For the Movie Fanatic In Your Family

Watching movies on my computer has proven to be difficult. The colors are not always right and the rigid placement of the screen leaves a lot to be desired. Fortunately, the people at Samsung have brought about this beauty: the Samsung Series 9 SB970 LED monitor. The video is a bit technical, but if you want the best product for watching movies on your computer, check it out.

Each Series 9 SB970 monitor has been individually color calibrated—a meticulous process that only allowed Samsung to produce 50 units per day. Due to the expert color calibrating process, your movies will display in true-to-life colors straight out of the box. The 27-inch monitor also comes fully equipped with 7 watt stereo speakers and wide quad high-definition display, which is 1.5 times better than HD screen quality. For your viewing convenience, it’s also adorned with an advanced PLS panel that gives you a 178 degree viewing angle and allows for all of your friends to watch a movie at the same time.

The Series 9 SB970 is offered at Best Buy, TigerDirect, Microcenter, and New Egg.

The Best of the Decade

Over the last ten years, the cinema has given us a great deal to be thankful for: a rebirth of the Batman franchise, a series of examinations of what it means to live in this particular decade, and a mass of character studies whether they be animated or popcorn thrillers.

Paprika vs. Inception

Months before Inception hit the theaters forums were alive with rumors that Christopher Nolan either accidentally or intentionally stole some details from another film, the Japanese anime Paprika. The biggest point of comparison for some bloggers and forum runners was the fact that both of the films featured a device that allowed a person, or people, to travel into another’s dreams and delve into their subconscious.

Claims have been made that Inception abounds with imagery similar to or exactly like the anime movie, but with the recent release of the film on DVD and Blu-Ray, and with Paprika available for several years now, an examination of the two plots can be made more fully. Let us begin with the primary claim— Inception stole the idea of a dream
