Years after it's release it is still a wonderfully funny flick! What more can you ask of a movie than to remain enjoyable through the years?
I have the Laser Disc but decided to buy the Blu Ray in the event my third (and last) Laser Disc Player goes the way of the Dodo. This is an excellent comedy and one that I have enjoyed over the years and firmly believe I shall continue to do so.
Oh, I know...I know. Some people just want to "stream" their movies. Well, when your Wifi goes buy buy (for whatever reason) I can still be enjoying my films on disc. Laser Disc. DVD. 4K UHD Blu Ray and Blu Ray.
So yup. I highly recommend this film and the price is right too.

I usually purchase Geek Squad coverage for myself and loved ones. Why? Because I, the purchaser of both the product and coverage, get peace of mind for very little outlay.
I had to use my coverage a few times and each of those times I received a new vacuum, cell phones, keyboard and all-in-one remote control because each of those items had failed.
Of course I immediately bought a warranty on the new items and once again I had (and gave) peace of mind.

I bought this for my daughter and her husband to use in their new home. I too have a Dyson vacuum and so I highly recommend this you those of you out there that may (and really SHOULD) be reading this excellent, albeit brief, review.
This thing flat sucks up dirt and pet hair. Mine does and my daughter says their Dyson does too! It's a vacuum and it vacuums like not other vacuum unless you're talking 'bout a Dyson vacuum!
Buy one! It really is THAT good at doing what a vacuum should do, i.e., VACUUM!

I got this after watching it with my brother and sister-in-law...I have to see that after viewing this fine and funny film I was unable to sit for days because...I laughed my _ _ _ off! ;-)
It is a very funny film, one that I am sure I will enjoy several times a year. Highly recommended as my brother would not have me watch junque.

These excellente' speakers fit like a glove in the doors and on the rear deck of my 2011 Ford Mustang. They are a vast improvement in sound quality and to be honest (as I always am), I had to change the EQ setting from "Jazz" to "flat" as their reproduction of bass notes on Big Band Swing and Real Jazz is so far above the stock units that my door shook.
Highly recommended? You bet your sweet bippy!
These were installed today and while I am disappointed that the pair of Kicker 8" subs that were SUPPOSED to fit beneath these in the same two doors did not, I am thrilled beyond measure that these speakers deliver enough to keep me happy when listening to Jazz!
Did I mention that I reeeeeeeeeeeeeally recommend these? Yup! I do!
But this story is not quite over as next up for the Mustang will be new amplification all 'round. Stay tuned, my friends...Trust me. I know what I'm doin' when I'm reviewin'.

Samsung - Galaxy S21 Ultra 5G 512GB (Unlocked) - Phantom Black
Galaxy S21 Ultra 5G is crafted so you don~t need to choose between video and photo. With a single tap, you can pull super-clear stills straight from high-resolution 8K video. Or if you~re looking to capture stunning photos, the 108MP camera feels like you~ve brought your own professional studio with you. Galaxy S21 Ultra 5G, designed to be epic in every way.
Does Samsung in general and this model in particular work well with Android Auto? My Motorola Z3 Play is awful in this regard and I am thinking of returning to Apple because of that. Thanks!

Motorola - Edge 256GB (Unlocked) 2021 - Nebula Blue
The Motorola edge is the perfect combination of a high-quality 6.8~ Max Vision display that lets you watch shows on the largest display in its class. The insanely fast 144Hz refresh rate looks super smooth. Plus, true-to-life colors with improved brightness and contrast.
Does this work with Android Auto or not? The reason i ask is that I have a Motorla Z3 Play that doesn't play well with Android Auto at ALL. I had an iPhone and may go back but want to know about this model and Android Auto. Thanks!

Does this vacuum empty itself and go to its own charging system when it’s done
Nope. It's kinda like a baby in that you have to change the poopy diapers. It takes approximately 33.3232949349434 seconds for me to do this so I bet you'll be just fine!

Does this vacuum work on a 5 GHz WiFi
No it does not. If you have a Mesh System WiFi you will have to go into the router and separate the two frequencies in order for your vacuum to see the 2.4 frequency and then all will be groovy! At least that's how we did it on mine and my daughters and they work just fine. I believe one of the factors behind this using the 2.4 may be that range/distance/strength of transmission is greater on the lower frequency.

To further clarify my question regarding the battery, is it soldered onto the motherboard or is it connected via a ribbon cable and a molex-type connector? Please let me know as this is a VERY important detail to me. I get the RAM part and find it odd that anyone would solder memory to the board as if you have a memory failure you are screwed.

Thanks for the answer but perhaps I was not clear enough. Is the battery hard-soldered onto the board or is it attached via a ribbon cable and a molex-type connector to the board? If soldered, I must pass. Either way thank you for the previous answer and I look forward to hearing from you on this.

Sony - BDP-S6700 Streaming 4K Upscaling Wi-Fi Built-In Blu-ray Player - Black
This Sony BDP-S6700 Blu-ray player with 4K upscaling has built-in super Wi-Fi through MIMO. This lets you stream live from online services. Built-in Bluetooth and SongPal Link stream movies and music or connect your devices through HDMI, coaxial output, USB or Ethernet. This Sony Blu-ray player with 4K upscaling also offers child lock and parental controls.
I’m getting an error message stating that the BluRay and 3D BluRay discs I’m using are not compatible. I confirmed that they are Region A so could the issue be they I’m using a regular HDMI cable?
This is not a 3D capable player so it will not work on 3D discs. While there are bandwidth concerns for some 4K cables, I don't think this is a problem with Blu Ray discs. Of course I could be wrong and I have experienced problems with some Blu Ray and standard DVD where the player identifies the disc as unreadable and classifies it as a "CD-ROM". This upsets me no end as these discs worked fine in the past. If you wish to try a cable that is rated higher then you could purchase one meant for 4K data transfer rates (and NO! A fancy cable with really pretty connectors and the like is not needed, just the bandwidth transfer specs are) and see if it works but as this is a Blu Ray player that upscales to a faux 4K, that may not do a thing for you. I hope this helps.

Can I use a regular HDMI cable with this unit?
I don't see why not, so yes! I have heard and bought cables with different ratings but this is a Blu Ray player that can "upscale" (think "Faroudja line doubling") to 4K. My brother reports no problems so far with his and he doesn't have any special cables that I am aware of. And yes, he would tell me. So then. This is a great player and should have no problems working with a standard HDMI cable. I hope this helps!
