This movie rocks. I had been wanting to see it because I had heard it was good. I couldn't find the unedited version to rent, so I hadn't seen it until this year. We watched it in my Film and Video class here, and I loved it. I seemed to be the exception to the rule, however. I'd say about 97% of the class disliked to downright hated this movie. Why did I love it, and everybody else hate it?I loved it because I could see it for what it is. It was a movie made for high school kids, and it looked and felt like something a high school kid would make. It was chock full of swearing, sex, violence, and crude humor. There was no plot. But, it obviously had a budget, and became a satire of itself. In fact, it could be seen as being a movie that force feeds sex, language, and violence (all the things that high schoolers may think as cool) to kids and shows them that it is not cool.The movie was downright hilarious, and the repetitiveness got hilarious. Everything was run straight to the ground. And it was all so over the top that you couldn't believe that they actually went as far as they did.The movie, in my opinion, truly grasps the Goth mentality in all of its glory. Disaffected, removed, and yet sweet in a way, with extremes running through it all. The one thing that this movie is not is nihilistic though. Somebody referred to it as "nihilism for nihilism's sake." How is this different from the stylistic nihilism of Pulp Fiction? Not to mention, they did not fully grasp the movie.*SPOILERS SPOILERS* In this movie, they are at first shocked by the death, and show more emotion for the dead characters. "Why do you have to kill someone everytime we stop somewhere?" They feel sad about killing the dog, and give it a burial as well. The ending is also shock in that, if you even semi-cared for the characters (which should be the nature of film), you felt sad for them, and was shocked by the scariness of the violence and oppression of them. It had emotions through it about violence, making it not nihilistic. The ending could also be seen as mourning and dealing, as Amy doesn't reply to the final question.The sex issue was treated with unemotion because sex is seen as detached from love. Sex is sex. It is a pleasure. That's what its seen as in this movie. It could be heterosexual or homosexual, but it is just sex. The ending could be seen as the repression of homosexuality by the all-american norm. *END SPOILERS END SPOILERS*So, I say if you can handle ultra violence, and rampant language, and disturbingly close sex, run to the store to see this movie (if they have the unrated version). Otherwise buy the unrated version. I did. This is a great movie. Hilarious and entertaining with a message, unlike some other modern movies.10/10
Doom Generation full hd movie 1080p
Also a detriment to me is that I noticed a bit of "flickering" in the image, mostly in the opening star field shot and on the film's opening logo, which exhibited some stairstepping on the logo's sharply contrasted lines. I wouldn't expect to see that on high-def material, though that may be a result of our Toshiba HD-XA1's ability to only output 1080i. Hopefully, when the next-gen players arrive, we will be able to take advantage of these early HD DVD disc's native 1080p encoding, which should provide a smoother, more film-like picture.
Visual effects continually improve, and with each generation developers add more polygons, physics, and shaders to make virtual worlds ever more impressive. But if those worlds are viewed at lower resolutions, like 720p and 1080p, detail will be muddy, edges will be aliased, and distant features blurry, decreasing realism and immersion.
How incredible the gaming experience is really depends on the game. In modern and even relatively modern AAA titles, you're typically looking at around 30 fps at 1080p using the lowest quality settings. Now, that might be incredible by iGPU standards, but overall it's pretty miserable when compared to multi-generation old discrete GPUs.
Video game consoles generally increase resolution slowly over the course of generations. For example, the PlayStation 2 ran games, on average, at a bit below 480p. The PlayStation 3 ran games, on average, at 720p. And the PlayStation 4 ran games, on average, at 1080p. 720p has about half of the pixels of 1080p, and 480p has about a third of the pixels of 720p.
With each new console generation, resolution increases less than it did in the previous generation as technological advancement slows. From PS2 to PS3 there was about a 3x increase in pixels, whereas from PS3 to PS4 there was about a 2x increase in pixels. Accordingly, the next PlayStation after PS4 should have targeted 1440p, which is a little less than 2x the pixels of 1080p.
