For those who really was love Farscape (and I don't why anybody wouldn't), Best Buy has the complete series (which was just released this week) for $70! Their regular price is $130, their sale price says $100, but their online price says $70. I we...

Xavier is a very hard character to explain (at least physically). In short, he is a mystic, hairy, six-nippled, blonde, beaked freak with a snake for an arm and knees that bend in the opposite direction. Much like David Carradine in Kung-Fu, Xav...

So far, it's not knocking me out of my seat. The special effects are great, but the characters aren't winning me over especially with some poor acting. The promos look better than these first eight minutes. And what is up with that ending song? Wh...

I'm still angry at Universal for releasing seasons like this in halves, charging about the same amount as the full seasons. However, despite the prices, the DVDs are real nice and now that they're in Blu-Ray they look gorgeous. I give up, Univer...

‘They’re going to screw this up’. That is how I felt about western adaptations of anime. Heck, I still feel that way with movies like Dragonball Evolution enforcing that point. But then there are movies like Astro Boy which prove that studios ca...

Madness Mark was mind-raped by Xavier: Renegade Angel (and enjoyed it)



Xavier is a very hard character to explain (at least physically). In short, he is a mystic, hairy, six-nippled, blonde, beaked freak with a snake for an arm and knees that bend in the opposite direction. Much like David Carradine in Kung-Fu, Xavier travels the land to impart his spiritual knowledge to others, whether they want his help or not. However, his ramblings usually end up making things worse. And… Continue

Battlestar Galactica Season 4.5 Blu-Ray Review



I'm still angry at Universal for releasing seasons like this in halves, charging about the same amount as the full seasons. However, despite the prices, the DVDs are real nice and now that they're in Blu-Ray they look gorgeous. I give up, Universal! Anyway, Battlestar Galactica Season 4.5 is the final season and while it has it's ups and downs, it's virtually filler free and still keeps me… Continue

Astro Boy review by Madness Mark



‘They’re going to screw this up’. That is how I felt about western adaptations of anime. Heck, I still feel that way with movies like Dragonball Evolution enforcing that point. But then there are movies like Astro Boy which prove that studios can do something meaningful with a license without completely cow-towing to the fans or selling out to make a quick buck.

Astro Boy takes pla… Continue

Nightmare on Elm Street 1-8 Review

Excited for the Elm Street reboot? Even though it's not coming out until April, you can still catch up with the whole series on DVD and what better time to watch them than on Halloween. But with so many entries in the series, one can easily lose track of each one and forget which ones were actually good. So here are some quick reviews of all 8 movies.



The first Nightmare on Elm Street set the right tone. It introduced a bold and classic icon of horror, Freddy Kruger. It was a… Continue

Thanks for your nice comment on my Moon review! I totally agree w/ you about Let the Right One In being an underrated, instant classic.

Wow! Dune and Godfather 2 were looooong!

Yes, most of the anime I listed are by the same director, Makoto Shinkai, but Mamoru Hosoda directed The Girl Who Leapt Through Time. If Voices of a Distant Star and The Place Promised in Our Early Days were too long for you, then you don't have to worry b/c 5 Centimeters per Second is only 63 minutes long and The Girl Who Leapt Through Time is only 93 minutes long.

Heya! Nice 2 hear from you and Sarah. Really loved your blogs on Adult Swim shows and Anime WITHOUT School Girls, Ninjas, or Giant Robots. If you like serious/really good modern anime, you should also check out the following anime movies: 5 Centimeters per Second, The Girl Who Leapt Through Time, The Place Promised in Our Early Days, and Voices of a Distant Star (even though it does have giant robots)

Actually, they are finished with the Harry Potter 6. Alan Horn stated there were no production snags and its "fabulous". I want this film to be the best it can be too, and if this film was delayed for the reasons you brought up, I'd totally understand. But they're only doing it for a box office strategy. They're not changing the film at all.
