Adventure with a twist
on November 9, 2019
Posted by: BAMM1956
Verified Purchase:Yes
First I read the book in the 1970s. Then I saw the movie when it war released in the theater. Always have been fascinated about a ship turned upside down and the subsequent search for escape. The sets of everything upside down was interesting to me. A good cast of actors were gathered for this movie. The movie appears a little dated at this point, but still I have always enjoyed the story.

A field trip to Europe with his classmates was supposed to provide Peter Parker (Tom Holland) with a well-earned respite from his superhero alter-ego of Spider-Man. But when he's recruited by superspy Nick Fury (Samuel L. Jackson), Spidey is soon back on the job and teaming up with the InchMysterioInch-us Quentin Beck (Jake Gyllenhaal)-apparently a hero from an alternate universe-for a dangerous mission that may not be what it appears. Zendaya, Jon Favreau, Marisa Tomei co-star in this fun-filled Marvel sequel.

Enjoyable

This release offers a variety of fun action sequences mixed with lighthearted humor and effective melodrama. However, the MVP of the story is Mysterio, a new character to the MCU who is incredibly well-realized. The sequence featuring Spider-Man caught in a series of Mysterio’s illusions (with a touch of horror dropped in) is quite disorienting and effective. The other supporting characters also have their time to shine, especially Ned and MJ. And the film ends on such an amazing cliffhanger that it makes the next chapter in the Spider-Man franchise even more anticipatory.

X-MEN DARK PHOENIX - ULTRA HD - After returning from outer space, Jean Grey finds herself at odds with fellow members of the X-Men. The rift occurs because a cosmic blast turns Jean into a godlike being, and her newfound powers are the complete opposite of benign. The diabolical force inside her gradually corrupts her kind soul and understanding. With Jean targeting the friendly mutants she loves most, the X-Men must take a stand. They have to stop Jean from causing further destruction, or Jean will be used by otherworldly entities. These aliens are adamant about gaining control over the entire world. 20th CENTURY FOX Run Time 115 minutes

The film often warrants the negative reviews, but it does not stink, either. The acting is solid throughout. We’ve already seen some of this storyline in the 2006 film “X-Men: The Last Stand.”
As one might imagine, a superhero movie should be perfect for a 4K UHD viewing experience, even if the end result was only upscaled from a 2K digital intermediate. In this case, it’s a mixed bag as some of the night scenes especially the New York City, 5th Avenue battle between the mutants are too dark for intense detail to pop, and interior scenes suffer from a slightly too yellow coloring that seems out of place. Despite those disappointments, the movie does visually shine in other places within in the movie.

Awesome keyboard
on November 7, 2019
Posted by: BAMM1956
Verified Purchase:Yes
Bought this gaming keyboard for my grandson who plays video games on the PC a lot. After plugging the keyboard into the USB port of the computer, his first comment was that this was "sick." Sick in this case meant awesome. He enjoyed being able to select the RGB backlighting mode and the mechanical keys are very responsive to the individual clicks.

The large screen is bright and clear. Being a touch screen is an added bonus. Bought for my daughter who is starting graduate school. The sales associate recommended this computer as being one that would hold up to being transported back and forth between home and classroom.

Mainly bought this one because my wife is a huge Marvel Avengers fan. She has watched the movie several times already and says that she still cries during certain scenes. She would highly recommend it to anyone who is immersed in the Marvel Universe.

Great remote
on August 17, 2019
Posted by: BAMM1956
Verified Purchase:Yes
I bought this one to replace an older version of Logitech Harmony remote. The MyHarmony website made it easy to transfer my settings from the old to the new. The buttons on the 665 seems to be a bit more responsive and more durable. I am happy with this purchase. Having one remote that can control all of the devices is the way to go.

Classic in 4K

Winner of 5 Academy awards. The 4K copy of the movie shines on the UHD format. The film's 12-bit Dolby Vision color enhancement brings the movie to life with spectacular results. The Dolby Atmos soundtrack is exceptional. It's large, it's clear, it's not lacking in any area.

Bought the blu-ray version to replace my original DVD copy. Although the 1080p upgrade quality isn't as good as hoped for, it is acceptable as is as the audio quality. The surround sound is used sparingly, but effectively.

I bought the blu-ray copy to replace my original DVD copy. The 1080p transfer quality is so-so, but the audio is much better than the DVD copy that I had. You gotta love all of the weapons used in this movie.

Do the buttons light up?

The buttons do light up, but in my opinion, even in the dark, they are dim and a bit hard to see.

Insignia TV Stand for Most Flat-Panel TVs Up to 70": Keep your home theater organized with this attractive stand, which holds a flat-panel TV up to 70" or 125 lbs. and features 6 shelves and 2 doors to neatly conceal components. Metal, glass and wood construction provides stability.
 

when I got the cabinet home it was missing the center section which held the shelves. how can I get that section?

If you are referring to the two vertical dividers that creates the three sections of the TV stand, be sure that they are not "hiding" in a cardboard section. They are somewhat think and light weight. I had set mine aside thinking I was just laying cardboard aside when they were actually contained within the cardboard.

Can I return this item if it doesn't work in the space? Not sure if I'll assemble myself (probably not) or use geek squad) Just want to make sure I can return if I don't like, since I've not seen it in person.

I think you should be able to return it as long as you are within the time frame of BB return policy. Just know that this product is pretty heavy when disassembled and in the box. I wouldn't want to be moving or hauling it around much. As far as assembly, it's rather easy to do, it just takes a while.

I don't understand the television sizing for each stand. If the base of the television fits on the stand top and it meets the weight requirement, then why couldn't I fit my 76 inch television on this stand or any other?

You could put a bigger TV on the stand than recommended, however if the length of the screen goes out further that the length of the TV stand, it could be possible to walk by and brush against the side of the TV and knock it over since it would extend beyond the side of the stand.
