I have a smorgasbord of games in my current rotation, which is really unusually because I almost always sick to 2-3 games at the most. In no particular order: Joe Danger – What a fun little game. It is going to be really hard for me to get 100% (from a Trophy consideration) on this [...]

Over the weekend I started transferring some of my digital movies included with my Blu-ray library to my PC. Lord of the Rings trilogy, X-Men trilogy, and a handful of others. Something to help pass the time while traveling. For the most part I have been selecting iTunes; I swear one of these days I [...]

Saturday Stuffs Madness

It has been a while since I went hells blazing, stuffs to the wall crazy, so I figured it was time … There And Back Again I spent last week in Calgary, which explains why the site experienced a severe slowdown. Thursday and Friday marked the first time in over 150+ days (8 months) that [...]

I’m sipping on a cup of the delicious black nectar of the gods, contemplating the upcoming three day weekend. The weekend will be fun filled and action packed; well maybe not so much action, but undoubtedly fun. For starters my youngest son turns three on the 19th. It’s kind of amazing that the little bugger [...]

Sleeping Beauty (Blu-ray)

No comments

If you are a fan of Disney classics, and appreciate the finer glory of Blu-ray, you must check out Sleeping Beauty. It has been years since I have seen this classic. I watched it over the weekend with my youngest son, and I was left with “wow” as the best description I can offer. Not [...]

I enjoy lurking around on the Blu-ray.com forums; stumbled across this thread yesterday – the 1978 animated version of The Lord of the Rings will be released on Blu-ray April 6. I immediately made a pre-order on amazon; “blind” purchase and all. I do not care how much cheese factor this movie has; it has [...]

I have had the “Planet of the Apes 40th Anniversary Collection” Blu-ray in my Amazon shopping cart for the better part of year, but I have held back on a purchase because I just could not justify the price. Yesterday, on an impulse purchase, I picked up the set from Amazon during one of their [...]

Friday December 18, 2009. What I like to call my 16th Wedding Anniversary. With lots of love to my better half for sticking with me this far! I am taking the day off, which sets me up for a nice three day weekend. Technically I took half a day off yesterday as well, but since [...]

My PS3 has not been getting much of a workout of late; except for playing the occasional Blu-ray (watched X-Men 1 last weekend), the PS3 is off most of these days. It is not as if I have nothing to play – FIFA 10 and Madden 10 should get plenty of sports time with Ferrari [...]

Shopping was easy this year – my wife and I did almost everything exclusively by Amazon, which means we beat the crowds and got plenty of great deals. I ordered my boys “replacement” Nintendo DS systems because 11 and 7 year-old boys cannot keep these things damage free for two years. I managed to snag [...]

Blu-ray safely hits home

2 comments

According to Blu-ray.com, major studios are making a significant push to further the appeal and adoption of Blu-ray by enticing consumers with low prices. Several examples were cited in this article, but the kicker is the prediction that DVD is finally headed out. Adams projects 9 million Blu-ray ready homes at the end of this [...]

I finished up Volume 2 of the James Bond Blu-ray Collection last night, saving Thundarball, my favorite in the collection for last. All things considered, I know From Russia with Love is considered a classic, and it is a good film, but Thunderball in my humble opinion is a lot better. Not only does the [...]

For Your Eyes Only

No comments

A couple of weeks ago Amazon run a Deal of the Day on the Blu-ray James Bond collections. I ended up picking up all three for a smidgen under $30 each. That is a lot of Bond; a lot of duckets for a lot of Blu-rays! Last night I watch For Your Eyes Only which [...]

T&A Thursday returns with a little porn action for the PS3 courtesy of kotaku. Japan’s DDM.tv is bringing on-demand Blu-ray quality HD adult movies to the PLAYSTATION 3. The service requires a broadband connection, an HDMI cable and, obviously, a PS3 console — the only device the service works with presently. Yeah. I think this [...]
