The Alien legacy is more vivid than ever before in this six-disc Blu-Ray collection featuring Alien, Aliens, Alien 3, and Alien: Resurrection as you've never seen them before. In addition to offering the theatrical versions of each film, the "Director's Cut" of Alien, and the "Special Edition" versions of each of the other films are also included.
As a fan of the first three films in this series (yes, even Alien3) you cannot ask for much more than the exhausting and comprehensive set that is delivered here. Detailed and done right, this set gives you everything and more that you could want from the Alien series.
As a fan of the original Predator and it's sequel Predator 2, I had high hopes for Predators. Thankfully, most of my expectations were met. Although it's a little derivative of the original film from 1987, Predators still brings enough fun to the table to keep it interesting. You can tell that the fiilmmakers actually cared about the franchise (unlike the two AvP films).
Although he made his debut with the enjoyable CAN I BORROW A DOLLAR?, it was his sophomore effort, RESURRECTION, that put Common Sense on the proverbial map. A thoughtful and introspective album, anchored by stellar production by NO ID and Y-NOT, RESURRECTION still holds up as a fantastic Hiphop record from the end of the Golden Age.
One look at this DVD, and viewers won't believe it's all animation. One of the most detailed DVDs out today, this is bound to go down as a classic both in animation and children's features. Dinosaur, released by Walt Disney Pictures, is the charming story of a dinosaur mistakenly raised by lemurs. The special effects of the meteor hitting the earth are so realistic, you'll find it hard to believe that this is an animated movie. Because the movie was released digitally, the DVD is created straight from the digital source, and it shows in the sound and quality. The sound is Dolby 5.1 (other options are THX-certified and DTS 5.1) with French and English tracks. It's available for viewing in both standard and 1:85:1 widescreen versions. Along with the awesome visuals and sound, there are plenty of features to occupy viewers long after the movie is over. Highlights include background on how the special effects were created, a documentary on the sound design, a feature on "building a better dinosaur," and several games, including "Dinosearch" and "Aladar's Adventure." Also included are web links and a dinosaur encyclopedia. Disney went all out with this DVD, and it shows.
