Ok, stop what you're doing, head out and grab a copy of Doctor Who: Series 6, Part 1 on DVD now. Prepare for some addicting, mind-blowing shows that will have you dizzy if you don't pay attention! Honestly, this show is such a blast that I will find myself going back again and again to watch. Right from the beginning of this DVD set, we see the team travel through time and get involved in a very mysterious situation where they must get help from former President Nixon! Every twist and turn of this awesome show is here in a 2-disc set to enjoy. And I enjoyed it quite a bit. I highly recommend it for its mind-bending awesomeness!

The Smurfs: A Magical Smurf Adventure

One thing is for sure, the Smurfs will always rock! With the movie out in theaters, it would be good to brush up on your Smurf knowledge with the DVD release of ! This 2-disc set of 10 fun episodes of the Smurfs is a must see for any fan of the show. I got a kick out of watching these episodes and being brought back to my childhood again. Show after show, you get to see how they just cannot keep themselves out of some kind of trouble! I highly recommend this DVD for both kids and adults! For a taste, check out the clip below:

PLATOON’s 25th anniversary (Blu-ray + DVD)

Before he was "WINNING", before such classics like Men At Work and Hot Shots, Charle Sheen starred as a lead in the moving Vietnam War flick known as Platoon. This was one of Oliver Stone's masterpieces, and 25 years later it still stands the tests of time. Very disturbing and realistic, Platoon highlights the fact that "the first casualty of was is innocence". MGM Home Entertainment has released a special 25th anniversary edition of this film on Blu-ray + DVD combo pack. If I were to recommend the top video sets of the year, this would be one of the top ones. The remastered video and audio on the Blu-ray version really show the film like never before. It's a movie that will stick with you for days after watching, and make you thankful if you never had to go through a hellish experience like this.

The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air: The Complete Sixth Season

"Now this is a story all about how, my life got flipped, turned upside down..."

Did I just bring back memories by posting that line? Good because now I can proceeed with letting you know about the new DVD release of The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air: The Complete Sixth Season. This final season of the TV series that skyrocketed Will Smith's celebrity status is full of cameos and surprises that are too funny to be missed. One in particular is the hilarious episode with Chris Rock playing a stand-up comedian AND his sister! For sure, seeing the image of Chris Rock all done up like a woman is enough to damage your psyche! But overall, this is one memorable season all leading up to a an emotional finale that might just bring tears to your eyes. Check it out!

VeggieTales: ‘Twas The Night Before Easter

VeggieTales, the animated specials that have theme songs that will get stuck in your head and annoy you all day have an Easter special. I appreciate the moral themes that they teach young kids, but that theme song drives me nuts! Anyway, it is almost Easter time and if you haven't watched this special, I recommend checking it out. It's got the familar cast that you've seen in all their other shows, except this one has a guest appearance by Cassie Cassava (voiced by American Idol finalist Melinda Doolittle). ‘Twas The Night Before Easter will have kids and parents laughing along as they get reminded what Easter is all about. Big Idea comes through again with some sharp animation and a valuable lesson for all to remember.

Charlton Heston Presents The Bible and King Of Kings

With Easter fast approaching, what better way to get into the holiday spirit than with two great video releases of Charlton Heston Presents The Bible and King Of Kings!













For the past 10 years, I've had the VHS collection of Charlton Heston Presents The Bible. Now, thanks to Warner Home Video, they have been released in DVD format. This is a timeless collection of Bible stories presented by The MAN, Charlron Heston. With his trademark voice, he narrates the beloved biblical stories on location in the Holy Land. The video quality is obviously much better than the VHS format, which was the only way to view it until now. It’s a fantastic set that I definitely recommend checking out.
















A classic film about the life of Jesus is out on Blu-ray, and it is good! Well, when I say good, I am referring to the amazing video quality of this old film remastered in Blu-ray format. The film itself is…. interesting. I must say the acting is a bit cheesy at times, but overall a movie that everyone should see at least once. It stays pretty close to the Biblical stories and does a pretty good job seeing what Jesus life possibly was like up close. Do yourself a favor and check this one out!

RAIN MAN on Blu-Ray

This is a film that really needs no introduction. A pivotal film in the 80’s, Rain Man is both a monumental film for the decade and the careers of Tom Cruise and Dustin Hoffman. This is a film that never gets old, no matter how many times you watch it. Since lately we’ve been on the topic of films getting rereleased on Blu-ray, now we get to see Rain Man. Seeing it in HD quality you notice right away the improvements such as clearer picture and audio. While it’s not the best I’ve seen on Blu-ray, I think they did a good job for this 80’s classic. Definitely worth your time to watch it again, especially with the extra features like commentaries, a documentary titled “The Journey of Rain Man”, and deleted scenes.
