Zack Snyder’s Redemption Song
on November 3, 2021
Posted by: Drew
Verified Purchase:Yes
Whoa! No matter how you feel about this film, it will go down as a memorable milestone where the support and patience of fans, actors, writers and crew along with good marketing timing can make something unprecedented happen. Zack Snyder was given full directorial indulgence to flesh out a vision that was cut short by studio interference and difficult life circumstances. Truly the behind the scenes story is as remarkable as the result of this film. You can see it in full 4K. My only gripe is that it doesn’t include the “Justice is Gray” version that was probably reserved for HBO Max. This is a feel good story for Zack Snyder.

Good time to get the collection if price is right
on November 3, 2021
Posted by: Drew
Verified Purchase:Yes
This is a cute edition. I really don’t like to get “gimmicky” sets like this because it takes up too much shelf space. However, the little house with Snoopy was adorable and can be used as Holiday decor away from the Blu-ray’s. The Blu-ray’s themselves are slim enough to store on a shelf however they are the size of CD jewel cases and goodness the discs are kept in place with the grip of a crocodile. Be care when taking them out. It also comes with a cute book of Holiday Peanut comic strips. This whole sets puts you in the Holiday mood. In addition to Halloween, Thanksgiving and the classic Christmas special, a handful of other specials are included along with a bonus disc with a retrospective and commentaries. Also, the specials come in original TV broadcast ratio and widescreen. A nice touch. All in all, it’s sure to please granted you get it for a good price.

It's all there - Clear as Crystal. Good Day, sir!
on July 9, 2021
Posted by: Drew
Verified Purchase:Yes
This movie is freakin' SWEET! I'm talkin' Scrum-diddily-umptiouis! It's never tasted better. The video qualty is smooth as a river of milk chocolate. The grain is like the texture of creamy nougat. The colors are like the kaleidoscope swirls of lollipops and gummi bears. And the upscale to 4K is like drizzling a coat of caramel. The story is as timelessly enjoyable as an everlasting gob-stopper. The acting, the product design, the story - it's enough to make your teeth sing with gushes of flavor washing over your mouth. It's all written right there - clear as crystal. All that's left to say is "Good day, sir!"

This classic album was the start of a new era.
on June 27, 2021
Posted by: Drew
Verified Purchase:Yes
It’s been 20 years since this debut album came out. I’d say it changed the direction for female R&B artists. Beforehand, there were female artists like Aaliyah, Mya, Brandy & Ashanti who were all great. Then Alicia Keys came out with a kind of ballad that seemingly wasn’t really radio-friendly with “Fallin” but everyone gravitated towards it. She followed it up “A Woman’s Worth” and other songs that weren’t necessarily dance bangers or anything but everyone loved it. Then, artists like Angie Stone, India Arie, Jill Scott and others came out and ushered in a new neo era. I can point this album as the catalyst. Having it on vinyl just gives that vintage feel.

A different Steelbook for a different Wonder Woman
on June 24, 2021
Posted by: Drew
Verified Purchase:Yes
I love the character of Wonder Woman. That means I love the character even when she’s in a mediocre movie. I simply can’t write off an entire movie much like a lot of people have done with WW84 because Gal Gadot and much of the cast act great in it. I see Patty Jenkins as taking the direction resembling more of the 70s TV series with Lynda Carter. It shows that Wonder Woman can be and has been many more things than a fierce warrior with a sword and shield. As for the presentation of this particular Steelbook, I think it’s a very trippy design that blends the golden armor. It’s unique if not traditionally Wonder Woman’s look. I still look forward to seeing this franchise grow and improve.

I’m a Sucker for Mario
on June 24, 2021
Posted by: Drew
Verified Purchase:Yes
I’m a sucker for Mario games. By sucker, I mean I’ve been playing Mario games since the first game. He gets into the same Hijinks with the same enemies and I wanna see it play out every time in every game. I’m pretty sure Mario is fired from his plumbing job. Dude does everything but plumbing - tennis, golf, smash bros. Fighting, etc. But now I’ve reached a new level of being suckered. I bought this game at full price on the Wii U. And now I bought this game again at full price on the Nintendo Switch. You’d think I’d at least wait for a sale but no, I’ve been a sucker since Game 1 and I’m a proud sucker 35 years later. At least they added an open world companion game “Bowser’s Fury”.

I’m happy there is a B&tB for a new generation.
on June 24, 2021
Posted by: Drew
Verified Purchase:Yes
I’m mixed on the live-action remakes because on one hand, it introduces future generations to the classic Disney retelling of “Beauty and the Beast” but on the other hand, previous generations will always compare it to the original. Fair or not, the changes/additions will always seem out of place even for good added songs like “Days in the Sun”. I guess the biggest hurdle I couldn’t get past was Emma Thompson’s uneven singing. It’s serviceable but where it was the highlight in the previous version, it is rather flat. She does bring the droves of fans who grow up to Harry Potter and Hermione so it’s nice for them. The rest of the cast works well except maybe Lumiere and Maurice. All in all, it was a decent enough remake. And this 4K set was enough for me to add it as a complement to the original animated movie.

One of my favorites in colored vinyl!
on June 23, 2021
Posted by: Drew
Verified Purchase:Yes
Wow! This album got me through a tough time in life and it dropped without me even knowing Alicia Keys had a new album coming out. This will always be one of my favorites. As for the Vinyl, I was pleasantly surprised to find it was a cool lavender-colored vinyl. Such cool art direction on this album.

Made from the heart from true fans
on June 23, 2021
Posted by: Drew
Verified Purchase:Yes
Despite having from understandably rough editing and production value, you can feel the heart put into this by the directors who were simply super fans like myself. It’s much more comprehensive and true than the Netflix “The Toys That Made Us” doc. I only wish it had special features and that it was released in HD. Other than that, it’s really great for any TMNT fan to pick up and remember why they were drawn to such a weird idea.

Classic 90s Action
on June 20, 2021
Posted by: Drew
Verified Purchase:Yes
I grew up to 90s action movies and you have to be in a certain mood to enjoy these over-the-top movies. It’s great to see Keanu Reeves and Sandra Bullock this early right before they blew up. This can be seen as the movie that catapulted their careers. Even Jeff Daniels before “Dumb and Dumber”. As for the movie, it’s a fast-paced smart story that keeps moving until the finale’s literal crash. The director followed it up with “Twister” but this one was a simple idea (at times a preposterous premise) taken to unbelievable heights. TheSteelbook is quite nice as well using Graphic Design rather than a movie poster. Highly recommended!
