I had a couple of “holy cow!” moments yesterday. You know the type — like when you suddenly realize that one of your favorite songs as a child was recorded by an artist you “discovered” later in your life. In my case, I learned something new about two classic movies I’ve always liked.
Yesterday [...]

The HD-DVD vs. Blu-Ray Disc format war is over, and the last shot was fired by Warner Brothers — as they announced yesterday that they will be going Blu-Ray exclusive. So confident are they in their choice, that they made this announcement on the eve of the CES show, where Toshiba’s HD-DVD group was [...]

Over at Yahoo, you can watch the first 8 minutes of Live Free or Die Hard in high def — pretty damn cool. Although this fourth entry in the venerable Die Hard action movie franchise is feared to be a more dumbed-down shadow of the series’ former self, I thought the first 8 minutes [...]

What an interesting amalgamation the title of this post would make. Unfortunately for the curious, it refers to two different things.
This evening, I went out with a friend to see 28 Weeks Later, that new zombie film which is a sequel to 28 Days Later. While I had seen the first film, I [...]

As I wrote yesterday, the Thai horror film Shutter has been released domestically. I also wrote about how the Borders store I was at on Saturday purportedly had a copy (in fact, according to Borders Online, it was the only Borders within reasonable driving distance to even have one copy). So today, in an impulsive [...]

Echoing a post made by Chief Oddball over two years ago, today I found out that the Thai horror movie Shutter has - at long last - found a Region 1 release, courtesy of Tartan Films. Reaper had informed me a while back that he thought Tartan was bringing this awesome film over, but today [...]

This post is coming to you in color, on location, very expensively…not from Thailand. Or China. Or the Eastern Hemisphere.
It’s also going to potentially be quite long, so strap yourselves in…or ignore it altogether. Your choice. There’s going to be a lot of stuff in here, because I don’t feel like writing out 15 separate [...]

A while back, I had read Superman Returns described as “Superman Catches Falling Shit”. Since then, I’ve been intrigued to see the movie (since I’m a Superman fan), which I finally did tonight. Perhaps sadly, the aforementioned description wasn’t too far off, though a better title for the movie might be “Superman Does a Lot [...]

I’m about to make the biggest upgrade to my home theater since I added my Toshiba 57HDX82 back in September of 2002. (I’d get all high-tech and link you to a vintage post about it, but those were all buried with my other purple site. Sorry.) Today I ordered a complete HTIB [...]

I was browsing the Agony Booth forums today and saw this little gem:
Stan Bush Working On Possible New Song For Transformers Movie
All I have to say is: YEEEAAAAAAHHH, YEEEEEEAAAAAAAAH!
Also: WILFORD BRIMLEY OATMEAL SLAM!
Edit: This is the ultimate in cheesy, bad ’80s music videos. That means, of course, that it’s probably the greatest thing ever.
