It’s pretty amazing that I’ve never seen Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs before. Commercials for the movie never grabbed me and honestly I hate the music. So watching this movie on Blu-ray is a brand new experience for me. Snow White is the first Disney Disk (that I’ve seen) that uses something called Disney […]

Blu-Ray Review: The Wizard of Oz 70th Anniversary Edition
The Wizard of Oz finally comes to Blu-ray in a beautiful 3 Disk Emerald and Ultimate Edition packages. I’m not going to waste time reviewing one of the all time great movies and probably the film that I’ve seen the most (over 42 times). It’s the definition of “classic,” and will always hold up to […]
Blu-Ray Review: Superman. Batman: Public Enemies
DC Comics and Warner Brothers really know how to do their Animated movies. A few weeks ago they gave us the excellent Green Lantern: First Flight this month we get Superman/Batman Public Enemies. It’s Superman’s worst fear, Lex Luthor has become President of the United States and he just can’t help himself, he uses an […]
Blu-ray Review: X-Men Origins: Wolverine
Ok, I’m getting a little annoyed with Fox. For some reason they have stopped sending out Blu-rays for review. It’s an alarming, but not surprising trend that studios are cutting critics out; I think this summer is the summer where there have been more Cold Openings than any in recent memory – especially for most […]
BLU-RAY REVIEW: Michelle Looks at DisneyNature’s Earth
Here’s the thing, I’m not a fan of Nature. Sure I can appreciate the beauty and splendor of it, but after a few minutes I get bored and quickly annoyed when bugs eat me, I fell asleep during a 3-hour tour of the Grand Canyon. DisneyNature’s Blu-ray release of their movie Earth in 1080p high-definition, […]
BLU-RAY REVIEW: Adventureland Review
When I was at the University of Wisconsin, I was offered a summer job to work at Six Flags Great America in Chicago. It only paid $7 an hour and I had no place to live but it would have been a pretty neat experience. I was going to do it, but I let my […]
BLU-RAY REVIEW: Race to Witch Mountain Disappoints
What happened to Dwayne Johnson career? At one point he was on his way to becoming the next big action star, but somewhere along the way Disney got hold of him and he’s been playing the same character and making the same movie for the last four years. I like The Rock and kind of […]
BLU-RAY REVIEW: Hannah Montana The Movie
I’m a sucker for the Disney Teeny Bopper movie. I don’t know what it is about Miley Cyrus but she has the mysterious “it” factor that all famous people crave. She can’t act, comes across as fake, at the same time she’s likable and watchable. Unlike her father Billy Ray who makes me want to […]
BLU-RAY NEWS: Away we Go Hits Blu-ray/DVD Sept. 29
One of the more interesting looking movies of the summer, Away We Go is coming to Blu-ray/DVD September 29th. I missed this in the theaters so I’m looking forward to catching it on Blu-ray. From acclaimed Director Sam Mendes (Revolutionary Road) comes this funny, romantic, honest and surprisingly moving film that explores the comedic twists and […]
Blu-Ray News: X-Men Origins: Wolverine hits Blu-ray/DVD September 15
I’m one of the only critics who liked X-Men Origins: Wolverine. I’m not saying I loved it and it didn’t have numerous problems but as a generic action film I thought it was, Ok. Just not one you run out and see in a theater. The movie made over $175 million so just like all […]
BLU-RAY ANNOUNCEMENT: Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen Hits Blu-ray/DVD Oct. 20
After all the lip Michael Bay had against HD-DVD a few years ago, I expect every one of his Blu-ray releases to blow my eye-balls out of their sockets. The first Transformers Blu-ray effort was a beautiful picture but a pretty lame Blu-ray package. So I’m real curious to see what they come up with […]
