Paramount President Kelley Avery made it clear that This list is only the beginning to Paramounts Blu-Ray plans. "We will have a strong slate of titles for Blu-ray release throughout the year, worldwide, and are enthusiastic about expanding the format's offerings for a broad consumer audience while delivering an experience that goes beyond what viewers love about DVD." Disappointment was expressed in various forums about the lack of "Transformers" on Blu-Ray in this initial list of titles along with the "Indiana Jones Trilogy" and the action thriller "Shooter." We here at the Corner of course will be covering these titles in reviews as soon as Paramount issues its plans for the screening of Blu-Ray titles. |
Featured Review
Jet Li is the best martial arts action star since Bruce Lee, mainly because he's a decent actor, too. Until "Unleashed," he hasn't been given much of an opportunity to show his acting skill in an American movie, and when you consider he's able to hold his own against the likes of Morgan Freeman & Bob Hoskins, it's an impressive performance indeed. Of course, he still engages in lots of prerequisite ass-kicking, but what makes "Unleashed" one of the better movies I've watched lately is it strikes a near-perfect balance of action and character-driven drama.
