Fanboys [Blu-ray] Reviews By Customers
This is a fun movie for all of Geekdom…. Star Wars fans will appreciate this one.
Story revolves around a group of friends who really aren’t going anywhere…. where Eric (Sam Huntington) feels his life needs direction, as he listlessly works at his father’s used car lot, even though his true passion is art, and creating his own comic book, something he put off thinking it was all pipe dreams. Then there are his friends, best friend Linus (Chris Marquette), nerd o’rama Windows (Jay Baruchel), and crazy man, Hutch (Dan Fogler) who has pimped out his van as if it is the Millennium Falcon, and nerd cutie Zoe (Kirsten Bell). These guys live and breath anything fanboy, whether it’s arguing who fired first… Han or Greedo, which is better Empire or Jedi, arguing if Boba fett is a genuine bad ass or not, and basically repeating their favorite movie lines in everyday lingo (seriously who doesn’t do that? my friends and I do it) anyways turns out Linus finds he has a terminal illness where he and Eric have drifted apart after high school, where Eric thinks what his friends do are childish games, that they never grew up, thinking he is the only one who really moved on from this nonsense, where as with the rest of the group it’s a passion something they enjoy, like outdoor enthusiasts enjoying the outdoors, dog lovers that will do anything for an animal, people who collect garden gnomes, it’s something they enjoy. Linus knows he will not see Star Wars Episode I, so when Eric realizes this he hatches a plan to go to Skywalker Ranch to steal a copy with the group. On the outside it’s a buddy road trip movie, with it comes the hilarity, but deep down it wasn’t about stealing one of the most anticipated movies to hit 1999, it’s about knowing who your true friends are and spending one last adventure before it’s too late, where Eric doesn’t realize this until I think mid way through. Each of the characters find out who they are, and they too can follow their dreams no matter how big or ridiculous, Windows finally see Zoe for who she is not just a best friend but deep down actually loves her, it’s reciprocal, and Hutch follows his dreams of opening an Automotive Detailing Business.
Anyways hilarity ensues when they stop in Iowa the birth place of one James Tiberius Kirk, and Hutch gets into a fight with a bunch of Trekkies, one played by Seth Rogen, who also plays a pimp in Vegas. And when they do reach Skywalker ranch they run into some very animated Security Guards played by Will Arnett, and Craig Robinson. With More cameos by Shatner, Carrie Fischer, Billy Dee Williams, Kevin Smith.
This film is funny, and heartwarming (kind of odd for this type, some will argue it should of been a straight up comedy/ road trip movie, why the downer of having a character with a Terminal Illness and all, it still worked in my opinion)…. Saw this will be released on Blu Ray… hopefully with some decent Special Features…. over all any Star Wars fan, hell, any movie fan will enjoy this who likes comedy and a good laugh.
one of my favs… – Angela – Mississippi, USA
I love this movie for a lot of reasons… I mainly watched it because I really like Chris Marquette… I have loved him in every movie and show he’s done… But this movie is hilarious 
They have a great cast, and to me, they couldn’t have picked a better girl too. I have seen a lot of “real Fanboys” complain about this movie because they say it doesn’t capture what a “real fanboy” is… okay, it’s a movie, first off… second, IT’S A MOVIE… IT’S A DAMN MOVIE… and it’s more than just being a fan of it all… it’s a story about, friendship, GROWING UP, and doing what you want and think is best…
Not bad – J. Mackin – Caledonia (Scotland)
Funny film, but i can’t believe the characters went to all that hassle for The Phantom Menace. lol

