Ed's View - Old Movies and HDTV - The Dilemma of Sound

By Ed Milbourn • May 18, 2:26pm

Like many, I love (most) old movies. And again, like many, I have accumulated a significant collection of classics - most on VCR's and on the old RCA CED video disc format (RIP). With the advent of HDTV and advanced film restoration technologies, the BD and DVD versions of these movies are - for the most part - spectacular. However, the one generally disappointing aspect that mars the total HD experience of these productions is the disappointing sound quality. This is especially true with...

Blu-ray Review: Haywire

By The HT Guys • May 18, 2:13pm

A last-minute mission in Dublin turns deadly for stunning secret operative Mallory Kane when she realizes she's been betrayed -- and that her own life is no longer safe. Now, to outwit her enemies, she'll simply have to outlast them.

HDTV and Home Theater Podcast - Podcast #531: Quantum Dot Display Technology

By The HT Guys • May 18, 4:47am

OLED TVs may have stolen the show at CES 2012, but just when you think it’s safe to be an early adopter and pick one up, you might want to hold off. There’s a new display technology on the horizon that backers claim will not only outperform OLED, but also be cheaper to manufacture. And it has a much cooler name - it’s called Quantum Dot display or QLED. And if that doesn’t sound like you’re living in the future, we don’t know what does.

Blu-ray Review: Back to the Future Trilogy

By The HT Guys • May 16, 2:54pm

In this classic sci-fi adventure from director Robert Zemeckis, eccentric inventor Doc Brown (Christopher Lloyd) turns a DeLorean into a time machine that inadvertently sends his young friend, Marty McFly (Michael J. Fox), 30 years into the past. While stuck in the 1950s, Marty disrupts his parents' destiny and risks throwing the time-space continuum completely out of whack. The only way back to 1985 now is to get mom and dad to pucker up.

The Back to the Future Trilogy is a cultural milestone in American film. It captured what the 1980’s were, what we thought the past was, and what we thought the future could bring. Most people would agree that the first movie is the best, and the series degrades as it goes along. I’m not saying...
