All I can say is 'thank you' A&E Home Entertainment for treating one of the most important animes of our lifetime with respect. On with the review!
Now that the 'pesky' Halloween has ended we can finally get to what matters. Thanksgiving and Christmas. With those comes some delightful holiday releases that will put you in the mood for a roast beast.
The Essential Daffy Duck is a collection of twenty-one of the crazy duck's cartoons. While nearly all of these have been released on previous Looney Tunes collections, it's still good to see Daffy get a moment in the spotlight. I just hope this isn't the last one.
Frosty's Winter Wonderland, a classic animated film that first debuted in 1976, was re-released on DVD earlier this month by Warner. The Deluxe Edition contains a remastered version of the Rankin & Bass movie, complete with a few extra features. One of my favorites, Frosty's Winter Wonderland is a great addition to any holiday library.

Come find out.
Paramount wants to start the Halloween season off with a bang... or rather a *slash*, with its soon to be released Friday the 13th: The Ultimate Collection on DVD. Is this simply another re-release or is this something genuinely nice? Come find out.
Have you seen the yellow umbrella? Well through season six of How I Met Your Mother the umbrella makes a number of appearances. Couple that with a great selection of bonus material, and the season six DVD collection of How I Met Your Mother provides hours of entertainment.
Life sometimes imitates art. Sometimes too accurately.
I must admit I had never read any of Pratchett’s work before watching Going Postal, but can absolutely assure you I will be after watching the film. I fell in love the Discworld almost immediately. The characters were outrageous and so full of life and charm you couldn’t help but appreciate the genius of the creator. The world itself is unbelievably imaginative. When tied together with the storyli...[Read More]
