As we uploaded the
latest DVD
COVERS & RELEASE DATES onto our website, I
noticed a few things about some of the "big" summer
franchise releases and their DVD covers. In one word: yawn!
For f*ck’s sakes, can anyone tell the covers of the new HARRY
POTTER and PIRATES OF THE CARIBBEAN movies apart from their
previous incarnations? Granted, I’m not a major Potter fan or
anything, but straight up, man…don’t they all pretty much look
the same?? (I realize that’s part of their "raison-d’etre",
so that moms and pops will just pick ’em up as they walk through
the aisles).
Then again, my mom
always used to tell me that all my "heavy metal music"
sounded the same to her, so maybe this is just me turning into an
"old coot". And speaking of crappy music, one of my
favorite bands from the 80s, Motley Crue, is releasing a DVD of
their greatest videos or some shit. Hopefully it includes some of
their groupie sessions as well. I’d cut one of my pinky toes off
for that stuff.
Not sure if that’s the
final SIMPSONS MOVIE DVD cover, but if so, that’s some fun times.
Also, I might have a crush on Keri Russell, hence my appreciation
of the WAITRESS cover, and the POLTERGEIST covers always were
cool, and the most recent Special Edition is no different. By the
way, did SKINWALKERS actually come out in theaters? I don’t even
remember that stuff. I gotta cut back on the ganja, apparently.
And do we really need an umpteenth version of THE PRINCESS BRIDE?
Sheesh. PS: I dig the OCEAN’S SET cover.
