Charlize Theron is a spy for MI-6 at the height of the cold war 1980's. Lots of action and rocking 80's music populate this dark (even physically so) espionage tale. People die, there's nudity, foul language, everything that says don't let someone under 16 watch it. The blu ray transfer looks fantastic and the DTS 7.1 channel master audio soundtrack will give your system a workout with music, gunfire and explosions. Hang on, you're in for a ride with this movie!
This is a 3 disc set of Queen's greatest hits. The sound quality is excellent and there are songs from later albums that are included which you may not ever have heard. For those who remember the classic Night At The Opera and Day At The Races albums, only the few hits are on this set. Much of the early magic was in the entire albums, not just the top 40 tracks. So recommended it is, but as a supplement to the following: Queen, Queen 2, Opera, Races, News Of The World, Jazz, and The Game. There's too much you will miss without these.
Not many arena rock bands put concert videos out of this quality. The songs you want to hear and see are probably included on this blu ray release in 5.1 sound. From "Women" to "Photograph" this songset is outstanding. Def Leppard is older, but still rocks as hard as they did in the 80's.
Fantastic Beasts makes good use of 3D even though it wasn't shot with 3D in mind. Some of the best effects were when Newt's new friend Jacob are in the girls only apartment and the dinner table is being set by magic. Plates and food that Queenie manipulates seem to whiz effortlessly past, and the beasts are no visual slouches either. The Obscurus pulses and roars both visually and audibly, giving the 3D and your receiver ample ammunition to enjoy. In closing, the soundtrack is exacting in intensity and dialogue is crisp and clear. Love 3D still, and you can't do much better than this for yourself and to show your friends what they're missing in the 3D theater experience.
This is Quentin Tarantino's eight movie and he tells you so right in the opening credits. This is set post civil war in the very wild and wintry west. I'll not spoil the story, but the movie is dialogue heavy in the front, but well acted by an all star cast. Yep there's violence. Yep, there's nudity AND violence together. Might not want repeat viewings of this, kind of like a Schindler's list type of film. If you know Tarantino's work, you already know what you're likely to get. Wouldn't let below 14 or so watch it even with their parents.
Star Wars The Force Awakens is a super blu ray release, here in the steelbook edition with Kylo Ren on the cover. Same stuff in the regular blu ray release (DVD plus blu ray plus the making of disc). Video is excellent and the sound can shake the paint off the walls at times. Very nice in the steelbook edition.
The third season of Continuum follows Kiera (Rachel Nichols as she confronts the aftermath of Alec's (Erik Knudsen) betrayal, and finds herself allied with a former enemy.
Continuum season 3 continues the twisted time changes for protector from the future Kira Cameron. Blu ray disc quality is great overall including webisodes, a behind the scenes featurette, and two episodes with audio commentary. 10 episodes plus the extras on 3 blu ray discs.
Home is a great addition to a 3D library of titles. Best Buy had this on sale for 24.95 so for the 3D Blu Ray, Blu Ray, DVD plus the digital download, you really couldn't go wrong. If you wanted to pass on one of the other versions to a child, or grandchild, you'd still have at least 3 others. The 3D depth is good, and the movie is funny and would hold up to repeat viewings.
This PT PT-GS5HK2L kickstand/holster allows you to comfortably view media displayed on your Samsung Galaxy S 5 cell phone's screen and easily transport your phone for multifunction use. The felt liner and face-in design safeguard your phone on the go.
I've used the PT design for the Galaxy S3, and was looking for the same for the S5. The fit is snug and slim, allowing easy access to the S5's Achilles heel: the rather large and difficult charger port. Some may use the holster accessory, but I don't. I seldom drop the phone, but still feel confident that my phone would survive with this case. For those who drop frequently or punish their phones with other types of impacts, you may opt for the Otter box instead. For most of us, the PT design is the best compromise with functionality and protection. Go get one!

What's great about it: Slim design and ease of getting to the charger port
What's not so great: Not quite as protective as the Otter box
Keep your Samsung Galaxy S 5 cell phone safe while you're on the go with this OtterBox Defender Series 42304BBR case, which features a thermal-formed membrane, polycarbonate shell and silicone skin for durability.
The Otter Box does offer outstanding protection for the galaxy S5. The galaxy's new design incorporated a rather large charging port that is difficult to get into to start with. The protective design of the otter box adds about 1/4 inch of thickness that surrounds the phone. This makes the charger port much tougher to get into. If you're prone to dropping your phone, the protection is worth it. If not, there are less costly options that will protect your phone, but not as well.
