Rise of the Planet of the Apes Blu-ray coming in December

By Brenden ⋅ October 19, 2011 ⋅ Post a comment

Rupert Wyatt’s reboot of the Planet of the Apes franchise is absolutely brilliant and, hands down, the best adventure film of the blockbuster summer season. And from the look of the announcement from Fox, the Blu-ray edition of the film should be a worthy release, at least in as much as the special features are concerned. There’s a ton of them here, from multiple commentary tracks to deleted scenes and featurettes. Hell, there’s even a doc about Andy Serkis! Rise of the Planet of the Apes will be on store shelves December 13th in the US and Canada and December 7th internationally. …Continued…

Trick 'r Treat Blu-ray Disc Review

By Brenden ⋅ October 27, 2009 ⋅ One comment

This movie came out of nowhere. It hit me up-side the head with a perfect blend of comedy, atmosphere and pure horror that, as far as I can tell, has made it the ultimate Halloween experience committed to film. I predict that very soon, for a lot of people Trick ‘r Treat will be necessary viewing every October 31st, just as A Christmas Story has become a holiday staple every December. …Continued…

By Brenden ⋅ September 27, 2009 ⋅ Post a comment

Um…and by that I mean the box set is missing a bunch of stuff, like Red Dragon and bonus content. …Continued…
