Santana continues his trend of collaborating with guest artists, this time with Latin rock and pop artists. Yet this album sounds more like the Latin rock and pop of the guest artists rather than traditional Santana that some rock fans may expect. Highlights are the songs with Juanes, Los Fabulosos Cadillacs and Ziggy Marley. The rest of the songs are alright but not stellar.
This comedy collection includes the classic disaster-film spoofs Airplane and Airplane II. The films follow a nervous pilot and a beautiful but eccentric stewardess as they try to save their passengers from a gruesome fate.
If you liked Hunter Hayes debut (or the Encore version), you'll love this second album. County pop, but a little more pop and uptempo than the first one.
Stanley Kubrick's adaptation of Stephen King's The Shining comes to DVD with a standard full-frame transfer that, while not widescreen, does in fact mirror the director's original intentions for the film (he reportedly shot it so that the frame could be cropped without compromising the integrity of the image). English and French soundtracks are rendered in Dolby Digital 5.1. English, Spanish, and French subtitles are accessible. Supplemental materials include a making-of documentary and a theatrical trailer.
Stanley Kubrick's adaptation of Stephen King's book scarred me as a kid. Now as an adult I admire the master craft of one of my favorite filmmakers. I will assume you are already familiar with this film and focus my review on the DVD features.
Great restored picture and sound. Includes a 35-minute "Making of The Shining" feature. Film is presented in full aspect ratio as Stanley Kubrick intended, according to the packaging. My DVD of "Eyes Wide Shut" is also presented this way, but I've seen a widescreen version available, so I'm left wondering how accurate this statement is.
Memorex CD-R offers 80 minutes of audio recording time or 700 MB of data storage, available in 52x write speed compatible and can only be recorded on a Computer CD Writer.
These CD-Rs are dependable and inexpensive. My computer/burner has problems with some brands, and some of my players have problems with others. Memorex color CDs, for example, skip too much in my car CD player. But these always burn and play fine for me.
