DVD Corner…

In the past 2 weeks some of the best movies from early 2007 have been released. The best of the bunch start with Hot Fuzz and 300. If you haven’t had a chance to see either now is the time to get to it.

Hot Fuzz was a hilarious action comedy that only found a small audience when it was released earlier this year. Apparently the DVD release got people’s attention because the Dack had to go to 6 stores to find a copy last week. If you want more to know more about the movie check out my earlier review.

300 was a shot of adrenaline in February. I hadn’t heard much buzz before its release and was a little worried that it might be a cool concept that was horribly executed. On the contrary this film is in my top 10 for 2007 so far and was Awesome! It even has half naked beefcake soldiers for the ladies to enjoy. Don’t listen to anyone who talks about the inaccuracies of the movie…..being accurate is not what this film is about. 300 is all about being a crazy fun non-stop action rollercoaster.

Other recent DVD releases are…

Zodiac – This was one I heard good things about but Dack only has limited time. I am really looking forward to checking it out.

Disturbia – Shia LaBeouf stars in this Rear Window update. Haven’t seen it but I will be checking it out soon.

TMNT – Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles to the uninitiated. This was a fantastic shot in the arm for a franchise that was pretty much dead. If you have ever been a fan…check it out.

TV ON DVD

Two big releases coming out at the end of August.

Heroes – If you haven’t seen this show yet, do yourself a favor and check it out. The best super hero television mix I could have ever dreamed of. No, actually this show is better. I will be sure to pick this one up when it is released. If you like comic books or super heroes and haven’t seen this show…..WHAT ARE YOU THINGING!!!!!

Dexter – This is probably the best show on television you haven’t ever heard of. The best possible description is a mix between CSI and Silence of the Lambs. Imagine if the lead blood expert for the Miami Police department forensic team was a serial killer….that’s Dexter. Not for everyone but worth checking out if that description intrigues you.
