The Week's Top-10 Blu Ray

2012 (Two-Disc Special Ed) ~ John Cusack, et al. (2010)

2012 (Single Disc Version)
Missed it at the theater for a week straight like we did? (Dang, we must have been planning our 2013 trip to Bermuda.) Despite some heavy criticism, 2012 does make you appreciate some of the better things in life...

Ponyo (Two-Disc Blu-ray/DVD Combo) ~ Liam Neeson, Noah Lindsey Cyrus, Frankie Jonas, Cate Blanchett (2010)

Don't let the simple cover art sway you; Hayao Miyazaki's one of the most imaginative of filmmakers. Loosely based on H.C. Anderson's "The Little Mermaid", this is a 5-star piece of flickmaking.

Where the Wild Things Are ~ Max Records, Catherine Keener, Mark Ruffalo, Lauren Ambrose (2010)

Fuzzy monsters are raising a rumpus in the forest. Crack open the cheezies; sounds like the in-laws are back.

Clash of the Titans (Blu-ray Book) (2010)

A real toga-ripper. Warning: do not use this film to cram for classical mythology exams.
DTS-HD High Res Audio.

The Neverending Story ~ Noah Hathaway, Barret Oliver, Tami Stronach, Gerald McRaney (2010)

It ended after 102 minutes. We set it on 'repeat'.

Alice (2009 Miniseries) ~ Caterina Scorsone, Andrew Lee Potts, Matt Frewer, Philip Winchester (2010)

"'Alice' is a whole different animal from Lewis Carroll's classic - a gritty sci-fi adventure with action, romance, monsters, psychedelic horrors, and a revolution against a drug-peddling queen."

The Private Lives of Pippa Lee ~ Robin Wright Penn, Alan Arkin, Mike Binder, Winona Ryder (2010)

We're a bit puzzled by the mega-flashback scenes, but you'll figure it out:

Gentlemen Broncos ~ Josh Pais, John Pleshette, Clive Revill, Sam Rockwell (2010)

'Benjamin' is a self-conscious, home-schooled pup whose dreams of becoming a sci-fi writer get him into a wee bit of trouble...
