Bolt. The Blu-ray was released this past Sunday and now the standard DVD is available. It is a wonderful journey as Bolt learns what the real world actually is and how he can use his real strengths to his advantage, that not having super powers is not a detriment at all. Likewise, Mittens is also on a personal journey, learning that the world does not have to be as tough as she makes it out to be, learning to get over her abandonment issues. Rhino, well, I think he is just along for the ride as he is perfectly happy within his own skin. Isn't that all any of us want? Simply delightful.
Goldfinger (Blu-ray). One of the greatest Bond's ever made makes its debut in high definition. This was the third film of the Connery era and it contains one of the most memorable scenes of any film in the series. I look forward to seeing this in hi-def.
The World is Not Enough (Blu-ray). This Pierce Brosnan outing is not a high-water mark for the series, but is still sort of fun. Not one I will be rushing out to get, but there it is!
Moonraker (Blu-ray). This Roger Moore Bond is not terribly well regarded and seems to have been made as a reaction to the success of Star Wars more than anything. It also features the return of evil henchman, Jaws. He's the only henchman to appear in more than one film in the series.
In Treatment. Gabriel Byrne stars in this five-night-a-week HBO series. I have not seen a single episode, but have heard that it is quite good. It is a series about a therapist with each night of the week focusing on a different patient, including Byrne's therapist.
Motley Crue: Crue Fest 2008. Like the Crue boys? If so, you may want to check this out. It chronicles their big festival tour last year and features other acts such as Trapt, Papa Roach, Sixx AM, and Buckcherry.
