Limited vinyl LP pressing includes 12 x 12 insert. Pinkerton is the second studio album by band Weezer, released on September 24, 1996. After abandoning plans for a rock opera titled Songs from the Black Hole, Weezer recorded Pinkerton between songwriter Rivers Cuomo's terms at Harvard University, where he wrote much of the album. To better capture their live sound, Weezer produced Pinkerton themselves, creating a darker, more abrasive album than their 1994 self-titled debut. Cuomo's lyrics express disillusionment with the rock lifestyle; the album is named after the character BF Pinkerton from Giacomo Puccini's 1904 opera Madama Butterfly, whom Cuomo described as an Inchasshole American sailor similar to a touring rock starInch. Like the opera, the album contains references to Japanese culture. Album Tracks 1. Tired of S*x 3 01 2. Getchoo 2 52 3. No Other One 3 01 4. Why Bother? 2 08 5. Across the Sea 4 32 1. The Good Life 4 17 2. El Scorcho 4 03 3. Pink Triangle 3 58 4. Falling for You 3 47 5. Butterfly 2 53

My favorite Weezer album!

Verified Purchase:Yes
This reissue is amazing! I've had the CD since it first came out, but the mastering on this record provides a much raunchier sound than the original digital. Played loud, it pulls you into a soundscape of swirling guitars and Rivers Cuomo's angst, just as it should.

Classic Debut
on May 28, 2020
Posted by: Rogue03
Verified Purchase:Yes
This pressing sounds great, has little to no noise at all, but the spindle hole is very tight. The first time I played the record I had to push it down with a little force to get it on, and removing it the first few times took more effort than it should have. What a great album though, and I personally love that they put "Say it Ain't So" as the first song of Side B, it's one of my favorites from the album.

One of my favorite albums of all time!

Verified Purchase:Yes
R.E.M. is one of my favorite bands and listening to this really takes me back. It's one of my favorites from them and of all time.
The LP is quiet/flat with a great sound and the dynamics sound good on my system. I did get one skip during "Try Not to Breathe" on my first listen but a good cleaning should take care of that. Really glad to have this album on vinyl!

Writer-director Greta Gerwig (Lady Bird) has crafted a Little Women that draws on both the classic novel and the writings of Louisa May Alcott, and unfolds as the author's alter ego, Jo March, reflects back and forth on her fictional life. In Gerwig's take, the beloved story of the March sisters - four young women each determined to live life on their own terms - is both timeless and timely.

Very entertaining movie, glad to own it

Verified Purchase:Yes
I really enjoyed this latest adaptation of Little Women. The performances were great all around. They were able to find new ways of telling the story while staying true to the novel.
The 1080p video looked good to my eyes. I don't think there is a 4K version available, yet. While this is not a movie with bombastic sound effects, the DTS-MA audio provided a nice soundscape and good surround usage when called for. Dialogue was always clear and natural.
The extras are kind of the usual EPK type short documentaries but not too bad. There are 6 of them that total ~50 minutes. I wish there were an audio commentary with the Director or the cast but this is still a solid release.

Average movie but it's Star Wars
on April 1, 2020
Posted by: Rogue03
Verified Purchase:Yes
I wasn't crazy about this film but, hey, it's Star Wars and is still great entertainment overall. I was kind of hoping they would expand on the groundwork laid in The Last Jedi (from the anyone can be force sensitive perspective). I'm not sure I like having Palpatine back, either, although Ian McDiarmid brings his A-game as always. Having said that, this is a great presentation of the movie for home. The steelbook is nice to have in the collection. The 4K video is naturally better but the 1080p blu-ray is no slouch. The Dolby Atmos sound is amazing. However, the audio mix (DTS-MA) on the 1080p blu is a little lacking. You may have to turn it up to reference levels, or maybe even a little above, to make up for the low mix. I'm still going through the supplements but it looks like there's a pretty good collection of extras here. The crown jewel is the ~2 hour "The Skywalker Legacy" documentary. And if you register the digital copy, you get a 11 minute doc on John Williams called the "The Maestro's Finale". So, all in all, this is a nice package. Just wish I liked the movie a little more. We'll see how it sits after a few more viewings.

Great monitor for work

Recently picked this up to enable working from home for an extended period of time. It was easy to set up and provides a nice picture, great for displaying multiple documents. It's only 1080p but I'm only using it for work so I don't really need higher resolutions or refresh rates. So much better than having to work off my laptop's display. No complaints so far.

Great mouse, suits my needs well
on April 1, 2020
Posted by: Rogue03
Verified Purchase:Yes
This mouse is a little on the small side but works perfectly and provides me the flexibility I need when working with my laptop at home. Very easy to set up and pair. One disadvantage is that it requires a dongle. So that might be a disadvantage for people with limited USB ports. Other than that, I don't have any complaints.

Worthy follow-up to the original

I am a big fan of the original Blade Runner and all its theatrical/director's/etc. cut presentations. I thought this movie did a good job with carrying over the overall mood of the original. All the actors appear to be invested in the story and it's always good to see Harrison Ford in a role he cares about. There are some callbacks to the original so it definitely helps if you've seen it. Great A/V presentation!

Widescreen (Enhanced); Soundtracks English DTS HD 7.1 Master Audio, DVS 5.1, Dolby Digital stereo, Spanish Dolby Digital 5.1, French Dolby Digital 5.1; Subtitles English (SDH), Spanish, French; sing-along; audio commentary; featurettes.

Fun (if sanitized) movie for the whole family
on March 24, 2020
Posted by: Rogue03
Verified Purchase:Yes
I think more daughters have worn out our copy of this blu-ray. It really is a fun, lightweight movie to watch with family and friends, full of catchy songs and a good message about never giving up. This blu has a great A/V presentation with nice surround effects and low end was nice on my system. You just have to ignore the real story of PT Barnum and how he was a disgusting human being, exploiting people whom he labeled as freaks for financial gain. So take my advice and watch the movie before looking him up.

Had to pick up a set of these when I recently bought a turntable. The audio cable that came with the turntable was too short to reach my receiver so I got these to connect it to another set of cables I already had. They appear to work well so far.

Does it come with the cord to hook up to the computer?

It only comes with an HDMI cable so you'll need a VGA cable if your computer only has that.

Yes, it worked fine with my Dell laptop so it should work with an HP, as well. It has HDMI and VGA inputs so just make sure your laptop is compatible.

Does it come in slipcover?

Yes, the 4K version I purchased came in a slipcover. The artwork on the blu-ray case and slipcover are the same.
