Yun nga lang, I usually watch DVDs on PC, coz as much as id like to watch it on TV, my daughter would just scream her lungs out if she sees me touching the DVD player and not inserting Barney or Teletubbies or Sesame Street.

Same sentiments here.

Though you're luckier, Battousai. In my case, My wife and/or I can only watch non-kiddie DVDs when my kid's asleep. Sounds like a fair deal if she sleeps early; but lately she's been sleeping by midnight on average.

He he he. Pareho pala tayo, bartmaniac. Pag tulog na baby girl namin, saka lang kami nakaka-nood ni Misis ng DVD. Ang hirap pa pag nanood kami, usually, date movie or comedy gusto ng wife ko. E, minsan, hinahanap-hanap ko yung mga Die Hard, or Fight CLub type na movies(pang-macho ba

)
Anyway, swerte kami kung matulog ng maaga anak namin, e, kung hihintayin pa namin makatulog saka maka-panood, chances are, antok na rin kami.
Haaaay. At least, isang yakap lang ng anak mo, tanggal lahat ng pagod mo.

Once the new DVD bought arrives at home!!!

I hardly have time to watch dvds these days. I only get to watch snippets of extra features while having lunch. I guess I'm looking for something to watch other than Eat Bulaga or MIB.

Have to start watching those Woody Allen dvds; maybe I'll start with Sleeper.

When my wife and my son is at my biyenan.....ehehehehe...saka lang ako nakakapanood..with no distraction..and full volume....

Buti pa kayo nakakasama nyo wifes nyo sa panonood nang dvd movies nyo....si esmi kasi hindi mahilig manood eh...mas gusto nya ang mga game shows, tele nobela's etc. etc.

We usually watch during the weekends but occasionally in the evenings during the week. I also try to watch with my wife and our baby isn't old enough to insist what he wants to watch.

I usually watch nowadays my DVDs on my 5.1 channel set-up right after arriving from work. Just pop-in the DVD and for sure before dinnertime, tapos na ako ng isa.

Then, after dinner, I pop-in another disc sa bedroom naman kaso 2 channel lang coz the wife doesn't want numerous speakers in the bedroom lalo na ang subwoofer. So we usually watch some love story or something like that which puts me to sleep.

Here in the Philippines there are a lot of rains and typhoons nowadays so that gives me all the reason not to go out and watch my DVDs!

good point, pero diba pag may typoon madalas din ang brown out? $:-\$

nerveblocker · « **Reply #74 on:** Aug 09, 2002 at 04:54 AM »

Bently- Unlike before, brownouts are seldom experienced during the rains. If ever there is, it would only last for like 10 mins then...tuloy ang ligaya!

I normally watch sa mga weekends or sometimes pag weekdays after work, I pop in one DVD and go to the scene index and just watch some of my more favorite moments in the DVD. But normally, I've been spending too much time playing FFx and WarcraftIII...

Toots · « **Reply #77 on:** Aug 12, 2002 at 11:24 AM »

usually on weekends pag walang magawa and when i get home early from work.

dni · « **Reply #78 on:** Aug 12, 2002 at 03:31 PM »

kung kelan lang may time. weekdays, weekends, pati hating gabi when i get home. i hardly get to watch them in one sitting. usually in 3 parts pa kasi inaantok na ako. and when i watch in the middle of the night i couldn't turn up the volume kasi baka magising ang ibang tao sa bahay...

Make sure you have an AVR para di bumigay ang HT equipment mo with the power fluctuations.

Very seldom do I watch DVDs with the movie all the way through with the special features. Usually I watch the movie early like in the afternoon and the special features before I go to sleep.

gandalf · « **Reply #81 on:** Aug 14, 2002 at 06:47 PM »

i try as much as possible to view the feature films in one go. the commentaries (if any) i usually reserve for another time, usually months after viewing the feature. by that time, the movies come out fresh (again). however, i find that there are dvds which irresistably merit viewing, special features and all, in one seating. all of kurosawa's films have this effect on me. you can just imagine what happened when i obtained 7 samurai. egat, the film is almost 4 hours long!

robertj · « **Reply #82 on:** Aug 15, 2002 at 09:33 PM »

I usually find the time to watch around 11:30 in the evening hanggang 2 in the morning. Yun lang kasi ang time ko para sa sarili ko.

Mrs. T · « **Reply #83 on:** Aug 15, 2002 at 10:00 PM »

Madalas pag Friday night, around 10:00 or so hanggang matapos na. Maybe up to madaling araw na, wala namang pasok next day. Then do the same thing Saturday night till Sunday dawn. Yun lang, dahil sa I want to spend the weekend with my two sons...

Mo®pHeOu$ · « **Reply #84 on:** Aug 29, 2002 at 12:27 PM »

Used to be during the weekends...pero ngayon hindi na masyado...I only find time to watch DVD kapag tulog si Baby Cid and yung papanoorin ko eh gusto rin ni Misis!!

bently · « **Reply #85 on:** Aug 30, 2002 at 02:11 AM »

i really love my new portable sony dvd player, now i get to see my movies where ever we go!...at the park, in the garage, patio, airport..etc. and ...it really make those long plane rides just fly by (no punn intended)

optimusprime · « **Reply #86 on:** Aug 30, 2002 at 05:27 AM »

between 11:30pm to 4:00am... la na kasing istorbo at mas maganda ang tunog ng HT sa ganitong oras...

I've revived my laptop with a DVD Rom so when I go on duty whenever there's no operation, I set up my Laptop with just 2 computer speakers and then watch until work disturbs me. So far it has helped me in not watching TV, not reading the newspapers, not being sociable and eating meals inside the quarters with a locked door para walang istorbo. I am becoming a hermit with this damn PC with DVD Rom. This is not good...not good!

Bruce_Wayne · « **Reply #88 on:** Aug 30, 2002 at 03:32 PM »

Weekends lang dahil walang work. Pero kapag gabi ako nanood, kailangan silent mode dahil tulog na si misis and ang baby. that's why the subtitles are very useful for me. Yun nga lang, di ko nae-enjoy yung sound, imagine, i got to watch Tomb Raider and Episode One in silent mode/subtitles only (napanood ko na siya dati sa sinehan kaya ok lang).

xage · « **Reply #89 on:** Aug 30, 2002 at 11:04 PM »

regardless what time... As soon as I pop up the DVD coming from its sealed case.. Man, What timeever.. I immediately play it....
