Blu-ray Review: Never Say Never Again
"I need a urine sample. If you could fill this beaker for me?"
"From here?"
Back in the early 1980s someone made a bold move. Was there was a loophole in the movie rights for Bond films? It turned out that there was in fact a series of events that would allow a company other than Eon to create a film based on James Bond, but that's the thing: Just because you can, should you? Dare you? In 1983 Kevin McClory's Never Say Never Again remake of the Eon Bond film Thunderball went head to head against Eon's latest Bond film: Octopussy. In the end, Roger Moore's Bond won out in ticket sales and rentals, but it proved that there was indeed room for both to be blockbusters.

DVD Review: Lilo & Stitch 2-Disc Big Wave Edition
"Ohana means family, family means nobody gets left behind. Or forgotten." -Lilo
Aliens. Elvis. Kids. Family. Hawaii. Surfing. If you're a fan of any of these things, you will likely love Lilo & Stitch Which is now re-released in its blue-in-color but sadly standard definition only "2-Disc Big Wave Edition".
It seems that there's no Blu-ray announced as on the way, so it's likely safe to pick up this edition if you don't already have Lilo & Stitch on DVD on your shelf.
Blu-ray Review: Bolt
How do you know it's time to finally break time and make the switch to Blu-ray? When Disney's latest offering is released on Blu-ray before it's available on DVD*. It's like Disney's knocking on your thick skull and saying "Hello, are you in there? This is the future of technology calling. Nineteen ninety-six called and it wants it's DVDs back. You really need to give it up and just start watching movies and TV in HD with the rest of the world. Hello? Can you say 1080p and English 5.1 DTS-HD Master Audio?" But being as though this is Disney we're talking about, they're nicer than that and *they even include the DVD version along with the 3-disc Blu-ray edition cause they know that life, like technology upgrades, is not always so simple.
Blu-Ray Review: Pinocchio 70th Anniversary Edition
When You Wish Upon a Star
Walt Disney's 2nd animated feature-length film debuted 70 years ago, but only now do we have the technology to appreciate it better than it's ever been seen before. With Blu-ray, now we can watch it at home in the highest resolution to date, 1080p, and listen to its classic songs in DTS-HD Master Audio 7.1 sound, which is likewise better than ever before. Like Bolt, which also was just released on DVD and Blu-ray, when you purchase the Pinocchio 70th Anniversary Edition on Blu-ray, you also get it on DVD. So for those of you who don't want to buy it twice or maybe you want the DVD to put in the minivan for trips with the kids, now your wish has come true.