Dexter is back and more killer than ever. The Emmy-nominated Showtime Original Series (Best Drama Series, Lead Actor in a Drama Series) returns for an all-new season – and this time Dexter’s got a new take on taking life. Having faced some of his darkest demons, Dexter’s ready to put the past behind him. Now, with family life, a day job catching killers and an uncontrollable urge to do away with the ones that get away, Dexter’s got his work cut out for him. And when a high-profile case sides him with powerful Assistant DA Miguel Prado (special guest star JIMMY SMITS), the pressure might be too great for even our beloved Dexter to hack.
Dexter: Seasons One-Four [Blu-ray] Reviews By Customers
Dexter has got to be one of the best shows on TV. The knowledge and creativity that went in to this show is superb in comparison to what we’re used to seeing on TV. Even though it may offend some people who are a little more sensitive than the normal human, there is no doubt this show is one of the best on TV. It’s 100% original and full of suspense; it actually keeps you looking forward to the next episode. It’s rare for any show to keep me that anxious about watching the next episode, but this show does that.
cheaper to buy a different way – gabrielle –
It’s cheaper to buy seasons 1-3 together, and then season 4 seperate, It’s about cheaper!
Buy Separately and SAVE more $$$ – Kio514 –
As of 8/26/2010, if you buy all 4 season separately, it’s still cheaper. that’s what I did. 4 season set is 140.49 today, but if you buy them separately, 126.46.

A dazzling and yet frequently maddening bid to bring the movie musical kicking and screaming into the 21st century, Baz Luhrmann’s Moulin Rouge bears no relation to the many previous films set in the famous Parisian nightclub. This may appear to be Paris in the 1890s, with can-can dancers, bohemian denizens like Toulouse-Lautrec (John Leguizamo), and ribaldry at every turn, but it’s really Luhrmann’s pop-cultural wonderland. Everyone and everything is encouraged to shatter boundaries of time and texture, colliding and careening in a fast-cutting frenzy that thinks nothing of casting Elton John’s “Your Song” 80 years before its time. Nothing is original in this kaleidoscopic, absinthe-inspired love tragedy–the words, the music, it’s all been heard before. But when filtered through Luhrmann’s love for pop songs and timeless showmanship, you’re reminded of the cinema’s power to renew itself while paying homage to its past.
Luhrmann’s overall success with his third “red-curtain” extravaganza (following Strictly Ballroom and William Shakespeare’s Romeo & Juliet) is wildly debatable: the scenario is simple to the point of silliness, and how can you appreciate choreography when it’s been diced into hash by attention-deficit editing? Still, there’s something genuine brewing between costars Ewan McGregor and Nicole Kidman (as, respectively, a poor writer and his unobtainable object of desire), and their vocal talents are impressive enough to match Luhrmann’s orgy of extraordinary sets, costumes, and digital wizardry. The movie’s novelty may wear thin, along with its shallow indulgence of a marketable soundtrack, but Luhrmann’s inventiveness yields moments that border on ecstasy, when sound and vision point the way to a moribund genre’s joyously welcomed revival. –Jeff Shannon
Moulin Rouge! [Blu-ray] Reviews By Customers
i’m not by any means a girly girl. i am all for blood and horror and i dont often like chic flicks. but this movie grabs me by my heart and throws me around the room. heck, i dont even like nicole kidman that much but she plays her part well in this movie. Ewan McGregor makes me fall in love with him every time he sings. and those big eyes set fire to my soul.
this movie isnt much liked by most people. i dont understand why. its artistic, funny, romantic and tragic. it has become a very important movie in my life. it has a lot of emotional value that you might miss if you dont open your heart to it. and if you miss it then its just a shame.
i recomomend popping it in your DVD playing for a romantic evening by candle light.
Amaing Movie – Jonthomasdesigns – Amherst ,MA
Ok i will admit the first 1/2 hour is wire wind .. but after that it becomes clear this is a amazing movie .. the visuals are amazing and the story is heart warming and heart breaking at the same time .. it is why we watch movies .. it is worth watching 3 or 4 times
Great even after the 20th time! – JHH –
Loved this movie! Loved the music, the singing, the colors! This movie made me laugh and made me cry. I can watch it back to back (like what cable TV does) and still enjoy it every single time!
a joke – eswan –
After seeing a costume layout of this movie in Vogue with Nicole, I awaited this movie with great anticipation. Well, I hated it. It’s dizzyingly fast paced, ridiculous and totally mixed up. It seemed like they couldn’t decide what they wanted this film to be. I couldn’t focus on a single frame as each only lasted a split second. The only good thing is that Nicole can actually sing and she looked beautiful, when you could focus on her.
If this movie were an outfit, it would look like someone reached into the closet – blind-folded – and put on whatever was pulled out.
I walked out half-way through and asked for a refund.

