Recommended The Show: The Dragon Ball franchise has been on the market for quite some time, though in reality FUNimation has merely milked Z to death. GT has been squeezed to some extent, but the original remained largely untouched until last year when they began releasing seasoned boxed sets. These chunks of Dragon Ball have been quite the treat for fans. I mean, FUNimation went back and ...
Rent It "Sometimes I get carried away with the whole family thing..." The Movie Do you have any Advil? I still have a hangover from Prom Night . So for all intents and purposes, I should hate the 2009 version of The Stepfather , the remake of the small 1987 chiller that fizzled in theaters but become a word-of-mouth hit on home video. This modern take seems to represent all that is awful about ...
DVD Talk Collector Series THE PROGRAM The following was originally written during "Black Dynamite's" limited theatrical release. "Black Dynamite" first came on my radar as an extended, uncensored preview around a year ago. My interest was highly piqued at the sight of what looked to be a well-crafted parody of blaxploitation films. Fast-forward to now and I had nearly forgotten all about this ...
Visually arresting and standing out from the crowd, Soul Eater is a show that needs to be seen. What They Say Maka is a Meister and Soul is her Weapon. As students at the Grim Reaper's Death Weapon Meister Academy, their study habits couldn't be more different. But in battle against the supernatural forces of evil, they're a freakin' lethal team...
Recommended The Show: When it first landed on my doorstep I must admit I didn't really think much of Tears to Tiara . Like so many other anime titles this one originated as a PC ero-game and featured a rather rudimentary fantasy theme. At first the show at first felt a tad on the dry, unoriginal side, but it slowly got better as the episodes went on. Ultimately the first half proved to be a ...
Recommended THE MOVIE: Morgan Freeman spent his youngest years in the small town of Charleston, Mississippi; now he lives there, when he's not working. The population of the town is a mere 2100, and Charleston High School sports an attendance of 415 students--70% black, 30% white. The school didn't integrate until 1970, but the school's parents refused the have an integrated school prom, so ...
This thrilling pot-boiler has its moments, but none of them are particularly smart.
In today’s Remainders: tricks of all sorts. Wisair cuts some cords with their wireless display adapters; Netflix warns the FCC of potential loopholes in the Comcast/NBC merger; the inimitable BrussPup plays with our heads (and ping pong balls); and more. (more…)
Rent It The Movie: Directed by John Badham (of Saturday Night Fever fame), 1994's Drop Zone finds Wesley Snipes playing a U.S. Marshall named Pete Nessip (a role originally intended for none other than the mighty Steven Segal). He's been assigned with escorting an important prisoner named Earl Leedy (Michael Jeter) to a new state of the art prison where he'll be locked away. Because of what ...
Skip It While the usual marriage of elements always make for a great film, in action filmdom you can get a passing grade so long as you deliver one crucial element. Logic can be thrown out the window. Settings don't have to be stellar. Characters can be cardboard and the accompanying acting stiff. Plots can be threadbare. You just need that one hinge: action delivered at a decent, thrilling, and ...
