Computers suck. Period. The only two things I enjoy about them are music storage and the internet. All of them have their flaws and strengths.
So, indifferent - but currently using Whinedows XP.
Happy new year to you too, Anchorhead. And hell, to the rest of the board. I'm still here for whatever reason, and don't plan on goin away anytime soon.
I miss my extended family already. And my cheesesteaks. Even my tomato pies. Hell, just the east coast. Shit, even their convenience stores are better - I mean, Wawa? Where the hell are those on the west coast?
Oh yeah, we were on vacation and surprised the family by showing up at the Christmas party. Had a blast, if you can't tell.
Isn't Wrath of Khan supposedly the only one that got a decent restoration out of the Trek films?
Poor guy.
I was gonna sit through the whole thing this year, but most of my friends bailed so I just watched this. No wonder I haven't finished it. He's right, though - why isn't the whole special about Ackmena's cantina? That would have been much more interesting.
I'll vouch that From Russia with Love looks amazing on blu-ray, whether it's the originally intended colors or not. And Dr. No's DVD doesn't look too bad to me, either. Also, captainsolo, keep in mind that any new theatrical prints are likely derived from the Lowry restorations.
As for LALD, while I can't speak for the movie, these screenshots might. Note that the blu-ray shot is given mainly for color reference, as I doubt such a small picture could show the detail improvements.

Very easy to say which one's better, no? If these pictures stretch the forum I'll edit them to links.
Merry Christmas! Grab the E-Eggnog! Throw the e-fruitcakes out the window and hit your neighbor's car! Open some e-gifts!
... bah humbug. xP
I agree with ferris. Who's next - Nicole Olie?
Wait, first C3PX changes his avatar, and then he un-changes it back to the OT one he had? I'm confused more than Bingowings!
Hah, I kind of envy you Sluggo. I wish I could not be into the commercial part of Christmas. I'm a sap for every single part of it. Did I ever make my list? Hmm:
-Hey Arnold Christmas Episode... now if only Nick would air the freakin' thing
-A Christmas Carol (any or every version, but I'm always partial to the Muppet one as proven by the first page)
-It's a Wonderful Life
-How the Grinch Stole Christmas
-A Charlie Brown Christmas
I avoid the claymation ones now, they just tend to annoy me.
I don't either. They take cheese to a whole new level - and this is coming from someone who adores every single version of A Christmas Carol ever.
My local University, UCLA, has sucked for 8 years. I stopped caring after 5 or 6. And no, I won't root for USC. I'm too nerdy for sports anyway.
This may be the silliest reason for not liking a movie, but I was four. It was around Thanksgiving, and it was the first time I was watching ESB. I don't know if it was a TV dinner or something actually palatable, but one of the side dishes included stuffing - I hate stuffing, at least when it's not stuffed in something. And thus, I forever associated Empire with the horrible food - until about 3 years ago.
MistareFusion disagrees with you.
... I did.

Muppet's Christmas Carol (because it is just that awesome)
We did have a rankings thread, but anyone who revives this is good in my book. Heck, the Slugster was already good in my book - this only helps.
Accidental post. bug to note: post reply can work when there's no text. That's rather annoying.
Thanks for stealing my thunder Ripplin. I wanted to.
Any status on the list?
Wide skin would be very nice.
Oh, well don't I feel smart. Sorry if I came off as smug.
Out of his budget.

Not sure how long it goes on for, but it's sure awesome!
An earlier shot would make it easier to tell, ie just a tiny bit sooner after fall off. I can't tell as it is, but my only comparison is youtube so...
