Congratulations, you bitchy Evangelion fanboys, you got your movie. Evangelion 1.0 is probably one of the most faithful movie adaptations you'll ever get (or at least one you'll bitch the least about). It follows the original story, makes no drastic changes, updates the animation while not disturbing the designs, and it even keeps the same shots. This is the perfect… Continue

Introduction
When you think of Spongebob what do you think of? A weird talking block of cheese? A kiddie cartoon on nickelodeon? Or are you like me and think of that obnoxious yellow twerp who's so damned optimistic you want to slap him every time a syllable triumphs from his yellow face?
Well whatever your views on the yellow sponge are, the fact is that he is insanely popular with children and Nickelodeon has whored him out into every form of merchandising available, from Spongebob pill… Continue
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

The hardest thing is finding them and the other classic horror movie display.
The K-Mart I went to, had the horror movie promotion display in the Halloween costume section of the store and not in the Electroni… Continue

I feel weird reviewing a Japanese Blu-ray, but I feel the need to do so with this one. I also feel weird about reviewing what is essentially a concert on DVD with little to no extra content outside of a few piece of bonus material that hasn’t made its way to YouTube yet. Then again, I just feel weird about reviewing a program that you don’t have to watch to appreciate.
I am, of course,… Continue
Let me preference this review by saying that I am a huge animation fan and a bigger fan of adult-oriented animation (what little there is). And by adult, I'm not just aiming along the lines of 9 and Animatrix; I'm talking full-on nudity, cussing, violence, gore, and adult situations. HOWEVER, just because I'm for that kind of animated movie doesn't mean I just want those elements randomly thrown in with… Continue

I know I am way behind on this but I missed Coraline when it came out in theaters and although I've had the DVD for a while I haven't had an opportunity to watch it and see what I've been missing. I remember the book when it first came out and was sitting on the shelves of Barnes and Noble's. It definitely was interesting enough to catch your attention then and is now but it's for a certain audience. I am in love with all of the detail work they managed to do with this film. The amount of time a… Continue

In last couple of years, it seems as though the anime gravy train has come to a screeching halt, destroying several anime distribution companies. First, there was Geneon (formerly Pioneer Entertainment). Then, there was Central Park Media. And now in this press release it seems that ADV Films is through, which is odd considering they just got done picking up prop… Continue

I’m a whore. No not that kind of whore, or a media whore. I mean for pretty much anything spy, espionage, government secret, and/or conspiracy things. Well both I and my dad have a love for those things. Love the James Bond films (need to read the books), think the Jason Bourne… Continue
Back in the 1980’s, Hasbro was the leader in half-hour toy commercials disguised as cartoons. Those commercials were Transformers, GI Joe, and My Little Pony. Argue all you want, the bottom line with these shows was to sell toys. While I find that logic of marquee value a bit shameful, I found GI Joe more tolerable. Sure, it didn’t have the coolest to… Continue

I'm going to try to keep this review short and to the point.
The Spectacular Spider-Man is arguably the best Spider-Man cartoon ever made. Sure, it has it's imperfections and the animation style may be off-putting to some (I like it myself), but it's just so much damn fun and captures the essence of Spider-Man better than anything that's come before it (and that includes a… Continue

Before I begin, I would like to dedicate this entry to Leon. Why? Because he probably gets the idea and concept behind The Powerpuff Girls better than I ever will. I just watched the show because I find it entertaining, but Leon is clearly the biggest fan of the show I’ve ever come across.
If you’re a fan of film like me with limited cash, what to buy on July 21st was a hard decision to reach. The film adaptation of the most revered Graphic Novel of all time or Henry Selick’s new Stop-motion wonder. With the increasing price of Blu-Ray and DVD’s and Special Editions abound, I thought I’d help in reaching the decision that I have made and several of you may have to make.

Two of my most anticipated films of '09 came out this Tuesday on DVD; Watchmen & Coraline. Being the film led consumer that I am, I contributed to the system by buying them. I wonder if they're any different from theater to home viewing? Let's dive into it...
Coraline: Two-Disc Collector's Edition… Continue
WATCHMEN, arguably the greatest Graphic Novel ever written. It changed the face of comics forever; I remember hanging out at my comic shop waiting for when I had enough money to get the book. Of course being a teenager in this day-in-age, I had never heard of Watchmen until the announcement of the movie. So I got really hyped, and I really wanted to read the book. But hey, you don't want to here me talk about what Watchmen did to me, you’re here to read a review.
