First Blood is a classic. I bought the boxset quite cheap so I feel obliged to get the last one. Okd fashioned violence, can’t be all that bad!

[SCLee]

Well, I might get banned (again, sheesh), arguing on the Skyfall UHD thread, so I just wanted to say, "it's been grand."

Have fun. Go outside once in a while (y'know when you can again.) Don't live your lives online. Time is short.

It's not really though, it's "let's see how far we can push this, now that we're allowed to show a lot more," kind of violence.

I don't know, you reach a certain age (42) and you grow out of those films. Commando and the like. Or I did, violence is a young man's game.

Nah, I like a bit of screen violence. It’s not real, that’s the point.

Vengeance films just leave a bad taste in my mouth. I find them to celebrate the worst in humanity. They're set up so that you hate a group of people and want them to be slaughtered. You're being manipulated. It's like the Walking Dead with Neegan, he beats a man to death in front of his pregnant wife, and then they expect us all to forgive and like him. That was the moment I stopped watching because I knew they would turn him into an anti-hero. I'm more into family viewing.

Anyway, I'm about to be banned, most likely. Sadly, I can't just sit back and let someone mock and disparage me. I can't let someone twist my words, with their superiority complex. Bye Steedeel and bye Vilya, take care This time "I won't be back." Damn principals.

You are not helping yourself there mind. Just had a look. You can’t be attacking people for being introvert and/or film fanatics. Just pull it back mate, what’s the point of getting banned?

Take a breath, go get a cup of tea/coffee and don’t even bother reading that thread. Not worth getting wound up, I have done it and it doesn’t end well.

They attack me. I attack them. Don't take what I said seriously (even if there is some truth in it. Quite a bit actually.) It isn't meant to wound, you or Vilya. I'm done with the forum anyway. It's time I got back to the real world. Take care.

No, now is not the time! It’s Armageddon out there!

Anything to do with Aviation I like, especially Jungle Pilots with short field landings. I like Rambo Movies, I'll have to watch that Last Blood.

We have established in prior posts that My “acceptable” is what you consider as “excellent”. So it makes sense that when it’s “garbage” to me is already considered as “not bad” to you.

How do you come up with “not bad” or “excellent” is unknown to me as you don’t own a 4K player with 4K movie to compare to.

Heck, even most UHD discs don’t get “excellent” moniker from me.

I am sorry to see that there is trouble here in paradise. Taking a nice relaxing voluntary break from this funhouse might help to put things back into perspective. I hope that everything turns out well.

Who's talking about 4K UHD, I'm comparing it to HD and I do have a BD Player. Most of the Streaming Movies I watch are in HD, and that looks very good to me on Amazon Prime. What are you using to Stream to your Projector, and how is it connected? Who is your ISP, and what Bandwidth?

[Vilya]

It had better be a wired connection, too, with symmetrical internet or you're in for another sermon.

I know what you mean, but you can't stoop to their level. Keep your cool, and try to state your facts.

As of now, it looks like it's only a PRIME exclusive. Sort of how The Hateful Eight Extended Edition is on Netflix. I'll watch it, as the only way you would have seen this longer version in theaters, would have been in certain international territories.

Are you going to make me get out my again?

I don't know if I could even get through the trailer without laughing; but enjoy the distended cut if you can.

Disney used "digital fur technology" to cover her butt!

Yeah, digital puritanism sucks.

[Steedeel]

I have so many jokes in my head but I must show restraint.

Even more digital puritanism.

Let fly; it's good for the soul.

Your English comprehension is lacking snd I don’t want to spend time explaining what I wrote to you.

As mentioned before in my many posts, all my connection are wired using CAT6 cables through gigabit router with 600 mbps sustained stream and I use both Nvidia Shield 2019 and AppleTV 4K.
