Hey folks, I won’t be reviewing “SPECTRE,” but I did want to put up a quick plug for the release of the Blu-ray and DVD (and the digital release if you’re into that sort of thing). For me, the release of a Bond film in the theater and on home video is always a major event as it’s one of my favorite film franchises. On top of that, “SPECTRE” just so happened to be one of my personal favorites of 2015 (evidence here: https://dvdcorner.net/2015/12/24/the-best-and-worst-films-of-2015/). Also, I’m not blowing smoke here, but the James Bond Blu-ray releases are some of the very best around. The picture quality and audio tracks never cease to blow me away. As the back of the Blu-rays often exclaim, “Bond is better in high definition.” Ain’t that the truth.

With Super Bowl 50 ads and conversations being everywhere as of late, American football is clearly on the mind of many folks. Being the film buff that I am, I started thinking about football movies and how a top 10 list would be appropriate on the eve of “The Big Game.” So, that’s what I wrote! While I’m sure some readers will be saying what about so and so, keep in mind this is entirely my opinion. Anyway, enough of my yammering, on with the list! Continue reading →

As a lover of cinema, I have a deep appreciation of films that are bad. No, I’m not talking movies that are so bad that they are unwatchable like “A Good Day to Die Hard” or “Glitter.” I’m talking about movies that are so bad that they become something special. A great bad movie is one that delivers things you’ve never seen before in a weird and wonderful way. In some ways, a great bad movie can even be just as fun as a beloved classic and I don’t mean that in an ironic hipster way. Yes, the bad films may be seriously lacking in the acting or filmmaking departments, but they more than make up for it in the unique ways the stories are presented.
Anyway, enough of my babbling. Read on to find out about some great bad movies that you may or may not have seen. Continue reading →

There are many Blu-rays and DVDs in existence, but there are still a large number of films unavailable on one or both formats. In order to perhaps grab the attention of a studio, I thought it would be fun to compile a list of titles that are in dire need of a U.S. release. Here we go! Continue reading →

Top 10 Comic Book Movies
Instead of reviewing a DVD or Blu-ray today, I thought I’d mix things up a bit and do another top 10 list. As you may have gathered over the years, I love making lists. Not only do I find it to be fun on a personal level, but it’s also a good way to keep track of films I treasure. Since comic book films/superhero films are all the rage these days, it felt like the right time to tackle that ever growing genre. Please note that these are a list of my personal favorites. No more, no less. Continue reading →

We all know 2015 was a strong year for television (evidence here: https://dvdcorner.net/2015/12/19/the-best-and-worst-tv-showsweb-series-of-2015/), but it wasn’t quite so memorable for cinema. While there were plenty of good films, there were just as many mediocre or awful films. What is most disappointing about 2015’s crop of films is that there were very few GREAT films. In fact, aside from my top 3, none of these films hold a candle to 2014’s strong offerings.
On with the list! Continue reading →

2015 was largely an underwhelming year for cinema (that best/worst list will be coming soon), but it was a good year for TV and web series. As per usual, cable and various other platforms (like Netflix) had the best series while the networks were generally a wasteland of tedious dreck. For the most part, I managed to avoid a lot of the “worst” series of the year so that list is fairly small this time around. Anyway, enough of my chatter, on with the list! Continue reading →
