Many people in Suffolk County drive like BizCat too. Drivers like BizCat are far more rare in Nassau County, if they even exist there.

As a Pennsylvanian, I keep going back and forth when it comes to comparing drivers. NJ & NY drivers both suck but when I’m on Long Island…I revert back to NYers being the worst lol.

I always thought Michigan had the worst, lol.

Jurassic Park always looked like ass on 4K with DNR and poor color timing. Well...maybe there's still some hope left.

Universal just announced they'll be releasing and remastering the entire trilogy in Dolby Vision with new Atmos audio. Hopefully this will be done with care and look awesome.




They are also releasing the Jurassic World films as well.

Thinking about today's plan. I think I'm going to see The Amateur at 10:30am. I was thinking about seeing a second film which would probably be either Sinners or Warfare. If I do see two movies, I'll probably take my car. If I only see one movie, I'll probably take the motorcycle. After that, I'll hit Costco for a little something to eat and then probably head to a couple stores. If I take my bike, I might go for a little ride.

Hey now don't group ALL New Yorkers together, downstate and upstate drivers are totally different. For instance I'm just north of Albany and I've always been a safe and defensive driver. Those in and around the "City" on the other hand...

And having spent the last 5 years in rural southeastern Kentucky, I can honestly say drivers absolutely suck down there. I couldn't go anywhere without seeing at least one wreck. I'm sure that was the cause of my increased insurance premiums.

Heh..my mistake. I should have said city drivers, but I did mention Long Island.

Today the Earth is on my mind.
Beautiful planet we live on, beautiful lovely people living on it ... 8.2 billion.

Spring time packed with flowers blooming, leaves greening, birds zigzagging, love's in the air. Can you smell the aroma?

There's a song titled "Love is in the Air" ... do you know the lyrics? No hay prolema amigos y amigas ...

I am interested in these for the same reasons, but I'm not a fan of the cover art..

I really only want the Original trilogy but the completest in me.

I agree the artwork could be better. I liked the one with the raptor on the Explorer.

A bit worrisome this is just 2 months away. I'll be shocked if it's a true remaster but it can't be worse than the previous editions.

All 3 movies are worth seeing. Hope you enjoy.

I hope so, too. I would like to get these. I'm just so iffy on how I feel about the series. As much as I love the first 3 movies, I cannot watch them over and over. The movies never looked like ass on 4K, though. Unless you are talking about a woman's behind. If so, then I'd have to agree.

That doesn't mean anything. They could have been working on this for a while now to gear them up for release at the same time as the new movie. The fact that they are adding Dobby Vision means a new transfer has been done. At least in terms of coloring. I don't think Dobby Vision is just some algorithm you can compute a movie into and it does everything for you. Though it might. The only thing I do know is you cannot lie any socks around it.

NAH! The drivers down here are the worst. It's a fact. We have our own song to prove it. It's called Drive Like a Nashvillian. I've seen grown ass adults reading a book while driving. A physical book. We wrote the rules on bad driving and break every law doing so.

That was a nice set 7 years ago.

I'm tempted to wait on the sidelines until the reviews come in. Also only a matter of time before a big box set is announced to include the upcoming film.

Has it been 7 years since that came out? Damn. Time really does fly. Now I feel even older. Thanks, sf.

I feel old every time I look in a mirror.

I wouldn't hang my hat on that just yet. Look at Mission Impossible. They didn't do a new box set with the 7th film came out.

Any Windows gurus?

I'm usually a Mac guy but broke out one of my older laptops running on Windows 10. It is too outdated for the free upgrade to 11 which sucks.

My desktop background runs on a slideshow but for some reason, I am unable to locate the file in which the photos are located. I don't get it. The photos change every 10 mins or I can advance to the next one by right clicking. Where the heck are they!?




It even tells me I have (20) photos in the file which is titled "DesktopBackground" but I get nothing. So strange. Perhaps it was moved somewhere else.

They're probably waiting until the 2-part 7th film is complete.

This may sound dumb, but do you have a 'Pictures' folder (this may itself be under 'Documents')?

Also, as someone who has Windows 11... i find 10 better.

No dumb questions in computing.

Heh...You would assume it would be easy and show up in the Photos folder but nothing shows up except for 3 photos and several folders. All folders are empty. It also blows my mind that nothing shows up in a search.

I even went into settings and unchecked the hidden folders.
