Q: What do the different formats, NTSC and PAL, mean?
A: The short answer is that NTSC files are for people in North America, including the United States and Canada. PAL files are for users in regions other than Region 1, such as the United Kingdom and Australia. The long answer has to do with technical specifications of each format. NTSC and PAL have different framerates - meaning a PAL video actually is a bit faster than its NTSC counterpart, making it somewhat shorter. It's difficult to notice unless you have two versions of the same movie (or audio file) playing side-by-side; but eventually you'll notice the PAL version being ahead of the NTSC version. Sometimes the difference is as much as a few minutes! If you find that your mp3 file is constantly out of sync with the DVD you're watching, first make sure that you've downloaded the correct format of mp3 (NTSC for Region 1, PAL for elsewhere) and then check other things, such as the DVD version (Collector's Edition, Director's Cut, etc.) is correct for that mp3 file. These details are usually found on the product page. For more information on NTSC, as well as a list of countries that use it, click here. For PAL information use this link.

Ronin Fox takes on "Doomed" the fourth chapter in this gripping tale of kidnapping, betrayal, betrayal by kidnappers, kidnapping from betrayers, betraying kidnappers by kidnapping already kidnapped victims, and of course gigantic African stereotypes. (Gigantic both literally and figuratively)
Jessie is your average everyday loner...well okay so he's really a whiney little wimp. He's manly enough to have a girlfriend though, even though he seemingly would rather leave her alone and sneak into his gym parter's bedroom.
Oh, and he's killing people.
So what does a wimpy, sexually indecisive, annoying teenage murderer have to do with Freddy Kreuger? Good question, we'll get back to that...maybe.
Nancy has a problem. She has bad dreams. Her dreams might actually kill her, in fact. Of course that doesn't stop her from falling asleep all the time, or from purposefully going into her dreams with the intent of tackling the dream demon that stalks her in order to bring him and his hand full of razor sharp blades into the real world.
Nancy is pretty dumb.
Sometimes you find yourself looking back on your childhood and asking yourself, "Did that ever really make sense to me? What was in my water?"
The Last Unicorn. A gripping and sad tale of the ravages of extinction and...what? Oh, apparently it's a whimsical romp of animation from people mainly known for Christmas specials coupled with several long musical numbers by those guys that sang Sister Golden Hair.
Ahh the Philippines. A lovely island nation off the Asian coast, the Philippines boasts a rich culture that flows over all its seven thousand plus islands.
And the soda, ahh the tasty soda.
What? I just thought we could take some time and talk about Coca Cola and the Philippines, what's your problem? It's not like I came up with it on my own, back in 1955 there was a whole film made on just that, and I've come to share it with you today.
Enjoy this short of highest quality, and don't forget to pick up some sugar-filled beverage to enjoy with it.
Once upon a time in the seventies, a science fiction movie arrived in theaters that redefined what movies could be. It was exciting, magical, overwhelming! That movie, of course, was Star Wars...then Paramount asked "What do we have that we can use to milk these sci-fi fans dry with?"
Thus Star Trek made its debut in film with Star Trek: The Motion Picture, a story so big, so massive, so filled with endless repetitive and slow paced minature effects shots, that it took the big screen to hold it all.
