The Plot is convoluted, however, the volcano and bombardment of Pompeii look really nice. Always good to see Emily Browning.

Pirates in Space!! Has good production values for CGI. Decent plot line. Could be an origin story, but who knows. It was until $15.

Mystery Science Theater 3000: XXIX [4 Discs] [DVD]
This collection includes four episodes of Mystery Science Theater 3000 that were never released during the show's heyday. The show follows a team of puppets who delivered witty one-liners while watching films long before the days of social media and internet comments.

3D decent. Story line of bit of a stretch. Mainly bought this because of the 3D, though I did wait until it was on sale.

Decent 3D. I was not a Captain America fan in my youth, however, The Avengers movie made me one. Hope he's not killed off anytime soon, but I think he will be. A good Cap series for TV would be a companion to Agent Carter. AC takes place at the beginning of the Cold War. A series of Captain America and Howling Commandos could be a great WWII series.

I had purchased this set of 3D glasses along with another to check to see how either would work with my Samsung 3D TV. I could not get these to work with my set. So. I can not give an accurate rating.

Can you record only bits and pieces of different vhs tapes to a dvd?

I have several videos of my daughter growing up and at various events/competitions. I want to transfer from vhs to dvd only the parts including her. I would like to prepare one video on dvd for her wedding reception.
Yes. However. I think this can only be done in DVD+R recording mode since you will be swapping out tapes to get to the desire sections. I would suggest having the VHS tapes set to the desired locations before starting to avoid searching in the middle of a recording session. Another suggestion would be to construct a single VHS tape with the various events and then covert that tape over to DVD. Of course that would require a second VHS recorder. Good luck.

Can I recored movies off of my TV

Want to record some of the pay for view movies we buy can this recorder do it?
It is easier if you have a DVR. Then transfer the recording through "out" to DVD/VHS "in". The quality will not be as good, I'm afraid.

What is the difference between DVR620 and DVR620KU

DVR620 is the model # Best Buy sells on-line. DVR620KU is the model # in store. Two different Best Buy employees (in store) told me a converter box is not required for recording to VHS with the
DVR620KU. Are they mistaken? I do not have cable.
I think you at least need an antennae to record any anything from the air, however, as long as it is wired correctly, everything should be OK. Good Luck.

capabilities of this device

I notice specs always mention "your" movies or "your" VHS tapes. Using this device, can I make DVD copies of commercial VHS tapes, tapes that I have purchased? Or am I limited to converting only non-commercially made VHS tapes? If I cannot convert commercial tapes with this device, is there a converter out there that will without using a computer? Thanks.
Not that I know of. I think only home made VHS tapes or locally recorded tapes can be converted to DVDs.
