DVD Pick of the Week: Taken - Page 2

Part of: DVD Pick of the Week

Star Trek: The Original Motion Picture Collection (Blu-ray). Just in time to catch up with the new movie comes this high definition box set featuring the first six films of the series. It is all the films featuring all of the original cast. If it is done right, this could be a great set.

The Good, the Bad, and the Ugly (Blu-ray). The classic Sergio Leone/Clint Eastwood spaghetti western is arriving on high definition. How can you go wrong? This is a great film that everyone needs to see at least once. That reminds me, I need to see it again.

Seth MacFarlane's Cavalcade of Cartoon Comedy (also Blu-ray). Do we really need this? Probably not, but I bet it is still pretty funny. It is a collection of animated skits that, from the bits I saw, are just like the asides from Family Guy.

Fargo (Blu-ray). One of the Coen Brothers' best films, this Oscar winning film is coming to Blu-ray. I can just imagine how much whiter those snow-filled scenes will look, not to mention the wood chipper...

Big (Blu-ray). Tom Hanks' classic comedy. How can you not like this movie about a boy who gets his wish to be big? Not sure I need it in high definition, but the movie is well worth the time.

Star Trek: Motion Picture Trilogy (Blu-ray). In case you don't want that big six-movie set mentioned above, but you still need a fix for the classic Trek, this will fill the bill. This trilogy contains The Wrath of Khan, The Search for Spock, and The Voyage Home.

Licence to Kill (Blu-ray). One of the two Timothy Dalton Bond films. I have not seen this one in some time, but I remember this being the one I liked.

The Man with the Golden Gun (Blu-ray). Step back before Licence to Kill, back to the Roger Moore era. This one is where Bond faces off with Christopher Lee and his one shot/one kill gun. It was a ridiculous entry, but still fun.
