excellent UHD conversion

Not one of Spielberg's best, but still a treat for UHD/HDR. Look for the Glenn Close cameo.

Prepare to journey into the deepest reaches of space... inner space! Stephen Boyd, Donald Pleasence, and Raquel Welch in her feature-film debut, star in 'one of the most ingenious, inventive, imaginative, science fiction films Hollywood has ever produced' (Citizen-News).

A classic, with amazingly poor science

Not Raquel Welch's first movie, but it was before the one that made her famous (One Million Years B. C.).
It was really hot stuff - in 1966.

Surprising good for a low-budget SF thriller

Enjoyable, and pretty well acted. Avoid thinking too much about the plot twists (they don't make much sense), and you'll like the ride.

Even better than the original H100i. I used it on an AM4 motherboard, with the included adapter. BB price was as good as online, without price matching.

Mel Brooks flings an arrow at the Robin Hood epics of Kevin Costner and Errol Flynn and hits a bull's-eye in the ha-ha department. Cary Elwes is the fearless hero who battles the evil Sheriff of Rottingham (Roger Rees) for the future of England and the hand of Maid Marian (Amy Yasbeck). Richard Lewis, Dom DeLuise, Tracey Ullman, and Dave Chappelle (his film debut) co-star. 104 min. Widescreen; Soundtracks English DTS HD 5.1 Master Audio, Dolby Digital Surround, Spanish Dolby Digital Surround, French Dolby Digital Surround; Subtitles English (SDH), Spanish; audio commentary; featurettes; isolated music score.

A Mel Brooks movie. Get it.

Verified Purchase:Yes
Basically a take-off of "Robin Hood: Price of Thieves" in which Kevin Costner didn't even try to simulate a British accent. At one point, Robin (Carey Elwes) dumps a deer carcass in front of Prince John (Richard Lewis), who mutters "tref" (basically, not kosher). Not up there with Blazing saddles, but get it anyway.

When the box office champ Ben Stiller's comedic performances aren't a variation on a soft-spoken, put-upon everyman with an eventual fuse, he's usually playing a full-blown absurdist monster with an apoplectic Napoleon complex. These bizarre creations usually adorn films in which the funnyman provides the supporting work (DODGEBALL, HEAVYWEIGHTS), but, whenever he's directing, he's free to build an entire filmic universe around his asinine, ludicrously funny, culture-skewering characters and premises. His ZOOLANDER (2001) bit at the entertainment industry with silly abandon, but Stiller has firmly set TROPIC THUNDER within the realm of sophisticated Hollywood satire. In it, a desperate director named Damien Cockburn (Steve Coogan) trying to make a Vietnam war movie drops his pampered actors into the heart of the jungle. Cockburn's stars include Stiller as an action hero who's starting to make bad career choices, Jack Black as an insecure low-brow comedy star going through heroin withdrawals, and Robert Downey Jr. As an Australian Oscar winner so lost in his InchcraftInch he underwent a procedure to become black for his role. In the jungle, they remain under the delusion that they are still being filmed even after they encounter a dangerous gang of druglords. The film's basic premise has popped up several times since Hollywood's 1970s golden age in films such as THREE AMIGOS! And GALAXY QUEST. Where those films simply blanketed a classic Overconfident Bumbling Idiot comedy showcase with a pop culture lexicon, however, TROPIC THUNDER could have only been made, as on-the-nose at is, by people who have been working in the Hollywood system for years, making cutting observations along the way. Simply put, this raucous satire knows big-budget filmmaking, the delusional narcissism of actors, and even the good points of those actors-perhaps why they're celebrated-like the back

Just kidding. Robert Downey Jr. was Oscar nominated for his role as a trans-racial (is that a term?) Australian actor.

Based on the classic building-demolishing video game series, this exciting sci-fi actioner stars Dwayne Johnson as Davis Okoye, a primatologist whose silverback gorilla pal George is infected by a strange mist that causes him to grow in size and become more aggressive. As George and two fellow mutated animals-red wolf Ralph and crocodile Lizzie-wreak havoc on Chicago, Davis and a disgraced geneticist (Naomie Harris) must try and stop the carnage. With Malin Akerman, Jeffrey Dean Morgan. 107 min. Widescreen; Soundtrack English. Two-disc set.

Dwayne Johnson always brings something to his films. The villain is female, which is unusual. The plot is mostly nonsensical.
Few movies feature giant albino gorillas.

Not in the same class as 2001

Wildly inconsistent Zero G stuff. (The attention to detail wasn't anything like Kubrick's.) I admire John Lithgow, but he was miscast here. Some cute cameos featuring Arthur C. Clarke.

Enjoy brilliant color and sound with this Panasonic Ultra HD Blu-ray player. The chroma processing technology maximizes the color of 4K/HDR content, and the 7.1-channel audio output produces lifelike surround sound when connected to a home audio system. The color signals received by this Panasonic Ultra HD Blu-ray player are upgraded to produce natural textures and depth.
 

I currently have the Sony UBP-X700 due to it having the HDMI Audio Output. Does the Panasonic have this output?

User submitted photo
Yes. The DP-UB820 has two HDMI outputs, one of which is for audio only.

I know this will fit my case but I was wondering if this will this fit a ryzen 5 and ryzen 7 on a b350m msi bazooka motherboard?

I doubt that you care after a month, but it should fit. I'm using one on an X470 board from Asus.

On an AM4 board, it requires an adapter, which is included with current shipments of the cooler. You remove the stock lockdown brackets, and replace them with standoffs. The most difficult part of the whole process for me was replacing the original hold-downs on the cooler wit the AM4 adapter.

Do you have enough space in your case for the radiator? (I notice you're using a mictoATX board.)
