The Reel Banditos – Indochina (CD)

The Reel Banditos are a unique act. Imagine if CCR mated with KMFDM and listeners will have some sort of clue what The Reel Banditos are doing during this EP. Where there are no vocals during this track, The Reel Banditos do a heck of a job creating an easy to follow narrative that is present at all points during this track. Their dedication to this sound continues through this…

Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull (Blu-Ray)

Pretty much everyone that I know went to see Kingdom of the Crystal Skull when it first came out, so I’ll dispense with a lot of the description of the film. Paramount has made one of the strongest cases that it could for the Blu-Ray format in its release of Kingdom on Blu-Ray, giving viewers a panoply of bonus features while providing a sharper picture and audio than could conceivably…

Lewis Black’s Root of All Evil (DVD)

It is so great to see that Lewis Black is allowed to shine as brightly as possible on this new Comedy Central show, which different comedians against own another, debating the merits and follies of specific groups (Youtube, PETA), ultimately deciding which of these groups possesses the title quality. The eight episodes that were present during the show’s first run (comprising those that aired between March and April of 2008)…

Despite the fact that the film is thirty years old, the picture is at the clearest level that it has ever been, showing a crispness that far outstrips any other film…

Spy Fox In Dry Cereal is the first chapter of the Spy Fox trilogy, which saw releases later on of subsequent chapters (“Some Assembly Required” and “Operation Ozone”). This first chapter has been released for the Nintendo Wii by Majesco, and the game itself has been given enough in the way of spit and polish to really make full use of the unique control system of the Wii. Majesco has…

Clean Slate 2007 Riesling

Throughout all of my youth and legal alcohol-drinking age, I had not found a single type of wine I liked until New Year rolled around last year. I had purchased a bottle of champagne (Korbel) and liked it, and moved into Verdi soon after. However, I still had my doubts about a more traditional type of wine, until Clean Slate’s 2007 Riesling came across the desk. The smooth mouth feel…
