New Release Tuesday

Pixar's newest flick looks pretty good and it has plenty of girl power in it.  Plenty of girl power at my house to pick this one up.  This particular title is in a ton of Black Friday ads next week for $10!

Time for some self disclosure here: I am not sure if I have seen this or not.  I seem to recall a viewing on TV when I was really young but that could have  been another desert movie.  I have always heard this movie is only meant to be seen on the big screen but the one at my house will have to do this time.

I will stress again as I have many times on  this blog. A movie with Ben Stiller  is a big turd.

 The Warner Archive Collection dug up some of my childhood goodness this week.  California Highway Patrolmen Jon Baker and Frank Poncherello return to stop a car chop shop operation.  Hope it still has the cool theme.

Friday Night Videos- The Last Stand

Holy Shirt!

Grudge Match

Sly is going to try comedy and climb in the ring once again in Grudge Match ala "Grumpy Ol' Boxers".  Robert Deniro costars with Sly as two aging boxers plan one final fight against each other.  I think this will be a nice break from all the action films Sly has been doing lately, it's with Warner Brothers, and it has a nice cast. Also stars Kim Basinger and Alan Arkin.  Filming starts early next year in Louisiana.

"Sly, you're gonna kick my ass!"

Silent Night- Christmas Comes Early This Year

This is the remake form the classic 1984 flick Silent Night, Deadly Night.  Comes out on blu ray December 4th.  I got my copy ordered.

Movie Poster Wednesday- Skyfall

New Release Tuesday

Director John Carpenter returned to his low budget movie making ways and created this great sci-fi cult classic.  This stars wrestling great Rowdy Roddy Piper in a great turn as a guy down on his luck as he discovers some sunglasses that let him see what is really going on around him.  This is based on Reaganomics of the late 80s where commercials, ads, and labels had subliminal messages.  Contains what most say is the longest fight scene on film ever.  "I've come here to kick ass and chew bubblegum and I am all out of bubblegum."  Nice job by Scream Factory once again.

Fat Steven Seagal and Stone Cold Steve Austin star in this action thriller that I have been reading good things about.  I read a long time ago this might be going theatrical but I guess fat Steve could not sell it so DTV this is.  Still looking forward to it.

This was director John Carpenter's USC film school film.  It was regarded so well he got some additional funds to add to it and got a theatrical release.  Co-written and stars the late great Dan O'Bannon.  (Alien)
