Worth seeing

After the less than great word of mouth I actually enjoyed this more than I was expecting.
DC still has a way to go before they reach the level of the Marvel Universe, but this would indicate they are learning.
Of course Harley Quinn owned the movie but other characters were enjoyable as well.
As to the extended version I only noticed one additional scene of any length and it didn't really add anything.

Good movie, incredible story.

Fact checking websites state this movie is pretty accurate account of the life of Chris Kyle.
There seem to be a lot of history based war movies recently and this is a good one.

I bought this for my grandson and, unlike Frozen, Secret Life of Pets, Minions, Inside Out, and other recent children's movies I did not enjoy watching this with him. Watch this only if you and your young one have already seen all of those movies.

I love this TV!
on February 20, 2017
Posted by: JPthemoviebuff
Verified Purchase:Yes
I've always streamed over my Bluray players but they were kinda slow. But I never realized how slow until I bought my grandson a smaller version of this SMART TV with a built-in Roku.
Several more months and I couldn't stand streaming over my Blurays any longer so bought this 43 for my bedroom.
Love the way the Roku works and, after a couple months, haven't experienced any of the problems other reviewers have mentioned.
Very satisfied and now I just gotta save up to replace the 60 in the living room!

Not as good but still watchable, once
on January 19, 2017
Posted by: JPthemoviebuff
Verified Purchase:Yes
The original was summer popcorn to begin with, but it was pretty entertaining and had action scenes I can watch repeatedly.
This belated sequel, not so much.
It also shares something with the long awaited Star Wars sequel from last year, both sequels are so similar in plot and structure to the originals it's like someone dusted off the original scripts and played 'plug and play'.
Still an enjoyable summer popcorn sci-fi action movie worth seeing but, even if you're a fan of the original, I'd recommend renting this one rather than buying.
Unless it's 4 years from now and is really cheap.

'Fight Club' pulls you in, challenges your prejudices, rocks your world and leaves you laughing (Rolling Stone). Brad Pitt (12 Monkeys, Seven), Edward Norton (Primal Fear, American History X) and Helena Bonham Carter (Mighty Aphrodite, a Room.

A movie that's become a cultural milestone
on January 19, 2017

Verified Purchase:Yes
If you are a man, and haven't seen this movie, please leave you man card at the door as you leave.
Quite funny at times and a 3rd act twist I didn't see coming the first time I watched it.
Recommended to all movie fans, but especially men.

It's an optical mouse, what do you want?

Wireless optical 'mice' are a dime a dozen but I like this brand so went back to it when my last one quick working. There are cheaper, and far more expensive as well, but this fits my needs perfectly

A modern Sci-fi masterpiece
on January 19, 2017
Posted by: JPthemoviebuff
Verified Purchase:Yes
An excellent meditation on what it means to be alive. The majority of the movie is 3 people in a house (with a 4th, non-speaking, character) but the movie is very engaging and makes you think.
Excellent acting and star turns by the 3 principles.
Highly recommended

Personally I use Google maps and Google Navigator, but my wife does not have a cell phone and often takes trips without me.
I prefer using Google, best Navigator I've ever used, but this is the next best thing.

Our remote broke for this tv. Can i get a remote replacement?

I'd contact Sharp directly, I'm sure you can get one. Probably cost you though.
Over the years I have lost one and got one wet and was able to replace each.
Another choice would be to just buy a universal remote and program it to this TV.

Does the '' audio out'' jack on this model work as an earphone/headset jack? I'll be putting this in a bedroom and need to insure that I can use headphones as to not disturb the others in the room.

The Audio output is fiber optic and I use it to send audio out to drive a little stereo, and the stereo has a headphone jack.
And use a wireless pair of headphones whose base plugs into that headphone jack.You might be able to find reasonably priced pair of wireless headphones that take a fiber optic input and there might also be a converter that changes the figeroptic to analog audio. But the short answer is no, the regular audio plug of most headphones won't plug into a fiber optic output.

Amazon Fire TV Stick with Voice Remote: Amazon Fire TV Stick is a compact streaming device that packs a punch. Plug into your TV using the HDMI interface and instantly access thousands of TV shows, movies, songs and games. With Alexa voice search function, you can find your favorites or get sports and weather updates quickly and easily.
 

If I have subscriptions to Netflix and Amazon, WIFI connection and a Visio Smart TV, do I even need a device such as Roku or the Fire Stick, etc. to watch Netflix and Amazon movies & TV shows???

No. I have watched Netflix, Hulu and Amazon Instant through a streaming Bluray player for over 5 years with no problems.

If your Smart TV has those apps, you should be able to watch them.

The wife and I bought this Firestick mainly for several apps it has that even the newest Bluray player, bought just this past Christmas, doesn't have.

Like Acorn, BBC stuff my wife loves, and a lot of it not available anywhere else.

Can you watch regular T.V. with the Firestick? Does it have a built in antenna or how do you watch regular channels fox five, cbs, abc, etc.????

It does not have an antenna to pick up local channels (but that only cost me an additional $30 and works GREAT) but it does have apps for all the motor networks.

The problem is some of them are free and some you have to subscribe to.

I don't watch it near as much as my wife does so can't give more detail than that, such as which are free vs. cost.

But, considering I got my Firestick on sale, it was DEFINITELY worth what I paid.

Wife LOVES it!

Only @ Best BuyThis Insignia~ NS-HS00501 speaker wire makes it easy to connect your speakers to an A/V receiver or amplifier. The 18-gauge thickness provides durability, and the 100' length offers flexible placement options.
 

can it be used for runs through the ceiling to my back and surround speakers?

I am installing four speakers in the back of the room and was wondering if this was rated to to do the runs in the rafters.
Click on the specifications tab of the product page, it'll tell you if it's in - wall rated or not.

Only @ Best BuyThis 50' spool of oxygen-free copper speaker wire allows you to connect your speakers to any receiver or amplifier and is a convenient solution to your home theater and other audio needs.
 

In-wall rated?

Is this wire in-wall rated?
All you have to do is click on the specifications tab on the product description page to confirm, yes, it is in - wall rated.

And it definitely matters, you do not want to put cheap wire, with poor heat dissipation, in a sheetrock wall.

Fire hazard bonanza!

Solid copper or copper clad aluminum

Neither, VERY fine braided copper strands, almost like grabbing a girl's ponytail. So I guess, yeah, solid, but very fine and very small.
Also claims it's 'oxygen free' copper.
