Batman Documentary “Legends Of The Knight” Coming To SDCC
Here is something that I am happy to spread more knowledge of, as I have been following this project for some time. I know I am not wrong in saying that we at Why So Blu are big Batman fans and look forward to future adventures involving him, let alone rewatching and possibly even rediscovering things about the Caped Crusader that continue to entertain us. Legends of the Knight is an upcoming documentary film that is focused on how Batman has been a hero for many people in real life. Filmmaker Brett Culp has set out to make a film that goes over the cultural impact that Batman has had over the year and thanks to a successful Kickstarter campaign, the film will be released to the public. Portions of the documentary film Legends of the Knight will debut at a SDCC panel on Friday, July 29 at 10:30am in room 26AB. The independent, not-for-profit film explores the inspirational impact of Batman and the power of heroic storytelling. Read on to learn more about this project/event.

Stop the press! I don’t care if it’s only a brief moment…word has it that Ashley Judd makes an appearance in Olympus Has Fallen and that’s good enough for me! It warms my heart that she’s actually in a movie that’s critically reviewed as being okay because God I swear she has made more bad choices in her career than…than…well you know the point I am trying to get across. LOL. So without further ado…I’m pleased to report the Ashley Judd 🙂 and Gerard Butler action vehicle Olympus Has Fallen is coming to the Blu-ray format on August 13th! The Blu-ray exclusives include five featurettes and a blooper reel. Check out the full press release below and pre-order your copy 
The “American Dream” comes to life when The Great Gatsby arrives onto the HD scene with Blu-ray 3D Combo Pack, Blu-ray Combo Pack and Digital Download on August 27th from Warner Bros. Home Entertainment with over 90 minutes of special features. I know I’m in the minority here, but its still in my Top 5 of the year so far (as referenced 
Happy Birthday mom! The long awaited The Dark Knight Trilogy: Ultimate Collector’s Edition hits Blu-ray on your birthday!!! What more can you ask for? All your prayers have been answered. And while I might be bittersweet that extended or re-cut editions of the film won’t be materializing, it is very nice to finally see word of this release. Everything you will find in this upcoming set including extras and memorabilia is chronicled and detailed for you below in the press release graciously furnished by Warner Bros. today! Thanks for spreading the good news! My mom and I will be happy this year! Enjoy! 
Try as I might, I just couldn’t find the time to make it to the theater this year to catch Michael Bay’s vacation from the Transformers franchise, Pain & Gain. I wanted to, but lady luck was never on my side unfortunately. However, I don’t let things like this get me down. After all, our very own Gerard once missed seeing a paid entrance to Oblivion because he was standing in line buying Rob Zombie albums. Things like this happen. Life happens. I knew I would eventually get a go around with this bad boy on Blu-ray and thankfully with today’s announcement it looks like I won’t be waiting too much longer. Check out the full press release from Paramount below. 
On June 5th, 2013, I was happy to attend a double feature of films by Sofia Coppola at the Aero Theater in Santa Monica. Of her films, the features played were Lost In Translation and The Virgin Suicides. In between features, Coppola showed up to participate in a Q&A, where she was open to answering all sorts of questions regarding her films, her directorial style, and approach to different features. I was able to record this conversation and am pleased to be able to present it in its entirety in this post. Continue on to listen to the entire Q&A and learn more about this fun event.
David Goyer has given us a fair share of memorable comic book turns and adventures. Now he takes to the small screen for the first time since Blade‘s short lived appearance. DA VINCI’S DEMONS proved a success on the Starz network this past season and was quickly renewed for a second season that has already buffed up its writing staff with Jonathan Hickman (The Avengers, The Manhattan Projects) and Matt Fraction (Fantastic Four, Hawkeye). In order to appreciate what they’re going to add, it’s probably best to brush up on Season 1. Whether you’re a fan or you missed it and would like to check it out, you’ll have your chance to catch up this September when Anchor Bay releases the complete first season on Blu-ray (already available for 
I was so against this movie when I heard there was not going to be any sign of the Baroness or Scarlett. They were the best parts of the first film, right? Well reluctantly I dragged my sorry butt to the theater months ago on a rainy Sunday afternoon and well…I actually really liked what I saw. As the title implies, G.I. JOE: RETALIATION exploded on the big screen with a loud bang and enough force to leave me wanting more…ahem…a sequel! And I’m getting it too! And best of all, Paramount has officially announced a July 30th release date for this bad boy and I couldn’t be happier! 
Hot of the press! Just in! Can I get a hell yeah?! AMC and Anchor Bay Entertainment will be bringing The Walking Dead: The Complete Third Season to Blu-ray this August. The magic date is the 27th, just 4 mere days before my birthday. What a glorious and “infectious” way for me to celebrate, huh? Say what you want about the show, but I LOVE it. I know a lot of people don’t like the way the governor was casted or portrayed during the third season, but as far as I’m concerned they can all fall by the way side. This isn’t the comics! Bring on more Governor! I want more! But I digress and I’ll hold those sentiments until our eventual Blu-ray review coverage this summer. Until then, check out the full press release below and pre-order Season 3 today! 
Yes! You read it right! The Wizard of Oz will be hitting the 3D and IMAX theaters for the very first time, for one week only, this September to celebrate its 75th anniversary. Wow! Can you believe it’s actually that old? Amazing! It all goes down the week of September 20th this year. And if that’s not enough, wait until you get a load of this. Warner Bros. will also release the 75th Anniversary Collectors Edition on Blu-ray, Blu-ray 3D, DVD and UltraViolet available October 1st. Wow again! But don’t take my word for it. Check out the full press release below. 
I kind of have this stubborn rule in life where if I don’t see a film within it’s first to second week of being released in theaters, I just wait for its eventual home video release. Such is the case with Stoker, but let the record show…I wanted to see this one very badly in the theaters, the Gods were just not on my side in the time department. However, my wish has come closer to becoming true as Stoker is now confirmed with a June 18th release date and I have the full press release and specs below from the upcoming release. Have at it! 
I was just texting back and forth between reviewer Aaron Neuwirth the other day how excited I am about this movie. Bash me all you want, but the surprise hit for me thus far this year has been the sic-fi thriller Oblivion. I just can’t get enough of that gorgeous flick and can’t wait to knock down my neighbors’ walls when I finally have that Blu-ray release in my grubby, long-fingered hands. But like I said, falling head over heels for that film was VERY MUCH a surprise. I already got burned on my huge expectations I had for The Hangover Part III, but I have faith in producer Christopher Nolan to do the right thing and not to let me down as I have not been this pumped about a film since last year’s Dark Knight Rises. Of course, I’m talking about Man of Steel, which openes in just two mere weeks…less than that really. Can you believe it? 
Are you ready to experience full-throttle revenge and digital blood spray like none other, then get ready for the legendary Sylvester Stallone’s Bullet to the Head when it debuts on the Blu-ray and Digital Download formats this July from Warner Bros. Home Entertainment Group. Thinking back, I think this was the very last movie I saw up in Cleveland before moving down to Austin so I guess you can say this flick holds a certain nostalgia in my heart because of that. And on July 16th I get to re-live that moment all over again. And you can too!
