  • started by MattH.

    For many baby boomers, Walt Disney’s Lady and the Tramp was likely the first Disney animated title seen, and what a wonderful film it is to introduce a child to the wonders of Disney animated storytelling! With an original tale, a tuneful song score and with the focus on a veritable host of man’s best friends, Lady and the Tramp makes for truly enchanting entertainment. » read more

    Malcolm X Blu-ray Review

    Spike Lee's Malcolm X arrives on Blu-ray just in time for its 20th Anniversary in classy hardcover book packaging.  The high definition video and audio for the feature film are top notch.  On-disc extras are identical to the previously released two-disc SD DVD of the film, inclusive of an informative filmmaker commentary, a solid half hour retrospective featurette, a generous sampling of deleted scenes, the film's theatrical trailer, and, best of all, the Oscar nominated feature length documentary from 1972 also entitled Malcolm X. » read more

    Drive Blu-ray Review

    Drive is a stylish, very exciting and extremely violent action film which grabs your attention from the opening shot and never lets go. Driver (Ryan Gosling) is a soft-spoken, nameless Los Angeles loner who is an auto mechanic by day but who moonlights as a getaway driver for criminals at night and occasionally as a stunt driver in the movies. Shannon (Bryan Cranston) is Driver's boss at the garage and finds work for him in movies. Shannon has noticed Driver's exceptional skill and he convinces a local crime boss, Bernie Rose (Albert Brooks), to finance the purchase and operation of a stock car for them to race.     Drive Studio: Sony Year: 2011 Rated: R Program Length: 100 minutes                          Aspect... » read more

      A few words about...Picnic on Blu-ray

        I couldn't be more thrilled that Columbia (in this case) and Fox are sub-licensing product, and this new release of Joshua Logan's Picnic is a cause for celebration.   With a superb cast, and based upon the Pulitzer Price winning play by William Inge, Picnic is a film that bristles with small town Americana, beautifully brought to the screen through the eyes of cinematographer James Wong Howe.   1955, a relatively early year for Eastman's color negative process can be problematic when it comes to preservation and restoration, but » read more

        What is the difference between a $17 and a $150 HDMI cable?

        I have always bought high quality audio and video cables. I just purchased a Toshiba DLP 50inch HDTV and want the picture to look the absolute best it can. I was ready to drop $150 on an HDMI cable but from Monster Cable but thought that was a ridiculous price for it. I am about to stick with the HDMI cable that came with my HDTV DirecTV receiver and save some money. What do you guys think? Is there really a difference in quality between a $17 and $150 cable or is it a complete waste of money? » read more
