Mastodon Comes Back With A Great Concept Album
on April 7, 2017
Posted by: WWETombstone619
from San Diego, CA
Verified Purchase:Yes
Mastodon can always be counted on to produce a solid album, and this is no different. Concept albums that tell stories are definitely their strong suite, and Emperor Of Sand takes you on a journey of a desperate man through the harsh sands of the desert trying anything to reach out to someone to save him. It has its bleak moments, which doesn't come as a surprise since cancer was a driving inspiration for this record. Just like all their previous albums, this one takes a couple of listens to really appreciate the musical and lyrical journey that they take you on. Mastodon is one of the best active bands out there and it's always a treat to hear new music from them.

A Much More Cerebral Film Than The First GITS Film
on April 7, 2017
Posted by: WWETombstone619
from San Diego, CA
Verified Purchase:Yes
Ghost In The Shell 2: Innocence is a great example of how to make a solid sequel while taking the series into a more philosophical direction. GITS 2 is a much more introspective film that the first one and it deals with such topics as what differentiates a human from a machine once A.I. and technology advance enough to have human-like machines. And what is a soul? You have to pay attention to this film to see all that it has to offer. If you're looking for a film just like the first GITS, this is not it. It has its moments of great action sequences, but it delves a lot more into the cerebral side of the GITS series.

One Great, And One Decent, Obscure Disney Films
on September 10, 2016
Posted by: WWETombstone619
from San Diego, CA
Verified Purchase:Yes
As a child I used to watch The Rescuers Down Under countless times. I never knew that it was a sequel to a film that had come out over 20 years before it, all I cared about was that it was entertaining, and the giant eagle free-flight sequence is still one of the best pieces of animation in the world. So with that being said, I have seen the original Rescuers film, and while it was... an animated film... it can't hold a candle to it's sequel, which is what I bought this for. But hey, you can't complain about getting two Disney films for the price of one on blu-ray. Do either of the Rescuers movies have that compelling of stories? No. But the Rescuers Down Under is worth a watch for the animation alone.

The King Of Quirky Comedy Tackles Childrens Movies
on September 10, 2016
Posted by: WWETombstone619
from San Diego, CA
Verified Purchase:Yes
Wes Anderson, the strange man that he is, always makes great quirky films that are a joy to watch, and Fantastic Mr. Fox is no exception. I love the fact that he wanted to tackle not only a lighter fair in a children's film, but also tackle the animation art form known as stop motion. If you love Wes Anderson films, then you'll love this plain and simple.

All Fans Of Animation Need To Watch This Film
on September 10, 2016
Posted by: WWETombstone619
from San Diego, CA
Verified Purchase:Yes
I will be the first to admit that I love animation, but I'm not a huge fan of Studio Ghibli works. To me a lot of them feel too similar for me to enjoy them as much as everyone else. And while I do love some of their other works such as Spirited Away and Howl's Moving Castle, Princess Mononoke will always be my favorite. It goes for a much darker tone, thus singling it out from the typically light-hearted films of Ghibli (Grave Of The Fireflies excluded) and has a story that I found myself to be much more invested in. Regardless of if you like Studio Ghibli or not, or if you like anime or not, this is a must-see film if you are a fan of animation period. It has beautiful animation, creative character and creature designs, and has a compelling story to boot.

One Of The More Creative Stoner Comedies
on September 10, 2016
Posted by: WWETombstone619
from San Diego, CA
Verified Purchase:Yes
Let's be honest. Most stoner films are made for stoners and tend to be a bit of a niche comedy genre, and as such it's hard for non-stoners to enjoy them. But Dude Where's My Car? is one of those exceptions that pushes past a lot of the stereotypes of stoner comedies to become much more than just a "stoner comedy". It has plenty of jokes that I still reference to this day, over 15 years after it came out, and has some of the most creative and zany setups and jokes that I've ever seen in a comedy.

A Well Done Sci-Fi Take On A Literary Classic
on September 10, 2016
Posted by: WWETombstone619
from San Diego, CA
Verified Purchase:Yes
I'm not typically a fan of re-imaginings when it comes to films. Instead of making a sci-fi version of a pre-existing story, why not make your own original one? But there's something about Treasure Planet that just works. Everything from the animation to the re-working of characters, this is a worthy version of the classic "Treasure Island" tale.

This Is How Avatar Should Be Seen
on September 10, 2016
Posted by: WWETombstone619
from San Diego, CA
Verified Purchase:Yes
Avatar as a film has never been heralded for its story, but its visuals. And this blu-ray release is the perfect way to see the film in all of its visual glory. The special effects still hold up better than movies that are made nowadays, and the extended cut adds some much needed backstory that actually helps the plot and gives the viewer more of a reason to sympathize with the main character. If anything, this is a great way to show off what a blu-ray can really deliver in terms of clear visuals and sound. Overall it takes what was always a pretty movie and adds a bit more depth to it.

![The Mighty Ducks Box Set [3 Discs] [DVD]](https://pisces.bbystatic.com/image2/BestBuy_US/images/products/4747/4747135_sa.jpg)
Emilio Estevez's three appearances in the family-friendly comedy-drama Mighty Ducks franchise are collected on this DVD box set. The Mighty Ducks, D2: The Mighty Ducks, and D3: The Mighty Ducks have all been transferred to DVD in 1.85:1 letterboxed format. All three films also feature the original English language soundtrack in Dolby Digital 5.1, while the first film also features supplementary French and Spanish language tracks in Dolby Surround. All three films are closed captioned in English, though none of them have subtitle options, and none feature bonus supplementary materials.

Ducks! Ducks! Ducks! Ducks! Ducks!
on September 10, 2016
Posted by: WWETombstone619
from San Diego, CA
Verified Purchase:Yes
One of the best sports movie series is finally collected into one box set. I still remember watching the first Mighty Ducks movie over and over again as a kid, and getting the opportunity to re-watch it along with its two, not as good but still solid, sequels is great. I'd love to see this released on blu-ray with cleaned up picture and sound. Make it happen Disney! You have more than enough money to do so.

Nicely Done Concept With A Cheesy Plot
on September 6, 2016
Posted by: WWETombstone619
from San Diego, CA
Verified Purchase:Yes
As long as you know that this movie is more style over substance, then you'll probably enjoy it more. When I watched it, I wasn't expecting a riveting story, which allowed the few twists that are in the loose story to make a bit more of an impact. But if you're interested in seeing this, it's definitely not for the story. The gimmick of having a first-person view hard R action flick is a novel one, but because the filmmakers approached it as seriously as they did, what might've turned out to be a really cheesy sci-fi action flick succeeded in going past solely relying on its gimmick to becoming a quite enjoyable albeit cheesy action flick. The action sequences are really well done, and because it was filmed in and around Russia, the safety laws of what stunt men could and couldn't do were a bit laxed which allowed the filmmakers to make the stunts look even more dangerous, because they were. Hardcore Henry does what it sets out to do pretty well, and it's well worth a watch or two because I promise that you won't be able to catch everything that they did the first time through. I'd love to see what they could do with a sequel and a slightly tighter written plot. Any action movie fan should give this a look.
