I already had Guardians of the Galaxy way back when it first came out, but when I saw the Steelbook, I had to have it. It just look cool. Guardians of the Galaxy has always been a guilty pleasure for me just because of how fun the movie was. Basically, there's nothing new if you already have this movie. I've never seen it in 4k until now, and it looks great.

I needed a new hard drive for my PS4 since my Seagate wasn't cutting it, and I wanted to get my money's worth, so I did research on this baby. Getting this out of the way, you CAN use this not just for PC/laptop, but for consoles. When it comes to downloading and transferring data, the time it takes in my opinion is faster than what I was previously using. It runs smooth and quiet. I cannot for the life of me seeing myself breaking this drive. It's a tough device. And by any chance it does break down on you, there's a nice warranty. Really, the only downsize is the price. Because there are different sizes, it all depends on what you really need. If you can get them on sale (which I did), it's a great investment. I think I'll stick with this brand instead of Seagate.
An anime-induced euphoric trip! - Carlos Aguilar, The Wrap The first feature-length film from the acclaimed studio Trigger, creators of KILL la KILL and Little Witch Academia, and director Hiroyuki Imaishi (Gurren Lagann), Promare is a blistering action-adventure that will set your soul on fire! Thirty years has passed since the appearance of the Burnish, a race of flame-wielding mutant beings who destroyed half of the world with fire. When a new group of aggressive mutants calling themselves Mad Burnish appears, the epic battle between Galo Thymos, a new member of the anti-Burnish rescue team Burning Rescue, and Lio Fotia, the leader of Mad Burnish, begins.

If you're a fan of Studio Trigger, the developers that started with Gurren Lagann (when they were still with Gainax) Kill la Kill, Darling in the Franxx, and BNA: Brand New Animal, then you should already know what you're getting into. The story is simple and predictable, but that's not exactly a bad thing. What makes Studio Trigger Studio Trigger is the in your face animation. Visually, it's what to expect from Studio Trigger; over the top action, extremely colorful, however it's a beautiful blend of 2D and 3D transition. In my opinion, this is their best work so far. As far as the dub goes, it's great. Billy Kametz is someone people might have not heard of, but he's great as the protagonist, Galo Thymos. Johnny Yong Bosch plays Lio Fotia who really gets to do it all with his variety of voice. I think the one voice actor that shines the most is Crispin Freeman as Kray Foresight, who also has that variety in his voice. The extras have a roundtable with Studio Trigger, and interview with director Hiroyuki Imaishi, a Q and A with some of the dub voice actors and the short films Side: Galo and Side: Lio. My only real complaint is that the Steelbook doesn't come with anything else other than the blu-ray and dvd. The soundtrack would have been awesome to have because the music is incredible. If you're not a steelbook person, the regular copy is fine, as you're only paying a few more bucks for the steelbook. Overall, Studio Trigger fans should check this out. I can't wait for their next work.

I'll admit, Rise of Skywalker was not perfect, but I thought it was a exceptional way to conclude the saga. The 4K Ultra quality looks and sound great, along with the regular blu-ray. I like behind the scenes, and the third disc is packed with great footage of making this film. Not going to lie, I looked at a couple of different Blu-ray covers for this movie from different stores (Walmart, Target), but I think this one is my favorite. Overall, if you're a Star Wars fan, and you enjoyed Rise of Skywalker, pick up the steelbook.

I'm a sucker for whodunnit type stories and Knives Out is one of the best ones I've seen in a while. And it's a surprise considering that Riam Johnson was on almost everyone's hitlist after the highly mixed opinion of The Last Jedi. Nevertheless, Johnson is a great writer and director and this movie proves it. With a great cast ensemble, there's a number of twists to leave you wondering who done it before and after the reveal.

I heard of Parasite and wanted to see it in theaters, but none of the movie theaters were playing it at the time. So, I waited when it came out on Blu-ray. Parasite reminds me of Fargo in tone. It's a black comedy that dives into capitalism between a low class family and a high class family as the low class family slowly work their way to earn the high class family's trust, disguising themselves as highly class people. We've seen similar movies like this before, but not like this. The deeper meaning is there, and what makes this movie more interesting is that this movie could have taken place in any other country. The theme would still be the same thing. The movie is subbed, and there's no dub option, but I hope that's not an issue because this is an incredible film.

Widows in my opinion, was one of 2018 overlooked movies. Don't get me wrong, it did great in box offices, but I think it was a bit overshadowed by other movies in the fall that were possible Oscar nominees, and it didn't get enough promotion. What also sets this movie apart is the mixture of both rising and veteran actors. Not only did Viola Davis, Liam Neeson, Colin Farrel, and Robert Duvall gave spectacular performances, but rising stars Daniel Kaluuya, Brian Tyree Henry, Cynthia Erivo, and Elizabeth Debicki were just as spectacular. Overall Widows was such a great movie.

Immediately when I saw the steelbook artwork for Joker, I thought to myself, "I have to get it." As mesmerizing Joaquin Phoenix's performance was, the steelbook was equally mesmerizing. I'll admit, when Joker was announced I was against it because Joker doesn't need an origin story. Also, at that time, I rather not see another performance by Jared Leto. My interest for the movie started to catch my attention when I found out who was involved such as Todd Philips, the director of the Hangover trilogy! What came afterward left me bewildered. In the end, Joker turned out to be a great movie.
This set contains a double feature from director Wes Anderson: Isle of Dogs and Fantastic Mr. Fox. In Isle of Dogs, a young boy goes on a quest in dystopian Japan to find his banished dog; in Fantastic Mr. Fox, a fox works to outwit three frustrated farmers and steal their food.

To be honest, I wanted to get the steelbook of Isle of Dogs when I went to the store a few years ago, but they ran out. One year later, I find that not only Isle of Dogs was on sale AND it was bundled with Fantastic Mr. Fox, that was a easy steal. Both movies are great and easily my favorite movies of Wes Anderson outside of The Grand Budapest Hotel. Also, if you're a fan of extras, both movies still have the extras contained.

At first glance, Rocketman may be a bit jarring to watch at times because it's not just a biographical film, it's a musical, but that was the point. Elton John has lived an incredible life, and it's only natural that his movie should be exaggerated. Thanks to his timeless musical hits, Elton John takes the viewer on a ride as he deals with his early life, fame, sexuality, drugs, alcoholism, depression, and love. Taron Egerton was meant to play Elton John, and the seeds were already planted if you followed his career so far. Not only was Elton John in the Kingsman: The Golden Circle, Egerton sang I'm Still Standing in Sing. It's just a shame he didn't get nominated for a Oscar. For Steelbook fans, it's worth the extra money. Overall, if you are an Elton John fan, you don't need me to tell you to pick up this film. Rocketman is a feel good movie from start to finish.
