    OLED is finally common

    Well now you tell me Flint after spending 1,700 on my new Samsung 4K tv. I waited more than five years to upgrade and the moment I upgrade the OLEDs will now drop in price. Story of my life.

    HDMI 2.1 = 8K Video + Variable Refresh Rate

    I was more interested in the fact that the new HDMI format allows for like 32 seperate channels of sound for object based audio.

    HDMI 2.1 = 8K Video + Variable Refresh Rate

    i can only see this being beneficial to people with projector based systems. They say you can't tell the difference between 1080p and 4K unless your sitting with three feet of the screen.

    D-box and Ultra AVX

    I found the 3D version of Rogue One to be utterly pointless. Sure it added some depth for the character in the foreground but otherwise I saw no sense in using it at all. As for D box I've been in a private theater that the owner had it set up. For some movies I'd say hell yes (like racing...

    A slight overestimation of Demand?

    I was at Best Buy last week and they had a 55" 1080p Panasonic for 298.00 I was like crap if I didn't already have a 50" in there that would've been a great price for a 1080p bedroom set.

    What Movie(s) Did You Watch Today?

    Jomari id rent it first. Most Bond fanatics will say this is the only Bond movie that pretty much nailed Ian Flemings version of what Bond should be. It was the one and only time George Lanzenby played Bond. Most found his acting to be subpar then again it was just after Sean Connery and...

    What Movie(s) Did You Watch Today?

    Watched "The Accountant" tonight and thought it was a very good movie. Ben Affleck plays an accountant who counts money for crime syndicates. The reason is he suffers from a higher level of Autism and lives his life in a certain order not caring for the outcome he just wants to finish what he...

    Rogue One a Star Wars story

    Well the female pilot texting while flying was bothersome but added realism to the story.

    What Movie(s) Did You Watch Today?

    I am a fan of the James Bond movies and have read all the books. Bond actually got married to Tracy Drago but she was assassinated when Bond and her were traveling to their honeymoon (by Blofeld no less). Her legal name was Teresa Drago and she was heiress to another crime syndicate and Bond...

    Rogue One a Star Wars story

    I like to think she actually was on a diplomatic mission to Alderran (which Vader would've sensed had she been lying about that). I think that the Death Star plans just fell in her lap from the end of Rogue One and she knew she had to do something once the pursuit was on. Hence when they were...

    Roku makes big news on next client devices!

    I think I'm just gonna hold off for awhile. It maybe a year or so before Centurylink gets anything faster than 20 Mbps in my area and no sense buying gear that I won't get to use. Hopefully by then they'll have all the bugs worked out.

    And we lose another one-Carrie Fisher

    Death has taken a lot from us this year but went out with a bang with a mother daughter combo.

    Roku makes big news on next client devices!

    Came very close to buying a Roku 4 Premier Plus. Actually ordered it but cancelled the order after sleeping on it. The main reason being the fastest internet my area gets and what I have is 20 Mbps. Now that I have a Samsung 4K tv I was torn between buying a 4K bluray player like The Xbox One...

    Whiplash

    I read that actor Miles Teller actually had to learn how to play drums while filming and the scene with the bloody hands was actual blood from Miles Teller playing.

    The Secret Life of Walter Mitty

    I saw the original with Danny Kaye as a child. Although the Ben Stiller version was entertaining I still liked the Danny Kaye version better as it was more true to the novel and Danny Kaye just had a way with facial expressions.

    Disney, recycled.

    I saw a porno once of Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs. I seem to recall vast differences between that version and Disney's version.
