Justice League: The New Frontier ( Blu-Ray / Animated / DVD Release Date: 26 February 2008 / MPAA Rating: PG-13 / Running Time: 1 hr., 15 min. ) is a good translation of the comic book series of the same name by Darwyn Cooke. My only complaint is that I wish it were longer ( Read more... )

Good Luck Chuck ( Blu-Ray / Release Date: 21 September 2007 / MPAA Rating: Unrated; originally, R / Running Time: 1 hr., 41 min.; originally, 1 hr., 36 min. ) started out funny enough but ended up just bad.

The Bourne Ultimatum ( Blu-Ray DVD / Release Date: 3 August 2007 / MPAA Rating: PG-13 / Running Time: 1 hr., 55 min. ) is the third movie in the Bourne series.

This is not for ( Read more... )

The Lost Room ( Standard DVDs / Release Date: 11 December 2006 / MPAA Rating: / Not Rated Running Time: 4 hrs., 30 min. ) is the best mini-series that SciFi has produced and one of the best I have ever seen. This is the third time I have seen it. I am very happy that I bought it ( Read more... )

The New Frontier: Volumes 1 and 2 ( Writer and Illustrator: Darwyn Cooke / DC ) collects issues #1 to 3 and #4 to 6. The story was an excellent re-imagining of the dawn of DC's "Silver Age" and the artwork was an homage to the style of the time. It is a good addition to my collection. I hope the upcoming (Tuesday, 26 February 2008) animated film ( Read more... )

Y: The Last Man: Volume 2: Cycles ( Writer: Brian Vaughan / Penciller: Pia Guerra / Inker: Jose Marzan, Jr. / Vertigo ) is a collection of issues #5 to 10.
