What do you think of this "THE BATMAN" series? I haven't read too many positives about it so far. Ugh. :evil: While the Dini/Timm series respected the character, eschewing silly Schumacher gimmicks in lieu of genuine detective work (something that has yet to manifest itself in any of the ...

I'm a rabid fan of all the Paul Dini/Bruce Timm animated superhero shows, from Batman: TAS to Superman (neck-and-neck with the original Richard Donner film as the "definitive" interpretation of the character) to Batman Beyond (sounded like a terrible idea at first, but surprisingly inventi...

The Lost World is Jaws compared to the howling ineptitude of JP3 . I had to laugh during the scene where William H. Macy tries to get correct change for the snack machine(!), because A.) there's no freaking power to run it , and B.) who wants to eat food that's been rotting in a vending machine on ...

Sadly, the extra features discs from the original (and wildly overpriced) DVD sets have not been retained on these new slimline case reissues. :( Still, the episode comentaries, deleted scenes and occasional special effects clips are still there, and the documentaries that were included on the origi...

The only thing about this film that doesn't look horrible (or, as Steve Martin would say, "Ooorible!") is Beyonce Knowles. :P

I'm also encouraged by the hand-drawn Curious George movie. Not really the kind of animated movie I'd personally go to see, but it's nice to see "old-school" animation techniques still clinging to life (and how cool that this year's batch of Oscar-nominated animated features have not one C...

Yeah, the abscence of Hopkins meant that Legend lacked the emotional gravitas of Mask (I'd heard a rumor once that Hopkins was going to film material for some flashback scenes, but apparently that idea was dropped), and some of the humor smacked of Spy Kids silliness (the horse in particular), but o...
