I rented "DOOM" on blu-ray last night, and did not watch it til tonight. I noticed that the picture quality was awful. Also rt800 was not loud as i cranked receiver to 70 db. Gunshots, or whatever should be loud. I told my wife something is up with that disc. The movie ended, i immediately took the disc out of ps3, I was right..... Someone switched blu-ray version to dvd and returned the movie back. LOL some dumbass employee at blockbuster did not check the disc before returning it on shelf. SOMEONE RIPPED OFF BLOCKBUSTER!!

LOL... I will have to tell blockbuster tomorrow when i return the movie and tell them that it wasnt me switching disc. Someone did not want double dip lol I guess ill have to double check on disc before i go into car and go home everytime i rent blu-ray movies.
I am 100% BORN DEAF and No I am not kidding! :D Why am I here? My wife's hearing! :p

    Don't take this the wrong way, but if you're 100% deaf how could you tell the gunshots weren't "loud"? Can you feel them? Legitimate question.
    If you will it, dude, it is no dream.

    Well, considering i have a Magnavox bluray:rolleyes:, I can tell a big difference in the picture quality, but sound, with my current gear, maybe slightly, but I'm not sure if it's because i want to hear a difference. Now I can tell a huge difference in D.D. & DTS with my gear.

    So the moral of the story is if you're going to steal from blockbuster make sure to report your own theft that way they will suspect the person who rented it before you did.

    I try to stay out of the city...

    Its been on the hotter and humid side--rainy and overcast lately.
    I always find it interesting when I travel out of state. Especially when the flora are totally different. Like Arizona or SanDiego. The weeds are even cool.

    Last time I went to San Diego, I was impressed at how clean the area was. No trash in sight. It was in the Spectrum area if anybody knows where that is.
