OK as a prequal. 3D helps.

The 3D is excellent. Even though the movie is overlong it is still worth a look as it fits into another point in the saga of the "alien" species. Looking forward to the movies that come.

3D adds so much to this film. It still looks good in 2D however, as a 3D fan, this was great. I had my 13 year old daughter watch it with me and even this grumpy teen liked it. I mean an "It's OK" review is a rave from a teen, right?

I tried this in all the recommended configuration on two different HD TVs with the same results. Some channels came in some did not, but only a few channels duplicated on both TVs. Going to go for an external antenna next.

Excellent Hertzog Film

I was disappointed that one of my favorite pictures from the original was not included in this Blu-ray. There was a bear skull sitting on a ledge in the cave and a stalactite had formed over the side of it. The years that it must have taken for that to happen always impressed me. Still. The 3D was great and nothing was lost from the absence of this one picture.

I was a bit concerned in that I never knew if the original Arnold movie was shot in 3D. If not this was the first conversion to 3D I have seen. Still holds up after all this time. The 3D is good. The price was right.

I purchased two of these active 3D glasses because I knew that the little batteries that came with my 3DTV would not last. Another plus were the rechargeable aspect. So far, both glasses have held up.

Very disappointed. I mean the acting was OK and the Cinemaphotography was above par, but all of that really needed a plot to hang on which was not there. I bought it because I had a new HD TV, the actor and this blu ray was cheap.

To see "Faeiramir" from Lord of Rings again was excellent. The CGI was excellent. Fearless disregard of physics in most all action sequences - ships on the water, great blood splattering, good storyboarding to picture helped keep the plot in line.

Along with Streets of Fire this movie is favorite guilty pleasure of mine. Since Midnight movies generally show what is on the current bill only at midnight. I do miss the cat calls and audience comments. Still. A good run through the streets, parks and subways of NYC.

What's great about it: Besides the movie itself, the interviews with the cast's rememberences enhanced the entaire DVD.
What's not so great: Only the dicrector's cut. It would have been nice to have the original theatricla release as a comparison.

Can you record only bits and pieces of different vhs tapes to a dvd?
I have several videos of my daughter growing up and at various events/competitions. I want to transfer from vhs to dvd only the parts including her. I would like to prepare one video on dvd for her wedding reception.
Yes. However. I think this can only be done in DVD+R recording mode since you will be swapping out tapes to get to the desire sections. I would suggest having the VHS tapes set to the desired locations before starting to avoid searching in the middle of a recording session. Another suggestion would be to construct a single VHS tape with the various events and then covert that tape over to DVD. Of course that would require a second VHS recorder. Good luck.

Can I recored movies off of my TV
Want to record some of the pay for view movies we buy can this recorder do it?
It is easier if you have a DVR. Then transfer the recording through "out" to DVD/VHS "in". The quality will not be as good, I'm afraid.

What is the difference between DVR620 and DVR620KU
DVR620 is the model # Best Buy sells on-line. DVR620KU is the model # in store. Two different Best Buy employees (in store) told me a converter box is not required for recording to VHS with the
DVR620KU. Are they mistaken? I do not have cable.
DVR620KU. Are they mistaken? I do not have cable.
I think you at least need an antennae to record any anything from the air, however, as long as it is wired correctly, everything should be OK. Good Luck.

capabilities of this device
I notice specs always mention "your" movies or "your" VHS tapes. Using this device, can I make DVD copies of commercial VHS tapes, tapes that I have purchased? Or am I limited to converting only non-commercially made VHS tapes? If I cannot convert commercial tapes with this device, is there a converter out there that will without using a computer? Thanks.
Not that I know of. I think only home made VHS tapes or locally recorded tapes can be converted to DVDs.