Game consoles instead decided to skip 1440p and go for 4K, and they decided to go for that huge 3x pixel increase with a mid-generation refresh in the form of the PS4 Pro and Xbox One X. These were essentially souped-up PS4s and Xbox Ones that were marketed as 4K machines when the PS4 ran games, most of the time, at 1080p/30FPS and the Xbox One at 900p/30FPS.
First up, we're going to be looking at some older and less demanding games - seventh generation console titles are often a good fit thanks to meagre performance demands and solid gamepad support. Half-Life 2 is a good example, running at 4K 60fps max settings without MSAA. Similarly, Deus Ex: Human Revolution hits 1440p60 just fine at medium settings, where image quality is reasonable, performance is solid, and the artwork holds up - and you can even go for 4K 30 if you prefer. Valkryia Chronicles and Dishonored both perform in a similar range at default settings at 1440p, though framerate dips may prompt you to opt for 1080p instead for a better 60fps lock. Both titles do hold up perfectly fine though and even compare favorably to their eighth-gen console ports - a big win for the Deck. Other games of a similar vintage fare worse though, such as Alan Wake, which requires 900p to hit 60fps, and Mass Effect Legendary Edition, which is probably best played on Deck at 1080p30 - equal with PS4 and Xbox One, but not ideal for a 4K TV.
However, updates to aid docked play are arriving regularly. For example, it was originally impossible to run games in SteamOS's gaming mode at resolutions higher than 1280 x 800 for instance, even when connected to a 1080p or 4K display. After a June update however, it's now possible to set the display resolution to anything between 640x400 and a full 4K, although this applies to both portable and docked play and may need to be changed per title, which I had to do for our testing.

Consumers who purchase both an Xbox 360 (which already includes a standard DVD drive for games) and the HD DVD add-on will spend the same amount of money as those who purchase a Sony PlayStation 3, which includes an expensive integrated Blu-ray drive. With its next-generation optical-disk advantage gone, Sony has had to resort to a single technical area in which the PlayStation 3 outshines the Xbox 360: HD output. In addition to the standard definition, 720p, and 1080i HD resolution that the Xbox 360 offers, the PlayStation 3will offer true 1080p output.
But this week, Microsoft announced that even that advantage has been nullified. It turns out that the Xbox 360 hardware has always supported true 1080p, and beginning this fall, the software giant will enable that functionality by shipping a free software patch to Xbox 360 users over the Internet. This patch will let Xbox 360 users display all Xbox 360 games and DVD movies at true 1080p; currently, the Xbox 360's firmware limits the device to 720p and 1080i HD output, with downsampling for standard definition. Suddenly, the Xbox 360 appears to have no serious technical limitations when compared with Sony's overpriced and repeatedly delayed PlayStation 3, although the Xbox 360 still lacks a HDMI connection. (However, you could conceivably add an HDMI connection by using a new cable connection kit, should one be made available.)
The Xbox 360 HD DVD Player offers up to six times higher resolution than DVD, and as part of the Autumn 2006 console update all Xbox 360 consoles will have the ability to output native resolution 1080p games and movies. Users can enjoy blockbuster HD DVD releases, with more than 150 titles available by the holidays from major movie studios including HBO, Paramount Pictures, StudioCanal, Universal Studios, New Line Entertainment and Warner Bros. Entertainment Inc.
Yes, TVs are getting bigger and better, but it seems like the industry has simply given up on what was admittedly a niche market, but nonetheless still one with quite passionate devotees who keep buying the product, i.e., 3D movies. Seems that the two big boys, SONY and LG, have stopped offering 3D capable TVs. 4K is all the rage now and so it they have fully abandoned 3D capable sets as of 2017. BUT, if you are a 3D fan like me and quite a number of my friends, we are in luck because the projector manufacturers are still committed to including 3D capability with the higher-end projectors. And if you are enthusiastic enough to be thinking of recreate that authentic cinema experience in your home by considering a video projector as opposed to TV, then the good news is, you will still be able to easily find quite a number of projectors still sporting 3rd dimension capability (you can't get more "movie theatre equivalency" than a big movie screen in your Home Theatre, which relatively speaking is probably bigger than what you see in many a multiplex), but then imagine adding 3D to that wall-to-wall living room screen! Regal, eat your heart out. 2ff7e9595c
