So what happens to a horror movie fan, suffering from withdrawal and having only Netflix to satisfy his horror movie needs? Well first that same fan, disgusted by the Netflix selection checks out what is available to him through his Amazon Prime membership. Then that same horror movie fan is disgusted by what Prime has to offer as well, but then finally settles on something, anything, in … [Read more...]
Let's get one thing out of the way right up front, Nicholas Cage is a terrible actor. At least now he is. No longer caring about anything he does or how badly he does it, he simply wants as many jobs as he can get to climb out of his debt hole. You can think back fondly on stuff like Moonstuck or Leaving Las Vegas but those days are gone, now we just have Ghost Rider and Kick-Ass. Ghost … [Read more...]
Always be weary of a movie you have never heard of starring a big name actor seemingly in their prime or not far from it. Usually it means they are doing a favor for a friend or trying to break the type cast mold that binds them. Seldom is it because the script was so awesome they could not pass it up. Sometimes, but seldom. With Demi Moore and Half Light there is the distinct possibility … [Read more...]
I signed up for Amazon Prime a few months back and I am making a concerted effort to watch all I can using their service. I want to check out their streaming, the sound and picture quality, their search features and their watchlist. So far I have been impressed with the entire Amazon Prime service. While I can not expect all the latest and greatest of films to be available free to me as part … [Read more...]
A few months back I decided not to purchase an Amazon Prime membership. Shortly after they presented me with a special offer, join Prime and get 20% diapers and certain other baby related products. With an 8 month old daughter I could not pass that up. I have already saved almost the entire price of the Prime Membership just on diaper orders and a few other shipping costs. So why am I … [Read more...]
When you have a giant news event like the Bernie Madoff story you are always going to get movies that take some spin off that real life news event. Whether they use a similar scenario or they take a "what if" approach. Whether they go to the theaters, direct to video or end up on Lifetime. The result is usually the same. They are rushed and rarely very good. You can't have a topical … [Read more...]
It seems to be a series or at least a pattern these days. Movies I should have watched a long time ago that I have only recently gotten around to yet really enjoyed. Disney's Bolt came out in 2008 but only just now in 2012 did I finally get a chance to watch it. Why am I suddenly watching movies like Bolt and Despicable Me when I could not muster enough interest to go see them when they were … [Read more...]
I have been using Amazon Instant Video for over a year to supplement my TV watching ability. Since I don't have cable Amazon has become the source for shows I want to watch but could not view otherwise. Despite the money I spend with them I am actually still saving a ton over keeping my cable bill going. Yet with all the greatness of Amazon and all that it has done for me I have always had … [Read more...]
Yes I said Rocky IV as in 4. Rocky vs Ivan Drago. We have all seen this 80's classic right? Rocky, fresh off his win against B.A. Baracus, a.k.a Mr. T, having avenged the death of his mentor The Penguin now must avenge the death of another friend Apollo Creed (face it, that is who Carl Weathers is best known for, I could say Dillon from Predator but ... really? Would you know that name … [Read more...]
I signed up for a free one month subscription to Amazon Prime. At the very least I recommend you do the same thing. Especially if you have a Roku or Amazon Instant Video capable device. There is some pretty good content worth checking out, just make sure you clear your TV watching docket so that you have the free time to take full advantage of what they are offering. Since most shows just … [Read more...]
