Blu-ray Releases – January 4, 2011
Woo! The first Blu-ray releases post of the new year! Actually some good flicks, with the release of Desperado/El Mariachi, which if you haven’t seen either/both of them you really should–action packed, with a bit of humor, great stuff. Dinner for Schmucks is a mixed bag, you either love or hate it. I was in the right frame of mind so I laughed an awful lot, but you really have to be in that mindset. I’m a big horror fan, but The Last Exorcism did not live up to what I had heard about it. Disappointing but oh well. Really a pretty decent week, with something for all genres.
MissingRemote’s Pick of the Week
|
Machete ** The lead villain though, man that was a boring performance! Full disclosure–I’m a HUGE fan of Danny Trejo. Ever since his knife wielding days in Desperado (which also is out on Blu-ray today) the dude just oozes Mexican-tough-guy-who-will-chop-your-head-off. And Machete is no different! Plus having Jessica Alba and Michelle Rodrigues doesn’t hurt the film either. Tons of action, lots of violence, and an underwhelming cameo by Steve Seagal, but this bloodbath of a film was a fun ride the whole way through! |

Another Blade Runner
Another Blade Runner release?!?! Anyone know what they’ve done to this version?
Pretty certain it’s the same
Pretty certain it’s the same as previous release. It’s just the single disc Final Cut version instead of the multi-disc versions that have been out for a while.
Buffy the Vampire Slayer
Buffy the Vampire Slayer Season 8 Motion Comic was also released this week. http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/B003WJRW9I Hopefully Netflix will make it available soon so I can check it out.
