1. Let's Be Cops

UK Theatrical Release Date: August 27th 2014
Genre: Comedy, Crime
Starring :Jake Johnson, Damon Wayans Jr,  Nina Dobrev
Director: Luke Greenfield


Sometimes it pays to be simple. Case in point? Let’s Be Cops, a buddy comedy that takes one neat idea – wouldn’t it be cool to act like a cop? – then knocks it out the park. Located a couple of doors down from 21 Jump Street, Luke Greenfield’s caper also recalls the infectious recklessness ofCatch Me If You Can and Kiss Kiss Bang Bang, other films that hang on the notion of reinvention through deception. In New Girl actors Jake Johnson and Damon Wayans Jr., meanwhile, it boasts an instantly winning double act that, at its best, recalls the lightning-in-a-bottle chemistry of Mel Gibson and Danny Glover in the Lethal Weapon series. 

2. Obvious Child

UK Theatrical Release Date: August 29th 2014
Genre: Comedy, Drama
Starring: Jenny Slate, Jake Lacy, Gaby Hoffmann
Director: Gillian Robespierre


In being brave, scrappy, and not quite as funny as it thinks it is, Gillian Robespierre’s controversial romcom mimics its heroine, a down-on-her-luck Brooklyn comedian (Jenny Slate) struggling to tell a straight-laced one-night stand that she’s become pregnant. We’re in Girls territory here, with awkward, confessional dark comedy that slyly mocks hipster self-absorption while indulging in it.

Its raw edges, grungy setting, and matter-of-fact tone about abortion mark it out from sunnier unplanned-preggo comedies like Juno or Knocked Up. Fizzing with neurosis and nervous gags, Jenny Slate’s winning odd-couple romance with a gawky Jake Lacy carries the movie over the odd comic misfire. 

3. Night Moves
 
UK Theatrical Release Date: August 29th 2014
Genre: Drama
Starring: Jesse Eisenberg,Dakota Fanning, Peter Sarsgaard
Director: Kelly Reichardt
 
   
Not to be confused with the classic 1975 Gene Hackman detective yarn of the same name, Night Moves is the latest from US indie filmmaker Kelly Reichardt. Just as her last effort, 2010’s Meek’s Cutoff, was nominally a western so this, superficially, is a thriller, focused on a trio of eco-terrorists who plot to blow up a hydroelectric dam in Oregon.

Making up this radical threesome: Josh (Jesse Eisenberg), an environmentalist disillusioned with working on a commune; spoilt little rich kid Dena (Dakota Fanning), who bankrolls their scheme, and older ex-Marine Harmon (Peter Sarsgaard), an explosives expert with a cloudy past. 

Let’s go to cinema right now. Enjoy it and have fun!

Top Android DVD Ripper - Converter DVDs to Android Tablet-Phone

What if you'd like to enjoy your favorite DVD movies when on the road? Bringing several discs along tend to be inconvenient, not to mention they jump on the most crucial scenes and are prone to scratches. Now that Android-based devices have rocked into the mainstream, there's an easy way taking DVD movies alongside, i.e., ripping DVD and putting movies onto your Android tablet or phone. The process is easier than you may think, here I would throw this quick tutorial up on how to backup and rip DVD to Android compatible video formats.
 
Requirements: 

Don't get too excited on how to sync DVDs to your Android device just yet. Before anything else, you have to download two apps that you are going to use later. You are required to download and install:

Pavtube DVDAid (available for Windows or for Mac users). Get the free trial of Windows version here, and the free trial of Mac version here
 
Instructions: 

First, the most import piece of the equation is that you have a DVD Ripping tool hooked to your PC or Mac which helps you convert DVD to Android Tablet/Phone compatible video formats. Most of Most of you are likely familiar with the excellent Handbrake for ripping standard Def DVDs, however, it cannot yet decrypt the Disney DVD protection the way it can with regular DVDs, so you'll need to add an intermediate step. The software you'll need is called Pavtube DVDAid.
 
Basically the DVD to Android Converter is easy to use for editing and conversion and make great quality copies of my DVDs. I've had success using the program to crack and convert my DVD discs to a format playable by Asus Transformer Prime and Samsung Galaxy S3. I've found the quality to be excellent, and see no difference when compared to playing the discs themselves. The audio/video synchronization is very good, the size of the subtitles too. The time it takes to convert in this software is almost half that in other.

