Buy One Get One Free DVD Sales - Ending Soon

Saturday, December 15th, 2007

For those of you who didn’t know about it, DeepDiscount’s buy 1 get 1 free DVD sale on Fox movies and TV box sets ends tomorrow. There are lots of TV show box sets included in the sale. If you’re into collecting movies and TV box sets (as I am), you should check it out: Fox DVDs - Buy 1 Get 1 Free (sale is over). Just enter the code BOGOFOXMGM during checkout.

They’re also having another buy one get one free DVD sale on Anchor Bay DVDs, which include television shows like Roseanne, Grounded For Life, Three’s Company and others. This sale doesn’t have as much as the Fox sale, but it has a few goodies. The Anchor Bay sale ends December 19th, so don’t forget to browse through the titles listed on that one as well: Anchor Bay DVDs - Buy One Get One Free (sale is over). For this sale, enter the code BOGOANCBAY during checkout.

If you try and purchase too many items on 1 order, the buy one get one free prices wont go through, so place a few seperate orders if you have to. Standard shipping is free so multiple orders wont cost you any extra money.

I ordered every King of The Hill season and a few other box sets. You can’t really beat some of the prices, even on eBay. They originally had the 61 disc X-Files Complete Collectors Set on the Fox dvd sale for $230, so you could get two of them for that price. It retails for about $270 so I tried to order 6 of them, but they ran out too fast and said that they couldn’t get anymore. I wanted to keep one of them, give another one to someone for Christmas and sell the rest, but I guess I didn’t find the sale soon enough. :(

Spiderman 3

Saturday, May 12th, 2007

Spiderman 3 has returned to the big screen much to the delight of the kids and the young and heart. When movies like these are released, it brings out the kid in a lot of people. Most adults are just as excited to see what Spiderman is up to and who his arch-rival will be. Spiderman 3 already promises to be another blockbuster, blowing its competitors out of the water.

Looking Forward To Mr. Brooks

Sunday, April 22nd, 2007

Dane Cook and Kevin Costner in Mr. BrooksThe new movie “Mr. Brooks” starring Kevin Costner, Demi Moore and Dane Cook looks great. It is a different type of role for both Dane Cook and Kevin Costner, so it will be interesting to see how they both portray their characters in this crime thriller. From what I’ve seen on the trailer, they both did a great job. This role is especially different for Dane Cook, as he has always been a comedian and comedic actor.

I’ve always been a huge fan of Dane Cook. I think he’s a brilliant comedian and I believe he has great potential as a dramatic actor after seeing this trailer.

You can view movie information and more about the upcoming film “Mr. Brooks” at IMDB.com (Click Here)

Check out the trailer:

 

And buy “Dane Cook’s Tourgasm” 3-Disc DVD! (shameless plug)

Dead or Alive Hotties Not Coming to US Theatres?

Saturday, January 13th, 2007
FromWhatIHeard.com - Dead or Alive Hotties not coming to US theatersLooks like Europeans can consider themselves lucky this time, Dead or Alive-wise. You know Corey Yuen’s film adaptation of the Dead or Alive series of video games, DOA: Dead of Alive, and if you live in Europe
you’ve got a chance to see this flick, because it ran in several European countries as of September 2006.Many criticized this movie, to such an extent that the producing company has decided not to bring it to American theaters. Kotaku has the word, and they claim that DOA: Dead or Alive will premiere straight on DVD, this April. Good news or bad news, it’s going to happen.

The latest game of the series is Dead of Alive 4, released on Xbox 360. It was released back in late 2005 and features 22 playable characters, not all women. The storyline of the game focuses on Helena, the young woman taking over the mantle of DOATEC, as it second leader.

In addition, some side games to the DOA franchise have been released, one of them being Dead or Alive: Extreme 2, a “sports” game featuring hot girls in very skimpy bikinis. It is also available on Xbox 360, but I haven’t heard much about it since its late 2006 release.

Very interesting article from Softpedia. I can’t believe this, I was looking forward to this movie!

Nicolas Cage talks about Ghost Rider and National Treasure 2!

Saturday, December 2nd, 2006
FromWhatIHeard.com - Nicolas Cage talks about Ghost Rider and National Treasure 2

 

Actor Nicolas Cage talks about a possible sequel and National Treasure 2!

At a recent event at Hollywood Forever Cemetery for Sony’s upcoming film Ghost Rider, we had a chance to sit down with the film’s star Nicolas Cage and discuss a possible sequel to the film, as well as National Treasure 2.

In order to save his dying father, young stunt cyclist Johnny Blaze (Cage) sells his soul to Mephistopheles and sadly parts from the pure-hearted Roxanne Simpson (Eva Mendes), the love of his life. Years later, Johnny’s path crosses again with Roxanne, now a gogetting reporter, and also with Mephistopheles, who offers to release Johnny’s soul if Johnny becomes the fabled, fiery Ghost Rider, a supernatural agent of vengeance and justice. Mephistopheles (Peter Fonda) charges Johnny with defeating the despicable Blackheart, Mephistopheles’ nemesis and son, who plans to displace his father and create a new hell even more terrible than the old one.

You mentioned if the story to Ghost Rider 2 was good you would consider doing a sequel? Do you have any idea where you see that going?

Nicolas Cage: Well, I think, there’s a line in the movie somewhere where Johnny Blaze says to the police force that he really admires the job that they do, and that when he finishes his stunt cycle career, he intends to apply his skills as a motorcycle policeman. So I could see Johnny Blaze as a superbike cop.

You have a lot projects that you’re attached too, can you clarify where some of them stand?

Nicolas Cage: I don’t know exactly what the next film will be but it’s looking like National Treasure 2. It’s being written as we speak. The hope is that it’s going to be happening. It deals with Abraham Lincoln and Confederate gold; the assassination. It’s interesting stuff. What I like about the National Treasure potential as a series, is that it deals with history, and it’s also entertaining. That’s always a good thing. There are worse things to do than to stimulate young people’s minds about history as you’re entertaining them.

Everyone’s still attached from the first film?

Nicolas Cage: Yeah.

What about Sean Bean?

Nicolas Cage: I’m not sure how it’s going to work just yet.

Ghost Rider opens February 16, 2007 from Columbia Pictures.

This is from an article found on MovieWeb.com. Great interview and news, I cant wait to see both films!
