    I just finished watching The 'Burbs, during a nice summer rain storm with thunder and lighting on a late Friday night. I could here it from inside my living room while watching the movie, such a great atmosphere. I noticed a couple of things that I'm sure have already be noted. Inside Walter's...

  4. German songs I like

  5. DVDs

    My VHS copy seemed is a little darker too. It was actually really good quality for a VHS tape. The DVD looks its best when I watch it via my PS3 which up-scales it to 1080p on My LCD TV.
  6. German songs I like

    I'm half German; my mother is originally from Nuremberg. She came to Australia with her parents in 1960. I would to go there one day; it looks like such a beautiful city. I don't know any German songs but I like the German version of David Bowie's Heroes.
  7. RIP Henry Gibson

    In a town a couple of hours drive from where I live there a little fish 'n' chip shop that sell the best chips around. My best friend and I have come to refer to this shop as 'Klopeks' because the owner has a striking resemblance to Henry Gibson. We didn't see a Hans or Ruben; we think they...
  8. It's Burbs Day 2011!

    I love this Burbs Day idea. I'm guessing it's on the anniversary of the film's release?

    Yeah I figured it out about 10 minutes after I asked how to do it. :)

    What RayPeterson? What did you know was going to happen?
  12. iBurbs

    That can be arranged. Burbs for my iPad 2 has failed. It plays fine and looks decent but the audio is out of sync. :(
  13. Greetings from Australia

    I didn't feel like it, I had that thing in my stomach again.
  14. Every time I watch the Burbs! The COUNT thread...

    No we definitely don't have a white Christmas. It's usually hot with flies buzzing around everywhere because of all the BBQ going on. Hans would be right at home, flies seem to like him lol.
  15. DVDs

    I'm happy with my DVD; it has a nice grainy look to it. It will be interesting to see if there really is much difference in UK version.
  16. iBurbs

    It took a while to convert the DVD so I let run while I was in bed. About 3:30am I'm woken by a siren, then I hear a guy say "Siren mode, pretty neat hey?" For a moment I thought there was someone in the house, but it was just Rumsfield, I left the speakers on.
  17. Avatars?

    I was wonder that too, I can't seem to find anywhere to edit my profile. I would like to put Australia as my location and I have a avatar picked out.
  18. Goofs

    Excellent observations; I've seen the film countless time and haven't noticed any of them, probably because I'm too distracted by the film's greatness.
  19. Ah, I´m finally here...

    If you don't mind me asking, where are you from?
  20. DVDs

    I also have the DVD and a VHS copy which was part of a Tom Hanks Box set from years ago. I agree the DVD could be better so after some research a few days ago I purchased a copy of the UK DVD release which apparently has the best picture quality next to the 720p HD broadcast on American TV.
