Told ya things were going to slow down a bit after Halloween. Sigh.
We actually really enjoyed Maleficent. Being that we're not very big on Disney Princesses, we weren't bothered at all by the changes to the Sleeping Beauty story like so many people were. Like the movie or not, you can't deny that Angelina Jolie was absolutely brilliant in this movie. If you passed on Maleficent in Theaters, do yourself a favor and see it. It's a good flick, and it's a definite buy for us.
The Shout Factory release of The Doctor and the Devils has us curious, mainly because of its star-studded cast: Timothy Dalton, Jonathan Pryce, Julian Sands, Stephen Rea, Patrick Stewart... that like a who's who of classic British Actors. If nothing else, this tale of grave robbers will be a great watch from an acting standpoint.
We really love the hell out of The Rock; the guy is charismatic as hell, and he makes for a great action hero. That being said, we have no desire whatsoever to see Hercules.
Finally, the Steelbook releases of An American Werewolf in London, Psycho, and Shaun of the Dead, look great. There's nothing new about these releases at all, aside from the fact that they each come in a shiny new Steelbook that boast some great artwork, so if you already own any of these movies, there's no sense in re-buying them. Unless you're a sucker for great artwork. Or Steelbooks.
