Extras:Scene Access Audio Commentary Bonus Trailers Featurettes Music Videos Digital Copy My Thoughts: OK... the end of the saga. AndI must say... I was able to enjoy this one. It is as good as the first one... if not a little better. I liked where the story went. I liked the big battle sequence. This film focuses a little more on the supernatural side of things which is a plus for me. But don't worry those that like the romance side of the movies.... that is here as well. It is a good ending to the saga if you can make your way to it. My Rating: Out of a Possible 5

Artingstall Sam Richardson as John Plot:MELISSA McCARTHY is armed and hilarious in this "outrageously entertaining" (Peter Travers, Rolling Stone) comedy hit from director PAUL FEIG (The Heat, Bridesmaids)! Deskbound CIA analyst Susan Cooper (McCarthy) is about to become the world's newest — and unlikeliest — secret weapon. When her partner (JUDE LAW) falls off the grid and another top agent (JASON STATHAM) is compromised, Susan volunteers to go deep undercover and bring down a deadly arms dealer. Loaded with wisecracking action and adventure, SPY is a mission impossible to resist! Extras:Scene Access Audio Commentary Feature Trailers Deleted Scenes Featurettes Gallery Outtakes/Bloopers Digital Copy My Thoughts: I have been a fan of Melissa McCarthy for a while now so wanted to check out this film. While not great... I found it to be quite enjoyable. It has a few good laughs... but you really have to throw believability out the window. If you can do that there is definitely some fun to be had here. My Rating: Out of a Possible 5

His delirious romp features everything from a wild send-up of the film 2001: A Space Odyssey to the real stories behind the Roman Empire (Brooks portrays a stand-up philosopher at Caesar's Palace), the French Revolution (Brooks reigns as King Louis XVI) and the Spanish Inquisition (a splashy song-and-dance number with monks and swimming nuns). It's Mel and company at their hilarious best. Extras:Scene Access Feature Trailers Bonus Trailers Featurettes Trivia Track My Thoughts: It has been such a very long time since I seen this film. All I remembered was that I enjoyed it when I was a teen. And that remains true today. Lots to laugh at... and a good handful of actors that I haven't seen in ages. This is definitely worth a re-watch... if for no other reason then to remind yourself why "It's good to be the king!" My Rating: Out of a Possible 5

But as the brothers brutally take on Boston's underworld, Smecker finds himself torn between busting the vigilantes...and joining them! Extras:Scene Access Audio Commentary Feature Trailers Bonus Trailers Deleted Scenes Outtakes/Bloopers The Boondock Saints Script, D-Box Motion Code My Thoughts: I must say... I really enjoyed this one. Lots of great action and a really good story to go along with it, Sean Patrick Flannery and Norman Reedus did a wonderful job as the MacManus brothers and Willem Dafoe did a great job as well in a roll much different then I ever seen him in before. And I must say he (as well as all the cast) looked like they had a real blast with this one. This is one film I will be recommending to my friends and family. Now I just need to add part 2 to my collection to go along with this one. Hopefully sooner rather then later! My Rating: Out of a Possible 5

| Posted: | | | | Title: Cat's EyeIMDb | Wikipedia | Trailer | Year: 1985 Director: Lewis Teague Writer: Stephen King (1947) (Screenwriter) Rating: PG-13 Length: 94 Min. Video: Anamorphic Widescreen 2.35:1 Audio: English: Dolby Digital: Dolby Surround, Commentary: Dolby Digital: 2-Channel Stereo Subtitles: English, French, Spanish Stars:Drew Barrymore (1975) as Our Girl James Woods (1947) as Morrison Alan King (1927) as Dr. Donatti Kenneth McMillan as Cressner Robert Hays as Norris Candy Clark as Sally Ann Plot:A wandering supernatural feline's adventures provide the linking story for Stephen King's Cat's Eye, a dead on trilogy scripted by King and directed by Lewis Teague (Cujo, The Jewel of the Nile). First up: the staff at Quitters Inc. promises to help nicotine fiend Dick Morrison (James Woods) kick the habit. If not, someone in Morrison's household might get smoked... because QI is run by a very persuasive mob family. Next comes a cliffhanger. Or a ledgehanger. Either way, a luckless gambler (Robert Hays) is forced into a bet involving a stroll around the building – on the five inch ledge encircling the 30th floor. Finally, our wayfarer kitty rescues a schoolgirl (young Drew Barrymore) from a vile, doll-sized troll. Meowvelous! Extras:Scene Access Audio Commentary Feature Trailers Production Notes Closed Captioned My Thoughts: This is one of the first Anthology movies I ever seen... and one of my favorites. In my opinion a real horror classic! I loved how the cat in the beginning of the movie is shown running past other Stephen King greats... like.. seeing the cat getting scared by Cujo coming out from behind a fence and almost getting run over by Christine. At one point they also show a couple of the characters watching The Dead Zone on TV. This Anthology had 3 stories to it... and in this case I really enjoyed all 3 of them. I definitely recommend this one. My Rating: Out of a Possible 5

After an accident on a winding road, four teens make the fatal mistake of dumping their victim's body into the sea. Exactly one year later, the dead man returns from his watery grave, and he's looking for more than an apology. Extras:Scene Access Audio Commentary Feature Trailers Bonus Trailers Featurettes Music Videos BD-Live Director's Short Film: "Joyride" with Optional Commentary My Thoughts: This one is not what I would call a favorite... but I do enjoy it now and again. Even though this is little more then an entertaining teen slasher... I do enjoy seeing the familiar faces. Just to name a few we have one of my all-time favorites Jennifer Love Hewitt who I absolutely adored in Ghost Whisperer, then there was Sarah Michelle Gellar who was of course Buffy the Vampire Slayer and then there was Johnny Galecki who was in Roseanne and is currently starring in The Big Bang Theory. But as I was saying... over all not a terrible horror. It is entertaining for what it is... but don't go into this one with too high of expectations. My Rating: Out of a Possible 5

