DVD Releases: October 6, 2009

October 6, 2009 in Movies, tv/series by Brian Logee

Out this week we have three DVDs to feature:  The Guild: Seasons 1 & 2, Year One, and Red Dwarf: Back to Earth.

  • The Guild: Seasons 1 & 2 DVD Releases: October 6, 2009: The Guild is hilarious, geeky, fun! Fans of RPG’s and MMORPG’s will love this show. I first got into it because Felicia Day rules and am not let down. The guilds actual release was on September 29th but I did not want to miss this one. A great example of an independent production The Guild is a must own.  Watch a music video “Date My Avatar” from the Guild to get an idea of how funny this show is.

  • Year One DVD Releases: October 6, 2009: Banished from their primitive village after the tribe elders deem them too lazy, Zed and Oh embark upon an adventure-filled journey through the ancient world.  Being a Jack Black movie sparked my interest in Year One.  The trailers looked funny and now I can rent it.  If you have watched Year One let me know what you think about it.

  • Red Dwarf: Back to Earth DVD Releases: October 6, 2009: I love Red Dwarf. I started watching it on PBS as a child and have really enjoyed watching it now on DVD.  For those just getting into Red Dwarf you should really start back at the beginning since the impact and probably several jokes will be lost like Lister getting to finally go back to earth to get his Island home on Fiji.  I haven’t watched Back to Earth but eagerly await to rent it.

Exploring: Year One

June 17, 2009 in Movies by Brian Logee

year one poster Exploring: Year OneYear One is a Jack Black adventure, comedy, alternate history movie.  When a couple of lazy hunter-gatherers are banished from their primitive village, they embark on a journey through their ancient world. Along the way, they encounter Adam and Eve, Cain and Abe, and Abraham.

I like Jack Black and find most of his movies to be very entertaining in their least.  The premise of Year One did not excite me nor intrigue me yet the trailer did make me laugh.

This is a renter and I suspect could even be a good movie.  I’m wondering if it will be just fluff or if this will be like Kung Fu Panda and have great messages, be entertaining, make me laugh and just all around be an edifying experience.

Let me know what you think.  Will you go to see Year One in the theater on June 19, 2009 or rent it?  If you have seen it in the theater should I go see it and why?
