The Steel Book is a great Addition
on December 5, 2016
Posted by: cwglindn

Verified Purchase:Yes
This is not fully a review of the movie itself, which is better covered at other websites, but of the Steel book Blu-ray with DVD and digital copy. I really enjoy this movie and for the third movie the cast is really coming into their own as an ensemble.
The steel book is attractive, although it is starting to fill my shelf. It included the Bluray which is amazing on my HD 4K tv and also on DVD which I don't know why it still is included, when there is the digital copy. I was able to use the digital copy on Ultraviolet and it is the HD version which is also great if you go digital in your collection.

After discovering an ancient mystery, Lara Croft must travel through Siberia in Rise of the Tomb Raider. Outstanding action, beautiful environments, guerrilla warfare and incredible tombs are all yours for the taking in this third person adventure. Outthink the Trinity and hone your survival skills in Rise of the Tomb Raider.

Finally on PS4

The wait is over for Rise of the Tomb Raider on PS4. It comes in a slick steel book with great art through out. The game play is awesome. I do not have the experience yet to give a full game review but all reviews to date on the expert sites indicate this is a great reboot of the franchise.

Very funny British Comedy
on August 25, 2016
Posted by: cwglindn
from Tucson, AZ
Verified Purchase:Yes
I am not fully reviewing this movie, but mainly the blu-ray. This movie is from the makers of Shaun of the Dead and Hot Fuzz which if you liked this movie or liked those other movies then this is in the same vein of adult oriented over the top humor. I'm sure teen boys and men will enjoy this movie about getting to the next pint of beer.
Hit IMDB or Rotten Tomatoes for a better review and trailers.
This Bluray came with a digital download and a DVD. It was well packed with extras and met my needs. It was on sale which means it might come up again. My only note is that after I bought it a Bluray collection of Shaun of the Dead, Hot Fuzz and The World's End also went on sale at Best Buy. So check on that other item if you want. No DVD in that version.

Very Mature Hero Movie: No Children.
on July 27, 2016
Posted by: cwglindn
from Tucson, AZ
Verified Purchase:Yes
This is a Marvel Cinematic Universe movie, but it is in no way for children, unless you want to poison their minds. But it is full of teen male, sensual and lowbrow humor, They really nailed Deadpool from the comics and this blu-ray contains many extras, that I just kept going through. Definitely get this if you like MCU AND if you can take mature humor. (wow, my first attempt at a review got nixed for saying se+ual)

Excellent Addition to the Bond Series

If you have not seen the latest Bond, it is a must see. Brings back the international travel and large scale scenes.
Overall the blu-ray was a good transfer with Digital copy for viewing anywhere.

This release compiles each of the twenty-two installment from the first season of the ABC fantasy series Once Upon a Time, a series that focused on a strange small town populated by fairy tale characters.

Disney comes to Life in our times
on November 7, 2015
Posted by: cwglindn
from Tucson, AZ
Verified Purchase:Yes
This is the captivating series that is very family friendly and holds your attention. Every episode links the characters and sets the stage for more and more thrills. I love the extras, but the box does not tell you what extras are on what disc so you have to search. Also I took a star because Disney/ABC does not give a digital download code for these expensive discs. or at least any disney movie rewards points.

The second season of Once Upon A Time begins as the citizens of Storybrooke, now equipped with the memories of their fairytale pasts, adjust to life following the breaking of Regina's curse. Regina continues to struggle with her own moral code and her relationship with Henry, both of which are tested with the arrival of her duplicitous mother, Cora. Snow and Charming worry that they are destined to be apart, while Emma finds a formidable enemy in Captain Hook, who is intent on revenge against Rumplestiltskin. Elsewhere, Rumplestiltskin has his own problems to contend with, including his relationship with Belle, and his desperate desire to find his long, lost son, Baelfire.

A great family and disney series on DVD

Verified Purchase:Yes
The second season continues to develop the characters from disney classics in the present day of Storybrooke. every episode ends with some sort of teaser or cliff hanger and it is hard to not want to stay up all night to watch. A great family series. I took one star because I think it is rotten of ABC/Disney not to include a digital download version on these expensive series.

