    Review of "Promised Land"

    I spun this movie on BD format yesterday and I liked it, but did not love it. There's nothing wrong with this film per say but I wasn't blown away by it. I rented it in BD format because I thought the visuals would be nice but not really.

    What I did like about it is it's portrayal of rural America and the sensibilities of the people who live there. Very well done!. It's all about Natural Gas 'Fracking' and the industry trying to get the rights to 'Frack' and extract Natural Gas from properties in rural America. Matt Damon does a great job in his role of the Global sales spokesman. The ending takes on a nice sinister twist!!.

    7/10 stars (Ok for kids but....they won't like it and will walk away!)

Or another thing if Disney just decided to abandon 3D altogether. But Disney is now releasing Blu-Rays around...

    Is RSX-1057 North America only?
    by bigburner
    I've noticed that the RSX-1057 only appears on Rotel's North America website, not on the Global website.

    Does anyone know if the RSX-1057 is available outside of the North America region?

    Important new return policy for Rotel of America
    by Kevin D
    Just a heads up. I'm sure many of you are familiar with the new process of QA'ing equipment as it comes into North America, trying to remove shipping damaged product before it goes out to dealers. Rotel of America has now taken that another step to insure quality of service.
