Obligatory DVD Release Post 10/19/2010

Tuesday, October 19, 2010

Excuse me, but I'd like to steal a moment here away from DVD's to help plug a form of entertainment of another kind. Fellow film lover, blogger, and all around great guy, Alex J. Cavanaugh is celebrating a day many of us hope to one day experience. The official publication, and release, of his very first novel - CassaStar. A sci-fi adventure space opera book about a young pilot named Byron.

So, if you have a moment, head on over to his blog at AlexJCavanaugh.blogspot.com and show your support!

New Releases:

 Predators: No sir, I can't kill you now, it would make for a very boring movie. Instead I'd rather you run around a lot on my planet, so that I can see how many odd situations I can put you in. Hopefully, if all goes well, we'll be able to sneak in a Laurence Fishburne cameo! Who knows, we may even have a samurai sword fight! Don't worry though, this is nothing like the original Predator at all. We have Topher Grace.... and Adrien Brody. I rest my case.

Agora: Rachel Weisz + Movie = Uni There. It's a time tested system that has never failed. Perhaps I shouldn't crush on her, but I can't help it. I think we're all allowed at least one performer crush. She's mine. Alas, away I go!

Please Give: I'm not sure how quick I'll be to check this one out, but I must say I like the talent involved. Hall, Platt, Keener, and Peet might sound like the making of some odd country dish, but I like what they've done (granted, each has their head banging, please god no! film).

Other Releases: Holy Rollers (Eisenberg + Bartha = ?), Giallo (is Brody becoming king of the straight to DVD racket?), Oceans (water + Disney = @?), Night of the Demons (No lollipops please)

Other Goodies:

Moulin Rouge! (Blu-Ray): If I really have to explain this to you, I feel bad for you. This movie is every ounce of awesome, and I can imagine blu-ray doing it a great service. Also, Luhrman's Romeo + Juliet comes out on Blu-Ray this week.

Apocalypse Now (Special Edition Blu-Ray): One of those classics that is awesome to the nth degree, makes me kind of wish I was a filmmaker.

Seven Samurai (Criterion Blu-Ray): If any of you are thinking "hmmm, I wonder what I should get Uni for Christmas?" - allow me to give you a big *HINT HINT*.

Psycho (50th Anniversary Blu-Ray Edition): Oh, Norman, that wig looks so lovely on you in high definition!

Alrighty, ladies and gents, have at it!
