First off, I have to tell you that this page may load slow. We're making an awful lot of calls to the Amazon Api here, and that's bound to monkey with things. If you have no idea what that means... it's shiny. Please note also that, for the same reason, you may find, depending on traffic, that not all of the Amazon details will load properly. I apologize for that, it's just the nature of the beast, and the fact that the Api wasn't really meant for such things. If you refresh, it will probably fix.
You may have heard me mention this giveaway quite a while ago, and it's taken me a long time to figure out what sort of format to put things in, and I kept added things. Eventually it became too much to really give any kind of run down on the items, so I decided...

America Lost And Found: The Bbs Story (Criterion) Perhaps the best DVD box set released this year, this ultimate cinefile stocking stuffer offered up by Criterion, the Rolls-Royce of home video labels, features seven seminal works from the late ‘60s-early ‘70s that were brought to life by cutting edge producers Bert Schneider, Steve Blauner and director/producer Bob Rafelson, the principals of Bbs Productions. In chronological order: Head (1968) star the Monkees, the manufactured (by Rafelson, et al), American answer to the Beatles who, like it or not, did make an impact on popular culture, particularly in this utterly surreal piece of cinematic anarchy (co-written by Jack Nicholson, who has a cameo), which was largely dismissed upon its initial release, but is now regarded as a counterculture classic. Easy Rider (1969) is arguably regarded as the seminal ‘60s picture, about two hippie drug dealers (director Dennis Hopper...

Not even a year has passed since Avatar was released in theaters, and already its luster has started to fade. The fanfare that greeted it when people were finally able to see Cameron’s complete vision (after months of prophecies of box office doom) has been replaced by dismissal, hostility, and accusations of plagiarism of previous films (particularly Fern Gully and Dances With Wolves). Possibly as an effort to reclaim lost ground, James Cameron is now releasing another two versions of the film onto home video, each with eight more minutes of footage than the prior release. It’s unlikely that anyone who has entrenched him or herself in a camp on the film will change any opinions based on the new editions, as the footage added does little to clarify or enhance any of the films already well-stated points. But given the benefit of time, it should be clear...

Chicago – In April, Fox released one of the best Blu-rays of the year for James Cameron’s “Avatar,” an edition that proved that the film would still work even without the theatrical benefits of 3D or IMAX. It was one of the most impressive-looking HD releases in history but the lack of special features made clear that a double dip was on its way. Seven months later, Fox unveils the “Avatar: Extended Collector’s Edition” and it is simply amazing.
Blu-Ray Rating: 5.0/5.0
It’s happened again — a James Cameron film has been released in a version superior to the theatrical release (as is the case with “Aliens” and “The Abyss”). You will not watch the theatrical “Avatar” again. The extended cut is simply a better film. Most notably because of the opening chapter, six minutes on Earth, before Jake (Sam Worthington) is sent to Pandora and scenes that give...

Last week Avatar came crashing onto DVD and blu-ray in its promised "Extended" edition, incorporating footage from the theatrical re-release as well as some additional scenes held back from the previous cuts of the film. I have something of a tortured critical relationship with Avatar which became a bona fide global phenomenon which even climbed the ranks of genuine contenders for the Oscar. Chances are, if you're a regular reader of this site and/or a genre fan, you've more than likely seen Avatar--possibly more than once. Doubtless it's unnecessary for me to describe at length the particulars of the plot--how crippled Marine Jake Sully travels to the planet of Pandora, and how he comes to admire, love, and join the blue-skinned Na'vi (but there you go, just in case).
I'll admit that over the last year, I've increasingly reflected on the movie through crap-colored glasses thanks to what...
