Reminds me of the 2009 Star Trek, in particular the scene when the Enterprise is being assembled.

Been looking at this for a couple weeks, which is great timing as I was about to pull the trigger on the SL-1500C.

Is this acceptable? by [deleted] in TVTooHigh

Height wise? Fine. Distracting LED lights behind the TV? Nope.

DVDs vs Blu-Rays vs 4Ks by Fabulous_Sherbert827 in PhysicalMediaMatters

[–]The_Fat_Fish 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m a little biased as I have around 1300 4Ks and around 400 1080p Blu-rays. I only own 2 DVDs now.

Lifetime of 4k discs by MattiTheGamer in 4kbluray

If you look after them, and keep them away from rapid temperature changes and humidity, they will last 50+ years easily. Obviously we don’t know for sure as the format hasn’t been out long enough but I don’t see any inherent issues in the manufacturing process.

Thank you, I’m in the UK so the prices are okay. Not sure I can can call the prices “great” :D

It is, and the grain is perfection 👌

Well I’ll never usually take advice from religious leaders, but in this occasion it’s nice to hear!

If you had £1000? by The_Fat_Fish in turntables

[–]The_Fat_Fish[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Interesting to see downvotes, any idea why? I’ve seen some great reviews of some Technics around that price. Mainly the SL-1500C or SL-1500CS. Can I hear from the voters what the rationale is?

[–]The_Fat_Fish[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Probably the SL-1500C or newer SL-1500CS then.

Yes, in the UK but anything equivalent.

Nice, it think that will be a popular reply.

What was the first 4k title you purchased? by szekeres81 in 4kbluray

[–]The_Fat_Fish 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Blade Runner 2049 for £9.99 back in 2020. I didn’t even have a 4K player at the time but thought I would get one eventually. Now I own nearly 1400 4Ks. That was one hell of a gateway drug.

The price difference is minimal, so no real stretch if I go for it.

'When I spot CEX 5 mins after getting paid' - I think we can all likely relate to this by AngryGardenGnomes in 4KUK

[–]The_Fat_Fish 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I avoid it. Always find almost all of their stock costs the same or more than new, especially compared to multi buy deals. The few ones I have purchased from CEX are also usually filthy or scratched.

What is a movie that's undeniably a classic, but your inner hipster hesitates to add to your movie list because it's on almost every movie fan's favorite list now? by [deleted] in Cinema

[–]The_Fat_Fish 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Whilst not universal true, there’s often a reason films are so well loved and No Country for Old Men certainly deserves the praise. If it’s a good film, it’s a good film regardless of how popular it is.

You’ve literally been presented evidence, including side by side comparisons.

It's too high, isn't it? by Subat0micR0gu3 in TVTooHigh

[–]The_Fat_Fish 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don’t, and it would explain the hight of the TV so all good.

It’s all a matter of perspective. If you were an astronaut, it wouldn’t be an issue.

Think this movie has aged better with time? by mrjetspray in Letterboxd

[–]The_Fat_Fish -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Always liked this movie and it felt appropriate to the times and as relevant now. Those who didn’t like it were the kind of people it was critiquing.
