Sly on the Set of Creed

Sly is on the streets of Philly filming the Rocky spinoff Creed.  The film is scheduled to be released on November 25, 2015.

New Release Tuesday


A special bond develops between plus-sized inflatable robot Baymax, and prodigy Hiro Hamada, who team up with a group of friends to form a band of high-tech heroes.  This is a Disney, Pixar, Marvel mash up from the mind of Stan Lee and is a great animated flick.  I got lucky and scored the steel book at Target.


A promising young drummer enrolls at a cut-throat music conservatory where his dreams of greatness are mentored by an instructor who will stop at nothing to realize a student's potential.  A good looking drama and JK Simmons took home the gold for his portrayal of the instructor.


This was such a good show and I believe it ran just the right amount of time and had a very fitting end.  I look forward to sitting down in the future and reexamining this motor cycle gang drama.


A secret fling between a man and his mistress leads to blackmail and murder.  This is a great crime thriller from the late greats John Frankenheimer and Elmore Leonard.  Check it out.


During a New Year's Eve celebration, a Punk Rock & New Wave show host gets a phone call saying that when New Year's strikes in each time zone, someone will be murdered--and she will be the last one.  I watched this horror movie for the first time a couple of weeks ago.  Not bad, not great but I bet Scream Factory does a great job with it.  “Call me Eee-vil”.


Looks like Lionsgate is re-releasing some classic action movies with some new artwork.  Yep, probably gonna have to pick up First Blood.  Again.


I am not a big OU fan but I liked this guy and his not putting up with with anyone attitude.  He was a great college football player and has fancied himself a bit of a movie career.  Check out Cold Stone from 1991, good action flick.

New Release Tuesday

A washed up actor, who once played an iconic superhero, battles his ego and attempts to recover his family, his career and himself in the days leading up to the opening of a Broadway play.  This seems like the perfect role for Michael Keaton and I plan on watching before the big awards show this weekend.  This blu ray comes in a cool red case.

Yeah, I know this is the best show on TV I am still not watching.  I will get around to watching boobs and Dragons one of these days.  

I really liked the original and this just looks dumb enough to not pass up.  It is also impressive that they got this off the ground after twenty years.

Three women who have been driven mad by pioneer life are to be transported across the country by covered wagon by the pious, independent-minded Mary Bee Cuddy, who in turn employs low-life drifter George Briggs to assist her.  This is a must watch as it is a Western and it was directed by, stars, and co-written by the great Tommy Lee Jones.

I do not know who would have thought this was a good idea but I certainly agree that Sony probably got everything they deserved by making and releasing this trash.  

A nice looking drama about the relationship between the famous physicist Stephen Hawking and his wife Jane.

I hated the show so if this is about sharks coming to eat the cast of 90210 I am on board.
