Definitive 'Heat'
on January 29, 2021

Verified Purchase:Yes
Michael Mann's super cool neo-noir crime drama has never looked better. This is called the "Director's Definitive Edition" and I absolutely agree. I've owned this movie on VHS (a two tape set!), DVD and I don't foresee any reason to purchase it again after this exquisite blu-ray. Highly recommended.

Great build, just okay comfort

I'm not a gamer but I purchased this gaming chair for my work station. It got great reviews and I liked its high back. Unfortunately, it's not as comfortable as one might think. When reclined a bit it's actually pretty good so I can see playing video games in it could work great. But sitting up straight at a desk and working all day can result in some numbing. It's just not as cushioned as I expected.
However, build quality is excellent. Materials and construction far exceed other chairs I've had. I can see this lasting many, many years. I just wish it was more comfortable for long days of deadlines.

Simply stunning! An incredible film that explodes to life with this gorgeous 4K transfer. Color and shadow detail adds depth and clarity with a slight film grain retained. Very filmic presentation and the sound design is amazing. Highly recommended!

A gorgeous SteelBook, fun movie!

Verified Purchase:Yes
I had this movie on DVD and wasn't really looking to upgrade but this SteelBook design caught my eye and I couldn't pass it up. One of the better SteelBook covers with incredible artwork printed directly on the metal and the text/titles printed on a clear slip case. Looks really slick! The bonus was was getting a pristine and beautiful 4K UHD transfer that kicks the *** of my previous copy. Detail and colors jump right off the screen! Very recommended!

An absolute classic and it has never looked better than on this 4K UHD release. The restoration is phenomenal with great detail and solid black levels. Highly recommended.

Fun flick looks great in 4K
on January 28, 2021
Posted by: ViewThunder
Verified Purchase:Yes
Is 'Venom' ('18) great? No, not really. But it's really fun and entertaining. And Tom Hardy is really giving this roll his all. My overall rating is based on the 4K transfer which is really stunning. My only disappointment is that the copy I got didn't have the rad illustrated cover as pictured. (Which I think is a slip case? Not sure.) My copy came with the standard half Tom Hardy, half Venom cover.

Unlike traditional, circular earbuds, the design of the EarPods is defined by the geometry of the ear. Which makes them more comfortable for more people than any other earbud-style headphones. The speakers inside the EarPods have been engineered to maximize sound output and minimize sound loss, which means you get high-quality audio. The EarPods with Lightning Connector also include a built-in remote that lets you adjust the volume, control the playback of music and video, and answer or end calls with a pinch of the cord.

Wired EarPods work great! Got these for my 13 yr old who specifically requested them. She didn't want to deal with having to keep AirPods charged or possibly lose one. And at twenty bucks are a much better value.

Purchased then upgraded with 'Coda.'

Verified Purchase:Yes
I picked up this 'The Godfather' collection quite awhile ago even though all I really wanted was the first two films. I had never been a fan of Part III. However, in December 2020 Coppola released a brand new "Director's Cut" of the third film titled, 'The Godfather Coda: The Death of Michael Corleone.' So I went out and purchased a copy of this new cut, removed the original theatrical release of Part III from this collection and replaced it with Coppola's new version which, I'm very pleased to say, is a much better film and a true conclusion to the trilogy.

A worthy sequel!

Everything after 1991's 'T2' has been either a let down or just flat out terrible. So when 'Terminator: Dark Fate' came along in 2019 I just ignored it. Jump to late 2020 and after a friend's recommendation I figure I'll give it a shot on Hulu. WOW! I was floored by how much I enjoyed this excellent and worthy sequel to T1 and T2. During the holidays this 4K UHD (which is reference quality in picture/sound) went on sale and I couldn't pass up the opportunity to finally make my Terminator collection a proper trilogy.

Come back with this SteelBook. Or on it.

Zack Snyder's masterwork of violent, visual splendor, '300,' is finally available in 4K! You may not notice a huge uptick in resolution here from the blu-ray but the incredible HDR work that 4K UHD is capable of creates deep, inky shadows with much better contrast and beautifully saturated colors that make this the definitive release. Gorgeous SteelBook artwork as well.
