MarvinisaLunatic Posted October 2, 2005 Report Posted October 2, 2005 Making fun of CNN! Yay. Steve Carell is high-lar-e-ous And I bet a ton of people are pissed that its letterboxed on regular tv. And next week its Napoleon Dynamite and Ashlee Simpson.
bob_barron Posted October 2, 2005 Report Posted October 2, 2005 Why are you so obsessed with HD?? This show has been really funny so far.
MarvinisaLunatic Posted October 2, 2005 Author Report Posted October 2, 2005 Why are you so obsessed with HD?? This show has been really funny so far. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Im so obsessed with HD cause I've got an HDTV. If you had one, you'd be clawing at the bit to watch stuff..anything.. in HD. I watch freaking bears shitting in the woods on Discovery HD Theatre cause its in HD. I dont normally watch SNL (used to watch it .. at least 10 years ago..) but cause its in HD..I figured I'd watch it. And GGW - Katrina? Yeah..thats not just the least bit tasteless.
razazteca Posted October 2, 2005 Report Posted October 2, 2005 Too bad Jaime Foxx could'nt make the performance.
bob_barron Posted October 2, 2005 Report Posted October 2, 2005 SNL should be tasteless. The skit sucked but good for them. I've watched TV with an HDTV, I don't know, I wasn't blown away or anything.
MarvinisaLunatic Posted October 2, 2005 Author Report Posted October 2, 2005 The Musical performances are going to be awesome in HD/5.1 although..uh..I dont think 5.1 can help Ashlee Simpson next week.
The Electrifyer Posted October 2, 2005 Report Posted October 2, 2005 The performance was alright, but the little skit before that was much better.
bob_barron Posted October 2, 2005 Report Posted October 2, 2005 ::sobs at an SNL thread being started before my review:: I broke a pen watching WU.
razazteca Posted October 2, 2005 Report Posted October 2, 2005 At least Sanz did not laugh during WU.
Ravenbomb Posted October 2, 2005 Report Posted October 2, 2005 Kenan was awesome, I liked the Kanye/Myers skit and Debbie Downer/Bob Bummer (mostly for Carrel's facial expressions during the "Wha whaaa" bits) EDIT: fine. Happy, bob?
The Dames Posted October 2, 2005 Report Posted October 2, 2005 I dont even have an HDTV, but I get the HD channels and it makes such a difference in video quality that I seriously get upset if something fucks up and I have to watch it in standard full frame format. I'm spoiled at this point and I will be buying an HDTV in the future. HD or death. Dames
bob_barron Posted October 2, 2005 Report Posted October 2, 2005 My friend has an HD and I don't know, TV is TV. And let's do what Czech did- Wrong- Keenan Right- Kenan Wrong- Meyers Right- Myers
The Dames Posted October 2, 2005 Report Posted October 2, 2005 Sorry, full frame vs. Widescreen TV, I'm COMPELLED to choose widescreen. Good video quality vs. GREAT video quality, I'm COMPELLED towards GREAT. HD > YOU. Sorry, Bob. I put you over enough this weekend... Dames
razazteca Posted October 2, 2005 Report Posted October 2, 2005 Yeah but you make more than minium wage right?
MarvinisaLunatic Posted October 2, 2005 Author Report Posted October 2, 2005 Im at least glad I have one HD supporter in Dames on this board. Anyway..I'll just put it at this..there are some things that HD makes at least watchable (afformentioned bears shitting in the woods), but HD really didn't make SNL any better and its no better than the last time I tried to watch it.
The Dames Posted October 2, 2005 Report Posted October 2, 2005 Everyone always says to me "why does HD mean so much to you, you don't even HAVE an HD TV"? I DONT GIVE A FUCK. Widescreen & GREAT quality > Full screen and OK quality and I'll GLADLY spend an extra 15 a month for it. Bitches. Dames
The Dames Posted October 2, 2005 Report Posted October 2, 2005 Wow...double posts suck when you don't have the ability to delete them. Dames P.S. If I had my mod powers back, this wouldn't EXIST~!!!!
bob_barron Posted October 2, 2005 Report Posted October 2, 2005 It's TV. I see the ads saying that the difference is like colour and black and white, and it's not.
MarvinisaLunatic Posted October 2, 2005 Author Report Posted October 2, 2005 A really good HD picture vs a SD picture is like one of those Claratin commercials where they peel away a layer of muck to reveal a crystal clear picture. The only thing holding back widescreen TV is the fact that they either have to frame the shots so it fits in a 4:3 screen (which makes the extra screen real estate on a 16:9 tv filled with nothing of importatnce as opposed to a Widescreen DVD) or present the show in letterbox on regular tvs (like SNL tonight or Conan) which angers the few people who have 4:3 tvs and don't like those black bars on DVDs let alone their regular tv. The good news is that Widescreen TVs have started outselling 4:3 tvs..
The Dames Posted October 2, 2005 Report Posted October 2, 2005 FUCK regular, "full frame" TV. The people who complain about "black bars" are simply just uneducated or don't give a damn about their viewing experience. Dames
The Czech Republic Posted October 2, 2005 Report Posted October 2, 2005 Like I've said, I don't watch enough television to care, and bad shows are still bad shows now matter how good the picture is.
The Czech Republic Posted October 2, 2005 Report Posted October 2, 2005 Why are you so obsessed with HD?? Oh god, how did nobody catch this. Just give yourself a second.
SuperJerk Posted October 2, 2005 Report Posted October 2, 2005 ^I just got it.^ Why are you so obsessed with HD??

After you've watched TV in HD for a couple of weeks, you can't go back. Its like asking a DVD collector to go back to watching VHS tapes.
bob_barron Posted October 2, 2005 Report Posted October 2, 2005 Why are you so obsessed with HD?? Oh god, how did nobody catch this. Just give yourself a second. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> I got it!
Mik Posted October 2, 2005 Report Posted October 2, 2005 Substitute Hilary Duff with high def and you have one HD addict preaching to another.
SuperJerk Posted October 2, 2005 Report Posted October 2, 2005 FUCK regular, "full frame" TV. The people who complain about "black bars" are simply just uneducated or don't give a damn about their viewing experience. Dames <{POST_SNAPBACK}> They usually think the bars are covering up something.
Guest Skironox Posted October 2, 2005 Report Posted October 2, 2005 Wow, this thread got real off topic.
