it's on tape though :-/
I just set up an HDTV for the first time in my life, got an HD cable box, and almost immediately saw that The Fifth Element was offered - free - in high-def. This must be the upcoming release for high-def DVDs. Man, it looks spectacular.RugoseCone said:

, you'll be happy to know that the HD section is just as good as the others. Or maybe you already know. I'm a wee bit late to the HD party.

don't you wish you could be put to sleep like that too? have someone come push a button and ......... *thud*i am late to that party too... in fact i have yet to arrive, but i'm working on itAs the reigning MR Comcast On Demand cheerleader
if only my husband wanted a HD telly as much as i do. (ironic twist of male-female roles eh?)
I do! The Taser works well on the kids (well, not for sleeping, but for the "push a button and thud" aspect) but not so well on me (the spasms do tend to tire me out a bit, but I feel too energized to sleep after the current cuts off). A 5th Element sleep button would be well appreciated.iBlue said:
Indeed. My wife's been pushing for one for years, and I only recently decided to give in - found a cheap but decent 1920x1080 set, finally. It is ironic and counter-intuitive, I agree.iBlue said:

he's mean like that.
I got a 37" (yes, I know, not huge) Westinghouse that does 1920x1080 (truly - I hooked up the mini to verify it) and cost me $1534. If you can swing that, trust me - the HD content will hook him. Sports, nature, movies... it all looks amazing. Sure, he walks by it in the store. But at home, on the wall? He'll want it, and that $1500 investment might fetch you your $3000+ TV a few months down the road.iBlue said:...like a huge LCD flat screen HDTV to mount on the wall. this will run me $3,000 at the very very minimum. there is no way my husband will go for that unfortunately.

i don't think i can swing that $ amount at the moment but i imagine in the next year or so i might be able to pull it off. that's a good price, and it gives me hope. thanks 
They'll be even better and cheaper in a year. I took a chance with the Westinghouse brand, and it's not the best LCD ever made from a backlighting point of view, but I'm quite happy with it.iBlue said:not too shabby... hmmmm....
