[N8 v2.0]

Got the Panasonic 50" 7UY, DVI board, tilt mount and a 5 year bumper-to-bumper warranty all for nearly the price of a couple really good XC bikes.

Special thanks to RM's surfinguru for the link to the AVS Forum.



Now while the tv makes its way to me over the next few days from the warehouse, I need to get recommendations on what 3 dvd's to watch on Plasma Premier Night!

Saving Private Ryan
LOTR (any)

Strangers With Candy, Season 3
Kill Bill Vol 1
Empire Strikes Back

i got seasons 1 and 2 of SWC and watched the Yes You Can't episode last night. seeing steven colbert at the end as a rocker (did they do "carry on my wayward son"?) was hilarious. mark ibold (pavement) was playing bass. he used to pop on some other tv show too.

 

[DRB]

The Matrix
Minority Report
A movie with the Corey's in it.

 

[mack]

[I Are Baboon]

 

[HippieKai]

Where the hell did you find a working 13" monitor? Have they even made any of those in the past 10 years?

Hobo!

:devil:

 

[Skookum]

i'd watch Invader Zim dvd's all night.

 

[Grimey]

Do you have a sound system to match? If so.. I would go for Ronin.

 

[Peete]

Tracy Lords' first video
The Matrix
80s hair metal videos

 

[RideND]

I can't believe no one has said it. Farenheit 9/11 would be a great choice.

 

[rvlacich]

The Matrix
Saving Private Ryan
Death Wish (with the late Charles Bronson)

 

[Mani_UT]

Bad move.. in my experience the bigger the better the TV the more time you spend in front of it...

Stay away from it :angry:

 

[nicklin]

Boondock Saints, We were soldiers, and Ali G in Da House are what I would get......

 

[nicklin]

Oh yeah my 12 inch I-Book is my TV......So I win the most-hobo-ish TV award fro now right?

(spent my free cash on bikes, knives, and flashlights........so screw the TV. IT's better for your eyes anyway..........)

 

[TheInedibleHulk]

Boondock Saints
The Royal Tenebaums (great for checking out contrast and color)
Gladiator (good sound test as well as visually stunning, as well as being an acceptable movie)

 

[N8 v2.0]

Looks like the unit will be here sometime on Wed.

Miz N8 and i were shopping for an AV cabinet to hold all the AV goodies... dvd player, reciever, HD TiVO, various other items... but haven't found just what we want yet. Found this cool site though and might order something.

[surfinguru]

N8, congratulations man! Glad the link to the AVS Forums was helpful. I know you'll be happy with the purchase.

As far as what movies to watch? Without knowing your preferrences, I'd have agree with a few already listed and add a few of my own:

Saving Private Ryan, Band Of Brothers (If you're into the WWII stuff)
LOTR (any of them)
Matrix I, II and III
Finding Nemo, Shrek (or any recent animated stuff will be phenomenal)

Oh, and N8, I'm really digging that furniture - excelent find! I'm currently using a wall mounted articulating arm with some AV console unit I picked up from Circuit City.

Anyway, ENJOY!! (Plasma = :love: )
