Captain America (1990)
Contrary to popular belief, this is not the worst live action movie ever made featuring Captain America. It is, however, not very good either. Still, it makes for a fun movie night for superhero fans in search of laughs. |
|
Lion King D-rectors Roger Allers and Rob Minkoff: 2D’s for a 3D hit!
With The Lion King a hit again on 3D screens and a sure-to-be massive Blu-ray release just a few days away, Jeremie joins a roundtable discussion with the movie’s directors, Rob Minkoff and Roger Allers! |
|
Mad: Season One, Part One
The original satirical magazine makes a truly genuine translation from page to screen in a Warner Bros. Animation animated program that feels close in freewheeling spirit to the unit’s classic 1990s animated comedies. |
|
Hoodwinked Too! Hood Vs. Evil
Though not the worst animated film you’re ever likely to see, don’t get hoodwinked into seeing this lower than average sequel to a surprisingly fun original. The extras try, but there are no happy endings here. |
|
Lion King animator Tony Bancroft takes “warthog”’s share on Pumbaa!
As The Lion King roars again on the big screen, Jeremie Noyer joins a virtual roundtable with supervising animator Tony Bancroft, who recalls bringing Pumbaa the warthog to life! |
|
Bambi II: Special Edition
Disney’s surprisingly good direct-to-video midquel gets its own Blu-ray special edition upgrade, and while the film looks great – too perfect at times – the extras don’t really offer anything new of worth. |
|
The Fox And The Hound: 30th Anniversary 2-Movie Edition
Unexpectedly vibrant in a new restoration, Disney’s overlooked 1981 feature makes it to Blu-ray, though the film’s mid-quel follow up and lack of vintage documentaries don’t enhance the package much. |
|
The Nightmare Before Christmas in 3D
Tim Burton’s holiday tale returns to hi-def disc, now with an added third dimension that spookily looks like it’s being watched through a ViewMaster. And it works…kind of… |
|
Au clair de La Luna with director Enrico Casarosa
As Pixar’s latest short film begins its journey around the world’s international film festivals, Jeremie Noyer speaks exclusively with director Enrico Casarosa about this uniquely personal project. |
|
Private Snafu Golden Classics
The classic World War II cartoons, done primarily by the Looney Tunes crew for the military, appear in restored form from Thunderbean. This is certainly the best way we’ve had yet to watch these funny and historically relevant shorts. |
|
Mars Needs Moms
A misfire from Disney and ImageMovers, Mars Needs Moms fails in almost every regard to bring a fun kids book to the screen with any sense of fantasy about it, with the 3D adding very little. |
|
M.A.S.K.: Volume One
Another 1980s toy tie-in, this show strives to combine Transformers and G.I. Joe, but fails to live up to its premise. |
|
Batman – The Brave And The Bold: Season Two, Part One
No less fun in its second season, new guest stars like the Justice Society, Detective Chimp, and The Metal Men join old favorties like Aquaman and Green Arrow to make this a great show for comic fans especially. |
|
The Avengers: Earth’s Mightiest Heroes – Vol. 1 – Heroes Assemble & Vol. 2 – Captain America Reborn
A new superhero group is born when Iron Man, Thor, Hulk, Captain America, Wasp, and Ant-Man join forces to become The Avengers. |
|
Rockin’ With Judy Jetson
From the cover, you might think that this is for little girls only, but it’s really a fun and zany chase caper… with songs. |
|
Mars Needs Moms, but Earth needs Director Simon Wells!
As the final venture from Robert Zemeckis and Disney’s ImageMovers hits Blu-ray, Josh Armstrong speaks with Mars Needs Moms’ director Simon Wells about his film’s creation and reception. |
|
Tom And Jerry: Fur Flying Adventures Vol. 2
While the cartoons themselves are entertaining, Tom and Jerry: Fur Flying Adventures Vol.2 can’t break away from the mass-produced DVD stigma. |
|
The Herculoids: The Complete Series
It’s simplistic and repetitive, but those Alex Toth designs make watching this Saturday morning classic so worthwhile— a triumph of style over substance. |
|
Winnie The Pooh’s Directors Stephen Anderson and Don Hall: Back to the Hundred Acre Wood
Josh Armstrong pops inside the storybook to meet the directors of Disney’s return to the world of Christopher Robin and Winnie The Pooh! |
|
Have A Laugh! Volumes 3 and 4
The use of Hawaiian Holiday’s wrong master aside, the treasure here is the pristine restorations of some classic Disney animated shorts, even if the selection isn’t always great and the remixing and “Blamming” of footage is redundant. |
|
Winnie The Pooh‘s Henry Jackman, a “First Class” composer
As Disney’s latest return to the Hundred Acre Wood opens in US theaters, Jeremie speaks exclusively with the film’s composer about Pooh Bear and another of this summer’s blockbusters, X-Men: First Class! |
|
The Jetsons Meet The Flintstones
It’s the team-up that had to happen! It practically writes itself, but predictability isn’t always a bad thing in a project like this. More classic cartoon fun from Warner Archive. |
|
Superman: The Motion Picture Anthology
Lack of hi-def supplements aside, this really is a super-powered boxed set collection of Superman on screen from 1942-2006 and especially presents the Christopher Reeve films as never before. Essential! |
|
Cars 2 screenwriter Ben Queen on the race for his “Art Of” book!
As the world revs up for the imminent release of Disney/Pixar’s Cars 2, Jeremie Noyer puts the pedal to the metal to speak exclusively with the film’s screenwriter and Art Of book author Ben Queen! |
|
Chuck Norris: Karate Kommandos
Chuck Norris and his Karate Kommandos fight The Klaw and his henchman Super Ninja, but 1980s action cartoon enthusiasts and Norris uber-fans aside, there’s really not much to recommend about this generic show. |
|
Happiness Is… Peanuts – Snoopy’s Adventures
Snoopy stars in this budget release. There has been no remastering, but the price is right for a good episode from the TV series, and an even better TV special. |
|
Challenge Of The Gobots: The Original Miniseries
This mid-80s toyfest is fondly remembered by some; and is seen as a weak competitor to Transformers by others. It’s not the strongest show, but no denying there’s some charm in the concept of giant shape-changing robots. |
|
Kachow! The Cars 2: Agents On A Mission Tour
Five years after their first film’s premiere, Lightning McQueen, Mater – and Josh Armstrong – are back in North Carolina to promote Cars 2. Get the rundown and see exclusive photos here! |
|
Green Lantern: Emerald Knights
These tales of the Green Lantern Corps should serve as a great primer for anyone looking forward to the theatrical film. The origins of the Corps are revealed, and we find out what it truly takes to be a Green Lantern. |
|
Thor: Tales of Asgard
Younger audiences hungry for more Thor after the big-screen movie will enjoy Marvel’s latest animated title, but long-time comics fans will be split between either being pleased or just plain bored! |
