Also, IMO sports that are played on a larger grass field like Soccer, Football, maybe baseball a little where fans and activity aren’t as likely to be onscreen masking the blur somewhat further highlight it. It’s like playing on a blank green canvas, making the blur more obvious.

It probably has to do with rights to the content more than anything. After contractual obligations expire they will most likely end up back on what ever form of HBO streaming exist….HBO Max, or HBODiscovery, etc

Lets not forget, live sports also highlight the shortcomings of the dominant TV technology with motion blur/ghosting. And even though a lot of current tvs are better there’s still a lot of TVs out there already in home that have older tech and aren’t 4K. I don’t think live sports is the ideal...

I also usually keep the sub gain around 50-60% on the subwoofer’s dial and fine tune through the receiver/processor.

For sure there’s a balance. Directors and producers have to acknowledge what makes stories and characters popular and stand the test of time and smart enough to give a fresh take. Honestly, if I’m not given something new, I consider it a waste of time more often than not.

I don’t know why people get so disappointed with adaptations and minor twists and changes. If you want a carbon copy of the original, watch, read, or play the original. I can appreciate some surprises as long as they’re done respectfully. Changes don‘t always work but a fresh take on any...

Did u like the movie? I was pleasantly surprised how much I liked it. I’m not a massive fan of the original, don’t love it or hate it.

I couldn’t be less interested. IMO the first was the most overhyped rip off of similar stories that I’ve ever seen….it was for sure a visual tour de force no doubt but I’m so tired of hearing about the franchise and upcoming movies and box office records that I’m simply over it. Even when it...

Catherine and I recently started Orange is the New Black. Really enjoying it.

Hans Zimmer. I’m biased as he scored some of my favorite movies, including The Dark Knight trilogy. We’ve also been lucky enough to see him in concert in Philly.

1) Brendan Fraser has always hinted at being a much better actor than a lot of his roles let on. With Honors comes immediately to mind off the top of my head. But he became so popular he was used as a BO draw in a ton of lesser projects. Although for all the wrong reasons I love Bedazzled...

Is it streaming? I would like to watch it as well.

The Flash was scripted to soft reboot the entire DCU. Now it’s looking more and more like it and Aquaman 2 will end what currently exists altogether. The films in general aren’t connecting (WW and Aquaman were successful) for the most part OR aren‘t making enough money. Some of the films I...

DC MUST go in a different direction. Too much baggage and Cavill, Gadot are associated with divisive movies and it time to move on. I love them both but tough decisions have to be made. DC is possibly WBD‘s most valuable asset and are looked at as second tier by general audiences.

^ not uncommon in the consumer electronics industry….. I paid less for my 85” Sony 4K than my dad paid for his first 42” Panasonic EDTV Plasma.

Well DC is up for a complete reboot anyway under the direction of James Gunn (Guardians of the Galaxy) he was hired for four years to come up with a 10year over arching storyline. You can pretty much forget nearly everything that came before. There will also be “elseworlds“ stand alone movies...

Yup 10” doesn’t sound like much (in this context :D) but thats a 28% increase in screen real estate…..Not insignificant at all.

I recall watching one of the Hobbit movies in high frame rate at the theater and found it unwatchable (Though not due to technical issues).

Actually I had no idea what I was getting ready to watch. She rented the first one while I was at a Flyers game. The following night she made me sit through it so we could watch the sequel together. I wish she had somehow managed to watch both while I was at the game and I never got wind of it. :D

Wife made us rent R.I.P.D. And it’s sequel last night….man were they awful.
