Blu-ray Highlights: Week of August 13th, 2017 – Thou Shalt Not Covenant (or Shalt Thou?)

Josh Zyber — Mon, 14 Aug 2017 12:00:52 +0000

New Blu-rays this week are inundated with terrifying bloody carnage, soapy teen romance, and drunken clowns. Geez, sounds like my seventh birthday party all over again. New Releases (Blu-ray) ‘Alien: Covenant‘ – The trailers for Ridley Scott’s new xenomorph splatterfest all made it look like a shameless retread of the original ‘Alien’ movie. Depending on...

Blu-ray Highlights for 7/12/11 – Return I Will to Old ‘Brazil’

Josh Zyber — Tue, 12 Jul 2011 13:00:15 +0000

Yes, it’s another slow summer week for new Blu-ray releases. Even the title I’ve most eagerly awaited appears to have arrived on the format in a compromised form. Will I be able to resist buying it anyway? Honestly, probably not. Here’s the week’s release slate, including titles that street on Friday: ‘Arthur (2011)‘ (Warner Brothers...

Here at The Bonus View, we’d like to highlight the more artistic side of filmmaking. Yes, film is art, but we’re not talking about that. There’s an entire world of artful marketing going on with our favorite medium. Like movie posters (which we’ve already started a feature to highlight), Blu-ray cover art can run the...

Weekend Box Office: Hilariously, ‘Wimpy Kid’ Clobbers ‘Sucker Punch’

Drew Taylor — Mon, 28 Mar 2011 13:00:50 +0000

Sometimes you just have to laugh when you see the box office receipts pouring in throughout the weekend. Initially, it seemed that the family film sequel ‘Diary of a Wimpy Kid: Rodrick Rules’ would take the top spot. Then on Saturday, Zack Snyder’s “edgy,” “sexy” (because these are words the studio uses to describe it)...

Weekend Box Office: ‘Limitless’ Reaches Its Potential

Drew Taylor — Mon, 21 Mar 2011 15:00:52 +0000

This weekend had a smattering of new releases. Thanks to an impossible work/travel schedule, I wasn’t able to see any of them early, but I’m still intrigued. None of the movies that opened were big tentpoles or four-quadrant spectacles, so it was really anybody’s guess as to which would ultimately triumph in the end. I...

Weekend Movies: Three Cute Dudes (One of Them Is an Alien)

Drew Taylor — Fri, 18 Mar 2011 15:00:48 +0000

This weekend’s box office crop seems to be defined by adorable leading me – Matthew McConaughey, Bradley Cooper, and a little green alien with the voice of Seth Rogen. What this means, exactly, besides typifying my lack of sleep here at SXSW, is beyond me. At the very least, the ladies in American audiences this...
