Urban warfare 75 years ago
on December 10, 2016
Posted by: JPthemoviebuff
Verified Purchase:Yes
The modern west has never had a major city under seige, Russia had 3. And Stalingrad was the worse. As bad as things in this movie looked the reality was worse, much worse. Losely based on actual events.

The best movie about Rock and Roll ever made
on December 10, 2016
Posted by: JPthemoviebuff
Verified Purchase:Yes
Sorry Spinal Tap, but this was real.
Based on director Cameron Crowe's early career as a rock critic, most of these people and events actually happened. (Allman Bros, Poco, Led Zep, The Who, Skynyrd, Frampton are all rolled up into a fictional band)
Very affectionate, and very funny, look at life on the road in the early 70s.

The original 'Hit' R-rated comic movie
on October 29, 2016
Posted by: JPthemoviebuff
Verified Purchase:Yes
With all the hype over Deadpool some foaming at the mouth fan boys seemed to have forgotten another successful R-rated movie based on a comix, that was released a full 22 years earlier.
While, admittedly, not as good as Deadpool, it was still a good movie. And a tragic look at what could have been a major action star in Bruce Lee's son Brandon, who died, on set, in the final days of the production.
If you like today's harder edged superhero movie you owe it to yourself to see this movie,

The best Avengers movie yet
on October 14, 2016
Posted by: JPthemoviebuff
Verified Purchase:Yes
And make no mistake, this was an Avengers movie, Hulk and Thor or no Hulk and Thor. And they pulled in everyone and their mother, uh make that Aunt, to make sure.
But what we got was: the best Marvel movie fight yet (somehow they KEEP topping themselves) and, hands down, the best Spiderman to ever appear on any screen.
Can't wait to see what's next.
This is also one of those movies that points out the ever increasing stupidity of American audiences. Chris Nolan usually does that and I never thought I'd see it in a comic book movie.
And yes, I am talking to you idiots who said it didn't have a plot, or didn't have much of one.
I thought the plotline was just fine. And it's a superhero movie, I expect plotholes big enough to drive a truck through.
Get over it.

Season Six starts with Alexandria s safety shattered by multiple threats. To make it, the people of Alexandria will need to catch up with our survivors hardness while many of Rick's people will need to take a step back from the violence and pragmatism they've needed to embrace. These reversals won t happen easily, or without conflict. But now Rick's group is fighting for something more than survival... They're fighting for their home, and they will defend that at any cost, against any threat, even if that threat comes from within.

One of the Best Shows on Television
on September 23, 2016
Posted by: JPthemoviebuff
Verified Purchase:Yes
If you are looking at this review, you know what you're getting; one of the best seasons of a great show, ending with the introduction of one of the greater villains in modern fiction: Negan.
(And for those who haven't read the books, the intro was the same but the lead up to his appearance was even better!)
And I can't wait for what is destined to be the best season yet.

Good headphones for the price

I bought these for my grandson to use with his tablet.
I wanted to get him some decent ones and there was no way he was getting his hands on my noise cancelling Bose!
And these fit the bill just fine!

Good movie, pretty original concept
on July 29, 2016
Posted by: JPthemoviebuff
Verified Purchase:Yes
Even without the quality of the acting I thought this was a pretty original story and a good script.
But the acting by the leads pushed this in to 5 star territory.
The acting, mannerisms and makeup to make Gordon-Levitt into a young Bruce Willis was superb.

A great movie for kids and adults
on July 29, 2016

Verified Purchase:Yes
Very entertaining movie that deserved a direct sequel.
And would have been a much bigger hit if the studio hadn't of been dumb enough to put it in theaters at the same time as Toy Story.
Hard to believe it's been 20+ years!

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.
