‘Gone Baby Gone’ comes to us from the author of ‘Mystic River’ and directed by Ben Affleck. It is the story of a missing 4-year-old girl from Boston, and a couple who serve as private investigators that will ultimately risk everything to find her. Incredible performances by Casey Affleck (’Last Kiss’), Morgan Freeman(’Shawshank Redemption’), Ed [...]

UPDATE: New Line will announce on Monday the specs for the standard and Blu-ray release of the Golden Compass, a 2 disc set should be expected. Let’s hope we get that Director’s Cut we know has to exist and we don’t have to wait for an eventual double dip.
At this point it [...]
Across the Isle: Another look at Cloverfield- SPOILERS

Since seeing the teaser trailer before Transformers this past summer, I have been looking forward to the then untitled JJ Abrams (Alias, Lost, Mission Impossible 3, Felicity, Armageddon, Joy Ride) produced ‘Cloverfield.’ Unlike Pat, I had high expectations and they were all pretty much met, much like ‘The Mist’. I avoided as many spoilers [...]
Heath Ledger Found Dead in NY Apt.

Shocker of the day, and quite sad. Heath Ledger was found dead earlier this afternoon in his New York apartment. Pending an investigation, early reports are of a drug overdose. Ledger leaves behind a daughter. Much like Brad Renfro last week, a youg talented actor leaves us way too early. This puts a damper [...]

I went into the theater with neutral expectations. Of course I wanted the movie to be good and originally I was super-pumped for it after seeing the trailer. But I started to worry, mainly about the “monster”. Was it Godzilla? Would there be some weird twist? These questions started to make me doubt the movie [...]

This article is so good (and I’m format neutral) I had to repost it from DarkHorizons.com
“The Pittsburgh Post-Gazette has published a startling story today that claims that not only did money change hands in regards to the Warner/Blu-ray deal, but that 20th Century Fox was also paid off to stay with Blu.
According to the report, [...]
Pirates of the Carribean at Worlds End

I made the mistake of playing this game after finishing Uncharted on PS3.
The good: Cinematics and voice work capture the movies perfectly. The mannerisms and movement of the characters are spot on. Visually the world is beautiful, very well done. You really feel part of the Pirates world. Unfortunately these pros aren’t enough to make [...]

So in the next few days you will be seeing trailers for the new Batman movie, I would post a link, but Warner Brothers has been yanking them as soon as they show up. Next to Indiana Jones this my my most anticipated movie of the summer. Who would have thought that Heath Ledger would [...]
Spider-man Trilogy on Blu-Ray

Greetings!
I had the chance to sit down and check out the Spider-man Trilogy on Blu-Ray.
Spider-man 1: Unfortunately for a big studio release, of a movie that was high profile and not that old, this transfer is kinda weak. Oddly enough it was filmed in a different aspect ratio than 2 and 3, which is kinda [...]