NOT SACD, it is the K2HD version.
on November 7, 2015
Posted by: cwglindn
from Tucson, AZ
Verified Purchase:Yes
I bought this with high hopes it would be the out of print SACD version of this ultimate rock classic. BUT it is not the SACD so it loses a star for inaccuracy. It is a import K2HD print that is probably the best you can get reproduction of this album It is still a good print with very accurate reproduction. It was printed in 2011 and is hard to find. It is listed elsewhere for 2x as much. This does play on CD players the K2HD format applies to the mastering of a standard CD. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/K2_High_Definition

Nice High Def version of the James Cagney classic. Bonus content with documentary and cartoon shorts and trailers make this a cool tip to the prohibition era gangsters and the times. Recommended.

As a child you played with wooden or plastic blocks to create what you saw in the world around you — a house, a car, a bridge, a cement mixer. In high school, you built lamps, signs and more in shop class. You've also constructed full worlds, filled with realistic people simulating real life. Now, you can go back to your childish roots and build with blocks again — but this time they're virtual blocks, and create vibrant, 3D worlds that are filled with adventure and the magic of imagination.Get ready to build whatever pops into your mind when you jump into the 3D, eight-bit worlds of Minecraft. Grab your Xbox 360 controller, and start constructing any world that you can think of with the easy-to-use building blocks. Explore other worlds to go on thrilling adventures, and gain inspiration for your own creations. Battle dangerous monsters that come out at night — and be sure to make a shelter to protect yourself when the sun goes down. Are you ready to build the world of your dreams in nostalgic, eight-bit fashion?

Create worlds and pay against others. This game allows you to extend your creative pallet to create your own world or join others online. You will need X-box live purchased separately to join others. But a great game.

if I purchase a tv from some where else, will geek squad come out and mount it?

I think it might depend on your area. But call the local store. A friend of mine had his TV mounted by Geek Squad and it was not bought at Best Buy

is there a charge for using hulu or other streaming sites

For most streaming sites there is a charge. and you will have to sign-in, and they often offer a trial for a specific period of time or a 'non-premium' membership so that you can see what is available. If you can join a site without a monthly fee then a lot of the streaming sites have free content that vary time to time. Check each site to see if there is a free trial or a non-premium method to join.

Can someone explain the difference in dvd formats ?

What is meant by Pan and Scan ?
What is meant by Subtitle AC3 Dolby ?
What is meant by Widescreen AC3 DTS ?
I know what widescreen refers to ----- BUT --- AC 3 ? --- DTS ? ---- Pan and Scan ---- Subtitle AC3 Dolby ?
Pan and scan= the picture is NOT wide screen and is square. Most videos now are in wide screen as they were originally filmed so pan and scan removes the sides of the video so it would fit on older tube televisions. There are the occasional movies that were filmed in a square format and there fore are presented as originally scene. Generally Pan and Scan means less.

Subtitle=has subtitle options available for the DVD player to access thru the dvd menu.

AC3, DTS and Dolby are sound types for surround sound. Not an issue if you are using your TV speakers. But you will need a compatible audio receiver and speakers to get surround sound. The best generally is the AC3 surround or DTS surround.

LCD_LED_PLASMA WHATS THE DIFFERENCE

Your best bet is to just look at the screens and see what you like. Most tech is moving toward LED. Here is an detailed article on this issue. http://www.cnet.com/news/led-lcd-vs-plasma-vs-lcd/

Personally I would get a 4K television as best you can afford with 4k video up scaling built in. Your old movies will seem new.

how to cunnect a tv signal to my projector

i have an epson projector and wanted to connect a tv antenna to watch tv on it. is it possible?
Most projectors do not have a digital tv receiver built-in. You will need to attach a digital receiver to your projector to get TV on the screen. The most common method is to use a dvd player with a receiver. In the alternative there are small digital receiver boxes out there still that have video out connections. If the projector has a HDMI or USB video in then I would consider using a Fire or Roku or Google stick to plug in to watch stuff over wifi rather than a tv signal.

What's the difference between HDTV & Smart TV?

Smart TV's are like Smart phones, they have upgraded features and the ability to play apps and integrate with the internet. Some have full operating systems.

HDTV is high definition. HD is 720p to 1080p resolution. Newer TVs are UHD or 4K which are 2160p resolution. Currently 1080p is the bare minimum, I would prefer a high end 1080p to a low end 2160p tv. But if you can stretch it try to get a name brand 2160p (UHD 4K) tv
