent further bloodshed, as always, is Jack Bauer (Kiefer Sutherland). Out of the frying pan and into the fire, Jack is freed after months of torture in a Chinese prison, only to be handed over to Fayed in exchange for seemingly valuable intel. Tackling the day's dangers on the CTU front are new personnel additions Mike Doyle (Rick Schroder), who replaces the fallen Curtis Manning as director of field operations, and Agent Milo Pressman (Eric Balfour), who has a history of butting heads with his new boss. Day 6 also provides the first glimpse of Jack's blood relatives, his father Phillip (James Cromwell) and brother Graem (Paul McCrane). But it's far from a touching family reunion, as one of Jack's toughest challenges is determining where the other Bauers' loyalties lie. Several new faces make their way to 1600 Pennsylvania Ave., including steely vice president Noah Daniels (Powers Boothe) and presidential advisers Reed Pollock (Chad Lowe) and Thomas Lennox (Peter MacNicol), each of whom has his own agenda. Making a surprise return later in the day are former president Logan, his ex-wife Martha (Jean Smart), and former Secret Service agent Aaron Pierce (Glenn Morshower), all of whom play brief but pivotal roles in the season's developments.

Broken, but not out
on December 8, 2007

from Atlanta, GA
I've always been a hard core fan of this show since season 1 and it always gets better. For the first time Jack is truly a broken down man in the beginning, but serious situations gets him back on track and he's back to the Jack we've known from all the previous seasons. This season is packed with surprises, action, drama, and more (as you'd expect from 24), but it wasn't as good as season 5. Still though, this is a great season and definitely worth the money.
What's great about it: Another great season

Glad the crew came back with a movie featuring the original cast. Still has all the great Futurama humor (although it's sometimes not as good as the actual series) and the animation is still at its best. The movie is just a bit, but other than that it's a good laugh generator especially if you're a Futurama fan.
What's great about it: Funny movie and the original cast is still there
What's not so great: it's a bit long and isn't as funny as the show

Matt Groening's satirical journey into the 30th century gets another fine-tuned presentation on DVD with this boxed-set collection. Futurama, Vol. 4 features 18 episodes from the animated television series, all transferred to disc in the full-frame aspect ratio of 1.33:1. The audio has been mastered in Dolby Digital Surround; along with the original English-language soundtrack, an alternate dubbed Spanish- language version is also included, as well as optional subtitles in English, French, and Spanish. Bonus materials include commentary tracks for all 18 episodes featuring the show's producers, writers, and voice cast; also on board are deleted scenes, storyboards, production artwork, animatics and pencil tests, 3-D modeling, and a guide to drawing the Futurama characters yourself.

This is one of those shows that I can simply watch over and over again, both on TV and on DVD. Volume 4 has some of the funniest episodes from the series that keep you laughing for hours. If you're a Futurama fan, then this is a must have.

Austin Powers: International Man of Mystery features both widescreen and pan-and-scan versions of the film; however, the original theatrical aspect ration of 2.35:1 has been changed by director Jay Roach to a 2:1 aspect ratio, perhaps to better accommodate its widescreen enhancement. The commentary track allows Roach and Mike Myers to tell what is improvised and what is scripted in the film, specifically to point out the different inspirations and homages, and joke around some as well. The deleted scene menu features two original endings and five scenes that were either cut for time or because they were expendable. One of the original endings is particularly hilarious and at least two of the deleted scenes ("The Henchman's Wife" and "Fendi Briefcase") could have been left in the film. The "Spy Genre Retrospective" is disappointing, just a series of pages to read about the movies that inspired the film instead of a featurette. Meanwhile, the animated "Music to Shag To" sequence, a celebrity cameo menu, and the "Swedish-Made Penis Enlarger Pump" features aren't exactly substantial but do add to the zany feel of the DVD. The theatrical trailer is also included. Austin Powers can't compete with current special editions, but it is nonetheless a fun disc for an enjoyable film.

One of the Austin classics. I recently purchased this one just from browsing the BestBuy site and forgot how funny this movie is, but watching it again definitely reminded me of why Austin was so groovy in the first place. Great movie

Create, capture, edit and archive home movies and digital photos, while storing and accessing data from one DVD RW disc. A perfect companion to your DVD Handycam camcorder, the 3DPW30R2H 8cm DVD RW rewritable discs capture all digital data brilliantly, and are large enough to hold oversized digital movie files. Store up to 1.4 GB of information or 30 minutes of video. These DVDs feature AccuCORE technology which is 100x more scratch resistant than standard discs.

Good, but could have been better

This is a good movie, but you can tell it was catered to Bruce's aging limits as there wasn't a whole lot of the classic hands on action stunts where he's being thrown all over the place, but was slowed down to more of a dialogue "let's think things out first" kind of vibe. Still provides for lots of fun, but the previous Die Hards are better.
What's great about it: Loads of action
What's not so great: Bruce was clearly too old for another Die Hard
I would recommend this to a friend!

CAN'T GET PS3 TO WORK ON MY HUGHESNET INTERNET FOR GAMING

Unfortunately, the news won't be good for your situation. Hughesnet is a satellite ISP, which means that the signal has to travel all the way from earth to space and then back again. Because of this, there is a VERY noticeable lag time and you can't get "real-time online gaming". Basically, any game you try to play online on PS3, Xbox, or PC won't play correctly due to that lag time. If you're able to swich to a local ISP through DSL or cable high speed Internet, then you'll be good to go. Otherwise, with Hughesnet you're going to ge stuck with playing games offline. Sorry for the bad news.

Will Upconvert dvd player play blueray disk?

I have a visio 32 lcd hd 1080p tv and a upconvert dvd player. Will blue ray disk play on the player?
Unfortunately not. Upconvert DVD players can only upconvert regular DVDs to try and get close to HD quality resolution, but not 100%. For blu-ray discs playback, you'll need to buy a stand alone blu-ray player or Playstation 3. There's many stand alone blu-ray players for under $200 that play great nowa days. I recently purchased the Sony BDP-S360 blu-ray player on a really good sale and it plays both DVDs and blu-ray disc with no problems for well under $200.

should i get gh5 or lego rock band for my first game

I would definitely go with Guitar Hero 5 instead of Lego Rock Band. Even though Lego Rock Band isn't out yet, that whole line of Lego games just gets old fast. GH5 however is already out and has proven itself to be a very good game with high ratings all around. Don't forget that the Guitra Hero series also has a pretty good track record for fun downloadable content, which I can't say the same for those Lego games.
