And randomly, Paramount has decided to flip over to us the 4K Ultra-HD Blu-ray upgrade of Best Picture winner Forrest Gump. There’s no milestone the film is hitting this year, but they seem to be mixing in their Best Picture winning films (Previously Gladiator and Braveheart) in with the genre/franchise films they tend to lean […]

Here we are in 1978 where Burt Reynolds is peaking so very damn hard. While some may now be like “Hoop-what?”, Hooper was a big deal in 1978. The film was a follow up to the massive hit, Smokey and the Bandit the year prior. Smokey would have been the biggest film of 1977 had […]
When I moved to Austin, TX over a year ago from Cleveland, OH I expected my change of scenery to be quite stimulating and invigorating, but you all know that whole grass is always greener on the other side thing, right? While the skies may not be grey all the time like in Cleveland, I […]

A little side note to my Blu-ray review of Norma Rae to start off. My screenwriting professor in college’s big claim to fame in his movie making career was working on this movie. It was an Academy Award nominated film and the one that nabbed Sally Field her first Best Actress statue. While I don’t […]
Sorry about the title, but I saw the door open and went there. Sally Field’s Academy Award winning performance as a millworking union leader is making the jump to Blu-ray. Norma Rae was also nominated for several other Academy Awards and took home 2 statues. This was actually one of the higher profile films that […]

Lincoln is a film that has been a long time coming. I remember hearing about early stories of director Steven Spielberg working on getting a movie made about Abraham Lincoln, with Tom Hanks being rumored for the role. Then things became more official, as Liam Neeson was said to be attached. The time passed, Neeson […]
I guess I’ll just get this over right from the get go. You may proceed to throw proverbial stones if you want. I know I’m in the minority here. Spider-Man 3 was my favorite flick of the Raimi trilogy. Ouch! Ooh! Ah! That hurts. But hey! I have my reasons for liking it, and regardless […]

The Amazing Spider-Man sits in a very difficult place. Despite the fact that Spider-Man is one of the most universally loved superheroes, the idea of a new movie that recaps his origins seems to be perplexing to many people. It has only been 10 years since the first Spider-Man, and within that time frame, two […]
