OK, so here we go with the second half of my top ten wishlist of films yet to be released on Blu Ray. I didn’t realise how difficult this was giong to be, when you look at the Blu Ray catalogue, it’s actually pretty good already! Since the death of the HD war studios have [...]

I saw something today that made me think that all this hoo haa surrounding High Definition is a bit of a con. I walked into a store with a friend of mine who was looking for a surround sound kit and there right in front of the entrance was a TV playing ones of those [...]

Check before you buy!
Back in January this year I needed a new DVD player as my old one was on its way out. A friend of mine recommended Denon as a good make and so I read a few reviews and decided on the Denon 1940. The 2 questions were what colour I wanted? and [...]

It would seem that Gore Verbinski will be making Bioshock. A film based on the computer game of the same name. I have to say that I am quite excited by this but I do have to remember that most computer game to film adaptations have never really hit the mark. There have been real [...]

It would seem that the early reviews of the new Star Trek film directed by J J Adams (Cloverfield) are very favourable. I am getting quite excited by this now. I enjoyed the old Star Treks as a kid, Next Generation became a bit boring and Voyager was the only one I really enjoyed, Enterprise [...]

This is the part 1 to my Top10 wishlist of films to be brought out on Blu Ray that aren’t already available (hopefully the Blu Ray gods will read this and make my wishes come true!). I’ll run through the first 5 here, don’t think I’m going to do them in any particular order, just off [...]

It was called TRON, and it looked great, in a 1982 battlezone kind of way. Well it is being remade and it looks like Jeff Bridges and Bruce Boxleitner are going to be [...]

One of the first things to hit you about watching this film, is it’s a film named after a car, that has nothing to do with racing, tuning or even driving cars. It’s a film about an old man, a Korean War veteran, that’s growing apart from his family and feels that the world has [...]

Oops, Friday the 13th again! Two months running, that must be a rare occurance. Having already written of my dislike of the horror genre (that was the Friday the 13th link) I think this time I’ll write about a genre that I like, and that would be sci-fi. Yes, I am a self confessed sci-fi [...]

I just received my Blade Runner Region 1 Five Disc Ultimate Collectors Edition. Phew that was a mouthful. I already have the Region 2 Blade Runner set of the same elongated name. But why do I want 2 sets? Well the packaging on the R1 urinates all over the R2 packaging, even though the R2 [...]
