Re: Toshiba CEO talks about life after HD DVD

Skyhawk... you're gave good instructive advice about the ONE thread resurrection. I've thought about it both ways, and I can go with either method, but as you pointed out, if just one thread was resurrected then others who post follow-ups would HOPEFULLY post just to that one resurrected thread... unfortunately, that doesn't always happen, as sometimes people will re-start multiple threads (or create NEW ones) about the same subject on the same day...!

As for helping out the site here with info, I'm doing it on the Msd Bd right now, and we'll see if something develops further (helping the internal staff).

I enjoy DVDTOWN very much, especially the Msd Bd and great reviews (some of the best I've seen, although more technical info about the disc mastering and specs would be appreciated).

I also love accessing the content on those interactive advertisements that appear at the top of most pages (Dirty Harry currently, Rambo last week, Death Proof in the past - loved that soundtrack promo!). It's great to peruse a film in more detail thru one of the DVDTOWN ad-link placed by the studios/distributors.

Did you watch the new Rambo on Blu-ray yet? The PQ is good, but the movie made both my wife and I laugh nearly all the way through cause it was so over the top. I hate to say it, but we actually enjoyed it for what it was.

Hey, I liked RAMBO, as the violence was super-realistic, and I'd wish it had been longer, with more twists and turns. The RAMBO character was better explained in part 1, so Stallone trimmed out many of his own spoken dialogue (see those 4 bonus/extended scenes).

I watched about a third of the bonus-view content (so far), enjoyed the added info (some content appeared in a small screen, and then some sometimes they left the film and gave bonus stuff full-screen, and then went back to the film afterwards).

Hard to believe that the main actress, the lovely Julie Benz (realistic acting), was one of the girls from the 1999 movie Jawbreaker.

And the Rambo movie has 11 minutes of credits(!), as lots of people helped make the film - visual effects, stuntmen, carpenters, painters, personal security (on location in Thailand), caterers, chefs, etc, etc.

Funny you should mention that, because the wife and I are ones that normally stick around for the credits. We both noticed the two "Sandwich Makers" with the Thai names, and though: "hmm... SE Asians don't make sandwiches, I wonder what were in it?" LOL

Somehow, the thought of "Rambo" having to eat a fried squid between two pieces of bread was pretty funny for us.

People are not in the habit of reading multiple older threads on the same subject (after doing a search), so the updated info is beneficial if I add to ALL of those threads, see?

Actually, that would be a good excuse to just start a NEW thread since most of us here post to the NEW threads on a daily basis. I'm not knocking the info you posted Jimi, just the way you did it was obnoxious, to say the least. I've had my ass chewed from doing shit like that in the past on the site, and really, had you just put it in one thread I'm sure we all would see it because the majority of us read the newest and updated threads.

Last night I noticed five of the threads were on the same topic and it made me wonder WTF was going on! Then I see you posted the same thing to each thread, and eventhough I know you meant well and your intentions were for the better, it just made it appear as though you were trying to be annoying.

OMG this thread really went sideways!!!
It's time for some Pumpkin Salad
