MUCH better than the price suggests!

Totally love these. Probably the best pair of speakers I've owned for music and movies across every genre. The price for what you get is ridiculous. HIGHLY recommended.

Christopher Nolan's groundbreaking Dark Knight Trilogy is featured in this special edition release. Nolan's dark, gritty portrayal of Bruce Wayne's transition into Batman and his struggles as Gotham's superhero set the precedent for modern superhero films. With minimal usage of CGI and a focus on character driven narratives, the three Christian Bale-led films were both critical and box office successes. The three entries - Batman Begins (2005), The Dark Knight (2008), and The Dark Knight Rises (2012) - are included in this collector's edition, as well as commentary and behind the scenes bonus content.

Aging well.

These are still three of the greatest Batman movies (and other than the two Burtons, the only one's I'll ever need) and I think these blu-ray transfers still hold up. This set has more extras than purchasing them individually. If you're a fan, it's definitely worth it.

A great end to Lucas' story...

Verified Purchase:Yes
The movie is great- despite the, ahem, alterations. It looks great thought I'm not sure if it looks like a movie anymore and by any consistent measure for video quality I don't know how to review it- other than to say it looks better than I've ever seen the movie in all my many years. I wish the DNR had not been slathered all over it. I wish the Yub Nub song was still here. But the audio is amazing. The detail is also great with the caveat of the DNR and the extras are pretty comprehensive. Recommended.

Beautiful

Verified Purchase:Yes
If you love this movie this is a real treat. The previous Synapse release was a revelation and I didn't think it could be bettered, but this really makes the case for Suspiria being one of the most beautiful horror movies ever made. Grain, color, black levels, audio, and everything else betters the last release.

A classic given the treatment it fully deserves. It looks and sounds about as good as I could ever expect it to look and the extras are plentiful and thorough. Absolutely essential.

Great deal

Verified Purchase:Yes
The '89 Pet Semetary and The Dead Zone are classics and pretty essential, imo. Silver Bullet is a lot of nostalgic fun. The Stand is solid for the period, the budget, and the grasp of its reach, so I recommend it to all King/Mick Garris fans. The Pet Semetary remake is a movie and it sure did come with this set, alright. The price for the 4 movies you'll want to revisit makes this a bargain.

Pretty great.

I love this movie- even when it's undermining the greatness of Desperado which is, of course, a much better film. But this is Rodriguez in his prime, firing on all cylinders, and you can't get much more entertaining if you're in to ridiculous action movies.

Surreal western
on April 9, 2021
Posted by: happydude
Verified Purchase:Yes
I've heard this described as a horror western. I'm not sure if I fully accept that, but it does certainly have some surreal, creepy, and gothic atmosphere to it. It's definitely a more experimental Clint Eastwood in terms of story, though the aesthetic is pure Leone- and there ain't nothing wrong with that. It looks and sounds great, but I wish there were some extras.

Essential classic horror

Listen, if you're looking at this title, you know what it is and who Val Lewton is and you're already in anyway. The long and short is it looks and sounds amazing- miles beyond the old dvd- and anyone in to classic horror will cherish it.

Exceptional OLED picture and rich sound in perfect harmony, powered by the intelligent Cognitive Processor XR. Billions of accurate colors and pure black make everything you watch and play come to life with natural hues and shades. Acoustic Surface Audio+ turns the entire screen into a multi-channel speaker that follows the action on screen for a truly immersive viewing experience.
 

If this tv is connected to avr and speakers, can the tv be used as the center channel?

It does have this option in the sound settings. It will sound thinner than a discrete center channel- not to mention if you watch anything older that is strictly 1-channel mono, but it's there.

Experience the bigger, clearer picture when you upgrade your home theater setup with the STR-DH590. The 5.2ch AV receiver brings movies to life with 4K HDR pass-through, Dolby Vision and flexible surround sound. Bring all your devices together with BLUETOOTH connectivity and multiple inputs.
 

Is this a wireless connection to the speaker capable unit

No. There's no wifi to enable that.
