Anchorman: The Legend of Ron Burgundy celebrates it’s 20th anniversary this year. It’s quite hard to believe considering how fresh and ever-referenced it is now. We even have a sequel that somehow managed to continue the good times almost ten years after the original. Now, realistically, today, this movie could not be made the same. […]
This just in… ANCHORMAN: THE LEGEND OF RON BURGUNDY will celebrate its 20th anniversary this year and Paramount Home Entertainment will mark the occasion by releasing the absurdly hilarious, star-studded comedy on 4K Ultra HD Blu-ray Disc™ for the first time ever on July 2, 2024. It’s kind of a big deal. Released in theatres on July 9, […]
Bros was labeled as the first LGBTQ+ romantic comedy of all time. Major studio backed, maybe, but the label itself was a falsity. In the 90’s, we had a few movies come and go, some surprising, some not and some were from major studios, even if they had straight actors in the roles. What Bros […]
With iconic actor Bill Pullman getting praises as the titular character in the upcoming The Ballad of Lefty Brown and Director Jake Kasdan’s work soon to be on display via the less-than-anticipated Jumanji: Welcome to the Jungle, it felt timely to repost an MIA oldie but a goodie to remind folks of the genius side […]
There’s a point in Brad’s Status where Ben Stiller’s character is called out for what he considers to be his stumbling blocks in life. He’s told he falls under white, male privilege, with first-class problems. There’s no doubt Brad is an entitled character who spends the film providing voiceover about how his respectable, decent life […]
Another year, another sequel to a cult-favorite comedy. 15 years after Zoolander served as a light and silly comedy to help people laugh again, following the 9/11 tragedy that occurred weeks earlier, we now have Zoolander 2, which is severely lacking in laughs. The film is full of cameos and gags, but the idea of […]
Everyone’s favorite male models look even more good looking in high definition when ZOOLANDER hits the runway for the first time on Blu-ray in a new, Limited Edition Gift Set December 1, 2015 from Paramount Home Media Distribution. Sporting an original design and swathed in a signature “Blue SteelBook,” this season’s must-have gift comes fully accessorized […]

Ben Stiller (The Secret Life of Walter Mitty, Zoolander) and Academy Award® nominee Naomi Watts (Best Actress, The Impossible, 2012; St. Vincent) star in Academy Award®-nominated filmmaker Noah Baumbach’s (Best Original Screenplay, The Squid and the Whale, 2005) “blisteringly of-the-moment and classically zany” (Variety) comedy, While We’re Young, debuting on Blu-ray™ (plus Digital HD) and DVD (plus Digital) on June 30th from Lionsgate […]
I had fun with this film. There is more to read, but how much do I really need to say about the third film in a series about Ben Stiller interacting with museum exhibits that come to life at night, thanks to the power of a magic tablet? Okay, so maybe that sentence alone can […]
An assumption about The Secret Life of Walter Mitty is that it appears to be a light-hearted adventure comedy made for a trendy crowd, due to the use of various elements in its trailers. I would not necessarily agree, but that seems to have inspired a lot of ire in the film from some, for […]
I have never seen this one before, but I know my fellow WSB staff around here really thought the world of it so paint me curious about The Secret Life of Walter Mitty. And best of all…we don’t have too long to wait for what Fox deems the must-own movie of the year on Blu-ray. […]
We’ve come to it at last…my Top-10 film list for the year 2013. I’ll be upfront about it and say that I did not see most of the major and non-major films of 2013. I am only listing the films that I saw that made an actual impact in my life, for better or for […]
It feels like I am already in the minority on this one, but I think it has been clear in my writing over the years that I enjoy enjoying films, as opposed to trying to be negative. Sometimes my enjoyment falls in line with a majority of other folk who watch and write about film […]
Anchorman is one of those films I have not visited since its theatrical release way back in the calendar year of 2004. I cannot believe it has been that long, but I digress. What looked like a slapstick comical movie back then that I would go for practically fizzled for me when I first saw […]
Trailers are not posted very often, because we tend to be busy providing the latest coverage in regards to Blu-rays, movie reviews, and most recently – Comic Con. However, a recent trailer has launched for an upcoming film that puts Ben Stiller back in the director’s chair. The film is The Secret Life of Walter […]
This is not really a post of joy, but every year does see the release of films that are just not good. I do not try to seek out these films, with the majority being ones that I did think could have redeemable elements, but that just wasn’t the case here. This list contains what […]
I am all for a good comedy and fun & games, but I do also appreciate when the pieces of a film, no matter how initially scatterbrained, eventually work out within the realm of logic that said film has established. The Watch is very funny in various moments, because it features funny people getting to […]
