Author Topic: The Best Christopher Lani Film Handler Posts: 62 From: Ely, Nevada, USA Registered: Nov 2013 posted 08-27-2015 10:37 PM                        So. Out of all of the available technologies, which is the best? Best picture and best sound? If money were no object?  |  IP: Logged Steve Guttag We forgot the crackers Gromit!!! Posts: 12814 From: Annapolis, MD Registered: Dec 1999 posted 08-28-2015 08:45 AM                     Really? A teaser subject combined with an impossible answer (subject to too many opinions and variables). So since you offered such a question: 70mm 6-track Dolby SR stereo...nothing beats it yet.  |  IP: Logged Adam Martin I'm not even gonna point out the irony. Posts: 3686 From: Dallas, TX Registered: Nov 2000 posted 08-28-2015 10:26 AM                     The Karate Kid  |  IP: Logged Mike Blakesley Film God Posts: 12767 From: Forsyth, Montana Registered: Jun 99 posted 08-28-2015 10:51 AM                        Cheap Trick. They still sound just as good as they did in 1976 and they're still out there gettin' it done night after night.  |  IP: Logged Mike Blakesley Film God Posts: 12767 From: Forsyth, Montana Registered: Jun 99 posted 08-28-2015 02:17 PM                        Best marshmallows: Campfire brand, they're way better than the much-more-popular Kraft. I can't believe it's been several hours already and nobody else is chiming in with "The Best" whatever. Buncha slackers.  |  IP: Logged Monte L Fullmer Film God Posts: 8367 From: Nampa, Idaho, USA Registered: Nov 2004 posted 08-28-2015 03:09 PM                     "Stay-puff Marshmallow Man!"  |  IP: Logged Mark Ogden Jedi Master Film Handler Posts: 943 From: Little Falls, N.J. Registered: Jun 99 posted 08-28-2015 03:19 PM                     Best pizza in NYC: Lombardi's, 32 Spring Street (corner of Mott St.) Cash only, no credit cards.  |  IP: Logged Monte L Fullmer Film God Posts: 8367 From: Nampa, Idaho, USA Registered: Nov 2004 posted 08-28-2015 03:23 PM                     Grimaldi's Pizza isn't bad either being coal fired and thin crust, but a franchise operation.  |  IP: Logged Steve Guttag We forgot the crackers Gromit!!! Posts: 12814 From: Annapolis, MD Registered: Dec 1999 posted 08-28-2015 04:06 PM                     Now the OP did say BEST TECHNOLOGIES and further best picture and best sound...so you can take your marsh mellows and roast them! However, Mike's Cheap Trick probably qualifies. I don't think Karate Kid won best picture or sound but I did get that it had "You're the Best" song in it. I still stand behind 70mm 6-track Dolby SR stereo as the BEST picture AND sound and technology.  |  IP: Logged Aaron Garman Phenomenal Film Handler Posts: 1470 From: Toledo, OH USA Registered: Mar 2003 posted 08-28-2015 04:25 PM                     The best technology is the washing machine. I mean c'mon, how crappy would it be to have to wash all your clothing by hand?  |  IP: Logged Mike Olpin Chop Chop!

George Wright made the theatre organ famous by producing vinyl stereo recordings for Hi-Fi enthusiasts to use demonstrating their wonderful vacuum tube music systems.  |  IP: Logged Dave Macaulay Film God Posts: 2321 From: Toronto, Canada Registered: Apr 2001 posted 08-28-2015 04:46 PM                     For movies - IMAX 15kW 2D 15/70 "GT" with the Sonics Associates sound system, either 6ch 35mm mag or Sonics 3xCD source. For anything that fits the parameters - Pink Floyd "Division Bell" live tour show.  |  IP: Logged Rick Raskin Phenomenal Film Handler Posts: 1100 From: Manassas Virginia Registered: Jan 2003 posted 08-28-2015 05:36 PM                     Best technology -- the thermos bottle. Keeps hot thing hot and cold things cold. But how does it know?  |  IP: Logged Buck Wilson Jedi Master Film Handler Posts: 894 From: St. Joseph MO, USA Registered: Sep 2010 posted 08-28-2015 05:58 PM                     Simplex Apogee? *Ducks under desk*  |  IP: Logged
