    Some Real News :): Abbott & Costello Meet Frankenstein

    :) My Favorite Frankenstein & one of my favorite A&C features. Most of the Universal Studios monster mash is there to mix it up with the boys. Good clean fun. Monsters-HD: Abbott and Costello Meet Frankenstein ***+ (1948, Comedy) Aspect ratio 1.37 : 1 Summary: Universal...

    Starz-HD East: Kill Bill: Vol. 1 9pm EDT

    At least it was framed properly, I'll take an upconvert over a 4:3 any day.

    Equator HD is looking up! (More Series for Equator and Animania)

    Amazonian midwives.... Now this is focused content. It's hard to get excited like a teenage adolescent with National Geographic with HotHD on 24x7 :)

    Sept premium channel premieres

    The first showing of the thing wasn't OAR or even 16:9, I think the next was at least formated for widescreen.

    HD Cinema (103): The Man Who Would Be King 6pm & 10pm EST

    It is maybe my second favorite after The Wind & the Lion. This IS an epic. Watching now. I HATE to admit the HDnet showings were in OAR and this mnovie is much better in OAR.

    Unfortunately. Anyone get guide data on Equator yet?

    would you like local channels by satellite on Voom?

    I'll take that bet.

    would you like local channels by satellite on Voom?

    It would make all the SD have a completely static picture (like a placeholder) and the HD channels have a one frame update every five minutes, even if it were mathematically possible. FCC prevents carriage of a single (generally available) network feed per network. Local into Local killed the...

    I got a response from Mark Cuban Re:HDNet...

    At least you are consistent (redundant) in an understatedly unjustifiable & idiotic manner, subjectively (and for comedic effect) of course :yes And don't call me Frank[ly] I think the compelling content on InHD today was A Dog's Day In Manhattan and HDnet is repeats of cancelled series...

    I got a response from Mark Cuban Re:HDNet...

    Well he did say it in a fireside Charlie Chat, it was actually the one that followed the "no compelling HD" chat which rose significant speculation of a potential Voom buy-out (unfounded of course, but side benefit would be getting bandwidth in the bargain). I guess you have had a few bad...

    I got a response from Mark Cuban Re:HDNet...

    Actually Ergen has talked about potetial to get the exclusives. As far as not having justification, I don't need justification to criticize lackluster content. I had it (HDnets) & have it (InHD) and I have a right to a subjective opinion, or is that idiotic too? :shocked And I'm not a...

    I got a response from Mark Cuban Re:HDNet...

    vurbano, I always root for you on AVS against the DirecTV and Dish fanboys, but I am taken aback when my contentions are called idiotic. You basically said if we don't get InHD then you are going elsewhere, just like an apt poster in a different thread talked about I'm leaving Voom if we...

    I got a response from Mark Cuban Re:HDNet...

    I would expect Mr Cuban would be unhappy with that partneer then, but probably not unhappy enough to make a deal with Voom. Except for some sports, Voom specific content = InHD x10 both quantitaively & qualitatively. Aside from a few IMAX presentations, I have rarely watched either one except...

    New HD Channel on VOOM: Equator HD to start 6/15

    Hopefully REAL epics on 107. Actually there are more action/epics movies not on Epics.
  18. R

    You know what offends me about Voom's programming?

    I'ld be happy with real epics on epics, good patriotic war movies, action/adventure fare, Errol Flynn movies (no comments about that other channel), blood, guts, honor, etc. Oh and a SciFi/Fantasy themed movie channel wouldn't hurt, and could keep monsters focused on monsters.

    Which are you favorite exclusive VOOM HD Channels?

    Sean, Could you add the Artsy-Fartsy non-Epics channel to the poll. Ooops, it is there - the incredibly misnamed Epics :) Real epics on Sho HD in OAR.... Four Feathers.

    Was great. Up late but great. Love that OAR.

    What's your favorite HD Channels?

    Rang, I mean PollMaster, would like to have a poll on most misnamed channel, i.e. EPICS :)
  23. R

    EncoreHD and PlayboyHD are now showing in the VOOM guide.

    Guide info on new channels usually takes a couple days to come up. Use zap2it in the mean time.
