Continue on to see the new teaser set to air during the Superbowl, along with a new poster […]
He’s back. Whether or not you want him to be, Schwarzenegger is returning to the world of Terminator in the awkwardly titled Terminator Genisys and everyone will have a chance to see a first look at their favorite cybernetic killing machine in the first trailer coming this Thursday. For now, check out this new motion poster. ‘ ‘
If the year 2011 taught us nothing but the fact that good things can come from rebooting a beloved franchise, then I’d be alright to call it a day right here and now. Never in my wildest dreams could I have ever conjured up such a crazy notion that the quirky Planet of the Apes franchise could ever be […]
The only thing more complicated than the time traveling plotline of the original Planet of the Apes franchise is realizing that Dawn of the Planet of the Apes is the sequel to Rise of the Planet of the Apes, the reimagining of the fourth film in the previous franchise, which took place before the first […]
If the year 2011 taught us nothing but the fact that good things can come from rebooting a beloved franchise, then I’d be alright to call it a day right then and there. Never in my wildest dreams could I have ever conjured up the belief or the cohones that the quirky Planet of the Apes franchise could […]

The flick also stars Emma Booth […]
So another year has come and gone way too quickly, bringing with it a long list of great movies as well as some I wish I could get the hours of my life back. So with this being said, if you are anything like me, then you have a hard time choosing which movie to […]
The calendar year of 2013 was a tough one for me in the film department. However, unlike my recent Top 10 Blu-ray list over here, where I struggled to even find ten Blu-rays that I really really liked in 2013 (only leaving off Cloud Atlas), I find myself faced with a smorgasbord of films that […]
Last week was busy with trailers for many big releases next year (posts can be found HERE and HERE) and this week adds one more hotly anticipated summer film: Dawn of the Planet of the Apes. As I recall, the majority of us at Why So Blu were big fans the 2011 sci-fi prequel/reboot, which […]
It was unfortunate that White House Down did not connect with a bigger audience this past summer. While by no means perfect, it was easily everything one could ask for in a good time at the movies, during the summer movie season. It is filled with action, has a great cast, and a lot of […]
Before visiting The Great Gatsby theatrically this spring, I strongly held the opinion that this was either going to be one of those films you’d love or you’d hate with uncompromising passion, no middle ground in the equation. I know I found myself seriously conflicted in how I felt about it for months before I saw […]
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 […]
So far we have had three ‘Die Hard’ movies and I have been entertained by two of them; neither of which starred Bruce Willis. White House Down is the second film this year, following Olympus Has Fallen, to feature the White House being held hostage by terrorists. While the films are somewhat different in what […]
A Baz Luhrmann-directed adaptation of F. Scott Fitzgerald’s acclaimed novel “The Great Gatsby” is either the summer blockbuster for everyone else or the obscure one that joins the fold of all the others. Everyone that has gotten their fill of superheroes, disaster films, alien invasions, and other high concept ideas, now has the option of […]
Before entering Tuesday evening’s press screening of The Great Gatsby, I strongly held the opinion that this was either going to be one of those films you’d love or you’d hate with uncompromising passion, no middle ground in the equation. I know I found myself seriously conflicted in how I felt about it these past […]
You want to be part of the greatest manhunt known to man, don’t you? Sure you do, silly! From the Academy Award-Winning Writer and Director of The Hurt Locker, the greatest manhunt in history, Zero Dark Thirty, comes home to the Blu-ray format on March 19th. The film has been nominated for five Academy Awards […]
I kind of feel sorry for my fellow reviewers here because for weeks now they had to hear me complain left and right about Zero Dark Thirty not being theatrically released within the calendar year of 2012 in the greatest city in the world, Cleveland, Ohio. So therefore, just about every critic in Los Angeles […]
