Does HD Theater = HDNet Movies

[yardline]

Is HD Theater and HDNet Movies the same channel?

 

[vurbano]

nope, one is owned by the discovery channel people the other by Marc Cuban and HDnet.

Yup HD Theater use to be called Discovery HD Theater, but they found they people were getting the channel confused with Discovery HD, so they dropped the Discovery name from the channel. Most of the shows are from Discovery, TLC and Science channel.

HDNet movies is just movies and only movies (some great movies at times!)

Thats the difference between the two.

 

[vurbano]

usually great old movies.

In fact HD net Movies has a premiere Wed. It's called Red Cliff and is showing before it hits theaters.

I was wondering because last night I finally switched from Ultimate HD package to Silver 200 with HD, but I didn't loose HDNet Movies. Is that a glitch?

HDnet is part of the Platinum package which is now bundled in with standard HD programing....if you add it new....

I think they did that before, it was a while ago. It was a movie about some kids that killed a dog and the dog's owner goes after them...I can't remember the name of it. It was back when I still had cable, so it had to be before June. It wasn't a bad movie.

I looked it up on IMDB. It was titled "Red" and was released in October '08.

They do a premiere just about every month.

According to the HDNet Movies website it will be subtitled. And that is the only way it should be watched.

I think HD Theater needs to change its name. The name totally implies that they play movies. In fact, there is no "theater" aspect to the channel at all.
