Terrence Huntington, who composed the theme music for Home Theater Geeks, built his own home theater in the basement of his house way back in 2014. The space was very limited, but he made the most of it with a killer system. He called it the Duck and Cover Theater because it was barely big enough to stand up in, but once you were seated and the lights went down, it was movie magic.

Mark Kermode began reviewing films 40 years ago, and has established himself as one of our most foremost critics, both in print and on air. He co-presents Screenshot on Radio 4 and the podcast Kermode and Mayo's Take, with his long-term collaborator Simon Mayo. He's said he goes to every screening hoping it will be the next Citizen Kane – but he's also renowned for his energetic rants against the films he finds most disappointing. Music is another lifelong love – and for nearly 30 years he's played double bass in The Dodge Brothers, a skiffle band who have also performed live soundtracks for silent movies. And film music is the subject of his most recent book, Mark Kermode's Surround Sound, examining the complex relationship between what we hear and what we see. Mark's music includes Mica Levi, Strauss and Jelly Roll Morton.

Chris Weir built a stunning home theater with a fully committed Batcave design, and it's a wonder to behold.

Montag. Normalerweise der miesestes Tag der Woche. Aber dieser Montag wollte offenbar den Highscore knacken. Ich saß im „Karmaglück“, einem Laden, in dem die Laktoseintoleranz zum guten Ton gehört und der Barista aussah wie Jesus nach einem Praktikum bei Apple. Mir gegenüber: Uwe und Volker. Meine persönlichen Endgegner in Sachen „gelungenes Leben“. „Du musst da proaktiver werden“, hub Uwe an und nippte an seinem Matcha-Ingwer-Irgendwas. Er klang wie ein Kalenderspruch auf zwei Beinen. „Deine Grundhaltung entscheidet, mein Lieber.“ Volker, der in einem stillen Retreat in Berlin, „Reichstag“ oder so ähnlich, offenbar gelernt hatte, durch Nicken Weisheit zu simulieren, nickte. „Absolut. Alles eine Frage des Mindsets. Schulwahl, Beruf, Hobbys. Das ist wie Domino-Day. Jeder Stein muss richtig stehen.“ Ich dachte an meine Steine. Mein Abi: 3,4. Mein Job: T-Punkt-Salesman. Mein Hobby: die Fernbedienung finden. Mein Domino war eher ein Totalschaden auf der A1. „Nehmen wir die Liebe“, fuhr Uwe fort und legte seine Hand auf Volkers Unterarm, was mir kurz Angst machte. „Du findest nicht den richtigen Partner, du wirst zum richtigen Partner. Dann kommt der Rest von allein.“ Volker nickte wieder. Seine „beste Ehefrau von allen“ backt glutenfreies Brot und hat einen eigenen Töpfer-Account auf Insta. Meine letzte Freundin hat per WhatsApp Schluss gemacht, weil ich beim Tatort eingeschlafen bin. „Du musst Gelegenheiten ergreifen, mein Bester!“, predigte Uwe. „Mutig sein. Dir was gönnen!“ Er sah mich an, als wäre ich ein liegengebliebenes Testabo. „Wir fliegen nächstes Jahr nach Peru. Selbstfindung auf 4000 Metern. Muss man sich auch mal gönnen.“ Mein letztes „Gönnen“ war die große Tüte Chips statt der kleinen. „Es geht um Zufriedenheit“, schloss Volker sein Nick-Seminar ab. „Ruhe. Gelassenheit. Du darfst dir den Spaß nicht vermiesen lassen.“ In diesem Moment vibrierte mein Handy. Eine Push-Nachricht meines „Geiz ist geil“-Service: „MediaMarkt: 50 % auf alle Soundbars!“ Das war mein Notausgang. Mein Rettungs-Airbag. Mein Defibrillator. Ich sprang so schnell auf, dass Jesus an der Kaffeemaschine zusammenzuckte. „Sorry, Jungs, absoluter Notfall! Ich muss los!“ Uwe und Volker starrten mich an. „Was ist denn passiert?“ „Soundbar!“, presste ich hervor. „Ganz dringender Soundbar-Vorfall. Ich muss... die Gelegenheit ergreifen. Mutig sein!“ Ich knallte einen Zwanziger auf den Tisch und rannte aus dem Laden. Während ich Richtung Straßenbahn sprintete, dachte ich nur eins: Gelassenheit, ihr Pfeifen? Könnt ihr haben. Ich gönn mir jetzt erst mal richtig phätten Surround-Sound für meine Zwei-Zimmer-Wohnung. Das ist MEINE Art von positivem Mindset. Rock on!

A recent article on ZDNet talks about how modern TVs monitor your viewing habits using ACR (automatic content recognition) and why that could be a problem for you. The article also explains how to disable ACR in various makes of TVS, but the instructions don't always match the TV's menu system. Scott Wilkinson talks about this important issue.

Andy Z is building a home theater in his basement with a JMGO N1 Ultra projector mounted on the ceiling. Unfortunately, there's a big AC duct running across the ceiling; if he puts the projector in front of the duct, the image is too small for his screen, but if he puts it behind the duct, the image is too big. How to solve this dilemma? Scott Wilkinson offers some advice.

Representing the color-reproduction capabilities of a video display in a two-dimensional graph is highly problematic; usually, the graph does not reveal a true and complete picture (pun intended) of what's going on. A new approach to this problem, called gamut rings, provides a much more accurate and complete representation of what a display can do.

Diese Frage versuchen diesmal André, Antje und Schröck zu beantworten, indem sie nicht nur die Kino- und Streamingneustarts dieser Woche, sondern auch die der vergangenen sowie das komplette Programm der FANTASY FILMFEST NIGHTS beleuchten. Dabei wird es ordentlich blutig, denn nicht nur eine Mörder-Maus und ein Killer-Einhorn machen in SCREAMBOAT und DEATH OF A UNICORN Jagd auf mal mehr, mal weniger unschuldige Opfer. So richtig schmerzhaft wird es vor allem im Fall SHADOW FORCE, dem vielleicht schlechtesten Film des Jahres 2025. Außerdem bläst ein Altbekannter zum Angriff auf die Oberschicht, denn der Protagonist aus MUXMÄUSCHENSTILL meldet sich in einem zweiten Teil zurück. SYSTEMSPRENGER-Star Helena Zengel muss derweil ein kleines knuffiges Fantasiewesen vor ihrem blutrünstigen Vater beschützen und begibt sich in dem zauberhaften Abenteuerfilm DIE LEGENDE VON OCHI auf eine Odyssee durch wunderschöne Landschaften und Wälder. Wunderschön wäre gern auch die Hauptfigur aus THE UGLY STEPSISTER, einer radikalen Neuinterpretation des Märchens „Aschenputtel“ - und für André, Antje und Schröck das Highlight auf den diesjährigen Fantasy Filmfest Nights. Da können die drei schon beim Trailer kaum hingucken, der nicht zufällig Erinnerungen an THE SUBSTANCE weckt. Seid daher gewappnet für allerhand Exzesse und Schmierigkeiten, aber auch für viel Herz und ein bisschen (NETFLIX-)Action in dieser prall gefüllten Ausgabe von KINO PLUS.

Ken Fritz built what many consider to be the world's best stereo system, spending upwards of a million dollars on it. But the cost was much higher than mere dollars. In the end, was it worth it?
