Great value.

I got these batteries for a trip to DC to use in my new camera. The batteries did well--the pack lasted for 3 days of pretty heavy picture taking. Shortly thereafter I invested in rechargeable batteries, though.

Supernatural and thought-provoking
on August 22, 2015

This is one of King's more supernatural stories. No truly great actors but the storyline is good and the idea is carried out nicely. It makes you think about what you would do if given the chance to bring someone back from the dead.

Those mischievous green terrors are back for seconds in Gremlins 2: The New Batch. Warner has done a very presentable job at making sure this 1.85:1 anamorphic widescreen print looks very crisp and clean. Aside of just a smidgen of edge enhancement, this picture appears to boast sharp, detailed colors and well defined black levels. The soundtrack is presented in a newly remastered Dolby Digital 5.1 Surround mix in English, along with a Dolby 2.0 Surround track in English, French and Spanish. The 5.1 mix does a fine job of making sure the soundtrack is crystal clear, though directional effects are rather slim and spotty. All aspects of the soundtrack are free of any hiss or distortion. Also included on this disc are English, French and Spanish subtitles. Warner has gone the extra mile to throw a few extra features on this disc, starting with a commentary track by director Joe Dante and producer Mike Finnell. This is mildly funny track that features multiple stories about the cast, effects and difficulties working with little green puppets. A gag reel of funny flubs is included, as well as an entertaining behind-the-scenes featurette which is a parody of other boring featurettes found on most discs. An ample amount of deleted footage running over 20 minutes is included with optional commentary and allows viewers to see what ended up on the cutting room floor. Finally there is a goofy game called "The Gremlins Files," a theatrical trailer for the film, and a list of the cast and crew members.

Great sequel

Gremlins creeped me out as a kid and although it's tough to follow up to such a great movie, Gremlins 2 does it nicely. Slightly more comical and campy, but still very entertaining.

Rob Reiner's effective adaptation of Stephen King's Misery comes to DVD with two different images. The widescreen transfer preserves the original theatrical aspect ratio of 1.85:1 and is preferable to the standard full-frame 1.33:1 image. The closed-captioned English soundtrack is rendered in Dolby Digital Surround. Spanish and French subtitles are also available. Supplemental features include a collectible booklet, the original theatrical trailer, and a teaser trailer. Though the film is short on extras, Kathy Bates' Academy Award-winning performance makes this a disc worth watching.

Genuine goosebumps

The best of genuine horror. No fancy effects, no gory scenes, no cheap "make you jump" moments. The acting is superb and it makes your skin crawl because it's 100% plausible.

I was standing in the end zone for this concert and it was legendary. The interview bits on the DVD are nice--they provide you with a behind the scenes look at the venue and setup. Go Dawgs!!!!!

Impulse buy--well worth the money

I was looking for a simple point-and-shoot for a trip to DC. This one was on clearance and I took a chance. This camera is very easy to use and the zoom is magnificent. It captures motion very well. I recommend investing in rechargeable batteries, though.

Few chuckles but nothing special

I have heard that this movie is for a particular crowd and I'm not it. It will get a couple of genuine chuckles but after one viewing it never found its way back into my DVD player.

Not a fan

This movie seems to play on the idea that "this is so crazy that it just might work." And it fails, in my opinion. I watched it twice and both times it just failed to keep my interest. Slow paced and nothing spectacular with the story telling.

This release combines the previous separately released two parts of the animated adaptation of The Dark Knight Returns, and includes a documentary that focuses on Frank Miller's work creating the original influential graphic novel.

Edgy and true to the comic

If you like the graphic novel--give this a try. It stays true to the story and is edgy enough to appeal to the older ages. Well done.

This release includes all eight episodes from the final season of the high-octane animated series Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, following the titular pizza-loving heroes as they go toe-to-toe with all new villains like the Evil Lord Dregg and the dreaded Hi-Tech.

Bland

I bought this because my daughter loves TMNT. But the episodes are bland and repetitive. It's like they ran out of ideas without Shredder in the picture.
