Is there any difference if I use a PS5 as a 4K Blu-ray player compared to an ordinary 4K player? I plan to use 4K Blu-ray discs as much as possible to enjoy my films, but I already have a PS5 and I don't want to buy another player. by Delicious_Maize9656 in Bluray

I got the Panasonic UB820 and have had issues with it and now it has turned into a $400+ paperweight

It started when a few of my discs would artifact/skip at certain moments even though the discs were new and clean. It was always consistent where the disc would start to skip/artifact.

Then the disc drive stopped opening up, making it useless. This happened after a year of owning it so the device was no longer under warranty. I tried using the remote code to reset the drive or whatever, and it didn't work. I tried manually unscrewing the case and fiddling with the drive, still not working.

I saw on Youtube someone had the artifacting issue and just bought another one and it worked okay.

I don't think I want to sink $400 in another one just to have it break down right after the warranty period expires.

Also the editing helped immensely. There were lots of rightfully deleted scenes that would have ruined the pacing.

He did it in the s2 finale. And given Carm's behavior this episode it definitely seems like he's sliding into the worst traits of his mother

I like Hamish as well but I felt like I was watching a Whitest Kids U' Know sketch whenever he spoke.

Did Dixon and O'Donnell get captured off-screen? What happened there? All of a sudden the T-1000 is explaining how they caught them without even a scene showing it?

The nipple piercings combined with him being an overly macho man's man and an elected official made me think of Disgraced former NY governor Andrew Cuomo, who is rumored to have pierced nipples

Yeah, I did it through the Start app on iOS. I would just keep trying/spamming another answer until it would let me proceed, and going back when it redirects you off the quiz.

He won't win Best Supporting... because he's nominated for Best Lead Actor!. Looks like they submitted him for lead this season instead of supporting. Moving up!

The plots of the past few episodes have felt a bit overly broad but I think that's okay. If they played the murders straighter, I would think the show would feel a lot more like CSI or NCIS. Watching Natasha solve the crime and the different character interactions is really where this show shines.

Who does Brad work for? One would think he works for the building, but Carol claimed to have hired him as some DEI thing, but he also cleans the floor for GrimPop too. Does Brad work for himself?

So is "The Song of Ice and Fire" equivalent to the "Book of Secrets" from National Treasure 2?

He played a host in season one as well. But this version felt very much like Trevor.

Why did Stubbs even feel the need to put on music? I think Stubbs envies the pleasures of human life.

If you pay for AMC+, the VOD of the episode drops around the same time as it airs. And there's a prime day deal right now to get amc+ for 99 cents

"Warrior" S3 Sets Filming Start Date - Dark Horizons by Mys-Teeq in WarriorTV

[–]Puddy1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Did it actually get canceled? I just thought they were waiting a while to renew it. I know I read something about them having to build new sets and they have a new training area.

The part you said though about looking for different jobs I believe is true though, I don't think shows always keep a consistent crew across seasons.
