DVD Pick of the Week: A Tie - Animaniacs and Pinky and the Brain - Page 2

Part of: DVD Pick of the Week

Also out this week:

  • The 2005 Academy Award Nominated Shorts. This is a wonderful idea. This collects almost all of the nominated shorts, both live action and animated. One of the ones missing is Pixar's One Man Band, presumably rights issues.
  • Awesome, I…. Shot That. Here is another interesting idea: the Beastie Boys gave a number of fans cameras to shoot the show. This is the result.
  • The Benchwarmers. Not a good movie, but I still got a kick out of it. It was weird seeing Rob Schneider, someone I do not care for, being the straight man.
  • The Boondocks: The Complete First Season. I have heard good things about this socially satirical animated show.
  • Final Destination 3. I liked the first two, but this one fell flat. On the plus side, the extras look to be pretty good.
  • Halloween 4: The Return of Michael Myers. Getting the Anchor Bay Divimax treatment is this horror sequel.
  • Halloween 5: The Revenge of Michael Myers. Same deal as above.
  • Halloween: 25 Years of Terror. This is a feature length documentary on the history of the killer in the Kirk mask.

What are you getting this week?

    You missed the notable fact that Pinky (done by Maurice LaMarche) is voiced in a fabulous Orson Wellesian imitation....

    I have been waiting for these DVD's for the longest time. I had wondered why it was taking them so long to get them out, but then I realized they were waiting for all of the kids who originally watched the show to grow up, move out, and get their own credit cards.

    Brisco County Jr. and Pinky and The Brain? What an excellent couple of weeks! The nominated shorts DVD is a great idea. I never get to see short films, and it just makes sense that the people who'd want to see one are the market who'd be interested in all of them.
