THERE'S A NEW REASON TO BE AFRAID OF THE DARK. A sci-fi/horror sleeper hit that birthed a franchise and launched the career of a new action movie icon, Pitch Black holds it's own today as a nerve-shredding creature-feature in which the monsters outside finally meet their match against a monster within. When an intergalactic transport ship crashes on a remote desert planet with no sign of help on the horizon, the survivors, led by Fry (Radha Mitchell), band together to find a way back home. Among the passengers is Riddick (Vin Diesel), a convicted murderer being transported by marshal Johns (Cole Hauser) - and now freed of his chains and on the loose. But as a solar eclipse plunges the planet into total darkness, a threat even worse than Riddick reveals itself, and the last humans standing may have to form an uneasy truce with the cunning fugitive (whose eyes have been surgically altered to see in the dark) to last the long night. Boasting crackerjack direction and a whip-smart script by David Twohy, as well as a star-making performance by Diesel, Riddick's first outing is freshly unleashed in an illuminating, brand new 4K restoration, with hours of exclusive bonus content.

I missed this one when it came out on IMAX. About 5 minutes into a RedBox rental, knew I had to purchase. Movie did receive Oscars, including cinematography. Great Story, Excellent Acting, Right there with Saving Private Ryan. Add this one to your 4K collection, Great Extras included on how they made this classic. No Disappointment here.

I've never strayed from using Norton Security Products from my Days working for two major corporations. They used the product on their company field laptops. I renew my subscription when on sale at Best Buy and works out great. You have the tools to solve issues within the programs and chat access if needed plus I can add my cell phone and Ipad too. You can auto renew product if appropriate. #1 in my Book!

Excellent Printer!
on February 28, 2020

Verified Purchase:Yes
My HP6878 went down, checked the Best Buy Reviews and decided on this model which is doing a Great Job with faxes, Clean Printing and Scan. Doesn't hold as much paper as my former printer but no issue. Be sure to purchase Geek Squad 2 year protection plan, any issues in the time period and they replace with the same model or you can move up to another unit as appropriate. HP Ink Program is a must. Have used that for several years and Very Satisfied, automatic shipments so you don't run out. Thanks!

The NETGEAR AC1750 Smart WiFi 5 Router with external antennas delivers extremely fast WiFi. With AC1750 WiFi, Gigabit Ethernet speeds, and high-powered external antennas, this router offers ultimate performance in wireless coverage for large homes with 12 or more wireless devices. It gets 3x faster access than similar 802.11n.
 

is it compatible with AT&T DSL?

Yes. I just changed over from Charter Internet to Direct TV/Internet with the Fiber Optic. Clean Setup. Used this router for years with the Netgear Range Extender. Pretty Sweet! As a double check: Check online for the Router instruction manual for a diagram hookup Thanks!

I have Comcast (Xfinity) Internet (300Mbps) upstairs in my computer office, but the signal doesn't transfer to my tv in the living room and the signals on my phones are spotty. Will this router help to correct all of that? My home is approx. 1800 sq. ft.

Maybe but Do what I did that's sure to work. Pick up this router, Check Amazon and Best Buy for Pricing. Purchase a Netgear N300 WiFi Range Extender - Model EX2700. There may be an update to this model. Extender will mate with the Router and give you that signal boost you need. Log your TV and related products into the Extender as needed. Plugs into any outlet, Simple to install and you're going to love it! Thanks!

I already have a dual band router that's working great. However I'd like to use this router to extend my current range and provide 4 hardwired LAN points at the other end of my house. Will this do the job?

My Bonus Room Home Theater is over my garage and not close to my Home Office Router. I used a Netgear N300 Wifi Range Extension - Model EX2700 and works great.
Easy to Setup and check Best Buy and Amazon for the Best Price. I then logged my TV, A/V Receiver and DVD Player to the extension. This Dual Band Router is Excellent. Have used for several years with no issues. Try This...See if you can get a 4 Point Extender that complements your current router that you can hook up wirelessly. I think that would be the cleanest way to go. You can plug in all of your stuff, should be small enough too. Check Amazon and Best Buy for Pricing, Price Match as Appropriate. Thanks!

Do I need to already have cable set up in my home or any type of internet services in order to use this in my apartment? Small apartment, but cable is just so expensive and I am looking for an alternative. I just need wifi, 1 cell phone and a PS4/

Yes, You would need an internet service to use this router. I used Charter Internet for years and recently switched over to ATT/Direct TV in a bundle. Shop for the Best Internet Services for your area to get the Best Deal. You can then use the WiFi for your internet needs for TV, DVD Player and your cell phone. You can save $ by logging in your cell phone linked to your home internet. Hope This Helps!

Tell Bixby Voice what shows you want to watch with this 65-inch Samsung smart television. Its 4K resolution is enhanced by HDR Plus for picture depth and Motion Rate 240, so even fast-paced video displays clearly. The UHD Engine in this Samsung smart television optimizes content to make the most of streamed or DVD content.
 

I misplaced the screws for the bottom mount on a new 65” Samsung NU8000... just putting on an entertainment center... I see there are 4 screw holes in the back mount and also 4 that go into the bottom of the mount... what size screws are needed for both?

Jared, I would go to Samsung Customer Service and see if they would send you a replacement set. Better to go with the Factory Parts than to try a guess to make something work. I remember these were a little tricky to install and set the hole alignment. J.C.

How could I connect my Pioneer ld player to this tv since there are no composite connections? I know it's ancient technology and I also have a Sony 4k player.

I would check Amazon and their cable options. You may be able to find what you need to connect composite on a set of cables and an appropriate end that would make a solid connection to your TV. J.C.

I just purchased a Samsung nu8000fxza it did not come with any set instructions/ please advise - thanks

Paul, Check your TV Menu Options, there may be a set-up area where you can scroll through and complete.
Also check U Tube and search for your make and model, should be some good Info there.
