My parents have a digital camcorder. A week long vacation with said camcorder, my parents, and their only grandchild produces a fair amount of raw footage. Before we headed back home after the vacation I wisely snapped up all the…

I had the distinct pleasure of seeing Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind the other day. Not really having heard anything about it, it was pretty much a case of “bah, the movie we really wanted to see isn’t on…
Oi, now that’s what I call a teaser: The first 5 minutes of Shrek 2 is available for viewing. And to no surprise picks up where the first movie left off and follows the same path with the same look,…
Seeing how I am currently playing through Final Fantasy VII to finally finish a game I first played 6 years ago and have restarted playing 6 or 7 times since, the news of a coming Final Fantasy movie are pretty…
The big news these days is naturally the US capture of Saddam Hussein. I can’t help it, but seeing the footage of Saddam undergoing medical examination by US doctors remind me of the scientists examining the Brain Bug after it’s…

I just finished watching the extended version of the Two Towers, and daaayamn, everything about this DVD is simply fantastic. The 40 minutes of extra footage makes an already amazing movie even better, and it almost makes it feel like…
Pixar strikes again. Finding Nemo is a great movie. The tale of daddy clownfish travelling through the ocean to find his lost son is catching, the characters are all fittingly fishy in their own unique ways, and the voice acting…
When Disney and Jerry Bruckheimer are among the names behind a movie, you are almost guaranteed 2 hours filled with action, fun and adventures. Pirates of the Carribean fully lives up to this guarantee. The swordfights and jokes are swift…
This addition to the ever-growing family of fast-cutting, wire-action, musicvideo-styled kind of action movies is a waste of time. Not even the cameos or the babe-factor of Cameron Diaz, Demi Moore, and Lucy Liu can make up for the incoherent…
And now, for no apparent reason, a list of my DVDs. Anyone know of a good website application for keeping track of such a list?…
Damn Jake of 8Bit Joystick.com! To me, Starship Troopers has always been the perfect no-brains-involved movie - perfect for when hung over. I enjoy the way Verhoeven manages to stear clear of every bit of sentimental, emotional substory in the…
Yeah yeah, the Matrix horse has been beaten to death by now, noone really knows what is happening and we won’t be able to tell eachother “See? I told you so” until later this year. But after having received my…
So I saw the movie last night, and I think it rocks. It may not be as philosophical as the first, the plot may be quite a bit confusing and the action may more or less be repeats of things…
And so it got to be Denmarks turn to experience Matrix Reloaded - well, in a little while it will at least. I managed to get a hold of a ticket to one of the first showings in the country,…
Americans suck - they get to see Matrix Reloaded now, while I have to wait a week before it opens in the danish cinemas. Bullocks. I don’t get that decision, why not launch at the same time worldwide? I can’t…
It’s May and it’s time for the final free Animatrix episode before The Big Bang: The Second Renaissance Part II. The 10 minute movie is a dark and grim depiction of the events that lead to the fall of…
Let’s see… Vampires, trenchcoats, slowmotion, swordfights, werewolves, gothic cityscapes, steam engines, female butts in tight leather pants, rain - Yup, Underworld looks very promising….
At a dinner during easter my cousins husband-to-be pointed out to me, that the MTV Music Award spoof of the council-scene from Fellowship of the Rings was accessible on the extended version DVD by following some obscure keypresses. He instructed…
Do I think that Matrix Reloaded is going to blow a fuse in every action-loving movie freak by overstimulating the endorphin eating part of their brains? Oh yes, I do……
Ick, I had forgotten about this - luckily my brother brought it to my attention. With the beginning of a new month comes the next freely availabe installment of the Animatrix: A Detective Story (I would love to link directly,…
March has arrived, as has the next chapter in the Animatrix, called “Program”. Apart from being a cool little flick, there isn’t really anything interesting or revolutionary about it. Some anime action in a Matrix-setting, shrug, go watch it….
The first installment of the Animatrix has been released. 9 minutes of animation documenting the initial, small uprise of the machines. Seems like 3 more parts will be released each month until Matrix Reloaded hits the cinemas. Enough of…
Biker boyz The Fast and the Furious meets Boyz N the Hood. The custom cars are replaced with custom motorcycles, Vin Diesel is replaced with Laurence Fishburne, the bitches and the bimbos are still there. “Biker boyz, we set our…
Die another day, The latest chapter in the tale of the never-aging, british agent James Bond delivers. It has everything I expect from a James Bond movie; Intense action, beautiful women, evil super-villains, and hightech devices. Pierce Brosnan makes a…
Somehow I’ve managed to be be ignorant to the fact that Quentin Tarantino is finishing up a new movie. Judging from the trailer, it looks like he’ll be going John Woo on Uma Thurmans ass, stepping away from his previous…
I just spotted that my favorite Flash animation, Ninjai, has been extended with a new chapter. If you haven’t seen Ninjai: The Little Ninja before, I highly recommend heading there and start from chapter 1. It is topnotch work,…
My littlebrother, Valdemar and Anders have all ganged up on me. The order for the extended version of Fellowship of the Rings have been placed, now go collect your provisions from Dvdoo….
For no apparent reason, I just want to point out the fact, that my ticket for the The Two Towers has been secured. Center seats, Imperial, 19th december, 21:40. Drool… On a related note, I am contemplating buying the extended…
I have a distinct feeling that Die Another Day, the new James Bond movie is going to be a hit….
What do five of the worlds biggest movie-companies; Sony Pictures, Warner Bros, Universal Pictures, Paramount Pictures and MGM, have in common? They apparently don’t care about their non-US customers: “We want you to take part in the powerful Internet movie…
Oh my… The ending credits for Fellowship of the Rings is slowly moving across my television. I had totally forgotten how awesome that movie is. The introduction alone almost makes it worth buying the entire DVD; Cate Blanchetts voice over…
Two Towers Trailer - ‘nuff said…
Wow. Last night I had the undivided pleasure to experience George Lucas’ most recent addition to the everexpanding Star Wars universe, Attack of the Clones. Every doubt I have had after the mediocre first prequel, was effectively put to shame….
Owning a DVD-player is ruining me. While preordering my DVD copy of Lord of the Rings - Fellowship of the Rings (that movie is so amazing), the DVD vendor managed to tempt me into visiting their area with special offers….
