Too bad I accidentally knocked my HDTV over last night and it blew up. I've got to stop putting my feet on it!

Although it's been on other cable channels in HD before, it might be interesting to see if they "bleep" any explicit language. (As they did to their BLACK CHRISTMAS broadcasts.)

Taxi Driver on MOJO? I didn't know they showed good programming? ;)

Great movie, thanks for the heads up.

Great movie, thanks for the heads up.Rarely. Sometimes they show good independent movies as well. But strangely enough they are showing an Ahnold movie, The Last Action Hero early tommorow morning too, so there you go (but I doubt it will be OAR).

They also "bleep" explicit language on concerts. I noticed while channel surfing the other day that MOJO is also putting obnoxious banners at the bottom during movies like TNT and Showtime telling the viewer what movie they are watching. Thank god for Cuban's two HDNet channels so I don't have to put up with MOJO's crap. I will say there is one thing on MOJO worth watching and that is Three Sheets.

HDNet Movies has shown this one, and they always do OAR. Noticed last night that it "filled up" my 16x9 screen. What's the aspect ratio on this movie? Does Mojo adhere to a non-OAR policy? If so, I sure won't be watching any movies there. :mad:

yes, MOJO is non-OAR. So 2.35 films are shown in 16X9 format. This doesn't affect TAXI DRIVER which has an aspect ratio of 1.85:1

Mojo left all the bad words in. I only noticed one "drop down" banner which was annoying but not as annoying as NBC and TNT-HD.

Naturally Mojo countered this classic movie by showing "Little Nikita" which is one of the silliest spy thrillers ever made. The idea of a teenager discovering his parents were Soviet sleeper agents was great but they completely ruined the story.
