I read the epic series of Dune many years ago, and have seen a couple of film versions of it. I find this new film to be a good rendition of the book. I was able to get it on sale, and as such it is a good value.

Sony - Core Series 10" 115W Active Subwoofer - Black
With 115W maximum power and a 10" dual-layer mica woofer diaphragm, this Sony Core Series SACS9 active subwoofer produces robust, detailed bass tones. Motion feedback technology promotes optimal signal clarity.
For years I believed that I had no use for a subwoofer, until I came across some articles that explained how it significantly enhanced classical music. So I purchased this Sony subwoofer when it was on sale, to try it out. It turned out to be true - and brought out things I had not heard before in the music! It made the listening experience more pleasurable, and I am glad I made the purchase.

Everything Everywhere All at Once - 4K Blu-Ray [Standard] [4K Ultra HD Blu-ray]
As she braced for an IRS audit, middle-aged ~migr~ Evelyn Wang (Michelle Yeoh) felt a failure as wife, daughter, mother, and businesswoman. It was a heck of a time to discover that she could tap into the abilities of countless variant versions of herself across reality-and that she would need them to conquer a threat poised to collapse it all. Audacious fantasy-action farce from the makers of InchSwiss Army ManInch co-stars Ke Huy Quan, Stephanie Hsu, James Hong, and Jamie Lee Curtis. 132 min. Widescreen; Soundtrack English. Two-disc set.
This film is absolutely incredible! The story is fantastic, and done very well. I have watched it now four times, and find something new each viewing. It will not disappoint!

FLTR95 Sealing Face Masks use a melt-blown polypropylene filter that is highly effective, offering ~95% filtration of airborne particulates @ 0.3+ microns. And, unlike cloth or surgical masks, Sealing Face Masks are designed to reduce particles inhaled by the wearer. The tight face-to-mask seal of the FLTR95 reduces leakage and directs inhaled air through the filter membrane to minimize inhaled particles. Secure fitting ear loops pull the mask back snugly against the face, while the folded form factor and adjustable nose piece conforms well to a variety of face shapes and sizes. The multi-layer construction uses materials selected to deliver the functionality required by demanding wearers. An outer layer provides a barrier against large particles and droplets. The filter layer uses a purpose-built melt-blown polypropylene membrane to capture small particles and aerosols. Lastly, dual comfort layers help to wick moisture and heat from exhaled air away from the mouth and face. FLTR95 masks undergo a rigorous and continuous quality control and testing process to ensure a consistent, reliable standard. They are produced at internationally certified facilities, tested on state-of-the-art technical equipment at FLTR~s QC department, and verified by independent 3rd party test labs. Since face masks can accumulate airborne particles and moisture over time, FLTR95 masks are intended for single use only and can easily be disposed of after use. Not for medical use. This personal protective mask cannot eliminate the risk of contracting infectious disease. Intended for single use only ~ discard after use.
How many layers does this mask have? Nowhere in the Overview or in the Specifications does it explicitly give this information.

Philips - Wireless Over-Ear Noise Canceling Headphones - Black
The Philips PH805 headphones give you control over what you hear and what you don~t, no matter what the day brings you. Enjoy your favorite songs in Hi-Res Audio during your morning workout in wireless freedom. Switch to Google assistant to check your flight information with a touch, and then enjoy your flight in silence by activating noise canceling. And enjoy your videos in high quality sound once you get to the hotel. One set of headphones can now cover all of your needs. With the PH805, you control what you hear and what you don~t hear. A tap to the ear-cup will activate noise cancelation, so you can be enveloped in a shroud of silence when you need to concentrate or rest. If you want to turn the volume down on the world but still hear louder sounds like someone speaking to you, simply activate Awareness Mode with another tap. The PH805 comes with Google Assistant, which allows you to manage your life on the move, without taking out your phone. Just touch the headband to activate it. Open your calendar, read notifications from your phone, call or send messages to friends, or check the weather simply by asking Google Assistant. The PH805 is also a quality headphone set that delivers detailed, high resolution sound, which you can use as your go-to headphones for home or on the go entertainment. Hi-Res Audio means that they are capable of playing back lossless audio at a higher sample rate than most headphones and CDs when connected to a high-res source. The benefits of the PH805 last for a full 30 hours, making them an ideal solution for every situation you find yourself in throughout the day (and night). You get up to 30 hours of play time (or talk time) with noise canceling off, or 25 hours of use with it on. If you need an extra 2 to 6 hours of battery life, 5 to 15 minutes of charging will be enough. The Philips PH805 has you covered. And when you are finally through using the Philips PH805s, they fold right up into a compact travel case, making them convenient to take with you wherever you go.
How much lag is there when these headphones are used to watch tv? Is it noticeable?
