Brian’s TOP 10 Blu-ray Picks of 2011

It’s that time of the year already.  I have been through so much this year so I thought f$&k it.  I want to try something new this year.  In the past few years, I had this complex algorithm where I weighted a disc by its film score, audio/video presentation and how many special features it […]

A sexy flight attendant (Grier) is caught in a plot between the police and an arms dealer, and everyone’s looking for the payoff.  There are six unlikely players on the trail for a big score – a half million dollars in cash.  But alliances are shaky when its unclear who is playing and who is […]

Official: Hobo With A Shotgun Poster!

Hobo With A Shotgun was originally released with certain prints of  Robert Rodriguez and Quentin Tarantino’s Grindhouse a few years ago.  It was a fake trailer created for Rodriguez’s Grindhouse competition.  That’s all it took before director Jason Eisener decided to make a feature length film with Rutger Hauer in the lead as the Hobo…with […]

El Mariachi/Desperado (Blu-ray Review)

The Robert Rodriguez library on Blu-ray continues to expand.  Columbia Pictures proudly present: the first two films in the Robert Rodriguez “Mexican” trilogy.  It’s only fitting that a real Mexican was tasked with (okay I volunteered) to review the Rodriguez Mariachi series on Blu-ray.  Once again, this will be a cumulative review, but I will […]

Aaron’s Top 10 Blu-rays of 2010

As little time as I have to actually sit at home and watch all the Blu-rays I own and check out all the special features they have to offer, there are a certain number of films that I could not pass up when it came to checking them out at my own leisure, in the comfort of my own home. The following list is set of films that I consider to be some of the best that the Blu-ray format has had to offer for this year.

Thor’s TOP 16 Vampire Movies

With the recent release of New Moon, the latest installment in Summit’s Box-Office behemoth the Twilight Series (or Saga, or whatever they’re calling it), vampires seem to be on everyone’s mind nowadays; be it for the tweens’ phenomenal adoration of them or the fan boy disdain of what they represent.  One thing is for sure; […]

Welcome to our exclusive red carpet coverage of Spike TV’s Scream 2009 awards ceremony!  If red carpet coverage of Scream 2009 is what you desire, then look no more.  Words cannot express the exuberant hysteria that overcame my editor and myself, this past Saturday, as we covered the red carpet ceremonial entrance of the stars in […]

The Daily Blu…September 28, 2009

Jon’s Analytical Coverage of Inglorious Basterds

I wouldn’t exactly say I’m a huge Quentin Tarantino fan.  I think some of the hype about him as a director overlooks the fact that he, just like Martin Scorcese, lifts almost everything he does from other films.  Of course this can turn into a long discussion about the nature of plagiarism and its place […]

Gregg Infiltrates The Inglorious Basterds

The Inglorious Basterds.  Ah, Mr. Tarantino likes to use shock value not only in his films, but also in his films’ titles.  I have to be honest.  Before I saw this movie and people asked me what it was like (which is a bit odd considering they knew I hadn’t seen the movie at the […]