Converter supports almost all Android-based multimedia devices, so you should be able to create files compatible with your Asus Transformer Prime, Nook Tablets, Kindle Fire, Motorola Xoom, Galaxy S3, Google Nexus 7, Samsung Galaxy Note, Samsung Galaxy Tab, Acer Icnoia Tablets, HTC One X and more. You can even find optimized profiles for iPad (iPad, iPad 2, the new iPad), PlayBook, HP TouchPad, Apple TV and Sony PS Vita.

How to convert DVD to Android Tablet/Phone

The below guide uses DVD Aid Windows screenshots. The way to rip DVD to your Android device on Mac is almost the same. Just make sure you ge the right version.
 
1. Import DVD files to the top DVD Converter for Android.

You can load DVD Discs, DVD folders, ISO files or IFO files respectively. As you can see, added files can be previewed on the right viewing window and you can take snapshots of the movie scenes you like freely.

3. Click "Convert" button to start the conversion from DVD to H.264 MP4 for your Android device. 

Some helpful features of the app:

Subtitles – Select the subtitle language you like from "Subtitles" options. Meanwhile, you are able to choose your master language of audio track from "Audio" option.

Settings – Click "Settings" button to set the video/audio parameters for HTC One X. Remember the file size is based more on bitrate than resolution which means bitrate higher results in big file size, and lower visible quality loss.

So there you have it. Pretty Simple. Once the process completes, click "Open" button to locate the ripped DVD files and transfer DVD movies to your Android Tablet and Smartphones for watching on the go.

Convert TiVo Recordings to Mac H.264-compliant videos for iPad 3, iPod and Apple TV 3 playing

Summary:Here it shows some useful information on how to convert & transfer TiVo files to mac iTunes for Apple TV 3, new iPad 3, iPod streaming and playing with best HD video quality using a top TiVo Converter for Mac.

As the most advanced and innovative DVR (digital video recorder) ever built, the TiVo brings the best entertainment from cable and the web together in one place. That way we could record what we were already paying for and watch shows when I had the time to watch them. Yeah Tivo has a monthly fee but it's the principle of the thing! Besides, a new toy is cool and fun to play with. Our biggest problem with TiVo was working out how to get the shows from the TiVo box to our Apple TV 3, iPad 3, and iPods where we could watch them the way we wanted to.
 
transfer-tivo-to-mac-itune-for-atv-3-ipad-3
 
As is well known, the standard application for moving recordings from the Tivo box to the Mac is Roxio Toast. It's what Tivo recommends and it's what Hollywood has blessed. The problem with Toast is that DRM Tivo attaches to all recorded shows doesn't allow any editing or transcoding of your recorded Tivo file. That's when I started looking around for another way. What I found that worked best was an application called Pavtube Video Converter, a top Mac TiVo Converter.
  
The program is a great little application that allows you to download your Tivo recordings to your Mac. And it packs perfect support for TiVo recordings as well as HD footages, Flash videos, General Video, QuickTime video(*.mov), etc. With the application, you can easily convert TiVo HD shows to Mac iTunes compatible formats without quality loss for smoothly streaming with Apple TV 3, iPad / iPad 2 / new iPad, iPhone 4S and other iOS devices.

Convert/Transfer TiVo recordings to Mac iTunes for streaming to Apple TV 3, new iPad 3, iPod with original HD quality

Step 1: Launch the best TiVo Converter for Mac iTunes, Click on the "Option" button, switch to TiVo tab, and enter your Media Access Key. Click "OK" to confirm.

Step 2: Drag and drop the *.tivo files to the software.
 
transfer-tivo-to-mac-itune-for-atv-3-ipad-3
 
Step 3: Click on the pull down menu of "Format" and then tap "Appele TV", the preset "Apple TV 3 1080P Dolby Digtal Pass-though(*.m4v)" is recommended to you. The profile is speically designed for Apple TV 3 with 1080p HD effect.
 
transfer-tivo-to-mac-itune-for-atv-3-ipad-3
 
Some more helpful features of the app:

1. Settings- Click to set video resolution(1920×1080/1280×720/720×480), bitrate(from 2Mbps to 10Mbps), frame rate for different needs. For example, you can set birate from the default "8Mbps" to "4Mbps" for new iPad 3. (Note:The file size is based more on bitrate than resolution. I find that bitrate higher results in big file size, and lower visible quality loss)

2. Editor (next to "Add" icon)- click to set deinterlace, denoise, mute, volume up, trim, crop, etc.

Step 4: Start the process by converting TiVo to Mac iTunes H.264-compliant MP4 for Apple TV 3, iPad and iPod.

