    Bubba Ho-Tep to premiere on Monster HD on 10/30 at 9:30pm EDT

    Wow. It only took a month to find someone else who appreciates the show's greatness. It'd be cool to get all 10 of us together, but they would really have to turnover the population at the nation's mental health institutions for that to happen :)

    Now that Star Wars is coming on DVD (WS) ...

    Who cares? These aren't the real versions anyway. Here's a rundown of all the changes. http://www.somethingawful.com/articles.php?a=2374

    No NFL Network HD

    Seriously, we're not missing anything. What I saw from last season looked like crap. Apparently it's 16 mm based film transfer.

    Fox-HD: NFL Football Game at 4pm EST

    LA studio is 480p still, I beleive. Cowboys/Vikes game is iffy, just like Skins game. Some shots look great, some iffy. I don't know if it's a mix of cameras or what. Maybe it's just Newscorp trying to confuse everyone as to what HD is really supposed to look like.

    Fox-HD: NFL Football Game at 4pm EST

    Getting Redskins/Buc OTA here in Lubbock. DD 5.1 is somewhat underwhelming, but HD is great. Long shots look SD while game action is beautiful.

    ABC Friday Night Hurricanes VS Seminoles will it be in HD?

    Could you imagine how good either of those teams would be with decent coaching? That was an exciting finish, but it was a boring game. Not good defense, but poor discipline by each sides offense.

    ABC Friday Night Hurricanes VS Seminoles will it be in HD?

    Stuttering here. But since the ABC affiliate in Lubbock uses an upconvert of its analog for the digital station (broadcasted on a tower connected to a 9V battery), I don't know how much help that is.

    ABC Friday Night Hurricanes VS Seminoles will it be in HD?

    This game should definitely be in HD. That way we'll have highly detailed images for future America's Most Wanted episodes.

    ULTRA-HD: Reservation Requires Premiere Episode 9:30pm EST

    :clap Funny stuff Darrell. I'm always amazed how supposedly intellegent urbanites can be convinced such stupid things are cool. It's almost like a Yuppie competition to waste the most money on the stupidest thing. I may be unhip, but my buddies and I always cook the squirrels we shoot before...

    InVOOM-HD (999): Republican National Convention On VOOM starting 8/30 @ 10am EST

    Really? Well, I guess my comment on USA Today still holds true.

    HD Cinema (103): Mad Max 6pm & 10pm EST

    I don't want to beat a dead horse, but I just can't trust the PG to try and plan on watching this. Also, this is nt nearly as good as Road Warrior, but much better than Thunderdome, imo

    InVOOM-HD (999): Republican National Convention On VOOM starting 8/30 @ 10am EST

    Apparently there was some conservative wag doing a similar article during the DNC. Obviously, he was not as famous (or infamous) as Moore, so it got no play. This doesn't hurt anyone. Republicans love to hate Moore, Moore likes attention, and USA Today had no credibility to lose anyway.

    Bubba Ho-Tep to premiere on Monster HD on 10/30 at 9:30pm EDT

    Bruce Campbell is the most underrated actor of this generation. The man is pure genius :) PS I think I am among only 10 humans in the entire world who actually enjoyed Briscoe County Jr., so perhaps YMMV.

    PG shows "Montenegro" on ch 102 - didn't happen!

    I have told a CSR that it's an issue, and I assume Sean and the other mods. have told their variuos contacts. I think it is absolutely amazing this problem has taken so long to be fixed. I hardly watch the Cinema 10s anymore b/c I never know what's going to be on.

    NBC-HD: XXVIII Summer Olympics : Soccer, Track and Field, Basketball, & Diving 8/29

    The South Koreans really have some bad Olympic history with the US. 1. Worst thing I ever saw in any Olympics was 1988 Seoul where Roy Jones Jr. lost the decision on a fight that he so clearly dominated. Victory awarded to South Korean. There had been a brawl a few days earlier b/c fans...

    NBC-HD: XXVIII Summer Olympics : Soccer, Track and Field, Basketball, & Diving 8/29

    I would say I've only actually watched 45 minutes of the Olympics, but I keep up a little in the paper. This whole Hamm thing is why I don't think Gymnastics, Figure Skating, Diving, etc. are sports. Are they competitions? Yes. Are the competitiors athletes? Very much so. But the...

    Formula One on Voom?

    Do you mean the Northeast of Canada, or the US? Because I'm pretty sure the #1 team in both NY and Boston are baseball teams. You're right about football. Both cities are good NFL cities, but not at all for CFB. Just my opinion, but a company with only 40k subs. won't be making any big...

    High Definition Tractor-Pull TV Network Planned?

    This would be bad news for you, V. If people knew more about the wonders of duct tape and the benefits of southern engineering, the world would need less professional engineers. ;)

    Sept premium channel premieres

    So much Batman. Is it OAR? "Mask of the Phantasm" is a cool movie for those of us that were young enough to enjoy that iteration of the TV cartoon.

    The 39 HD channel mark has been reached!

    Does 341 count? Not everyone gets it. So if you subscribe, you don't necessarily have the option of subscribing to 39 HD channels.

    Voom F***ed up PG Strikes Again

    Sean, I'm not trying to flame or anything. But don't you think that Voom's inability to coordinate with Tribune shows an amazing amount of incompetence? I mean this has been going on for weeks, and they still can't fix it.

    Which HD Cinema Movies have you seen?Would you like to post your review of the movie?

    The Good, The Bad, & The Ugly, Fistful of Dollars: I don't know if it's data rate or bad transfer, but noisy PQ. Non-OAR. Very good sound on both. Both great films that get knocked down to 3.5 b/c of technical deficiencies in presentation. If you've got a good DVD player and a nice copy of...

    NBC-HD: XXVIII Summer Olympics : Opening Ceremonies 9pm EST

    there's supposedly some "tasteful" nudity. I wonder if they'll show it.
