Not Green Lantern. Not Man of Steel. So there I was wishing for DC to get in the game, to hit us with some of that freaking fantastic material we all know is sitting in their vaults, when this little beauty of a trailer drops.

This is a weird segue into this Blu-ray review and I completely understand that, but rest assured it serves a point. Just mere weeks ago I was having a Skype meeting with some of the newer faces around here at WSB, Wes, Jerad, Shohan, Bron and Jordan, and I was kind of telling them about the perils of how I have seen people succumb to their demons and fail miserably around here. However, after watching Straight Outta Compton last night I recall that Paul Giamatti’s character sums up what I was trying to say to them that night so much better so I kind of wanted to loosely transcribe what was said in the film because it not only applies to the life of a prominent reviewer, but also to anybody in show business. He simply said too much ego, excess and expectations tend to ruin things. Like Han Solo, I’ve been all across the galaxy of life and I can attest this is one crux humankind always seems to get hung up on, whether intentional or not, but I digress. Yo Dre! I got something to say! Continue reading ‘Straight Outta Compton: Unrated Director’s Cut (Blu-ray Review)’

There are two small, but deeply touching moments in Star Wars: The Force Awakens that played the right note on my sense of nostalgia and simultaneously confirmed the true feeling of humanity that was restored to the Star Wars franchise in 2015. I will discuss both of the moments below, but first I want to give a shout out to Shohan Cagle for detailing fairly precisely the same reasons that Inside Out would have been the movie I wrote about in this column if I didn’t choose the one I did. Please go check out his contribution to this “Why We are So Blue” set of articles on this website. Continue reading ‘The 2015 Film That Made Bron Cry: Star Wars: The Force Awakens’
