Wasn't sure about this one, but I wanted to know what Mel Gibson was up to these days. I hadn't seen anything with him in it recently. This movie does not disappoint. Watching Mel Gibson and Vince Vaughn trade dialog is a joy. The movie is slow and methodic but never uninteresting. It pays off in the end. I liked it because it was filmed with a steady traditional style like the way they used make movies in the 70's. A character driven story with slick camera shots that you can focus on and enjoy.

A different take on the Dario Argento classic. Kind of artsy and moody. Its hard not to compare it to the original because the Argento version was so creepy and had a weird color palette that was so effective. The new film has it's merits when viewed as a stand alone film.

What a beautiful piece of filmmaking. A gut-wrenching movie accompanied by panoramic cinematography. Watching this movie you literally feel the cold and the pain of the characters. I have never heard of this director, but it was executed with realism and grit. The 4K transfer is out of this world. I noticed it right off the bat. The sharpness, detail, and depth is greatly improved over the 1080 blu ray. Folks, you got to get this one.

The Martian is fun to watch. It has it's moments during serious and tense scenes, but the humorous parts were a bit tacky . The scenes where the main character keeps complaining about the disco music that he has to listen to was tiring. I mean okay we get, enough already. The 4K master of this film does have a noticeable upgrade. It's worth a look.

Fear The Walking Dead: Fourth Season is a must see, even though at times it can be frustrating to watch. You know what I mean,"why did they make those decisions, whats wrong with these people". I guess everything is done to serve the story to continue the story ark. Yet it is still an addictive show, especially now with the two series combining with each other. This latest season felt more like the regular Walking Dead series than "Fear". Must be something to do with the "Morgan" character and the locations used. Anyways I can't help but wonder whats going to happen next, is everybody eventually going to meet each other. Are they ever going to get to Virginia.

Cliffhanger is one of my favorite action flicks. It was an eye-popping wild ride at the time I saw this back 1993 and it still is today. Cliffhanger keeps getting better with every new format its been released in and this new 4K blu ray takes it up another notch. This 4K transfer is the finest I have ever seen it in. The details in the mountainscapes, snow, and faces are astounding. Oh! and the sound, folks, careful when turning up the volume. The bass on this transfer will task your subwoofer. My oh my!.

Finally, the version I had been waiting for. Th original theatrical version remastered in 4K. Superman-The Movie has never looked better. Yes, it's an older title and the age of the film shows in the transfer in some of the scenes, but overall it looks superb. This goes for the sound too. Nice stereo separation and noticeable surrounds.

What training goes with this? Will your Apple Technician help set up this computer?
When I purchased my original MacBook Pro 11 years ago I had absolutely no experience with computers. The Apple technicians at the Apple store that I purchased my computer from gave me a series tutorials on the basics of keystrokes and functions. Depending on what you want to do with your new computer. The tutorials can be very in-depth or just a familiarization or both. When I bought my new current computer at Best Buy I asked a few questions just to get started but for the most part, I just carried over what I already new from my original computer. However. It is very likely that I will be asking or signing up for more tutorials to get a better understanding of this very new and upgraded computer.
