    Super Size Me

    If they could have condensed the movie just a little it would have captured my intrest a bit more.

    The main character not only changed the type of food he ate but also the quantity which made a huge difference, I'm sure.

    What has happened to good old fashioned will power?

      I thought this was quite entertaining, and picked it up awhile back.

      An excellent production of an opinion regarding a serious issue in todays society.

      I don't have cable, but I hear this guy has a TV show where he and a few people try to live on minimum wage or something. Sounds interesting given my enjoyment with Super Size Me.

      Loved the soundtrack! :T :rofl:

          Now that you mention it the soundtrack was pretty good.

          The living on minimum wage thing sounds mighty interesting too.

              I've heard good things about 30 days...Morgan Spurlock is a creative guy. Still haven't seen Super Size Me but it's on my list. I also can't bring myself to read Fast Food Nation because I don't want to feel bad about the Whopper I like to eat every 2 years or so....

                  30 Days is an intriguing show. It puts people out of their comfort zone for instance last week they asked a devout christian to live with a Muslim family. Next week they are asking a Bible Thumping dude to go live with a gay guy in SF.

                  It's very slanted politically but it's interesting from a human perspective.

                  It comes on 10pm ET and PT on FX.

                      Hey, I'll have to check out 30 days.

                      Not only did I love Supersize Me, but the message is extremely important.

                      If anyone watched the extras, gotta make you wonder what additives they put on the fries to virtually mummify them.

                          Hi folks.

                          I've been checking out these forums the past month and getting a great education. I am presently building a home theatre room in my basement (13x17x8 ) and I have a fundamental question I'm hoping someone can answer.

                          I am presently searching for a 5.1 speaker...

                          Minimum Phase and Accurate Crossover Simulation
                          by Reet
                          Minimum phase for a speaker can be described of the phase of the frequency response of the speaker at it’s acoustic centre, or the phase without any excess phase or “time of flight” included. It can be calculated from the speaker’s frequency response using Hilbert-bode transform, or HBT. When comparing multiple minimum phase responses, we can say that the responses occur at the same point in space, ie. there is no physical distance between them. When measuring speakers and processing the...

                          Soundtrack Bit-rate Spreadsheet?
                          by David Meek
                          Hi all.

                          I've started putting together an Excel spreadsheet on the available soundtrack(s) and associated bit-rate(s) on DVD's. Is anyone interested in this, or is it just my elitist, anal-retentive side surfacing?

                          All I'm grabbing is the title, the "best" DD                          ...

                          Super Speedway- WOW
                          by George Bellefontaine
                          There was an earlier post that mentioned Super Speedway but I couldn't find it. Anyway, I mentioned in the post that I was unable to find a copy locally. Well a recent trip to the big city ( 2 hrs away ) was worth the drive. I snapped up the new widsecreen version and got around to playing it last night....
