The [...]
Cancer Comedy! See, when you scream that at someone, besides the natural awkward chuckle some may have, selling this idea may not be the obvious path to success. There is a tendency to make a film covering this sort of topic feel too sentimental or overly expressive in how it wants to make you feel. [...]
So now that we have left the summer movie season behind (a recap featuring the Why So Blu crew’s top picks can be found HERE), it is time to get into the big fall releases. There are a lot of great looking releases on their way, including both “prestige” level films as well as those [...]
The Dragon Warrior, a panda bear named Po, is back with his team of martial arts animal warrior friends known as the Furious Five in this gorgeous sequel to Kung Fu Panda. I emphasize gorgeous, as the animation (which includes different animation styles), use of color, and martial arts choreography are all wonderfully executed (it [...]
It seems like 2011 is going to be littered with aliens and otherworldly beings. Paul falls into that category and I feel I must clarify what it is, as the TV spots I have seen for it do really poor justice to what is quite a funny movie. Paul is an R-rated, road trip, buddy [...]
Continuing the recent streak of films I covered panels for at last year’s Comic-Con comes a science fiction comedy like none other from the brains behind Hot Fuzz. Of course I’m talking about the aptly named film Paul. And E.T. thought he was special for having a feature named after himself. LOL. What I [...]
Seth Rogen, Jay Chou, Oscar Winner Christopher Waltz and Cameron Diaz all starred in this years #1 Action Comedy. What was it? Well, it’s The Green Hornet, but of course! Sony Pictures Home Entertainment has officially announced the Blu-ray title for a May 3rd release. And best of all…it comes in two flavors, 3D and [...]
Since I am so late to the game with delivering a review of The Green Hornet, I thought I would try a slightly different approach here. How many of you already saw the film over the past weekend? Well according to Box Office Mojo, The Green Hornet scored the highest grossing opening ever for a [...]
When it was announced that Seth Rogen would be starring as the Green Hornet, many first asked, “Wait, who’s the Green Hornet?” The second thing asked was, “So he’s kind of like The Shadow…wait, who’s The Shadow?” But finally, people asked, “Wait, Seth Rogen is going to play a superhero?” And so he was, and now, some time later, the time of The Green Hornet is finally upon us. After many months of delays, different directors, cast members, and a post-conversion to 3D, the film stands as a potential blockbuster (even with its January release date). Fortunately, I had fun with this film overall. Unfortunately, I would simply describe it as “ok”.
I first became aware of the upcoming Simon Pegg comedy adventure, Paul, through my involvement over at leiasmetalbikini.com. The webmaster over there filled me in on the filming late last year, as it pertains to all things Comic-Con and of course, girls dressed in scantily clad Princess Leia metal bikinis. The film has a ridiculous [...]
When I first saw the stills of this posted around Comic-Con last year I instantly thought how stupid and how I would never see/support it. Well that all kind of changed yesterday when I caught my first glimpse of Seth Rogen’s official Green Hornet movie trailer. I know it’s a trailer and I should not get my [...]
Funny People…here’s a film that I unfortunately did not catch in the theater, but I am anxiously awaiting my first viewing of it on the Blu-ray format. As previously reported, Universal Studios is dropping the film on Blu-ray November 24th. The release will see a 1080P video presentation with a 5.1 DTS-HD Master Audio comedic [...]
