Street Fighter: The Legend of Chun-Li (also Blu-ray). Speaking of dumb entertainment, here is one you can safely avoid. What I was hoping for was a bad but fun movie. What I got was a bad but stupid movie. I could not help but shake my head at some of the silly things that take place in it. I guess this world does not require any logic in its inhabitants. It centers on Chun-Li (Kristen Kreuk) and her desire to get revenge on M. Bison for the death of her father. It is complete and utter nonsense.
Samurai Champloo: The Complete Collection. I think I already own all of this series on the original discs, but I am not sure. Anyway, this series is a lot of fun. It comes from the same creator as the fantastic Cowboy Bebop and moves away from science fiction and jazz and into period samurai adventure and hip hop. If you want action, comedy, and drama this is a series to check out. It is well animated and voiced. It is a definite must have for your collection and worth checking out even if you aren't an anime fan.
Tunnel Rats. Is it possible that an Uwe Boll movie could be good? I doubt it, but I have read good things about this one, so maybe my assumption is wrong. At least this isn't another movie based on a video game. Michael Pare stars as a soldier during the Vietnam War who is a member of a team of soldiers sent into Viet Cong tunnels to engage in hand to hand combat. Perhaps I will have to check this out.
