New Release Tuesdays

 There has been some good things come out the last couple of weeks worth picking up.  Let's take a gander:

Batman: Soul of the Dragon- In the 1970s, a missing teacher of martial arts is the subject of a quest by his devoted and brilliant but distant students, who include Batman. This movie is great, the best WB animated in awhile.  This is a James Bond/Bruce Lee movie that also happens to have Batman in it as well.  It takes place in the 70s so the style and the music in this is really good. 

Fatman- A rowdy, unorthodox Santa Claus is fighting to save his declining business. Meanwhile, Billy, a neglected and precocious 12 year old, hires a hit man to kill Santa after receiving a lump of coal in his stocking.  I rented this during Christmas and enjoyed it a lot.  I do not care who or what Mel Gibson is about because Hollywood stars live in a different world then me so it does not matter.  Sit back and enjoy this, he is really good in it.  Bring on Lethal Weapon 5!

AGFA Horror Trailer Show- I miss the Alamo Drafthouse.  It is still temporarily closed here but the longer it stays closed it may remain that way but I hope it comes back.  This is a compilation disc with trailers that play before the movie starts at The Alamo.  I picked this up to support the cause.

Let Him Go- A retired sheriff and his wife, grieving over the death of their son, set out to find their only grandson. I still like Costner's movies and I am glad Yellowstone is so popular to give him a bit of a comeback.  These two were great in Man of Steel so it will be good to see them in something else together.

Shin Godzilla- Japan is plunged into chaos upon the appearance of a giant monster. Japan has been getting dumped on by all these monsters over the years.  Glad they keep rebuilding.

The Great Alligator- Tourists on a tropical island anger an island god, who turns himself into a giant alligator and stalks them.  Alligator movies were the craze in the late 70s and I have not seen this Italian version before.

Foo Fighters: Medicine at Midnight- My favorite band has a new album out today so they get included today too.