It’s terror by the slice with this twofer featuring a fiendish scalpel-wielding physician and a diabolically demented pizza guy. Dr. Giggles makes its house call with the gone-whacko tale of a night-prowling surgeon who uses his bag of medical malpractice tricks – scalpel, saw, stomach pump – on victims. “One of the funniest put-ons within the horror-film canon” (John Stanley, Creature Features:The Science-Fiction, Fantasy and Horror Movie Guide). Some guys would kill for a date and pizza-delivery dude Otis is one of them. That cute cheerleader tied up in his basement? His prom date. “It’s Juno for the horror set!” (Spooky Dan, Bloody-Disgusting.com).

A U.S. marshal assigned to Antarctica tries to solve a series of puzzling murders before winter brings bad weather and total darkness.
Whiteout [Blu-ray] Reviews By Customers
Something about cold environments I find chilling in more than one way. A perfect setting for a mystery. Why did Russians fight to the death on an airplane fifty years ago? Why does the body count go up when some scientist digging for core samples in the Antarctic find the plane? Who all is involved in killing people? Whose the masked guy with the ice axe trying to take your head off? All these and more questions will be answered by the conclusion of the movie. From the cutesy picture on the cover I fully expected some overly cute woman to pander to the camera as she trotted around half naked trying to do a job she was ill suited. Well whomever designed the cover should be slapped as it does the movie an injustice. This is a genuine well done mystery in the Antarctic with good story, directing, acting, sets, music, et cetera. From some of the reviews I thought it might stink but I was impressed with it and glad I rented it. This US Marshal, well played by Kate Beckinsale, is no slouch and she comes complete with a back story as to why she is stationed in such an inhospitable environment. When they find a body on the ice she is suspicious of it’s condition as she has seen one similar in a much warmer clime. She is nearly killed on a few ocassions as she tries to discover what someone is hiding and why they are killing people at the outposts. If you enjoy mysteries I suggest you at least rent this one and leave any preconceptions behind before hitting play. Good quality DVD, but only some language choices included. If you enjoyed this catch Mindhunters.

WHITEOUT IS A STRIKEOUT – Michael Ledo – Windsor, SC United States
Kate Beckinsale plays a U.S. Marshall stationed in Anarctica. (Do they have them there?) She investigates a murder which develops into a series of murders including an attempt on her life. The number of suspects is slightly more than a Scooby-Doo episode, but not by much. After a Russian plane crashes in 1957, the movie shifts to the present with a gratitous scene of Kate peeling off layers of clothes to take a shower. However, that is not the “some nudity” promised in the rating box. It is male streakers. The amount of hard whiskey drinking I find incredible as alcohol is one of the worst drinks one can have in a freezing environment and a level headed marshall would know that. In addition to the murders, Kate has to battle the elements as well as frequent Miami flashbacks, explained about midway through the movie. I found Beckinsale unconvincing in her role. In fact all the characters are stiff without any memorable personality traits. I also believe this movie could have been enhanced with a better soundtrack.
MLC Review of Whiteout – M. L. Cockerill – Gig Harbor, WA USA
I just recently saw this movie and did not know what it was about but I really liked it. Although it was different it provided for me the same suspense and thrill of “The Thing”. There were 2 great fight scenes and in the first one where the heroine eventually lost 2 of her fingers I was jumping out of my seat in terror. It is a good who dunnit. I was pleasantly surprised. Also, I like it when “tough” chicks win out.
