Meet the MVP of TVs! The award-winning U8 Series Mini-LED smart display from Hisense just got even better. This model is packed with lots of exciting features that dramatically improve the color, contrast and detail of every picture. Think: double the local dimming zones of our previous version, Up to Peak Brightness 3000, QLED Quantum Dot color technology, Dolby Vision HDR and Anti-Glare Low Reflection technology. Bring the sounds of the cinema directly to your living room with Dolby Atmos and a 50W 2.1.2 multi-channel audio system. We even equipped the U8 with a NEXTGEN TV ATSC 3.0 tuner and Wi-Fi 6E router compatibility, making it virtually future-proof. Plus, level up your gaming with 144Hz VRR panel, Dolby Vision Gaming and FreeSync Premium Pro.

This TV is a cinephiles dream come true.

So my 65” tv in my living room I’ve had for 4 years died and I needed to replace it. After buying this Hisense 65U8N I’m glad that happened, all I can say is Wow!!! I am a movie fanatic and this TV does everything I would want a TV to do. The build quality and astetics are museum quality, features like a heavy metal adjustable hight center pedestal, 2.1.2 built in Atmos sound, minimalist bezel, metalic like backlit sleek remote. This TV is like having the best Cineplex in your living room, with Dolby Vision IQ and IMAX Enhanced I have the best 2 theater formats to utilize as well as HDR10 and HDR10+, all the bases are covered. No matter what movie i watch, I’m assured its going to look amazing. Speaking of looks, the black levels are amazing, I bought this set knowing it had 2000 diming zones and it really showcases that especially in dark scenes. This TV is bright, yes very bright, the contrast and colors are reference quality. This TV rivals my OLED in my bedroom with black levels, but has more color pop because of the brightness. I couldn’t recommend this TV more, the value for the quality and performance is there. Rival sets cost double the price, and I have piece of mind with a 2 year manufacturer warranty. If you are looking for what may be the best TV for 2024, especially for movie lovers, look at this Hisense.

We're taking those spooky Halloween eyes to the next level. These 20 inches long Animated eyes from Occasions appear to open and close at random. Programmed LED lights turn on and off in sequence to make the eyes open and close. ***Item does not have option for color/design for purchase.. One of the two colorways will be shipped.***

Not as Advertised...beware
on October 9, 2021
Posted by: danran1271
Verified Purchase:Yes
Very cheap feel to these, I'm worried about using them outside. The eyes are always visible with just a flashing light that kind of makes them look like they blink, but not great looking. Also buyer beware the listing makes it look like you can change the eyes to different styles, you can't and no where on the listing tells you it is one or the other and you have no way of choosing and it comes in a plain white box. I would have preferred the Cat ones, but I have no way of knowing I will get them if I ordered another set.

PATHETIC EARTHLINGS... WHO CAN SAVE YOU NOW? Super producer Dino de Laurentiis (Dune, Barbarella) brought Alex Raymond's beloved cartoon strip and the long running movie serial to the big screen with celebrated director Mike Hodges (Get Carter, Black Rainbow) at the helm, in a delirious space opera, where Flash is King of the Impossible! Merciless Emperor Ming (Max von Sydow) decides to wreak havoc on Earth in a moment of cruel boredom. Boarding a rocket as a means of escape, star quarterback Flash Gordon (Sam J. Jones), Dale Arden (Melody Anderson) and Dr. Hans Zarkov (Topol) find themselves on Mongo. Taken prisoner Flash must save Dale from becoming Ming's concubine, avoid the amorous intention's of Ming's wicked daughter Aura (Ornella Muti) and unite the warring Kingdoms of Mongo. With endlessly repeatable dialogue, inimitable camp style, the sonic stylings of Queen and a delightful band of characters and actors playing them it's no wonder Flash Gordon has become one of the most beloved sci-fi spectacles of it's era with directors such as Edgar Wright, Taika Waititi and Seth MacFarlane paying tribute to it in their work.

Pure cheese now in stunning 4K.
on August 29, 2020
Posted by: danran1271
Verified Purchase:Yes
First off, everyone should know this is a 1 disc 4k version. There is no additional bluray bonus disc, just 1 4k disc with some bonus features on the disc. Arrow has released this 3 (technically 4 if we count 1080p bluray release) ways. 1st as limited collectors set with 2 with added goodies. 2nd as a 2 disc 4k and Life After Flash 1080p bluray with additional bonus features and no added swag. 3rd just 1 4k disc.
Now the picture quality is stunning, the colors pop and the fine detail is there. Studio Canal did a great job with the restoration. My only complaint is the 5.1 mix. It is muddy and low. The movie sounds better with the original 2.0 mix.
I highly recommend this disc. I remember seeing this movie in theaters and back in 1980 the film on the big screen didn't look as good as this disc.

Felt too rushed for a Rambo movie
on December 27, 2019
Posted by: danran1271
Verified Purchase:Yes
I am a fan of everything Rambo, but this movie missed the mark. It seemed like it was edited down too much to make any sense at all and once the movie gets into its climax is when the magic happens. Would have liked to see more of that.

Can you a more addictive game?
on June 21, 2019
Posted by: danran1271
Verified Purchase:Yes
This title was on sale for $19.99 and I had to jump on it. What an amazing experience this game really is. The game play is challenging at first, but once you get used to the controls, it is one if the best experiences ever. I started to play it thinking I would spend an hour....Five hours later I was still engaged. If you don't own this buy it.

Great way to save on cable bill.

I decided to purchase a compatible modem to work with my Comcast service. I was paying $13 a month and by buying this I will be getting my money back with the savings per month. The quality of this modem is better than the rental one. The modem was one of the easiest to set up. Very plug and play. I was worried I would have to buy a separate router to hit spots in my larger home, but the built in Wi-Fi was strong enough. I highly recommend this modem.

Great looking SteelBook, Great looking movie
on April 5, 2019
Posted by: danran1271

Verified Purchase:Yes
What a phenomenal steelbook. The artwork and design is so much better in person than what you see here online. Now the remastering of the movie in 4k is spectacular, you see slight nuances that were hard to notice in previous versions. The director did manipulate some scenes so if you are a purist keep any older copies of the movie you have. The corrections I feel made the film better.

This is the only way to view this film

Verified Purchase:Yes
I am saddened by the new wave of not supporting 3d movies. The lack of support here in the states has been disappointing. I was happy to see WB and Best Buy had this movie available in 3D. Except for the fact WB decided to not include IMAX or Atmos to this version it is the only way to watch this movie. The amount of depth and pop make the viewing experience so immersive you forget you are dry, watching from the safety of your living room.
