The film has been available on Digital HD since January 23. . .
Strap on your rocket booster packs ladies and gentlemen. Director Christopher Nolan’s awe-inspiring film, Interstellar, is blasting off on Blu-ray Combo Pack on March 31st. I couldn’t be more thrilled with this news. It comes a mere week before my vacation in April and that means I get to bring it with me digitally. Hell to […]
In my belief, most salesmen, prophets, religious establishments and even motivational speakers will tell you life is full of second chances. And like the fictional character of Jordan Chase in Season 5 of Showtime’s Dexter, if you want something badly enough in life, you just have to “Take It.” Quite honestly, I have always lived […]
There was never a question as to whether or not I was going to see Interstellar theatrically. On that same topic, there was also never even a question as to whether my first time checking it out would be in IMAX either. The only question I had unanswered throughout this whole year up until a […]
A lot of times there is an urge to compare films to other films. It may not be the best way to go about things, but it happens, regardless if one really wants to or not. I remember seeing 2001: A Space Odyssey when I was very young and being transfixed by it (regardless of […]
Not much to add on this one. For those who want more and more footage of Christopher Nolan’s highly anticipated follow-up to The Dark Knight trilogy and Inception, here is a brand new trailer that premiered at Comic Con. It continues to add a bit of understanding to what the story is, along with emphasizing the father-daughter aspect, as […]
All I knew about the first Rio going into this was that it was the film that topped the box office the weekend Scream 4 was released. It was a huge hit, taking almost half a billion dollars worldwide. In order to properly review Rio 2, I had to watch Rio before this and wow…I’m […]
Easily one of the most anticipated films of the year, Christopher Nolan is following up The Dark Knight Rises with a film that is surely going to wow in some way. With a fantastic cast that included Matthew McConaughey, Jessica Chastain, Anne Hathaway, and Michael Caine (apparently contracted to Nolan for life), this is a […]
Some key terms come to mind when I think new Christopher Nolan film – dark, brooding, auteur, IMAX, Zimmer, nonlinear, and Michael Caine of course. Interstellar is the next film from Nolan and it arrives in theaters November 2014. Those who saw The Hobbit: The Desolation of Smaug were treated to a teaser trailer for […]
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 […]
Modern made fairy tale movies don’t come all too often. And ones made for everyone in the family and kid friendly even rarer. In 2004, Miramax tried their best, delivering Ella Enchanted. The film works as a star vehicle for the up and coming (at the time) Anne Hathaway. It was based off a popular […]
Being the Blu-ray snob I have been ever since the fall of 2006, I’d never thought I would ever hear myself mutter the following words. It didn’t dawn on me until my move from Cleveland, OH to Austin, TX just how much cheaper it would have been to transport my 500 HD movies in the […]
Just Seen It is now on National PBS! Check your local listings or PBS website for day and time and if they don’t carry us, ask them nicely if they can! On this episode, we take a look at the nominees for BEST ACTOR and ACTRESS, BEST DIRECTOR and BEST PICTURE and pick who SHOULD […]
Right off the bat, I should say that between the novel by Victor Hugo, the stage play, and previous film adaptations, I am quite familiar with the story of Les Miserables. The idea of a big-budget film musical, with an A-list set of actors, and an Oscar-winning director certainly sounds like a success story in […]
Sean, Liz and Rachel want to sing their reviews (well, at least Sean does) but fortunately, they just talk about the movie instead. Enjoy! Starring Liz Manashil, Rachel Appelbaum and Sean Wright. Directed by Matt Breault. Synopsis: After breaking parole, Jean Valjean is tracked by the ruthless policeman Javert. Valjean finds redemption in his love and care […]
Back in 2000, director Christopher Nolan was just starting to build acclaim with his second feature film, Memento. Twelve years later, he has now directed his third film in an ambitious Batman franchise, which happens to also be one of the most anticipated films of all time. The Dark Knight is admittedly a tough act […]
When Christopher Nolan rebooted the Batman franchise with Batman Begins, I was ecstatic to see the Batman I had always imagined from the comic books come to life. Then came The Dark Knight which in my book was utter perfection in every way possible. At now sadly, we’ve come to the end of this amazing […]
You can ask anyone that knows me…go ahead…that very little in this life brings me more joy than my anticipation of the dramatic conclusion to Christopher Nolan’s Dark Knight franchise. That’s right. If you are reading this, then somehow I survived and made it through unscathed because the only thing I have had consistently cared […]
