Challenging movie that isn't everyone's cup of tea. Great transfer that appeared on many 'best of 2020' 4K disc reviewer lists.

Excellent retelling of the book series - TV has the ability to tell the story in more detail than the two hour Golden Compass movie could. Additional seasons will allow exploration into the stories of the later books. Great production values and quality writing/acting.

Celebrating the 30th Anniversary of The Godfather Part III, director/screenwriter Francis Ford Coppola brings a definitive new edit and restoration of the final film in his epic Godfather trilogy-Mario Puzo's THE GODFATHER, Coda The Death of Michael Corleone. Michael Corleone (Al Pacino), now in his 60s, seeks to free his family from crime and find a suitable successor to his empire. That successor could be fiery Vincent (Andy Garcia)... but he may also be the spark that turns Michael's hope of business legitimacy into an inferno of mob violence. The film's meticulously restored picture and sound, under the supervision of American Zoetrope and Paramount Pictures, includes a new beginning and ending, as well as changes to scenes, shots, and music cues. The resulting project reflects author Mario Puzo and Coppola's original intentions of The Godfather Part III, and delivers, in the words of Coppola, Incha more appropriate conclusion to The Godfather and The Godfather Part II.Inch

Director's cut of Godfather III with improved picture quality and sound. Not quite as epic as the original two films but a worthy conclusion to the trilogy.

Reboot more like rehash

Lacking the spontaneity of the original, this is a lazily constructed reboot that simply tries to cash in on nostalgia for the first film.

Great sound and doesn't require a subwoofer

Sound quality is excellent and there is enough bass for smaller rooms and reasonable volume levels. This isn't going to shake the pictures off the wall but is not designed to.

The spec list says this requires 240 volt power. Not common in the US except for Dryer, Stoves & Water Heaters. Does a converter come with this to use in US homes?

The US model comes with a standard 3-prong 120v plug and does not require 240v.

I would like to know if this phone is water resistant or not. Please give me an answer soon because I am in the market for a new phone.

For some reason, the T-Mobile variant has an IP rating, but the unlocked phone does not have the rating in the specifications. I think it is safe to say that both phones are of similar construction and the unlocked version is the same. Not sure why OnePlus elects to not publish this spec for the unlocked model. I still believe this phone is a great value at the reduced $599 price.

This phone only works on T-Mobile for 5G Network? What's about Verizon? 8T 5G built for 5G, featuring a Qualcomm Snapdragon 865 chipset powered by an octa-core CPU. *5G service only available on T-Mobile Thank you

Go to the OnePlus website and find the user forum for the 8T - there is plenty of Verizon discussion there. I have it on T-Mobile and it worked fine.

the overview states this have expandable storage micro sd card slot, the specs says no expandable media card.. which is correct? does it have micro sd card slot?

The phone does NOT have an option to install additional storage via a Micro SD card. The SIM tray supports dual SIM's if you need that feature for international travel.

Does the phone have ip rating? Wireless charging? Thanks!

The T-Mobile version shows an IP68 rating, for some reason OnePlus has elected not to include this rating in the specs for the unlocked version. The phone does not support wireless charging but the included Warp 65 watt charger will bring the battery from zero to 100 percent in about 40 minutes.

Can this heater be used in a travel trailer?

At the high heat setting 1500 watts it draws about 12 amps. Depending on the capacity of your electrical system you will have to be careful about overloading the circuit it uses with other electric appliances along with knowing the amperage of the supply to your RV. For example if you were driveway camping on a 15 amp circuit this one heater would use most of your available amps and could cause an overheated extension cord if combined with another high wattage device running at the same time.
