WWII Pacific Theatre Explodes in Blu-ray
on September 21, 2020
Posted by: Spectre
Verified Purchase:Yes
Another great series looking at WWII. Hanks and Spielberg pull no stops at action and fine attempts at what the war must have appeared like to those brave men who confronted the stress and horrors in person. For me, I could have done without so much none-battle zone story points. I realize it was meant to add depth to the series and characters. It seemed to "soap-opera-like". Not necessary for the overarching conflicts, characters, and purpose of the series. That doesn't mean I gave it a 4 for that reason. But, I'm really comparing it to the well-produced adaptation of "The Band of Brothers". If you haven't watched it, then you must if you think "The Pacific" is good.

Verified Purchase:Yes
Inexpensive, super-easy to install. And works fine. Of course, not like a factory installed phone-car connection. But, my mom likes it and uses it with ease.

Nice Budget Microphone
on May 7, 2020
Posted by: Spectre
Verified Purchase:Yes
This mic is very easy to use and has a fairly good quality sound to it. Would I use it to record music? Probably not. Basic Vlogging or YouTube use? Yeah, it would work for that. Certainly great for video conferencing.

Good All-Around Lens
on May 7, 2020
Posted by: Spectre
Verified Purchase:Yes
I call this 16-50mm Sony lens a quality lens: sharpness, compactness, and cost all align for the end result. It's not the sharpest lens in the Sony E-mount, to be sure, but for the price and size it's a pretty much must-have in the camera bag for any Sony a6XXX camera owner.

Go, Go, Goonies!
on March 31, 2020
Posted by: Spectre
Verified Purchase:Yes
I went to the theater to watch The Goonies when it was first released. I enjoyed it but didn't think it was the greatest movie ever. Funny though, it kind of grows on a person, becomes more fun with age. And it's cool to watch with your children over and over as they grow up. A classic is like that. The Blu-ray release from Best Buy is worth it. What more do I need to say? You Goonies!

Rockin' and Rollin' George Lucas' Movie
on August 30, 2019
Posted by: Spectre
Verified Purchase:Yes
An interesting, light-hearted look at a circa 1958 California small-town teenagers' night before many of their lives change following summer post high school graduation. George Lucas combined 1950's era pop music with street machines cruising the town while weaving the conflicts and mischievous vignettes of several recent high school grads. Lucas accomplished a first with a music soundtrack blanketing the bold color scheme of documentary style shooting. Thanks in large part to cinematographer Haskell Wexler's keen visual work. Today's audience may find this a "boring" movie. It is a story you have to engage and stay with to have a chance to enjoy.

Science Fiction Cinema Landmark
on July 22, 2019
Posted by: Spectre
Verified Purchase:Yes
Anyone who is a sci-fi (there was a time when fans hated that abbreviation) movie lover has seen this Kubrick film. It doesn't have the best story ever. It's plods along at times, simply for viewers to soak in the scenes of tech and special effects. The director gives drawn out shots to give a believable, even possible space environment. Maybe that's is its greatest accomplishment. Aside from the trippy bookend imagery. The HDR release adds to the revamped "crispness" of the movie. Worth buying it if you love only half the shots in 2001: A Space Odyssey.

A Basic Blu-Ray/Streaming Device
on April 5, 2019
Posted by: Spectre
from Illinois
Verified Purchase:Yes
Looking at the player in the lower end of the spectrum of BD with streaming capabilities I find this one to be reputable at the price. Sony is generally quite dependable and of above-board quality. What is truly sad, though, is when I placed my 9 year old, $130 LG BD/streaming player next to this new Sony, wow; the LG had a metal bottom plate, heavier components, almost twice the size. The new Sony is a big hunk of plastic in comparison. Don't get me wrong, the Sony at around $65 is fine, but "they ain't like they used to make 'em". It's a "short-life-throw-away-world".

I have Spectrum which has up to 200 mps. Will I get the full speed with this router
It depends on several factors. In short, yes, or at least close. Provided the distance of the cable from the Spectrum gateway/device is close enough to the Netgear router and the end device (smartphone, television, media streaming unit, etc.) is also fairly nearby with few barriers (walls mainly).

Isolate distracting noises when listening to music with these Samsung Galaxy Buds+ earphones. The built-in woofer and tweeter in each bud deliver exceptional sound accuracy for a truly immersive experience, while the noise-canceling microphones ensure your voice is loud and clear during calls. These light blue Bluetooth Samsung Galaxy Buds+ earphones feature adjustable tip sizes for a snug, comfortable fit.
What is the range on these? Do I have to have my phone right with me or can I walk away say like 80 or 100 ft away. I don’t want to drop calls going out to the backyard if my phone is on the charger in the house
It may vary a bit depending upon what brand/model of smartphone you are using. Most Bluetooth devices (like these earbuds) have a typical range of 25' to 30' plus some. Without any barriers, like a wall or windows, you may reach close to 40' in receiving range. Using only the smartphone Bluetooth and the earbuds I doubt you will reach 80'.
