***hey, I'm one of those guys in line. I keep trying to find an enjoyable movie, and it seems 9 times out 10, I come home with dreck.
Then YOU are not doing your homework. With good store and homework well done your success rate should be close to 70%.
***But that doesn't change a thing. There are,literally thousands,of movies, that go unwatched and just rot. Now that you're a rich guy, you could fund a grant for some young film grad to rampage through some of those old flicks looking for lost gems.Hardly any need for that. There are thousands of great movies waiting for all of us to see them, no need to dig deep until the top layer is done with. I am not even in the top 12" yet.
***Btw,Faroudja makes a box for plasma tv's. You should check into it.I don't think that is for me. I can watch the Fox News as it is now. I am not a video freak. Few minutes a week or good images is enough for me. My biggest issue is that many good films come in the 4:3 format, and there is nothing Faroudja or anyone else can do to remove THAT problem. There is nothing like watching the Wages of Fear on a 100" 4:3 projector in B&W...
Follow Ups:
Hi,
there is only one halfway decent video place in Maine. It's downtown, and the last time I rented a movie, I also got a parking ticket. Damn movie cost me nearly $50. The parking control goes around on these little 3 wheelers; and they are just too damn good.When the weather gets better I might go downtown on my bike. Easy parking,I just have to dodge those hideous metal boxes and stay alive long enough to get to the store. If I make a list,even they won't have any of the movies (or they will have one, and it's already rented). So for me, it's typically an impulse thing. Hey, Honey, let's rent a movie.
The fantastic store here - and Wilmington is NOT your NYC, you know - is not something you would find easily. It is out of the way and smallish, known only to those who care. There are some small chains around the country that do good job, but finding them can be hard.
