Lots of releases this week, just not a lot of them are new I’m afraid. I actually had trouble coming up with some sub-recommendations, which is why the I’m-sure-it’s-awful Beverly Hills Chihuahua 2 is on there. So let it be known, that is NOT a recommendation! MissingRemote’s Pick of the Week Let Me In Based off a best selling book […]

Obviously you can’t fully judge these leaked FCC images, but man…it’s remotes like this that A) Make me understand how Apple products are so good, and B) Makes me appreciate my Harmony remote.

In this case, one of the most popular movie management plugins for Windows 7 Media Center, MyMovies, is teasing about their next release including the oft-requested TV episode support!

Read moreSome decent Blu-rays out this week, nothing earth shattering but we’ve seen worse weeks. I swear I enjoyed the original Saw, but they are really running out of steam and I’m happy to hear this is the last chapter of the series, which feels like they’ve had a new one every 9 months for the last 8 years. I haven’t […]
