Paris, Je T’Aime - HD Trailer

Paris, Je T’Aime - Trailer
Celebrated directors from around the world, including the Coen Brothers, Gus Van Sant, Gurinder Chadha, Wes Craven, Walter Salles, Alexander Payne and Olivier Assayas, have come together to portray Paris in a way never before imagined. Made by a team of contributors as cosmopolitan as the city itself, this portrait of the city is as diverse as its creators’ backgrounds and nationalities. With each director telling the story of an unusual encounter in one of the city’s neighborhoods, the vignettes go beyond the ‘postcard’ view of Paris to portray aspects of the city rarely seen on the big screen.
Directed by: Olivier Assayas
Starring: Natalie Portman, Maggie Gyllenhaal, Fanny Ardant, Elijah Wood, Nick Nolte

Fido - HD Trailer

Fido - Trailer 1a
Welcome to Willard, a small town lost in the idyllic world of the 50’s, where the sun shines every day, everybody knows their neighbor, and rotting zombies deliver the mail. Years ago, the earth passed through a cloud of space dust, causing the dead to rise with a craving for human flesh. A war began, pitting the living against the dead. In the ensuing revolution, a corporation was born: ZomCon, who defeated the legions of undead, and domesticated the zombies, making them our industrial workers, our domestic servants - a productive part of society. ZomCon would like the people of Willard to believe they have everything under control... but do they? Timmy Robinson doesn’t think so. At eleven, Timmy already knows the world is phony baloney - Mom and Dad just won’t admit it. Now ZomCon’s head of security has moved in across the street, and Timmy’s Mom refuses to be the only housewife on the block who doesn’t have a zombie of her own. When she brings a zombie servant home, Timmy discovers a new best friend, and names him Fido. And even though Dad has a bad case of zombie-phobia, Timmy is determined to keep Fido, even if he does eat the odd person...
Directed by: Andrew Currie
Starring: Carrie-Ann Moss, Billy Connolly, K’Sun Ray, Henry Czerny, Dylan Baker

JVC DLA-HD1 1080p projector reviewed

The front projection market (and consumer electronics in general) is an ever evolving example of the moving target, price versus performance paradigm. What’s a bargain today may be overpriced tomorrow but every now and then a product comes along that challenges the status quo as we know it. At $6,295 the HD1/RS1 offers a compelling reason to “get off the fence” and do so with the comfort that whatever happens in the next twelve to twenty four months you’ll still have a fantastic looking display that didn’t require a second mortgage to buy into.

PS3 to get upscaled DVDs, 1080p/24

Obviously something is bound to be lost in translation, but if the text reads correctly then the PS3 will not only be getting better software SACD support, but it'll also get user-selectable internal YCrCb image processing (instead of RGB -- although we've yet to hear of component output plans), 1080p/24 support, and will finally allow for DVD upscaling as well. We have no idea exactly when this will happen (or why this wasn't made clearer to us US-dwelling videophiles) but apparently Kutaragi-san and the gang are on the case -- godspeed, PS3 team.

Toshiba WLT68 LCDs announced

Toshiba has added more flesh to the bones of its Regza LCD television range, which we first got a sniff of back in April. The WLT68 range features a whopping three HDMI inputs (two at the back and one on the side) -- so you can flick between Sky HD, PlayStation 3 and a Blu-ray or HD DVD player.

Panasonic Viera TH-37PX600 37in plasma reviewed

As always seems to be the case with Panny plasmas, if there’s one picture element that stands out above of all the rest, it’s black level response. We’ve never seen any other flat TV brand deliver blacks with the same killer combination of total darkness and subtle shadow detailing. This means that while playing, say, Prey on the Xbox 360, the game’s darkest corners look pitch black rather than a murky grey as they do on most flat TVs - yet you can still comfortably make out the sort of subtle shading and background details in dark areas that make the image more three-dimensional, believable and involving.

Vizio L42 and GV42L budget 42-inch LCD HDTVs

V Incorporated has took the wraps off a new pair of Vizio 42-inch LCD HDTVs that will presumably only be available to those who can produce a membership card at the front entrance of a Sam's Club or Costco. Gaining fame for offering up somewhat comparable (albeit much less expensive) alternatives to more recognizable brands like Sony and Samsung, Vizio is dropping its GV42 -- which sports a 1,366 x 768 resolution, 1,600:1 contrast ratio, and a 8ms response time -- for a below-average $1,599.99, but only at Costco. The L42, available in Sam's Club, is remarkably similar to its slightly more advanced sibling, but had its corners cut by getting just an 800:1 contrast ratio and a $1,499.99 pricetag.

InFocus IN76 video projector reviewed

We pointed to another review of this great little projector back in March, but Home Theatre Blog's in-depth review was too good to miss:

I found the IN76 to be a capable 720p front projection performer; it’s bright, color accurate and provides good overall detail and black level. No its not perfect and rightfully so, projectors in this price range still have a ways to go before they challenge the current king of the mountains in the 720p range. That said the IN76 does offer features not found in other projectors in its range, the Pixelworks DNX-PW390 10-bit video processor performs admirably and the projector has good grayscale right out of the box, all in all the IN76 is worth an audition if your in the market for a sub 3K front projector.
