Utah Bob #35998 Posted December 10, 2019 Share Posted December 10, 2019 Taking a break from my string of watching classic SyFy films while exercising, I have shifted to another genre. Lawrence of Arabia first last week and Master and Commander: The Far side of the World today. Rousing good yarns, both of em. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trailrider #896 Posted December 10, 2019 Share Posted December 10, 2019 M&C: The Far Side of the World is a great movie. The interesting thing is the French ship having been made in Boston yards with a certain material. Remind you of a currently commissioned U.S. Navy ship?

Go West Posted December 10, 2019 Share Posted December 10, 2019 I made a return to Winchester '73, The Train Robbers, The Searchers and The Shootist. Oh, and I broke out Deadwood and watched a few episodes. I love Westerns. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bgavin Posted December 11, 2019 Share Posted December 11, 2019 Lawrence is especially impressive if you have full range and a subwoofer. I remember seeing it in the theater as a young 'un.. Still own it today and shake the walls (if the missus is not home). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bgavin Posted December 11, 2019 Share Posted December 11, 2019 I bet. We have a 46" Samsung which is now "obsolete" because Netflix will not support it anymore. I have a very good BluRay player hooked up, and it works a treat. We will eventually (after the grand kid is gone) get a new Samsung in a larger diagonal. I do like my movies... and sound. And subtitles... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Go West Posted December 11, 2019 Share Posted December 11, 2019 We downsized our house and decided our big screen TV was too big. It was like Cinemax in your family room. Gave it to my niece and got a 55" on sale. Dropped cable TV and stream programs or watch DVDs. Have a 7.1 receiver for audio which gives a better experience with movies. I'm getting pickier with newer content as I don't want to support activist actors if you know what I mean. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
