Harry's DVD PICKS AND PEEKS for 3rd & 4th Tuesdays of January 2008: Lots of Good Stuff!!!

Hey folks, Harry here – I am profusely sorry that I’ve been skipping these – it’s completely and utterly unprofessional of me, but life has been pretty crazy here. But this is a crazy month – was sick for two weeks, Yoko turned 21, Father Geek turned 63 and Yoko and I celebrated 2 years of loving one another. Add to that the screenings and a whole bunch of hectic behind the scenes – and celebrating… and I just haven’t had time to do these lists and reviews which are extremely time consuming… with the viewing and write-ups. The January 15th and 22nd DVD releases – I never got around to writing. I thought about skipping the lists altogether and just writing the list for today… but I decided to go ahead and show you the titles from the past two weeks I was going to write up – so you can see what they were… and concentrate on the current list, which I’ll have up later today. As usual – you can click on the box art and titles to go to Amazon – for details, for purchasing and all that jazz. I’ll get today’s out to you, today. Till then, this is what I would have wrote about the past two weeks…

FAMILY GUY – BLUE HARVEST SPECIAL EDITION

I hate FAMILY GUY - it's the worst written show ever. It sucks, don't support it.





THE NAKED PREY – Criterion Collection

Brilliant film.





AN AFFAIR TO REMEMBER (50th Anniversary Edition)

Sniffle, laugh, cry





Post War Kurosawa Box – Eclipse from CRITERION – ( NO REGRETS FOR OUR YOUTH, ONE WONDERFUL SUNDAY, SCANDAL, THE IDIOT, I LIVE IN FEAR )

Wow





EARTH VS THE FLYING SAUCERS

ATTENTION - PEOPLE OF EARTH - WE HAVE BEEN COLORED!





SHE’S GOTTA HAVE IT

Nice to have this out!





BE MY VALENTINE, CHARLIE BROWN

Awwwwww





WHEN HARRY MET SALLY (Collector’s Edition)

there's an orgasm scene... well, not really, but the kind you're used to.





IT CAME FROM BENEATH THE SEA

It's kinda like the best Lovecraft film ever, and it to has been colored.





IN THE HEAT OF THE NIGHT (40th Anniversary Collector’s Edition)

brilliant.





THE MAN WHO COULD WORK MIRACLES

I know most of you have never heard of this - look it up - pick it up - it's great!





THE DISTRICT!

funky weird fun animation





TIME AND TIDE

love it





AUTOPSY

this sounded like a touching romantic comedy





WENT TO CONEY ISLAND ON A MISSION FROM GOD: BE BACK BY FIVE

GREAT! kinda.

Tuesday, January 22nd, 2008





THE GIRLS NEXT DOOR – SEASON 3

Yoko has me addicted to this - and says I should have two other wives so we could live like this. And no - I didn't place that Craig's List ad in San Francisco!





SAW IV

still sucking





THIS SPORTING LIFE – Criterion Collection

Criterion rules - as does this





SWAMP THING – THE SERIES

because - you can never get enough Swamp Thing.





MISS JULIE – CRITERION

I haven't seen these yet - but it's Criterion - I trust them.





CONFESSIONS OF A SUPERHERO

This rules... unlike... apparently... Morgan Spurlock's Vacation Film in the Middle East that played Sundance.





THE JOHN FRANKENHEIMER COLLECTION ( THE MANCHURIAN CANDIDATE / THE TRAIN / THE YOUNG SAVAGES / RONIN )

THE TRAIN is my fave.





THUNDERBIRDS 40th Anniversary Collector’s Edition Megaset

PUPPETS! well... MARIONETTES... well SUPER-MARIONATION!
