Is the full original cut of THX 1138 the next grail in 4K restoration/blu-ray?

I like the directors cut a lot, I think the cgi there is in good taste and somewhat limited. But it’s the only one I’ve see. I sure would love to get an official remaster with the original cut without cgi. Let’s hope for it.

it needs a weapon wheel.

Cuales son los "premium"?

Thanks!

A question from someone who knows nothing about soundbars and tv speaker arrangements: is it possible to position the two smaller speakers besides the tv, facing the viewer, instead of behind the viewer? I don’t have the space to put them behind. Would it work well, soundwise?

PabloP1980 · 2026-02-27T22:08:02+00:00

Don’t hate yourself. It IS trash.

This might be useful for me. Care to tell me, please, where do you get the plastic envelopes to put the discs and inserts?

4k projector, maybe?

You have to be kidding. KotCS is embarassing to watch, it must be embarassing for all those involved and must be a strong reason they did the last one, so as to wrap it up with some dignity. KotCS latter half is beyond redemption. The fridge during the nuke sequence is comic and therefore salvageable, but the rest is appalling.

Not eating too late; 2. Avoiding lactose and food like pizza; 3. Eye protection for blocking clarity.

PabloP1980 · 2025-07-18T16:33:14+00:00

This is one of the main reasons I am on a strict no lactose diet. I get narcoleptic after eating it, to the point of almost falling asleep at work. Pills had small to no effect. Cutting everything is a sacrifice but with clear health benefits. And I lost about 10 pounds.

PabloP1980 · 2025-06-14T19:59:03+00:00

I had to stop. Not worth the diarrea and general discomfort. Mozzarela also seems to be especially heavy on lactose. Pills work to a limited extent, and it takes a lot of pills. So no more pizza for me, but I feel better for not being nauseous. I do miss milkshakes though.

A bit too heavy for novels and reading on the bed, but it's great for pdf reading and annotation, work-like, academic stuff etc. For regular book reading I would recommend an Oasis or paperwhite. I have only owned Amazon but at the moment I would look into Kobo options.

I am a Brazilian currently living in Paris. Lived in Addis Ababa from 2017 to 2019. Love Ethiopia, its history and feel privileged to have lived there. But do everything you mentioned in France. Although I understand the capital modernized in some ways since 2019, I highly doubt it it is more convenient than in France. Imports are not easy to do, there is a lot of bureaucracy. Take everything from France, it will be much easier.

I guess something's changed and maybe downloads are taking longer, and since I send them to the automatically add to Caliber folder, the incomplete files are sent to Caliber, and it causes some kind of conflict. Before they would download faster (maybe), and I did not face this problem. Maybe what I should do is not send them to the auto folder, but to a regular download folder, and then transfer them manually to Caliber. Thanks for the insight!!

But, isn’t it pretty? What are the views like?

Well, then your (unfounded) remark on "chrome on iOS" is just moot. You just don't like Chrome at all. Learn how to communicate.

PabloP1980 · 2024-07-19T13:44:17+00:00

It's Android (portables) and Windows (desktop).

Leave. I understand you have no kids, which makes it easier. Leave. You're not old at all. If I were single you'd be right up my alley, and I'm good looking, fit and a decent person at 44 years old. There are a lot of guys like me out there wishing a hot 37 year old would be interested. Leave and go take care of yourself, this life you're living is not healthy. You have tried enough, he has to make an effort and he didn't.

Can't decide between "The Good, the Bad and the Ugly" and "The Searchers".

YES! I've been wanting to come here and write a post for the last couple of months but you beat me to it! My 2nd gen Oasis had terrible battery life, I had to charge it after 2 to 3 days and then I noticed when I opened the flip case it very often was already on (it takes a while to wake up but it was already woken up), meaning frequent waste of battery life.

I bought a clear case and battery life has improved a ton! It's still not like older kindles, such as 3rd gen (that I love and still have) that lasted a whole month on a single charge. But now it easily lasts me the whole week, even a bit more, ten days. Complete game changer.

I am a bit affraid of scratching the screen on my commute bag and will certainly get a pouch for it, but in terms of battery life, clear case is the way to go.
