    Netflix has me watching some hardcore garbage lately.

    First thing I do when I pop in a dvd/blu-ray is go to the audio menu and look for a 2.0 mix of the movie. Without a surround sound system, Dolby Digital and DTS sound horrible.

    I also watched Rock of Ages and thought it sucked. They play was 100 times better because it was more intimate and they broke down the fourth wall by including the audience. They even called out SA with an ozzy pissing on the alamo joke. It was like a play / rock concert and was just fun. All the vocals were live and they had a live band on stage playing all the music.

    The movie was a mess with added characters and there were to many songs added that no one performance stood out. Also none of the singers had a rocker voice, it sounded like chipmunks singing. I give Cruise credit for his role, but his singing was just not there. In the play his character has a minor role but does serious damage in the story. In the movie they even changed that part.

    You are absolutely correct and if you listen to the DVD through your TV, then in most cases there's no real solution (except the sub les, obviously). If you use a surround receiver most have a "night mode" button/setting, that will actually enhance the dialogues and dampen the FX (most noticeably the sub-woofer).

    This has annoyed me for years, since there's enough space on the discs to simply add a normal stereo audio mix without the FXs and allow this choice for the viewer. This used to be the norm in early DVDs, but nowadays is quite rare.
    It, coupled with the fact that even good TVs are built with speakers, is eventually going to force me into buying surround sound, which really annoys me. I'm not a huge fan. I have a huge movie collection and would like to watch them comfortably at home, but I have neither the need or the desire for my "home theater" to replicate or replace a movie theater.

    First thing I do when I pop in a dvd/blu-ray is go to the audio menu and look for a 2.0 mix of the movie.
    Harder and harder to find. Especially now that rental discs so often disable special features and customization options.

    Probably doesn't hurt that the same people selling you the entertainment sell you the kit to experience it through, too.

    Gotta make up those margin losses incurred from piracy somehow, I guess.

    watched the 2nd Sherlock Holmes, and as soon as he typed "THE END" I thought, oh , they're going to add a question mark, no, please no question mark!

    4.5/10

    Badass Marvel characters such as Hulk and Ghost Rider really aren't cut for theaters.

    I agree. I wanted to like this movie so much because I like Liam Neeson, but man it was just bad all the way around.

    I'm guessing Liam wished he would have gone ahead and killed himself early on when he had the chance.

    I wish he would have too. It would have saved two hours of miserable movie watching.
