DVD Review: Mystery Science Theater 3000 : Volume XIV
I have always watched bad movies. They are just one of those odd joys that will always exist as long as there are movies. Some are cheaply made, some are poorly written, and some just come together to be crap. But throw in a good riffing throughout and you have an even greater joy, Mystery Science Theater 3000. I grew up watching MST3k, and loved every episode. These guys, either Joel or Mike and their robot friends Crow and Tom Servo would sit through the world’s worst movies and make fun of them. This was a weekly joy for me, and my friends. It was absolutely great.
DVD Review: Top Secret! (1984)
Paramount brings you another classic movie in their “I Love the 80’s” on DVD series.
Val Kilmer has had a few ups and down over his 25 year acting career. He has turned in some amazing performances such as Jim Morrison in “The Doors”, and Doc Holiday in “Tombstone”. He’s also starred in some major crapfests (I’m looking at you “Mindhunters”!). Before all of this, he kicked off his Hollywood career with a pair of brilliant comedies, the most well known of the two being “Real Genius”. The other being the 1984 WWII spy flick spoof Top Secret!.

Blu-ray Review: Stargate Ark of Truth
For ten amazing years viewers had the privilege of watching the adventures of the military team known as SG-1 travel through the Stargate and travel to new worlds. Then, during the filming of their 200th episode, the staff was notified that the show would not be returning for an 11th year. That would have been good to have known earlier because the team on the show had introduce a new villain called the Ori who were more powerful than any other villain Earth had faced. In order to finish the story and continue the adventures of SG-1 MGM and Fox did the only thing they could: Make a movie! Stargate: The Ark of Truth was released last year as a Direct to DVD feature length film and has finally made its way to Blu-ray!

Lighting strikes twice with the new dual disc DVD and Blu-ray releases of Hulk Vs. Marvel is kind enough to give us not one, but two different battles featuring the Hulk Vs Wolverine and the Hulk Vs Thor!
