Featured Blu-ray and DVD Review: Beauty and the Beast
June 6th, 2017
There have been three previous adaptations in Disney’s recent streak of live-action adaptations. I’ve previously reviewed all of them and only really liked Maleficent. In fact, I like Maleficent more now than I did when it first came out, because it took the characters and made an original story with them, while the other two only had minor changes, but were mostly beat-for-beat remakes. I mention all of this before even mentioning Beauty and the Beast, because this is what I want in these movies. I want a reason to watch this version rather than the original. Does this film give me a reason?

Featured Blu-ray Review: Bedknobs and Broomsticks
August 9th, 2014
Bedknobs and Broomsticks came out in 1971 and was part of the lowest point of Disney's box office numbers. For instance, this film cost $20 million to make at the time, which was no small amount, but it only pulled in $17.87 million. It is making its way onto Blu-ray this week, but is it worth picking up? Or was it part of the reason Disney was struggling for so long?

Featured DVD Review: Samson and Delilah
April 17th, 2013
Samson and Delilah was a Bible Epic made more than 60 years ago. Despite being a huge hit at the time (it was the biggest hit of the year and one of the biggest hits of the decade) it has never been released on DVD. That changed earlier this year, but has the film aged well? The Bible Epic is a genre that has fallen out of favor with moviegoers. And if it does holdup, does the DVD do it justice?