But after they move with their mother to peaceful Santa Clara, California, things mysteriously begin to change. Michael's not himself lately. And Mom's not going to like what he's turning into. The Lost Boys reshapes vampire tradition, deftly mixing heart-pounding terror, rib-tickling laughs and a body-gyrating rock soundtrack. Under Joel Schumacher's direction, a marvelous cast – Jason Patric, Jami Gertz, Kiefer Sutherland, Corey Feldman, Corey Haim, Barnard Hughes, Edward Herrmann and Dianne Wiest – stakes you to gleefully ghoulish entertainment. Extras:Scene Access Audio Commentary Feature Trailers Deleted Scenes Featurettes Gallery Interactive Games Multi-angle Music Videos My Thoughts: This is one I actually upgraded from the DVD... as it is one of my favorite vampire films. It is one I have seen countless times...one that I never tire of. This movie is the first thing I ever seen Keifer Sutherland in... and I think he did an awesome job in it. I also think Jason Patric did a great job as Michael. and I definitely couldn't help but to enjoy the Old Fart (Grandpa)... I just get such a kick out of him and all the stuffed animals he gave to Sam. Definitely one I would highly recommend to any horror fan... especially vampire fans. Though I do believe most all horror fans probably seen this one by now! My Rating: Out of a Possible 5

Extras:Scene Access Audio Commentary Feature Trailers Bonus Trailers Featurettes Closed Captioned My Thoughts: It has been quite a while since I seen this one... but been wanting to every since upgrading to the blu-ray a couple months ago. Being a Tim Burton film it is definitely a little on the different side... but in a good way. I think Johnny Depp did a fantastic job in the title role... really so did the entire cast. Which has many familiar faces. In my opinion this one must be seen at least once. So definitely recommended. My Rating: Out of a Possible 5

Extras:Scene Access Audio Commentary Bonus Trailers Featurettes 3 bonus Justice League episodes My Thoughts: This is a good movie... I definitely enjoyed it. But much like the first time I watched it I just couldn't get over the whole Wonder Woman being able to fly thing. I understand that she could in the comics during the era this movie is supposed to take place in... so they wanted to be true to those comics. But I never read those comics... and I only knew the use of the Invisible Plane for her to get around in. I did like that this (like many of the new superhero toon movies) was not afraid to show a little blood. And I liked a lot of the cast choices. I definitely enjoyed watching this one again.

Extras:Scene Access Audio Commentary Bonus Trailers Featurettes Digital Copy 4 Vintage Cartoons, Sneak Peak at "Son of Batman" My Thoughts: First I must say this animated movie is off the new DC 52 comics so some things are different. Most notibly some of the costumes. Superman's costume I have already gotten used to from the Man of Steel film. But it took quite a bit to get used to the way they did Wonder Woman's costume. And I still prefer the classic costume over this one. And it was also a bit strange seeing her fighting with a sword through-out the whole film. They also made some changes to the look of Cyborg. I missed Flash being the over-confident smart-mouth of the bunch. But at least they still had this fun aspect to one of the heroes... they just switched it over to Green Lantern. The storyline itself was fantastic! I loved every moment of this film! It is just some of the changes to some of the characters that bugged me a little. But if you are a fan of these animated superhero films this one is a must see! My Rating: Out of a Possible 5

| Posted: | | | | Title: Captain AmericaWikipedia | IMDb | Trailer | Year: 1979 Director: Rod Holcomb Writer: Don Ingalls (Screenwriter), Don Ingalls (Story By), Chester Krumholz (Story By) Rating: NR Length: 97 Min. Video: Full Frame 1.33:1 Audio: Subtitles: Stars:Reb Brown as Captain America / Steve Rogers Len Birman as Dr. Simon Mills Heather Menzies as Dr. Wendy Day Robin Mattson as Tina Hayden Joseph Ruskin as Rudy Sandrini Lance LeGault [Lance Le Gault] as Harley Plot:When former Marine Steve Rogers is in an accident, his only hope for recovery is an injection of the FLAG superserum – created years ago by his own father – which enhances each of his senses, as well as gives him great strength and fast reflexes. And to help him bring his attackers to justice, a government agency outfits him with a motorcycle and powerful shield, then turns the newly formed Captain America loose on the nation s enemies. Extras:Bonus Trailers My Thoughts: While I did have a lot of fun watching this movie. I felt it took too long for Steve Rogers to agree to become Captain America... and MUCH too long before we got to see him in the costume. Unfortunately they also modernize the costume as well. In this first movie there is actually two versions of the costume. The first one looked more like something Evel Knievel would wear. The second (at the very end of the movie) was much closer indeed... but still way off from what you see in the comics and animation. Yes this is very cheesy... and a definite sign of the times. Whenever Captain America uses his powers you heard a sound effect to let you know. Very similar to the series of the time... The Six Million Dollar Man and The Bionic Woman. The one thing that was missing is that Captain America never throws his shield at all in this movie. I enjoyed this movie in a nostalgic sort of way. It really brought my back to my childhood. Though I would have liked to have seen more Captain America in it. But I guess that is to be expected for the origin story. My Rating: Out of a Possible 5
