High Definition Optical Discs (Blu-ray and HD DVD)
A lot of older releases on the list this week, and honestly not too much that stands out to me outside of the pick… MissingRemote’s Pick of the Week Unstoppable ** Denzel Washington and Chris Kline on a train for 2 hours? Oh yes, this is a thrill ride! It actually was fairly entertaining, as the two battle to stop […]
Read moreI’m sorry if you enjoyed Paranormal Activity 2 and were expecting it to be our pick of the week given my propensity to select horror/suspense films, but I’ve now been bored in both of those films. I honestly intended to watch “I Spit On Your Grave” but didn’t get to it, but I’ve heard it’s quite the film, albeit disturbing. […]
Read moreLots of releases this week, just not a lot of them are new I’m afraid. I actually had trouble coming up with some sub-recommendations, which is why the I’m-sure-it’s-awful Beverly Hills Chihuahua 2 is on there. So let it be known, that is NOT a recommendation! MissingRemote’s Pick of the Week Let Me In Based off a best selling book […]

This has since been yanked from even the user who reported it, but this would make sense from Amazon’s side as they try to really get in the digital streaming game, but you’d have to believe they would charge more than just a Prime membership. That’s a nice bonus for the $79 / year package that currently adds a few […]
Read moreSome decent Blu-rays out this week, nothing earth shattering but we’ve seen worse weeks. I swear I enjoyed the original Saw, but they are really running out of steam and I’m happy to hear this is the last chapter of the series, which feels like they’ve had a new one every 9 months for the last 8 years. I haven’t […]
Read moreI always wondered about this, basically since users could essentially share Netflix accounts to stream, but guess Netflix caught on and have since locked it down pretty tight, only allowing 2 streams at a time. Netflix is now limiting how many devices can be watched at one time on the Unlimited Watch Now plan. The originally had it where 4 […]
Read moreDoes 90+ minutes of watching Ryan Reynolds trapped in a box sound like a good time for you? If so, you are going to be ecstatic about Buried. Honestly, the movie was much better than I thought it would be, and Reynolds does a pretty good job of keeping it flowing. Paper Man was a pretty entertaining film as well, […]
Read moreOh Piranha, how you tempted me greatly to be the pick of the week. Your combination of style, substance, and absurd amount of blood and gratituitous nudity made you a worthwhile competitor. For those younger audiences, Raging Bull and Once Upon A Time in America are CLASSICS and pretty much established Robert Deniro in the world. If you haven’t seen […]
Read moreAbsolutely weak selection of movies this week, so bear with me. MissingRemote’s Pick of the Week Resident Evil: Afterlife Have to be honest, I wasn’t a big fan of this 4th? 5th? Installment of the Resident Evil series of movies, based off the mega popular video game. To be fair, I actually enjoyed the first few of them, but […]
Read moreSolid selection of movies this week. I’ve heard good things about MicMacs, a foreign film but not seen it yet. Same about Despicable Me, with Steve Carrel’s voice. Cyrus is a drama featuring the super funny Jonah Hill…curious to see how that’s going to work out. I really need to jam on my movie watching! Btw, those of you interested […]
