Human Target almost made my pick of the week, mainly because it was the MissingRemote community which turned me on to it after a bad first experience, and now it’s one of my regular shows. Robin Hood is the newest big release coming out, but having not seen it and being iffy on its worthiness, I had to go with […]

When I saw Big Bang Theory’s Season 3 available, it took every ounce of control to NOT select that. I figure most of us probably already know about it, so it’s too obvious a pick. Feast was too bloody to recommend to a whole group. I hope everyone has already seen One Flew Over the Cuckoo’s Nest, a Jack classic! […]

Lots of releases this week, most older than new with some good ones like The Black Dahlia, Mars Attacks! and I was really tempted to go with Poltergeist as my pick simply due to its classic nature in the horror genre. MissingRemote’s Pick of the Week MacGruber  ** I am fully prepared for some flames for this request, but let […]

Right off the bat, I know I’m going to get a hard time for NOT picking Sam Raimi’s awesomely classic Evil Dead. In my defense, I loved that movie, but I really didn’t like it nearly as much as I had hoped having seen Army of Darkness first. So there you go. House 5th season is a great one as […]

Lots more to choose from this week from last, but still not that many great ones that stand out. Obviously the Lost Complete Collection will excite many people, but that was too obvious a selection. I love LOST, but not sure I could watch every episode again. I was thoroughly bored through Dorian Gray for what it’s worth. Another great […]

I can’t remember the last time I had such a difficult time with such few Blu-ray releases. Cemetary Junction looks like it has potential I suppose. Nanny McPhee if you have kids I’d imagine? MissingRemote’s Pick of the Week Hamlet **  Shakespear’s always a good solid recommendation right? Kenneth Branagh is a quality actor and he’s got the accent down. […]

If you’ve been following our news surrounding Blockbuster for a while you won’t be surprised by their Q2 quarterly financial filings. While I don’t like to see any company have financial issues like this, for years Blockbuster has failed to evolve their business model and continued to charge ridiculous prices for movie rentals.   It’s not a fair fight: Blockbuster […]

Pretty interesting Saturday graphical read on Netflix compared with Redbox if you’re interested. Click through to get the full graphic which is much larger than the below.   [Hacking Netflix]  

Bit of a slower week this time, but still some jewels here. Legend of Fong Sai Yuk is AWESOME if you are anything of a kung-fu fan, with a very young Jet Li showing off his stuff. Haven’t seen The Joneses yet, but as a fan of Californication it’s definitely on my to-do list. And then who can forget National […]

Lots of good releases this week including some classics being released such as Breakfast Club and Fargo. Splinter was a fun gruesome fest, as was the classic Kalifornia. Honestly wasn’t too big a fan of Bull Durham, but there are out there so it’s out on BD now as well. Oh and Charlie’s Angels, how could I have missed that. […]
