The 1st Transformers IMO was better
on November 12, 2009
Posted by: smiley62
from sw mich
I enjoyed the first Transformers more than this one. The px/sound qualiity and bass are great on blu-ray though. The storyline on this second movie was not as great as the first transformers. I have the 1st one in my blu collection....only rented the second one, and probably will not purchase this one.
What's great about it: Blu ray sound and picture
What's not so great: enjoyed the first movie
I would recommend this to a friend!

If you enjoyed The Matrix you will like this

If you enjoy the matrix this movie is for you. Has a couple of adult scenes so younger audience should stay away. Acting and storyline is great. Hope there is a sequel.
What's great about it: audio and video
What's not so great: cannot think of any
I would recommend this to a friend!

My family and self is a mummy fan so this one fits right in. Good plot, acting and special effects...without giving too much away the yettes (aboniable snowmen) were pretty far fetched, other than that good movie.
What's great about it: audio and video-acting is good
What's not so great: cannot think of any

Not up to par with the other Indy movies
on December 15, 2008
Posted by: smiley62
from sw mich
The first time I watched only half way through and turned off. A couple of weeks later I finished watching and it really did not get any better. The aliens head and aliens kind of ruined it, should of stayed along the original lines of past movies, not make up artifacts......my son agreed with me, he finished the whole movie the first time and told me it gets worse, and aliens show up. He was right.
What's great about it: Audio and video alright
What's not so great: kind of boring
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Escort Passport Max 0100016-1 Radar and Laser Detector: Rely on this radar detector for your car to keep you informed of who else is on the road. The unit also shows you where red lights and speed cameras are located so you can adjust your driving accordingly.

Absolutely no laser detection!!!!
By masterdinh from Texas
I have two Escort Passport Max. They work great in the city. I just got back from my road trip to Disney World. Got popped 94 in a 70 and the Max NEVER went off. I look up and I am going 94 with a cop behind me! Prior to this I thought this radar was invincible. Through out the states I saw state troopers point their lasers at me, my detector never went off. Like I said, I have 2 of these, one for me one for my wife. I am very disappointed.

You need the shifter for laser protection
January 5, 2014
Max isn't made for Laser..it will detect the Laser 99% of the time but it will be 100% too late of a warning. I recommend pairing your MAX with this for better protection. https://www.escortradar.com/store/laser-shifter-zr4.html

VG-2 interception and firmware updates

Can this model intercept VG-2 signals?
Are firmware updates via computer free for life?
Thank you.

how much is a gold membership?

Is it cheap? o_O at least, what's the best buy?
If you buy certain games they include a free subscrition for x-box live for a month and it is usually a gold membership. I have two accounts one for me and one for my son. It is around 40 dollars a year if I remember right and I think it is worth it. You can download demos of the games and play them before you buy. Very expansive network of things to do

X-box 360 or PS3 which and why

Have not tried a PS3 but have a Elite and Pro for my boy. I use my elite to stream music, pictures, movies from my computer to my tv which is pretty neat. Also they just did a update for x-box live which improved everything a lot. I enjoy all the games you can purchase and the x-box live experience is awesome. Hope this helps.

What should i buy, a Xbox or a Xbox elite?

I purchased a Elite. The reason at that time the other consoles did not have hdmi cable hookup and also did not have a 120 gb memory. Now I believe most of the 360's have hdmi hook up. And you can also buy a 120 gb for memory now as a accessory.
