Contest - How Many will Watch the Watchmen?

February 27th, 2009

Just one wide release next week, but it is a big one. Watchmen makes its highly anticipated debut on the big screen and opens in more than 3,500 theaters. More importantly, it is the target film this week. In order to win, one must simply predict the opening weekend box office of Watchmen. Whoever comes the closest to predicting the film's opening 3-day weekend box office (Friday to Sunday), without going over, will win a copy of Jet Li's The Enforcer on DVD, as well as The Lucky Ones on DVD. Meanwhile, whoever comes the closest to predicting the film's opening 3-day weekend box office (Friday to Sunday), without going under, will win The Protege on DVD, as well as Everybody Wants to be Italian on DVD. Entries must be received by 10 a.m., Pacific Time on Friday to be eligible, so don't delay! More...

DVD Releases for February 3, 2009 - Part I

February 3rd, 2009

Wow. That was... Due to technical difficulties, late deliveries, and some misfiled DVDs, this week's list is a little later than normal (but it's still Tuesday, so it's not technically late). It is also a lot larger than normal with a record number of Spotlight reviews (23 in all, or 30 if you count individual movies). There are also some very high quality releases including Zack and Miri Make a Porno on either DVD or Blu-ray. However, given the subject matter of that film, I wouldn't recommend it to everyone. The best release of the week is, Nick and Norah's Infinite Playlist on DVD or Blu-ray, but especially the Blu-ray, which is worth the upgrade. That film is the DVD Pick of the Week. With a record number of spotlight reviews, it goes without saying that the list had to be split up this week, with the second part found here, while the third part can be found here. (First time I had to separate the list into three parts.) More...

Movie Website Reviews for Weekend of September 5, 2008

September 6th, 2008

The weekend after Labor Day long weekend is historically one of the weakest weekend of the year. So it comes as no surprise that there are not many sites on this week's list. However, the average quality is excellent with most of limited release sites have more style that you usually find on these sites. That said, there's nothing here that stands out enough to be given the Weekly Website Award. More...

Everyone Wants to see Limited Releases

September 5th, 2008