Step 5: Import new .mp4 file into iTunes (drag .mp4 file to the iTunes icon on the dock)

PS: Transferring TiVo recordings to Mac is not that easy and straight-forward as to PC. The TiVo Desktop software for the Mac (supplied by TiVo) does not allow user to transfer TiVo recordings to Mac, here I take some help from the freeware TiVoDecode Manager which gives you some of the features for taking content from your TiVo, moves it over to your computer, and automatically adds it to iTunes. Although it does have support for conversion, the quality of the result videos is poor and converting speed is so slow yet the output for apple devices are terrible.

On Apple TV 3, I browsed the iTunes library for the movie and it played the converted TiVo shows smoothly. I found the quality to be excellent and see no difference when compared to playing the TiVo recordings themselves. Of course, the same result as on iPad 3 and iPod.

If you want to enjoy your HD VideosBlu-ray movies , DVD discs and DVD (ISO) videos to your Apple TV 3, iPad and other Apple devices, you can also find the best solutions on Pavtube software, Now, you can get the biggest discount from Back to School special offer. Enjoy it!    

5 Tips to Get Your Movies Fit for Asus Transformer Prime Playback

My job requires international travel and I always watch movies on fight, with my 10.1-inch Asus Eee Pad Transformer Prime TF201. The Prime's big screen, quad-core processor and long battery life make it a perfect gadget for watching HD movies even Full-HD movies. Personally I think the device does a good job playing movies and gives sharp and vivid image. I was surprised by the fact that so many guys are having problems with movie playback when hanging around the forum and decided to share what I learnt with green hands. Hope this helps.

The 1st Tip: Better Put Asus Transformer Prime friendly videos to the device. The Prime plays various kinds of videos, but this does not mean it can play everything you throw at it. Let's see the Transformer Prime supported file types: 

Video: 3gp, mp4, wmv, mkv (Codec: MPEG4, H.263, H.264, XviD).
Audio: MP3, AAC, FLAC, WMA, WAV, OGG, MIDI

We don’t see VOB or MPG format here, which means the stock player does not play them.

The 2nd Tip: With a powerful third-party media player you can play more videos, e.g. the above mentioned vob and mpg videos. There are various android optimized universal video players. Recommended media players:

Rock Player (FEEWARE)
MoboPlayer (FEEWARE)
QQ Player (FEEWARE)

The 3rd Tip: Don't put copy-protected contents onto the Asus Prime Tablet. Movies purchased from online video stores (e.g. iTunes, Amazon) are restricted to specific computers and devices only. Unfortunately the Android devices have not get a license to play DRM contents which means Asus Transformer Prime is not granted to play DRM-protected videos. To have the device play these movie purchases, get yourself a DRM removal tool first (e.g.ChewTune).

The 4th Tip: Compress/convert your HD videos when necessary. By necessary I mean when the Asus Tablet pops up an error message saying unsupported file or plays video in slow motion.

Before long I owned Asus Transformer Prime, I noticed the Prime delivers smooth and clear 1080p video, but some 1080p contents still tend to run very slow on the device. Lower resolutions run pretty well. When it comes to some 1080p .mkv and avi videos, the playing speed slows down. I tried several other media players and finally realized it has to do with the hardware itself, seems like the device can not handle very high bitrate properly. After down-scale bitrate to 4mpbs the videos plays just fine.

The 5th and last Tip: The best settings for converting videos to Asus Transformer Prime depends. I’ve seen people asking for the “optimal settings” 3 or 4 times elsewhere, and am trying to answer this question. It is said that H.264 codec gives best quality at smallest file size, but I don’t see much difference between H.264 and MPEG-4. I tried to encoded an HD .mkv video to .mp4 with H.264 and MPEG-4 and find both play fine. DivX .avi videos look great too. I think the image quality is more related to video bitrate. When video bit rate is set higher, the converted video looks sharper. Here I put some test videos with settings for evaluation.

(click the links to play or download the sample videos )

These sample videos source a recent release Blu-ray “Thor”, I created them with a trial version of Pavtube Video Converter Ultimate (SHAREWARE), so there’s a watermark on the screen. Personally I think Sample 2 balance file size and video quality best.
