It goes without saying that we all love our physical media for the benefit(s) it brings (heck, even before Blu-ray and UHD BD, to this day, I still enjoy the visceral tactile sensation of setting up my 16mm projector and putting on a reel of film I personally shot and know I will own forever – https://forum.blu-ray.com/showthread...n#post19325652

even though it likely bores the hell out of my friends despite all of them being kind enough to smile after a showing and claim otherwise. With all that said, an analytic view of entertainment in 2022 –https://vimeo.com/664870471

So, with regards to OTT video content ^ , this is an upcoming ‘how to’ on grading from the Color Space Cadets which is FREE -

Errr, assuming (hoping) a surprise Frankenvariant doesn’t come down the pike this summer which can evade memory B cell and CD4 and CD8 T cell immune response, EW would best to ‘investigate’ as to whether the DoD could accommodate the U.S. premiere of Top Gun: Maverick by fitting in a flyover by the Blue Angels between the Melbourne and Annapolis air shows because that is challenging.

Or perhaps how/if Pepsi will be inserted into the movie this time around the deck for it certainly won’t be nearly as overt as with this –

I rewatched the trilogy recently (HDR Dolby Vision) because I had the time and because I like it.
... Some of favorite scenes ...

Saturday was a good day too with seeing Aaron Rodgers loose and reading some of the post-game poetic justice jokes on twitter.

going into the 4th quarter – no more the guacamole dip, crab casserole is getting low, still have a few slices of jalapeno calzones and lots of booze downstairs (which should make Wabs happy), so I think we’ll make it to the end –

you’re too quick!, the door was intentionally left open for PeterTHX to make an appearance on that as he was MIA with the turntable query on the last page....however, little did I know that LordoftheRings is an audiphile connisseur as well.

I guess I shouldn’t single out Rodgers as there are others of high profile in leadership roles who have been loose with the truth, e.g. - http://cinemalowdown.com/2012/11/cin...exclusive.html , but some of the jokes with regards to Rodgers after the Packers game were truly hilarious and IMO deserved.

I hope you didn’t limit yourself to watching American football this weekend as, aside from throwing bottles and lighters onto the field at players, there were some great moments across the pond in the Prem, e.g. - https://www.trollfootball.me/videos/...-josh-sargents

This is a nice retrospective on display technology of last year which can also serve as a reference for 2022 - https://www.displaydaily.com/article...lay-daily-year

No idea. As an audiophile my music is high-res (24-bit/192kHz) downloads purchased from places like HDTracks.

Peter is back !. Yo, during your absence Wabs zoomed in and usurped you as our official lose/loose spelling correct-tor, i.e. one of many posts on that topic - https://forum.blu-ray.com/showthread...e#post11103508

Wabs, if you want your own spelling/grammar gig, look. next time I miss you and ask “Where’s Wabo”, instead I’ll say - “Where’s Wabo at? Wabo and me were planning to go to a presentation on display meteorology but he aint nowhere to be found, not for nuthin” <- you can go at that , for it is a target rich environment.

What better way to open an upcoming movie showing carrier jets accompanied by a background soundtrack of guitar-playing Kenny doing Danger Zone? Well, I guess we’ll just have to wait for that and settle for more old school today –

I still have three turntables, two spinning occasionally for good measure.
