I don't have any of the Transformers. Wife bought the DVD of the 2nd because she liked the case, Transformed into Bumblebee. I laughed at it, and she gave it to one of the kids for his birthday. Bring a DVD into my house!

Anyway, they have a cool package here for all 3. Here is a vid of some Thai guy opening it. May buy the set for her.

Open Box Transformers (3 Movie Blu-ray Collection) (Trilogy) (Big Head Package) (BD 3 Disc) - YouTube

Had to mute it - good lord. Anyway, interesting (almost) pkg, I guess

I'm sure the 4-Disc set

[Show spoiler](that everyone's been waiting forever on, with the Bonus Stuff [on BD btw], & DVD/DC)

will have a cool package. Will be interesting to see what the guy shows will be in the 7-disc set up (coming Monday)

[Show spoiler](movie/bonus stuff for each, & then a 7th disc of...???)

Well, at least they packaged the 3 Transformer movies in regular Blu-ray cases... Lol, if I bought that package, the 3 blu-ray cases would go on my shelf, and the packaging would just go in the trash... Ok, so maybe I'd burn it instead, just to get a LITTLE enjoyment out of it...

I hear you. But I feel kinda bad about making fun of the last TF purchase my wife made. Having the box won't be so bad; it'd make her happy. Adding those movies to my collection would be tough. I mean, if I buy those turds, I might as well buy THIS!

I'd rather get her the 3 SteelBooks of the TF movies. Captain America got me hooked. Picked up Salt SteelBook yesterday, $24.

I don't think I have that many. I do think they're cool though.

Well, as I already own the first 2 Autographed by BAY

[Show spoiler]& Tyrese Gibson

, no need for the 7-disc set.

I'm sure the 4-disc one will be similar to the Special 3-disc AVATAR set that they kept everyone waiting on.

"Had to mute it - good lord." Listen to it; try to learn something. Was his speaking really so offensive. I am not fluent in Thai, but find they way the talk interesting. I do know how to say foreigner, beer, and happy ending.

What do you call someone who knows more than two languages?

[Show spoiler]Multilingual.

What do you call someone who knows two languages?

[Show spoiler]Bilingual.

What do you call someone who knows just one language?

[Show spoiler]American.

Calm the F__K down Mr. Knowledge. Did I ever say it was SO OFFENSIVE? No. Just because YOU may understand him somewhat, no need to think you can speak for everyone else.

It was the "good lord" comment that made it seem like it offended you. I don't understand a word of what he says, but I can still listen to it.

Mr. Knowledge? I like that!

Give the dude a break. If I used his reasoning I have a 5.4 system.

Since one of my subs has two 15" woofers, is my system a 7.2 or a 7.3 setup????

And by the way, why was Travis yelling so much a minute ago?

Honestly, no matter how many subs you have, it's still a 7.1

I think that way of thinking should change. I feel the '.' should represent the LFE, with the number behind it saying how many subs a person have.

Yet, it's not

It's almost the same as if you used a splitter to an amp, and the signal from that splitter is from the front left channel, and you use 9 speakers from that amp.

Even tho you have 9 speakers connected, it's still only one channel


And if we were thinking the other way, then the sub with the woofer would still be one. I guess it’s measured by the cabinet/s ….

[phansson]

pssst, HAMP I was kidding

I actually agree with you on the "." meaning you have a sub and the number behind that telling you how many are in your system.

I swear too ya, I had a feeling you were kidding.... Right after I sent it.

I know, these AVR manufacture can get away with saying a 7.2, why can't we.

I stopped saying 7.2 when I got blasted by someone years ago when I use to post it like that. Sir Terrence something something
