Wildflowers is by far Tom's most undrated album. It is great from start to finish with great hits like you wreck me, wildflowers, honey bee and more. I highly sugest going out and buying it as soon as posible.
What's great about it: Tom Petty & the Heartbreakers
The comic book comes to life with director/star Warren Beatty's colorful adaptation of Dick Tracy. Buena Vista has done a fine job with this 1.85:1 anamorphic widescreen transfer. The colors and black levels are all rich and very detailed without any major imperfections marring the image. While this is not a perfect looking picture (there is a slight amount of edge enhancement in a few key scenes), overall fans will be happy to receive this film in its original aspect ratio with a 16x9 enhancement. The soundtrack is presented in two options: Dolby Digital 5.1 Surround and DTS 5.1 Surround, both in English. Both of these soundtracks are utilized well with a vast amount of directional effects and surround sounds swirling around the viewer. All aspects of the mix are free of any excessive hiss or distortion. Also included on this disc is a Dolby Digital Stereo mix in French along with English closed captions Alas, while rumblings of a full blown special edition have been around, this first ever DVD release of Dick Tracy has been slapped on a completely bare bones disc.

This DVD collects a series of videos from the Red Hot Chili Peppers. The disc contains a standard full-frame transfer that reproduces the original aspect ratio of the individual videos. The English soundtrack is rendered in Dolby Digital Stereo. There are neither subtitles nor closed-captions on this release. Although the disc lacks any extras, fans of the band's funky sound will find much to enjoy. There is nothing here, however, for people who have no interest in the band.

One of the funniest films of all time, Blazing Saddles, is awarded an excellent 30th anniversary DVD release by Warner Bros., a company that has often shown great care to the important titles in its vault. The film itself is presented in a widescreen anamorphic transfer that preserves the original theatrical aspect ratio. The English soundtrack has been remastered in Dolby Digital 5.1, which makes it seem like one is hearing the infamous farting scene for the very first time. There is a healthy amount of quality extra materials, including a commentary by director Mel Brooks. Although it seems as if he was simply recorded while talking about the film (he never once refers to what is happening onscreen, and the commentary ends only an hour into the film), he recollections are amusing and enlightening. He discusses in detail how the various behind-the-scenes people as well as the cast came together. The other five-star nugget included on this disc is the pilot for the television spin-off Black Bart. Starring Louis Gossett Jr., the show is as amazingly unfunny as the movie is uproarious, but one may be struck by the crudity of the comedy that would have been telecast in the mid-'70s. A making-of documentary and a section from a special on the late great Madeline Kahn help make this DVD a must-own for comedy enthusiasts.

As a hard core Chili Pepper fan I really thought this was a good album, and is really underrated. Te lyrics were good as well as the sound with new guitarest Navarro. There isn't a bad song on this album and I highly recomend listening to it.

The first cd with guitarist John Frusciante and drumer Chad Smith and it turned out amazing. The chemistry with in the band really shows all throughout this CD as well as Anthony's beautiful lyrics. And with the addition of demos and live tracks the cd just gets better and better.

BSSM is by far the Chili Pepper's greatest album to date. It shows them in their prime in the early 1990's when they are just about to make it bigger than life. THe way each song has it's own unique and amazing sound is just down right impresive. I love this CD and think that any one who love the Red Hot CHili Pepers should go out andbuy it right now.

The Mel Brooks Collection is a great showing of Mel's talent and humor. With a wide variety of movies ranging from Robin Hood to the wild wild west there is clearly no limit that Mel wont go. I highly suggest buy it right away.
